SUBMISSIONS
FLAC is pleased to hear from its customers and welcomes your comments regarding FLAC products and services, including this Site. Unfortunately, however, FLAC's long-standing company policy does not allow it to accept or consider creative ideas (including stories, character ideas, screenplays, and original artwork, etc.), suggestions, or materials other than those it has specifically requested (see below). While we value your feedback, we request that you be specific in your comments regarding our services and products, and that you not submit any creative ideas, suggestions, or materials. It is the intent of this policy to avoid the possibility of future misunderstandings when projects developed by FLAC's or its affiliates' professional staff might seem to others to be similar to their own creative work.
If, at our request, you send or post (e.g., via message boards or contests) certain specific submissions, or, despite our request that you not send us any creative ideas, suggestions or other materials, you do so (collectively, the "Submissions"), the Submissions shall be deemed, and shall remain, the exclusive property of FLAC. None of the Submissions shall be subject to any obligation of confidence on the part of FLAC, and FLAC shall not be liable for any use or disclosure of any Submissions. Without limitation of the foregoing, FLAC shall exclusively own the copyright and all now known or hereafter existing rights to the Submissions of every kind and nature, in perpetuity, throughout the universe, and FLAC shall be entitled to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, license, create derivative works from and distribute such materials or incorporate such Submissions into any form, medium, or technology now known or later developed throughout the universe, for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise, without compensation to those who provide the Submissions. In addition, you warrant that your Submissions do not violate any person's so-called "moral rights" or other similar or analogous rights under any applicable laws in any country or region of the world. Applicable law may restrict or limit the foregoing provisions of this paragraph. If so, without limitation of the foregoing, you agree that, in no event, shall FLAC's total liability exceed US$2,000.00.
You agree to indemnify FLAC for any and all claims, damages, losses, and causes of action arising as a result of your Submissions or your failure to comply with the TOU. FLAC does not and cannot review all Submissions and is not responsible for the content or substance of these Submissions. However, FLAC reserves the right to delete, move, or edit Submissions that it, in its sole discretion, deems to be abusive, defamatory, obscene, in violation of copyright or trademark laws, or in violation of any person's rights of privacy or publicity, or otherwise unacceptable.
Please refer to the GUIDELINES FOR USE OF THE SERVICES below for additional information concerning Submissions.
FLAC SERVICES AND RULES FOR USE
As a convenience to its visitors, FLAC may provide, from time to time and at its sole discretion, one or more Services, such as chat areas, message boards, e-mail functions, instant messaging service, voice-mail, file communities, polls, surveys, and other services. These Services are provided by FLAC to you and others subject to the TOU, the Guidelines set forth below, the Privacy Policy, and other rules that may be published from time to time (collectively, the "Rules") by FLAC. FLAC currently provides the Services free of charge to users who agree to be bound and abide by the Rules. FLAC reserves the right to change the nature of this relationship at any time.
If FLAC provides downloadable mobile entertainment content, such as ringtones, games, graphics, news and other information data via the Internet, SMS, MMS, WAP, BREW, IVR and other means of mobile content delivery to certain compatible mobile devices, the cell phone service provider is not responsible for the content, the service, or any advertising therein contained. Such services may involve charges in favor of FLAC or your cell phone service provider. It is your responsibility to verify that the content is compatible with your phone. Marks, passwords and content are subject to change without notice. Download time may vary depending on congestion of the cell phone service provider’s network. These services are for entertainment purposes only and interpretation and use is exclusively your responsibility. All charges are automatic and cannot be invalidated because of an error in the code sent. When applicable and subject to your cell phone service provider, charges will apply for WAP usage for data transmissions per download and WAP navigation. Your phone must be WAP compatible and configured correctly for image (wallpapers screensavers) and ringtone (real music, polifónicos, crazytones, real sounds, voice-tones) downloads.
REGISTRATION AND ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
In consideration for your use of the Services, you agree to (i) comply with the Rules, (ii) provide accurate, complete and true information about yourself as may be required on any registration form for Services (your "Registration Information") in order to create your User Account, and (iii) maintain and update, as applicable, your Registration Information with current and complete information. Users who violate the Rules, or provide inaccurate, false, or non-current Registration Information may, at FLAC’s sole discretion, have their User Accounts suspended or terminated, and may be permanently banned from using any current or future Services.
As part of your User Account, you will be responsible for creating, and maintaining the confidentiality of, your user name and password. We ask that you select a user name other than your real name or the real name of any other person. We also urge you to memorize your password or keep it in a secure place, away from the rest of your User Account information, as sharing your password with others may lead to unauthorized access to your User Account and the information therein. You agree that you will (i) immediately notify FLAC of any unauthorized use of your User Account, and (ii) ensure that you properly exit all Services at the completion of your use session. FLAC shall have no liability for any loss or damage arising from your use of a User Account, the Site or any Service, or your failure to comply with these requirements.
GUIDELINES FOR USE OF THE SERVICES
You are entirely responsible and liable for all activities conducted by you, and/or any other user of your User Account and of the Services, including the transmission, posting, or other provision of text, files, links, software, photographs, video, sound, music or other information or material ("Posted Content") to any portion of the Services. Listed below are some, though not all, violations that may result in FLAC terminating or suspending your User Account and/or access to FLAC Services. You agree not to do any of the following actions while using any FLAC Service:
- Harass, threaten, embarrass or cause distress or discomfort upon another Service participant, user, or other individual or entity;
- Transmit, in connection with any Service, any Posted Content that FLAC, in its sole discretion, considers to be disruptive, unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, hateful, or racially or ethnically-motivated, or otherwise objectionable;
- Cause any chat room screen in any chat room to "scroll" faster than other users are able to type to it or any action of a similar disruptive effect;
- Impersonate in any Service, any person, including but not limited to, a FLAC official or representative, chat or message board leader, guide or host;
- Disrupt the normal flow of dialogue in a chat room or otherwise act in a manner that negatively affects other participants;
