General
This Website (the “Site”) is owned and operated by Content Buddy (“Content Buddy,” “we,” or “us”).
By using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and to use the Site by these Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, and any additional terms and conditions that may apply to specific sections of the Site or products and services available through the Site or from Content Buddy.
Accessing the Site, in any manner, whether automated or otherwise, constitutes use of the Site, and your Agreement is to be bound by these Terms of Service.
We reserve the right to change these Terms of Service or to impose new conditions on the use of the Site from time to time, in which case we will post the revised Terms of Service on this Website. You accept the Terms of Service as modified by continuing to use the Site after we post any such changes.
Intellectual Property Rights.
Our limited license to you.
This Site and all the materials available on the Site are our and our affiliate’s or licensors’ property and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. The Site is provided solely for your personal, noncommercial use.
You may not use the Site or the materials available on the Site in a manner that constitutes an infringement of our rights or that we have not authorized.
More specifically, unless explicitly authorized in these Terms of Service or by the owner of the materials, you may not modify, copy, reproduce, republish, upload, post, transmit, translate, sell, create derivative works, exploit, or distribute in any manner or medium (including by email or other electronic means) any material from the Site.
You may, however, from time to time, download and print one copy of individual pages of the Site for your personal, noncommercial use, provided that You keep all copyright and other proprietary notices intact.
Your license to us.
By posting or submitting any material (including, without limitation, comments, blog entries, Facebook postings, photos, and videos) to us via the Site, internet groups, social media venues, or to any of our staff via email, text, or otherwise, you are representing:
(i) that you are the owner of the material or are making your posting or submission with the express consent of the owner of the material; and
(ii) that you are thirteen years of age or older.
In addition, when you submit, email, text or deliver or post any material, you are granting us, and anyone authorized by us, a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, unrestricted, worldwide license to use, copy, modify, transmit, sell, exploit, create derivative works from, distribute, and publicly perform or display such material, in whole or in part, in any manner or medium, now known or hereafter developed, for any purpose.
The preceding grant shall include the right to exploit any proprietary rights in such posting or submission, including, but not limited to, rights under copyright, trademark, service mark, or patent laws under any relevant jurisdiction.
Also, in connection with exercising such rights, you grant us, and anyone authorized by us, the right to identify you as the author of any of your postings or submissions by name, email address, or screen name, as we deem appropriate.
You acknowledge and agree that any contributions you create for us shall be deemed “work made for hire” when the work performed is within the scope of the definition of work made for hire in Section 101 of the United States Copyright Law, as amended.
As such, the copyrights in those works shall belong to Content Buddy from their creation. Thus, Content Buddy shall be deemed the author and exclusive owner thereof and shall have the right to exploit any or all of the results and proceeds in any media, now known or hereafter devised, throughout the universe, in perpetuity, in all languages, as Content Buddy determines.
If any of the results and proceeds of your submissions hereunder are not deemed a “work made for hire” under Section 101 of the Copyright Act, as amended, you, at this moment, without additional compensation, irrevocably assign, convey, and transfer to Content Buddy all proprietary rights, including without limitation, all copyrights, and trademarks throughout the universe, in perpetuity in every medium, whether now known or hereafter devised, to such material and any rights, titles, and interest in and to all such proprietary rights in every medium, whether now known or hereafter devised, throughout the universe, in perpetuity.
Any posted material that is a reproduction of your prior works shall be co-owned by us.
You acknowledge that Content Buddy has the right but not the obligation to use and display any postings or contributions. Content Buddy may cease using and displaying any such materials (or any portion thereof) for any reason.
Limitations on Linking and Framing. You may establish a hypertext link to the Site so long as the link does not state or imply any sponsorship of your Site by us or the Site. However, without our prior written permission, you may not frame or inline link any of the Site’s content or incorporate any of our material, content, or intellectual property into another website or other service.
Disclaimers
We may provide links and pointers to Internet sites maintained by third parties throughout the Site. Our linking to such third-party sites does not imply an endorsement or sponsorship of such sites or the information, products, or services offered on or through the sites.
In addition, neither we nor our affiliates operate or control in any respect any information, products, or services that third parties may provide on or through the Site or on websites linked to by us on the Site.
If applicable, any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers, or other information or content expressed or made available by third parties, including information providers, are those of the respective authors or distributors and not Content Buddy. Neither Content Buddy nor any third-party information provider guarantees any content’s accuracy, completeness, or usefulness.
Furthermore, Content Buddy neither endorses nor is responsible for the accuracy and reliability of any opinion, advice, or statement made on any of the Sites by anyone other than an authorized Content Buddy representative while acting in their official capacity.
THE INFORMATION, PRODUCTS, AND SERVICES OFFERED ON OR THROUGH THE SITE AND BY Content Buddy AND ANY THIRD-PARTY SITES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE OR ANY OF ITS FUNCTIONS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT ANY PART OF THIS SITE, INCLUDING BULLETIN BOARDS OR THE SERVERS THAT MAKE THEM AVAILABLE IS FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
WE DO NOT WARRANT OR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING THE USE OR THE RESULTS OF THE USE OF THE SITE OR MATERIALS ON THIS SITE OR THIRD-PARTY SITES IN TERMS OF THEIR CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, TIMELINESS, RELIABILITY OR OTHERWISE.
You agree at all times to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Content Buddy, its affiliates, their successors, transferees, assignees, and licensees, and their respective parent and subsidiary companies, agents, associates, officers, directors, shareholders, and employees of each from and against any claims, causes of action, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including legal fees and expenses, arising out of or related to your breach of any obligation, warranty, representation, or covenant set forth herein.
Online commerce
Certain site sections may allow you to purchase many products and services online from third parties. We are not responsible for the quality, accuracy, timeliness, reliability, or other aspects of these products and services.
Suppose you purchase from a merchant on the Site or a site linked to the Site. In that case, the information obtained during your visit to that merchant’s online store or Site and the information you give as part of the transaction, such as your credit card number and contact information, may be collected by both the merchant and us.
A merchant may have privacy and data collection practices that are different from ours. We have no responsibility or liability for these independent policies.
In addition, when you purchase products or services on or through the Site, you may be subject to additional terms and conditions that specifically apply to your purchase or use of such products or services.
For more information regarding a merchant, its online store, its privacy policies, and any additional terms and conditions that may apply, visit that merchant’s Website and click on its information links, or contact the merchant directly.
You release us and our affiliates from any damages you incur and agree not to assert any claims against them or us arising from your purchase or use of any products or services made available by third parties through the Site.
Your participation, correspondence, or business dealings with any third party found on or through our Site regarding payment and delivery of specific goods and services, and any other terms, conditions, representations, or warranties associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such third party.
You agree that Content Buddy is not responsible or liable for any loss, damage, or other matters incurred due to such dealings.
You agree to be financially responsible for all purchases made by you or someone acting on your behalf through the Site.
You agree to use the Site and to purchase services or products through the Site for legitimate, noncommercial purposes only.
You also agree not to make any purchases for speculative, false, or fraudulent purposes or to anticipate demand for a particular product or service. You agree only to purchase goods or services for yourself or another person for whom you are legally permitted.
When purchasing from a third party that requires you to submit the third party’s personal information to us or a merchant, you represent that you have obtained the express consent of such third party to provide such third party’s personal information.
Your purchase is for personal use only. Sharing of purchases is not permitted and will be considered unauthorized, an infringing use of our copyrighted material, and may subject violators to liability.
If payment for a course is declined, our system will automatically restrict access to our premium materials. (We understand. This usually happens because a credit card expires.)
We want to help restore your access, so we’ll contact you to help resolve this issue. Once the billing issue is resolved, we’ll restore access.

In addition, we reserve the right to alter, edit, refuse to post or remove any postings or content, in whole or in part, for any reason and to disclose such materials and the circumstances surrounding their transmission to any third party to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request and to protect ourselves, our clients, sponsors, users, and visitors.
We occasionally include access to an online community in our programs. We want every member to add value to the group.

Other
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under the U.S. copyright law.
Suppose you believe in good faith that materials hosted by Content Buddy infringe on your copyright. In that case, you or your agent may send Content Buddy a notice requesting that the material be removed or its access be blocked.
Any notification by a copyright owner or a person authorized to act on its behalf that fails to comply with the requirements of the DMCA shall not be considered sufficient notice and shall not be deemed to confer upon Content Buddy actual knowledge of facts or circumstances from which infringing material or acts are evident.
If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send Content Buddy a counter-notice. All notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright for details. Content Buddy’s Copyright Agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement or counter notices can be reached at help@content-buddy.com.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Content Buddy and our respective assigns, successors, heirs, and legal representatives.
Neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned without the prior written consent of Content Buddy.
Notwithstanding the preceding, Content Buddy may freely assign all rights and obligations under this Agreement to any affiliated entity or wholly owned subsidiaries. These Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed by the laws of The United Kingdom, and any dispute shall be subject to binding arbitration in The United Kingdom.
Suppose any provision of this Agreement is unlawful, void, or unenforceable for any reason. In that case, that provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
Disclaimer
Although it is doubtful, this policy may be changed at any time at our discretion. If we update it, we will post the updates on this page on our Website.
