Please read this Terms and Conditions Agreement; by using the Texas Wild Network (TWN) website, you accept its terms.

This Terms and Conditions Agreement applies to all of the websites where it is posted. Those websites are referred to collectively in this Terms and Conditions Agreement as the "Sites." Additional terms and conditions may apply to some services offered on the Sites. Such terms and conditions may be found at the place where the relevant service is offered.

 
The Web is an evolving medium; we may change the terms of this Terms and Conditions Agreement from time to time. By continuing to use any of the Sites after we post any such changes, you accept this Terms and Conditions Agreement, as modified. We may change, restrict access to, suspend or discontinue the Sites, or any portion of the Sites, at any time. TWN respects the privacy of our users. Please take a few minutes to review our Privacy Policy.
If you disagree with any material you find on the Sites, we recommend that you respond by noting your disagreement in an appropriate site forum where there is one. We also invite you to bring to our attention any material you believe to be factually inaccurate by contacting us at http://texaswildnetwork.com/contact-us/contacts/index.php

The material that appears on the Sites is for informational and entertainment purposes only. Despite our efforts to provide useful and accurate information, errors may appear from time to time. Before you act on information you've found on the Sites, you should confirm any facts that are important to your decision. TWN and its information providers make no warranty as to the reliability, accuracy, timeliness, usefulness or completeness of the information on the Sites. TWN is not responsible for, and cannot guarantee the performance of, goods and services provided by our advertisers or others to whose sites we link. A link to another website does not constitute an endorsement of that site (nor of any product, service or other material offered on that site) by TWN or its licensors.

COMMUNITY AND SOCIAL MEDIA SITES, CHAT ROOMS, FORUMS, AND BLOGS
TWN wants to encourage an open exchange of information and ideas through the Sites. But we cannot and do not review every posting made on TWN's community and social media sites, or in chat rooms, forums, blogs, and other public posting areas. You can expect these areas to include content, information, and opinions from a variety of individuals and organizations other than TWN. We do not endorse or guarantee the accuracy of any posting, regardless of whether the posting comes from a user, from a celebrity or "expert" guest, or from a member of our staff. There is no substitute for healthy skepticism and your own good judgment.

Responsibility for what is posted on TWN's community and social media sites, or in chat rooms, forums, blogs and other public posting areas on the TWN Sites lies with each user -- you alone are responsible for material you post. TWN does not control the messages, information or other content that you or others may provide through the Sites. You may use the Sites for lawful purposes only.

By using the TWN Sites, you agree not to submit, post or transmit through the Sites any material or otherwise engage in any conduct that:

• Impersonates any person, business or entity, including TWN and its employees and agents or falsely state or otherwise misrepresent your affiliation with any person, business or entity, including TWN;
• Contains an advertisement or solicitation or encourages others to make a donation;
• Contains viruses or any other computer code, files or programs that interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment, or otherwise permit the unauthorized use of a computer or computer network;
• Encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense or that gives rise to civil liability or that otherwise encourages others to commit illegal activities or cause injury or property damage to any other person;
• Results in the posting or transmission of any message anonymously or under a false name;
• Permits any person to access, using your account, any features of the Sites that may require registration;
• Results in a single message being posted to more than five areas of any TWN Site, results in any message being posted to any area of the Sites if that message is, in our view, off-topic or in violation of this Terms and Conditions Agreement; or
• Violates these Terms of Use, guidelines or any policy posted on the Sites, or interferes with the use of the Sites by others.

Although TWN cannot monitor all content on TWN's community and social media sites, or postings in the chat rooms, forums, blogs and other public posting areas, you understand that TWN shall have the right, but not the obligation, to monitor the content of the TWN Sites to determine compliance with this Terms and Conditions Agreement and any other operating rules that may be established by TWN from time to time. TWN shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to edit, move, delete, or refuse to post any material, including but not limited to Video Submissions, submitted to or posted on the TWN Sites for any reason, including violation of these Terms of Use, whether for legal or other reasons, or because the material is objectionable or stale. Notwithstanding this right of ours, users shall remain solely responsible for the content of their messages and Video Submissions. You acknowledge and agree that neither TWN nor any of its affiliates shall assume or have any liability for any action or inaction by TWN with respect to any conduct within the TWN Sites or any communication or posting on the TWN Sites. TWN also reserves the right to disclose any information that TWN believes necessary to satisfy any law, regulation or governmental request, or to refuse to post or to remove any information or materials, in whole or in part.

TWN requires you not to use the TWN Sites to violate anyone's copyright, trademark or other intellectual property rights. By posting or submitting any material (including, without limitation, photographs and videos) to the TWN Sites, you are warranting and representing that you own or have the right to post or make such submission of the material, or are making your submission or posting with the express consent of the owner, and that no other party has any right, claim, or interest in the material that you have submitted or posted. You also warrant that all moral rights in any material that you submit to us or post have been waived. Submitting or posting material that is the property of another, without the consent of its owner, is not only a violation of this Terms and Conditions Agreement, but may also subject you to legal liability for infringement of copyright, trademark or other intellectual property rights.

USE OF MATERIALS
With the exception of any and all Video Submissions (TWN's permitted use of which is discussed above) and any material posted on TWN's community and social media sites, all other material you submit to any of our chat rooms, forums, blogs and other public posting areas, whether text or images, becomes the property of TWN and may be reproduced, modified and distributed as we see fit, in any medium, for any purpose and in perpetuity.

The foregoing grant shall include the right to exploit any proprietary rights in such posting or submission, including, but not limited to, rights under copyright, trademark, service mark or patent laws under any relevant jurisdiction. Also, in connection with the exercise of such rights, you grant TWN, and anyone authorized by TWN, the right to identify you as the author of any of your postings or submissions by name, email address or screen name, as TWN deems appropriate. Please also note the last paragraph in the "COMMUNITY AND SOCIAL MEDIA SITES, CHAT ROOMS, FORUMS, AND BLOGS" section above.

YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE TWN SITES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK.

MISCELLANEOUS
The TWN staff works hard to ensure that information we post to the TWN Sites is both timely and accurate. But the news changes over time and reports that were accurate when posted may quickly become old news. Though we may post follow-up reports, and may continue to provide access to the original report, as in an archive of news stories, for example, we don't go back and change the original report to reflect new developments. If you're looking for the most recent information on a given subject, and not the history of how the story unfolded, be sure you're not looking at an out-of-date report.

To obtain access to certain services on the TWN Sites, you may be given an opportunity to register with the TWN Sites. As part of any such registration process, you will select a user name and a password. You agree that the information you supply during that registration process will be accurate and complete. You also agree not to (i) select, register, or attempt to register, or use a user name of another person with the intention of impersonating that person; (ii) use a user name of anyone else without authorization; (iii) use a user name in violation of the intellectual property rights of any person; or (iv) use a user name that TWN considers to be offensive. TWN reserves the right to reject or terminate any user name or password that, in its judgment, it deems offensive. You will be responsible for preserving the confidentiality of your password and will notify TWN of any known or suspected unauthorized use of your account. Further, you agree that you are responsible for all statements made and acts or omissions that occur on your account while your password is being used. If you believe someone has used your password or account without your authorization, you must notify TWN immediately.
