DiscoverMeLive, in its sole discretion, is entitled to remove any illegal or prohibited data and/or information from DiscoverMeLive web sites, without prior notice to User.
E. User acknowledges and agrees that it is virtually impossible to achieve continuous, uninterrupted availability of the DiscoverMeLive web sites. DiscoverMeLive shall nonetheless endeavor to keep DiscoverMeLive web sites available without interruption. Events related to maintenance, security or capacity requirements, and/or events beyond DiscoverMeLive 's control (e.g. disruptions in communication networks, power failures, equipment failure, etc.), may result in brief disruption or temporary interruption of the services provided on DiscoverMeLive web sites.
F. DiscoverMeLive provides the User with a platform on which to establish interaction and communication with other Users, and provides those technical applications that allow Users to interact and communicate with one another. Regarding web site posted content, DiscoverMeLive does not take part in any communication between Users. If Users enter into third-party agreements with other Users through use of the DiscoverMeLive web sites, it is understood and agreed by Users that DiscoverMeLive shall not be a contracting party, mediator or negotiator to these agreements. Users alone are responsible for the execution and/or fulfillment of any third-party agreements in which they enter with other Users. DiscoverMeLive shall not be held liable if Users are unable to contact one another over DiscoverMeLive web sites regarding such third-party agreements. Furthermore, DISCOVERMELIVE shall not be liable for breaches of duty in relation to third-party agreements entered into between Users or advertisers.
G. In the event that DiscoverMeLive Users have a disagreement with DiscoverMeLive advertisers, partners or third-party vendors or affiliates, DiscoverMeLive may merely act as intermediary in those cases and shall not be liable for any breach of such agreements entered into.
H. Any offers or agreements between DiscoverMeLive Users and DiscoverMeLive advertisers, partners, third-party vendors or affiliates, will be governed by such advertisers’, partners’, third-party vendors’ or affiliates’ respective Terms and Conditions and the Privacy Policies of their respective companies that carry out the complete transaction themselves and are a party to an agreement with, and serve as the contact for, the DiscoverMeLive User with whom they serve.
