Third-Party Websites

The Site provides links to third-party websites (“Third-Party Sites”) for specific purposes, such as making donations and scheduling activities. While We strive to provide accurate and quality information, We do not endorse any content on a Third-Party Site. We are not responsible for the content of any Third-Party Site, nor do we make any warranties or representations, express or implied, regarding the content (or the accuracy of such content) on any Third-Party Sites, and We shall have no liability of any nature whatsoever in relation to any of the foregoing. Visit Third-Party Sites at your own risk and take precautions when downloading files from this and all Third-Party Sites to protect your computer from viruses and other destructive programs. Your use of a Third-Party Site and the collection and use of your personal information at such site will be governed by the Third-Party Site’s terms of use and/or privacy policy, and not by this Agreement or the Privacy Policy of this Site. You should direct any concerns regarding the Third-Party Site to the Third-Party Site’s administrator or webmaster.

Disclaimer of Warranty

The Content provided on the Site is provided as a service to members of the public. Information presented on the Site and in newsletters provided by Us are provided for informational purposes only. No information presented on the Site or in Our Newsletter constitutes legal, financial, or medical advice, nor does it create an attorney–client, doctor–patient, fiduciary, or counseling relationship between Us and you or any other party. You acknowledge and agree that the Site and the Content therein are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. None of Us, any of our respective officers, directors, employees, agents, volunteers, contributors, or licensees (collectively the “Site Parties”) guarantees the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any of the Content on the Site or in Our newsletters. There are no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement.

None of the Site Parties warrants that the Site will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the Site, its server, or any files available for downloading through the Site are free of computer viruses or other harmful elements. You expressly agree that the entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Site and the accuracy or completeness of the Content is assumed solely by you.

None of the Site Parties makes any, and hereby specifically disclaims any, representations, endorsements, guarantees, or warranties, express or implied, regarding the Site, any Content, and Our newsletters, including without limitation, the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement of third-party rights. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all of the Site Parties disclaim any warranties with respect to any results that may be obtained from the use of the Site.

Limitation of Liability

Under no circumstances will any Site Parties be liable for any loss or damage caused by your reliance on information obtained through the Content on the Site, including without limitation any loss or damage caused by your reliance on information obtained from Third-Party Sites to which this Site is linked.

In no event shall any Site Parties be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising out of or relating to the Content, service, or the agreement, whether based on warranty, contract, tort, or any other legal theory.

Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for negligence, consequential, or incidental damages, in such jurisdictions, Site Parties’ liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

Your sole and exclusive remedy for dissatisfaction with the Site is to stop using the Site.

In the event that any portion of the Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the invalid or unenforceable portion shall be construed in accordance with the applicable law as nearly as possible to reflect the original intentions of the parties, and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The paragraph headings herein are provided only for reference and shall have no effect on the construction or interpretation of the Agreement. If We fail to enforce strict performance of any provision of the Agreement, such failure will not constitute a waiver of our right to subsequently enforce such provision or any other provision of the Agreement.
