By accessing (other than to read these terms and conditions for the first time) or using any of the Domains, you agree to and accept the following terms and conditions of access and use.

1. GENERAL

a. Agreement Binding:
The pages, facilities, services, and capabilities of or accessible through the Domains (the “Service”) provided by Chester Fried are designed to let you (the “End User”) and others communicate with Chester Fried and access data, information, tools, services, and other materials (all of this material is collectively called the “Content”). In some cases you may be able to create and publish original materials, such as through bulletin boards and discussion forums; such materials are also Content. This agreement (“Agreement”), together with any other Restricted Access Policies provided to you (by pop-up, agreement, logon notice, mail, or otherwise) and Restricted Access Agreements, sets out the terms and conditions of access to and use of the Service. This Agreement shall supersede any subsequent terms or conditions of any purchase order issued to Chester Fried by End User with respect to goods or services offered on or through the Service, regardless of whether such order is signed by Chester Fried. End User agrees that it may be necessary or prudent within Chester Fried’s sole discretion to revise, amend, or supplement this Agreement from time to time. A printed version of this Agreement and of notice given in electronic form, if any, shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this Agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.

b. Digital Millennium Copyright.
Agent for Notice of Claimed Copyright Infringement:
Chester Fried respects the intellectual property rights of authors. To assist copyright owners, Chester Fried has appointed an agent to receive notifications of claims of copyright infringement regarding materials available or accessible on, through, or in connection with our services. Any person authorized to act for a copyright owner may notify us of such claims by contacting the following Agent: Webmaster at Gilesent.com and providing all relevant information, including the elements of notification set forth in 17 U.S.C. 512, and most particularly, Section 512(c)(3)(A). The contact information for the Agent is also available from the Register of Copyrights.

c. Monitoring and Control of Material:
Use, posting, transmission, modification, display, and copying of Content is solely the responsibility and risk of the End User. Chester Fried reserves the right, but undertakes no commitment, to monitor or otherwise review the Content available or accessible on, through, or in connection with this site. Chester Fried has adopted and implemented a policy of terminating the accounts of those that are or in the judgment of Chester Fried appear to be repeat infringers of the copyright rights of others. Additionally, this site will accommodate and will not interfere with standard technical measures of copyright owners to identify or protect their copyrighted works. Without limitation, this may mean that materials accessed or posted by you will be subject to the scrutiny of such standard technical measures. We may not exercise control over these measures, and do not guarantee the privacy of your information against such scrutiny. If Chester Fried receives actual notice of infringement, or a notification complying with 17 U.S.C. 512(c)(3) from a copyright owner’s authorized representative, Chester Fried may remove or disable access to infringing materials. Chester Fried also reserves the right to remove or disable materials if, in Chester Fried’s sole judgment, the material is likely to infringe the rights of a third party, whether or not actual notice or 512(c)(3) notice has been received. Notices and opportunity to respond will be provided where required by law, but Chester Fried undertakes no obligation to provide notices other than as legally required.

2. ACCESS AND ACTIVITY

a. Open Areas and Password Areas:
Some areas of the Service may be accessible without password access control (“Open Areas”). End User may be assigned a password or access code (“Password”) in order to access, to view, and to use some aspects of the Service (“Password Areas”) and, if applicable, to upload Content onto the Service. To the extent that Chester Fried possesses both the right to the use, display, distribute, copy, alter, or publicly perform and the right to authorize such acts with respect to the Content and the Service, the following limited licenses apply: (1) in Open Areas, Chester Fried grants to End Users accepting this Agreement a personal, nonexclusive, nonassignable and nontransferable license to use and display Content and to access and to use the Service; and (2) in Password Areas, the issuance of any Password by Chester Fried shall operate as a personal, nonexclusive, nonassignable and nontransferable license to use and display Content and to access and to use the Service in the Password Areas, within the scope of access and use supported by the Password in the course of normal web browsing, during the session for which the Password is accepted only; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not authorize any activity or access that is otherwise indicated in writing by Chester Fried to be unauthorized, whether by this Agreement, or a separate document or communication from Chester Fried (such as pop-up, e-mail or postal mail). In addition to the limited authorization provided above, End User may make a single hard-copy printout, for internal use only (with no right of distribution) of Chester Fried-authored Content.

b. Express Limitations
The terms of any Restricted Access Policy notified to you by Chester Fried (by pop-up window, mail, e-mail, or other communication) are incorporated herein by reference. A list of Restricted Access Policies and the websites to which they apply is available by a link at the bottom of this page. All copying, distribution, publication, use, public display, or public performance not specifically authorized by this Agreement is prohibited unless done with the express written permission of Chester Fried and the owner of the material. In particular, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, End User acknowledges and agrees that the following provisions apply to all Content (including without limitation all facts, data and original, creative works) made available on or through the Service, and that the making available or compiling Content, or other services and facilities of the Service each comprise good and sufficient consideration for End User’s promise to refrain from any acts that would otherwise be unprohibited by the laws of copyright, trade secret, patent or any other law:

1. In any copying, redistribution, or publication of copyrighted material, any changes to or deletion of author attribution or copyright notice are prohibited. End User assumes all risks regarding the determination of whether any Content is the subject of copyright, is in the public domain, or is otherwise subject to limitations by contract or law.
2. Software accessible by or on the Service may not be reverse engineered unless specifically authorized by the owner of the software.
3. As a condition of End User’s use of the Service, End User represents and warrants to Chester Fried that End User will not use the Service for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by this Agreement.
4. End User may not use the Service in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair the Service or interfere with any other entity's use and enjoyment of the Service.
5. End User may not download, access, copy, decompile, compile, manipulate, or otherwise obtain or use any of the data, information, or other Content made available on or through the Service for any purposes other than End User’s individual evaluation of discrete Content for the purposes for which it is provided by Chester Fried.
6. End User may not resell, display, distribute, sublicense access to (whether or not any of such act are for commercial gain or advantage), or take any commercial actions with any Content or portion of the Content, regardless of whether such content comprises facts or original or creative content.

   Any activities taken in violation of this paragraph 2b by End User (or End User’s representatives or those acting with End User’s Password or consent) automatically void any license provided by this Agreement or that may otherwise be implied or expressly granted.

c. Limitations and Obligations Regarding Password
End User agrees to maintain all Passwords as private and confidential information. End User’s Password and any authorization thereunder may not be transferred, leased, assigned, or sublicensed without Chester Fried’s prior written consent.

End User further agrees to notify Chester Fried immediately upon discovery or suspicion of compromise of the confidentiality of the End User’s Password and of any change in contact information. End User shall be solely responsible for securing the Password and preventing misuse or unauthorized use of the password, including by former employees. The support of Passwords by Chester Fried and the Service is not a representation that information published and designated for access only by certain passwords, password types, or password levels is guaranteed confidential or private or that it is accessible only to such designated passwords, password types, and password levels. End User acknowledges that no password or electronic security system is foolproof and that information will be at least accessible and reviewable according to Section 3b and 3c and the Website Privacy Policy. End User agrees not to rely upon the password system to protect or limit distribution of any Content that may be of a sensitive nature or otherwise inappropriate for general dissemination. End User shall be responsible for all use of the Service accessed in connection with End User’s password and all transactions effected in connection with the password. In particular, without limitation, Chester Fried shall be entitled to rely upon the authority to act for and to bind End User of any person accessing the Service with the password.
