("CareerVillage", "us", "we", or "our"), a United States 501c3 nonprofit organization. Please read these terms and conditions ("Agreement", "Terms", "Terms and Conditions") carefully before using the Network or any services provided on the Network (collectively, “Services”). Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with this Agreement. You may use the Service only if you can form a binding contract with CareerVillage, and only in compliance with this Agreement and all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules and regulations. This Agreement applies to all visitors, users and others who access or use the Services. By accessing or using the Services you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you disagree with any part of the Agreement then you may not access the Services.

Access

CareerVillage may provide the Services that are selected by you, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, solely for your own use, and not for the use or benefit of any third party. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization or entity (“Organization”), then you are agreeing to these Terms on behalf of that Organization and you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind the Organization to these Terms. In that case, “you”, “your”, and “User” refers to you and that Organization. Services shall include, but not be limited to, any services CareerVillage performs for you, as well as the offering of any Content on the Network.

CareerVillage will use reasonable efforts to ensure that the Network and Services are available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. However, there will be occasions when the Network and/or Services will be interrupted for maintenance, upgrades and repairs or due to failure of telecommunications links and equipment. Every reasonable step will be taken by CareerVillage to minimize such disruption where it is within CareerVillage’s reasonable control. You agree that neither CareerVillage nor the Network will be liable in any event to you or any other party for any suspension, modification, discontinuance or lack of availability of the Network, the service, any User Content, or other Content. CareerVillage retains the right to create limits on use and storage in its sole discretion at any time with or without notice. You shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining any equipment or ancillary services needed to connect to, access the Network or otherwise use the Services, including, without limitation, modems, hardware, software, and long distance or local telephone service. You shall be responsible for ensuring that such equipment or ancillary services are compatible with the Services.

Registration

As a condition to using Services, you may be required to register, select a password, and complete a profile. You shall provide CareerVillage with accurate, complete, and updated registration information, including your real name and e-mail address, when you create your account on the Network. Failure to do so shall constitute a breach of this Agreement, which may result in immediate termination of your account. You may not (a) select or use as a name a name of another person with the intent to impersonate that person; or (b) use as a name a name subject to any rights of a person other than you without appropriate authorization. CareerVillage reserves the right to refuse registration of, or cancel a user’s registration in its discretion.

You are responsible for safeguarding the password that you use to access the Service and for any activities or actions under your password. We encourage you to use "strong" passwords (that use a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols) with your account. CareerVillage will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this instruction.

No one under the age of 13 may provide any personal information to or on the Network (including, for example, a name, address, telephone number or email address).

CareerVillage may make available certain features and tools that permit certain Users (such as, for example, representatives of school districts, schools, teachers, youth programs, and other educators) to work with students and other Users through the Services in order to provide such students and other Users with educational services, and to review and evaluate learning achievements and progress of such students and other Users (each an “Educator”, “Teacher”, “Counselor”, “Educational Administrator”, or “Program Partner”). If you are an Educator, you must use CareerVillage’s Educator registration process when registering accounts on the Network. If you are an Educator you may not register accounts for other Users. In registering on the Network as an Educator you represent that you are an individual at least 18 years of age.

Termination

We may terminate, suspend, or limit the Services at any time, including the availability of a feature, database, or Content, without prior notice or liability, for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation if you breach the Terms. All provisions of the Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability.

Either party may terminate the Services at any time by notifying the other party by any means. Upon termination of your account, your right to use the Services, access the Network, and any Content will immediately cease. Termination of your access to and use of the Network and the Services shall not relieve you of any obligations arising or accruing prior to such termination or limit any liability which you otherwise may have to CareerVillage or the Network, including without limitation any indemnification obligations contained herein.

You understand and agree that the Services are provided to you on an "as is" and "as available" basis. Without limiting the foregoing, CareerVillage and its partners disclaim any warranties, express or implied, of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. Much of the Content of the Network is provided by and is the responsibility of the user or subscriber who posted the Content.

We make no warranty that the Services will meet your requirements or be available on an uninterrupted, secure, or error-free basis.
