Terms of Service
Welcome to Ultimate Guide To Animal Care. These Terms of Service outline the rules of engagement for using our websites, community tools, newsletters, downloads, and interactive experiences.
Contents
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the Ultimate Guide To Animal Care websites and services (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and any additional guidelines referenced herein. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
2. Permitted Use of the Site
You may use the Services for lawful, personal, and non-commercial purposes. You agree not to:
- Interfere with or disrupt the security or functionality of the Services.
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to user accounts, data, or systems.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any component of the Services.
- Use automated means (such as bots or scrapers) without our prior written consent.
- Post or transmit any content that is unlawful, harmful, defamatory, or infringes on intellectual property rights.
3. Accounts, Security & User Content
If you create an account or submit content, you are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and restricting access to your device. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use. By submitting content (comments, stories, images, etc.), you grant UGAC a worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, and distribute that content in connection with the Services. You represent that you have the necessary rights to upload and share such content.
4. Intellectual Property
The Services, including text, graphics, logos, multimedia, and design elements, are owned by or licensed to UGAC and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may view, download, or print content for personal use only. You may not reuse or distribute content for commercial purposes without prior written consent.
5. Third-Party Services & Links
The Services may include links to third-party websites, embedded games, or partner offers. We do not control or endorse third-party sites, and your interactions with them are governed by their own terms and policies. Review those documents before providing information or engaging with external services.
6. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability
The Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” UGAC disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. While we strive for accuracy, we do not guarantee that the content is error-free or that the Services will be uninterrupted.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, UGAC and its affiliates are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Services. In no event will our aggregate liability exceed the greater of one hundred U.S. dollars ($100) or the amount you paid to access premium portions of the Services in the 12 months preceding the claim.
7. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless UGAC, its affiliates, officers, employees, and partners from any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your use of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of any third-party rights.
8. Suspension & Termination
We may suspend or terminate access to the Services (in whole or in part) without notice if we believe you have violated these Terms, applicable laws, or engaged in conduct that harms other users. Upon termination, your right to use the Services ceases immediately, but applicable provisions of these Terms will continue to apply.
9. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Delaware without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute will be resolved through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association, conducted in English, and held in Wilmington, Delaware, unless both parties agree to another forum. You waive the right to participate in class or representative actions.
10. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms to reflect changes in our services, technology, or legal obligations. When we do, we will update the “Effective Date” above and, when required, provide additional notice. Continued use of the Services after updates take effect signifies your acceptance of the revised Terms.
