Welcome to ApartmentRatings.com! This User Agreement (the "Agreement") describes the terms on which ApartmentRatings.com, a division of Internet Brands, Inc. ("ApartmentRatings") offers you an account on the Web site located at www.ApartmentRatings.com (the "Site"). BY REGISTERING FOR AN ACCOUNT, YOU INDICATE YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS TERMS AND ANY MODIFICATIONS THAT MAY BE MADE TO THE AGREEMENT OR ITS TERMS FROM TIME TO TIME. All uses of your account are governed by this Agreement. ApartmentRatings shall not be liable to you for any breach of the terms of this Agreement. If you have any questions about your obligations under this Agreement, email staff@aptratings.com. If you are under 13, ApartmentRatings may not receive Content from you; please do not post to the Site. By posting Content on the Site, you represent that you are 13 years of age or older. 1. Modifications To Terms Of Agreement. ApartmentRatings reserves the right to revise, amend or modify the terms of this Agreement (the "Terms") at any time and in any manner at its sole discretion. Notice of any revision, amendment or modification of the Terms will be posted in this section of the Site, and any such revisions, amendment, or modifications will be effective upon the posting of such notice. Continued use of the Site by you constitutes your binding acceptance of such revisions, amendments, and modifications. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Site. Please check this section of the Site before using the Site to determine whether a change has been made to these Terms. If you do not agree to any changes in the Terms as they may occur, please arrange to terminate your registration with the Site immediately (i) by notifying ApartmentRatings of your unwillingness to accept the changes to the Terms by emailing staff@aptratings.com; and (ii) by discontinuing your use of the Site. Your continued use of the Site will signify your acceptance of any change in the Terms set forth herein. From time to time ApartmentRatings may supplement these Terms with additional terms ("Additional Terms"). You understand and agree that such Additional Terms are hereby incorporated by reference into these Terms. 2. Submission Of Content. a. DEFINITION. ApartmentRatings allows you to provide a review in the form of an opinion about apartment rentals (an "Opinion") and a question, answer or comment about apartment rentals and other topics (“Discussion Content”). The Opinion, Discussion Content and any photographs, videos, and other materials you provide to ApartmentRatings (by uploading such Content to the Site or otherwise) is defined as your "Content." b. LICENSE. You retain all rights of ownership to your Content. By submitting Content to the Site, you grant to ApartmentRatings a royalty-free, perpetual license to display and reproduce your Content online and offline and permit others (including without limitation., syndication, co-brand and content partners) to do the same. You are free to use your Content offline in any manner you choose. However, ApartmentRatings attracts visitors to the Site by promising users high-quality content they can't get anywhere else. In order to sustain this traffic draw, by submitting Content to the Site, you grant to ApartmentRatings (and its sublicensees) the exclusive right to display your Content anywhere online, except for the following circumstances: i) You may post your Opinions and/or Discussion Content on USENET newsgroups. If you do so, you must include the following attribution: "You can read this review information at http://www.ApartmentRatings.com." ii) You may also display your Opinion and/or Discussion Content on any site which contains content contributed from 9 individual contributors or less, but you must include the following attribution in the display: "You can read this information at http://www.ApartmentRatings.com" iii) You may display your Opinion and/or Discussion Content in a forum other than those described above with express written consent from ApartmentRatings. To request additional online rights to your Opinion and/or Discussion Content, you may email staff@aptratings.com. ApartmentRatings reserves the right to grant or deny permission on a case-by-case basis as ApartmentRatings deems appropriate in its sole discretion. In all other cases, ApartmentRatings' exclusive display and reproduction rights apply even if you initially post the Opinion and/or Discussion Content somewhere else online and then desire to post it to the Site; such dual posting is not permitted, although if you have the right to do so, you may be able to delete the Opinion and/or Discussion Content from the other site and then repost it on the Site (you should check with the site where you initially posted the Opinion and/or Discussion Content to determine if this is permissible). (For purposes of this section, the word "display" covers all copyright and other intellectual property rights necessary to effectuate the foregoing intent.) c. PURSUIT OF INFRINGERS. If ApartmentRatings identifies someone who is displaying your Content online in violation of this Agreement and ApartmentRatings wishes to take action against the infringer, ApartmentRatings may contact you to seek your help with the action. However, ApartmentRatings may also directly enforce your ownership rights in the Content against the infringer, and you authorize ApartmentRatings to take any actions on your behalf that ApartmentRatings reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to protect the parties' respective rights. If ApartmentRatings decides to sue the infringer, (1) ApartmentRatings may join you as a co-plaintiff to the action, and (2) any resulting damages or settlements attributable to online uses of your Content shall be solely ApartmentRatings'. d. REMOVAL OF CONTENT. Currently, ApartmentRatings allows you to edit and delete your Content. At any time, without further notice, ApartmentRatings may restrict your ability to edit or delete your Content. Please note that, irrespective of the foregoing, ApartmentRatings may not be able to propagate changes you make to the Content to the corresponding version being displayed somewhere other than on the Site. Even if you delete your Content from the Site, the provisions of Section 2(b) still apply. Thus, once you've posted Content to the Site, you may not post the Content anywhere else online (other than as permitted in Section 2(b)) without ApartmentRatings' permission, even if you delete it from the Site. e.
