You understand and agree that the Service is provided "AS-IS" and that Community of Care assumes no responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store any user communications or personalization settings. You are responsible for obtaining access to the Service and that access may involve third party fees (such as Internet service provider or airtime charges). You are responsible for those fees, including those fees associated with the display or delivery of advertisements. In addition, you must provide and are responsible for all equipment necessary to access the Service.

You understand that the technical processing and transmission of the Service, including your Content, may involve (a) transmissions over various networks; and (b) changes to conform and adapt to technical requirements of connecting networks or devices.

7. SPECIAL ADMONITIONS FOR INTERNATIONAL USE

Specifically, you agree to comply with all applicable laws regarding the transmission of technical data exported from the United States or the country in which you reside.

8. CONTENT SUBMITTED OR MADE AVAILABLE FOR INCLUSION ON THE SERVICE
Community of Care does not claim ownership of Content you submit or make available for inclusion on the Service. However, with respect to Content you submit or make available for inclusion on publicly accessible areas of the Service, you grant Community of Care the following world-wide, royalty free and non-exclusive license(s), as applicable:
* With respect to Content you submit or make available for inclusion on publicly accessible areas of Community of Care, the license to use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publicly perform and publicly display such Content on the Service solely for the purposes of providing and promoting the specific Community of Care service to which such Content was submitted or made available and to incorporate such Content into other works in any format or medium now known or later developed. This license exists only for as long as you elect to continue to include such Content on the Service and will terminate at the time you remove or Community of Care removes such Content from the Service.
"Publicly accessible" areas of the Service are those areas of the Community of Care network of properties that are intended by Community of Care to be available to the general public. By way of example, publicly accessible areas of the Service would include County Resource pages that are open to both members and visitors. However, publicly accessible areas of the Service would not include portions of Community of Care that are limited to members, such as the Job Board.
