TERMS OF SERVICE Welcome to the TalentWatch.net ("TalentWatch" or "Website"). TalentWatch provides its services to you subject to the provisions of these Terms of Service ("TOS"). By using this Website or viewing the content herein you accept and agree to be bound by these TOS and each of its provisions. This is a legally binding agreement between you and TalentWatch, so please read it carefully. If you do not agree to these TOS, please do not use TalentWatch. Eligibility All Users of this Website must be 14 years of age or older. If you do not so qualify, do not attempt to use TalentWatch. Your User account and your User-Generated Content (as defined below) may be deleted without warning if we believe that you are under 14 years of age. If you are an Artist who is under the age of 18, you must also have parental consent before you can join TalentWatch as an Artist. Your TalentWatch Account Whether an Artist or a Fan, in order to have the full TalentWatch experience and to access certain features on the Website, you will have to create a User account. In creating a User account, we ask that you must provide complete and accurate information about yourself in order to bolster your credibility as a contributor to the Website, though you may opt instead to provide information that does not make you personally identifiable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not impersonate someone else (e.g., adopt the identity of a celebrity or your next-door neighbor), provide an email address other than your own, or create multiple User accounts and profiles. If you have created a User account with TalentWatch, you are responsible for the security of your account and password. You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur in connection with your account, whether or not the use is unauthorized. In addition, you agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account. We reserve the right to close your account and remove any content submitted by you at any time for any or no reason. License for Personal Use We grant you a limited license and permission to access and make personal use of TalentWatch but not to download or copy any portion of its content for any commercial purpose or to modify any portion of it, except with our written or e-mailed consent. This license does not include any resale or commercial use of TalentWatch or its content; any collection or use of "User-Generated Content" (as described below); any derivative use of TalentWatch or its contents; or any use of data mining, robots or similar data gathering or extraction tools or processes; and you agree not to do any of the foregoing. Except as explicitly provided in these TOS, you agree not to store in any form, distribute, transmit, display, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, sell or otherwise exploit any of the content of any portion of TalentWatch for any commercial purpose. You may display and occasionally print a single copy of pages of TalentWatch for your personal, non-commercial use, but you may not otherwise reproduce any material appearing on TalentWatch (other than your own "User-Generated Content," as described below) without our prior written consent. Requests for permission to reproduce or distribute materials found on the Website should be sent to info@talentwatch.net. You may not use our name nor any misspelling or typographical variation of TalentWatch, whether alone or in conjunction with any other word or phrase, trademarks or service marks in any manner (including use in any metatags or any other "hidden text") without our prior written or e-mailed consent. Any violation of the foregoing will terminate the permission and license granted by us to access and make use of TalentWatch. User-Generated Content TalentWatch user account holders who sign up as Artists may submit video content, audio content and textual content while TalentWatch user account holders who sign up as Fans may only submit textual content in the form of comments (collectively "User-Generated Content"). You understand that whether or not such User-Generated Content is published, TalentWatch does not guarantee any confidentiality with respect to any User-Generated Content. You agree that your User-Generated Content intended for display on TalentWatch will not include any content that is illegal, indecent, profane (including masked profanity where symbols, initials, intentional misspellings or other characters are used to suggest profane language), defamatory, invasive of privacy or otherwise injurious to third parties; and that it will not consist of or contain software viruses, political campaigning, commercial solicitation, chain letters, mass mailings or any form of "spam." You may not use a false e-mail address, impersonate any person or entity, or otherwise mislead as to the origin of your User-Generated Content. In additional to the restrictions described above, you may not submit User-Generated Content that infringes in any manner on the copyright, trademark or other intellectual property rights of any person or entity, or that contains any confidential or proprietary information of any person or entity, or that otherwise violates the legal rights of any person or entity. TalentWatch will remove all User-Generated Content if properly notified that such User-Generated Content infringes on another's intellectual property rights. Furthermore, you cannot use TalentWatch to threaten, stalk, defraud, incite, harass, or advocate the harassment of another person, or otherwise interfere with another User's use of the Website; promote bigotry or discrimination against protected classes; transmit or post pornography or illegal content; use any robot, spider, site search/retrieval application, or other automated device, process or means to access, retrieve, scrape, or index the Website or any content on TalentWatch; take any action that imposes or may impose an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on TalentWatch's technology infrastructure; or violate any applicable laws. You are solely responsible for and assume all risks associated with your User-Generated Content. This includes any reliance on its accuracy, completeness or usefulness by others, or any disclosure by you of information in your User-Generated Content that makes you personally identifiable. You represent that you own, or have the necessary permissions to use, and authorize TalentWatch to use your User-Generated Content as described herein. TalentWatch does not endorse any User-Generated Content or any opinion, recommendation, or advice expressed therein, and TalentWatch expressly disclaims any and all liability in connection with User-Generated Content.

You also hereby grant each User of TalentWatch a non-exclusive license to access your User-Generated Content through the Website, and to use, reproduce, distribute and display such User-Generated Content as permitted through the functionality of the Website and under these TOS.

You understand and agree, however, that TalentWatch may retain, but not display or distribute, server copies of this User-Generated Content that have been removed or deleted. The above licenses granted by you with respect to your User-Generated Content comments are perpetual and irrevocable.
