Terms of Service

November 03, 2009

Welcome to SusURL. By accessing the SusURL website ("Site") or using the services offered by SusURL ("Services") you agree and acknowledge to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms or to our Privacy Policy, please do not access the Site or use the Services. SusURL reserves the right to change these Terms at any time. We recommend that you periodically check this Site for changes.

1. Usage and Access

SusURL grants you a limited license to access the Site and use the Services in accordance with these Terms and the instructions and guidelines posted on the Site. SusURL reserves the rights to terminate your license to use the Site and Services at any time and for any reason or in the future charge for commercial usage.
You agree not to use our Service for spamming, spam related activities or any other illegal purposes. Any such use will result in the Short URL being disabled and you may be reported to all ISPs involved and to the proper governmental agencies. You also agree not to use or launch any automated system, including without limitation, "robots," "spiders," "offline readers," etc., that access the Site in a manner that sends more request messages to SusURL's servers in a given period of time than a human can reasonably produce in the same period by using a conventional on-line web browser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SusURL grants the operators of public search engines permission to use spiders to copy materials from the Site for the sole purpose of creating publicly available searchable indices of the materials thereon, but not caches or archives of such materials. SusURL reserves the right to revoke these exceptions either generally or in specific cases. You agree not to collect or harvest any personally identifiable information, from the Site, or to use the communication systems provided by the Site for any commercial solicitation purposes. You also agree not to copy any text, image, code or other content from our Site without our explicit permission for it.

2. User Responsibility

You are solely responsible for your use of the Site and Services. Because SusURL merely serves as a repository of information, user-posted content does not represent the advice, views, opinions or beliefs of SusURL, and SusURL makes no claim of accuracy of any user-posted material. SusURL allows the user to make his URLs short and offers a redirection service for it. The linked or redirected websites' content, business practices and privacy policies are not under our control, and we are not responsible for the content of any linked or redirected website or any link contained in a linked or redirected website. The inclusion of a link or redirection on the Site or Services does not imply any endorsement by or any affiliation with SusURL. In accessing the Site and Services or following links or redirections to third-party websites you may be exposed to content that you consider offensive or inappropriate. You agree that your only recourse is to stop using the Site and Services.

3. Content

By posting content, you are granting permission to us and others to access and use it in connection with the Services, the Site and otherwise in connection with our business. SusURL will save your URLs and other information (together the "Contents") for you and will provide you access thereto. You will be solely responsible for your posted Contents. In connection with your Contents, you agree that you will not: (1.) submit material that is copyrighted, protected by trade secret or otherwise subject to third party proprietary rights, including privacy and publicity rights, unless you are the owner of such rights or have permission from their rightful owner to post the material; (2.) publish falsehoods or misrepresentations that could damage SusURL or any third party; (3.) submit URLs or Contents that are unlawful, obscene, defamatory, libelous, threatening, pornographic, harassing, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive, or encourages conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, violate any law, or is otherwise inappropriate; (4.) offer or provide services whose subject matter is pornographic. Likewise, reference to political activities, political party meetings, demonstrations, fliers or petitions, as well as the propagation of political symbols is prohibited. Furthermore, Contents which insult, belittle, or in other negative ways affect other users are also prohibited. If you violate any of these restrictions, SusURL is authorized to deny or delete your Content and/or cancel your right to use our service, without prior notice. SusURL may do so in its sole discretion without any obligation to investigate. You will be liable to SusURL for all direct and indirect damages for any violation of the above mentioned restrictions. You agree to indemnify SusURL from all claims by third party resulting from your violation of the above restrictions.

4. Service Guaranties

This service is provided without warranty or guaranty of any kind.

5. DISCLAIMER

SusURL MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER REGARDING THE ACCURACY, CORRECTNESS, COMPLETENESS OR QUALITY OF INFORMATION OFFERED VIA USER CONTENT. SusURL SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE OR INJURY CAUSED BY THE USE OF, OR RELIANCE ON, INCORRECT OR INCOMPLETE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY SOURCES OTHER THAN SusURL, UNLESS THE DAMAGE OR INJURY IS THE RESULT OF INTENTIONAL OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE ON THE PART OF SusURL. ALL OFFERS ARE NON-COMMITTAL AND WITHOUT ENGAGEMENT. SusURL SPECIFICALLY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO ALTER, AMEND, OR OCCASIONALLY AND/OR PERMANENTLY DELETE IN WHOLE OR PART ANY USER CONTENT. SusURL SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE CONTENT OF ANY INFORMATION AVAILABLE THROUGH DIRECT AND INDIRECT LINKS TO EXTERNAL WEBSITES ("HYPERLINKS"), UNLESS SusURL HAS ACTUAL KNOWLEDGE OF ILLEGAL CONTENT AND HAS THE TECHNOLOGICAL CAPABILITY TO BLOCK OR DELETE SUCH INFORMATION AND FAILS TO DO SO. HOWEVER, SusURL HAS NO CONTROL WHATSOEVER OVER THE CONTENT OF LINKED PAGES AFTER THEIR INITIAL CREATION AND DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR THE CONTENT OF LINKED PAGES WHICH ARE ALTERED AFTER THEIR INITIAL CREATION. THE THIRD PARTY WHO HAS CREATED ANY HYPERLINK SHALL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ILLEGAL, FAULTY OR INCOMPLETE CONTENT THEREON AND ESPECIALLY FOR ANY DAMAGES WHICH ARISE FROM RELIANCE ON, OR USE OF, INFORMATION REFERRED TO THEREIN.

6. Final Provisions

Should any provision of these Terms of Use be or subsequently become invalid, illegal or unenforceable, these Terms of Use shall be deemed amended to delete therefrom the provision adjudicated invalid, illegal or unenforceable and the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use shall not be affected thereby. However, to the extent possible any provision adjudicated invalid, illegal or unenforceable shall be replaced with a provision which most closely provides the intended result of the deleted provision.
