1. Your VolunteerRescue Account and Service
You are fully responsible for all activities that occur under the account and any other actions taken in connection with the Service. You must not create content in a misleading or unlawful manner, including in a manner intended to trade on the name or reputation of others, and SKRPC may change or remove any content that it considers inappropriate or unlawful, or otherwise likely to cause SKRPC liability. You must immediately notify SKRPC of any unauthorized uses of the Service, your account or any other breaches of security. SKRPC will not be liable for any acts or omissions by You, including any damages of any kind incurred as a result of such acts or omissions.
2. Responsibility of Contributors
If you post material to the Service, post links on the Service, or otherwise make (or allow any third party to make) material available by means of the Service (any such material, “Content”), You are entirely responsible for the content of, and any harm resulting from, that Content. That is the case regardless of whether the Content in question constitutes text, graphics, an audio file, or computer software. By making Content available, you represent and warrant that:
By submitting Content to SKRPC for inclusion on the Service, you grant SKRPC a world-wide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, modify, adapt and publish the Content solely for the purpose of displaying, distributing and promoting your Service. If you delete Content, SKRPC will use reasonable efforts to remove it from the Service, but you acknowledge that caching or references to the Content may not be made immediately unavailable.
Without limiting any of those representations or warranties, SKRPC has the right (though not the obligation) to, in SKRPC's sole discretion (i) refuse or remove any content that, in SKRPC's reasonable opinion, violates any SKRPC policy or is in any way harmful or objectionable, or (ii) terminate or deny access to and use of the Service to any individual or entity for any reason, in SKRPC's sole discretion. SKRPC will have no obligation to provide a refund of any amounts previously paid.
3. Responsibility of Service Visitors
SKRPC has not reviewed, and cannot review, all of the material, including computer software, posted to the Service, and cannot therefore be responsible for that material’s content, use or effects. By operating the Service, SKRPC does not represent or imply that it endorses the material there posted, or that it believes such material to be accurate, useful or non-harmful. You are responsible for taking precautions as necessary to protect yourself and your computer systems from viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and other harmful or destructive content. The Service may contain content that is offensive, indecent, or otherwise objectionable, as well as content containing technical inaccuracies, typographical mistakes, and other errors. The Service may also contain material that violates the privacy or publicity rights, or infringes the intellectual property and other proprietary rights, of third parties, or the downloading, copying or use of which is subject to additional terms and conditions, stated or unstated. SKRPC disclaims any responsibility for any harm resulting from the use by visitors of the Service, or from any downloading by those visitors of content there posted.
4. Content Posted on Other Websites

By linking to a non Service website or webpage, SKRPC does not represent or imply that it endorses such website or webpage. You are responsible for taking precautions as necessary to protect yourself and your computer systems from viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and other harmful or destructive content. SKRPC disclaims any responsibility for any harm resulting from your use of non Service websites and webpages.
5. Copyright Infringement
As SKRPC asks others to respect its intellectual property rights, it respects the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that material located on or linked to by the Service violates your copyright, you are encouraged to notify SKRPC. SKRPC will respond to all such notices, including as required or appropriate by removing the infringing material or disabling all links to the infringing material. SKRPC will terminate a visitor’s access to and use of the Service if, under appropriate circumstances, the visitor is determined to be a repeat infringer of the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of SKRPC or others. In the case of such termination, SKRPC will have no obligation to provide a refund of any amounts previously paid to SKRPC.
