1. Kshared Services.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Kshared makes certain Services available to User. For the purposes of this Agreement: (a) "User" (or "you") means the individual or business entity that is using or registering to use the Services, including its employees and agents; (b) Kshared "Services" means those electronic or interactive services offered by Kshared. Kshared reserves the right to change or discontinue any of the Services at any time.
2. Ownership.
You acknowledge that all materials (except those uploaded by users) provided on this Web site, including but not limited to information, documents, products, logos, graphics, sounds, images, software, and services (collectively "Materials"), are provided either by Kshared or by their respective third party authors, developers and vendors (collectively "Third Party Providers") and the underlying intellectual property rights are owned by Kshared and/or its Third Party Providers. Elements of the Web site are protected by trade dress and other laws and may not be copied or imitated in whole or in part. Kshared, the Kshared logo and other Kshared products referenced herein are trademarks of Kshared, and may be registered in certain jurisdictions. All other product names, company names, marks, logos, and symbols may be the trademarks of their respective owners.
3. User Information.
User represents and warrants that the information it provides in Kshared contact information forms is true, accurate, current and complete. User agrees to maintain and update this information to ensure that it is true, accurate, current and complete. If, at any time, any information provided by User is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Kshared will have the right to suspend or terminate User's account and this Agreement.
Each User is responsible for all activities originating from his or her account. Accounts cannot be transferred or used by anyone other than the User and authorized account sub-users. Kshared may suspend or terminate the account of Users who share their account with anyone other than the user and authorized account sub-users. Knowingly using a registered account assigned to another person is a violation of Kshared's terms of use. In addition to violating this policy, the sharing of accounts, passwords or usernames could result in unauthorized activity for which the authorized user will be held responsible. All Users are responsible for the actions of their authorized account sub-users and agree to ensure that their authorized account sub-users abide by the rules set forth in these terms. You must immediately notify Kshared if you have any suspicion or reason to believe that your account, username and/or password have been misused in any way.
4. User Data.
User has sole responsibility and liability for the data you store on Kshared's servers. User controls its data through its generated link. Kshared encourages User to archive its data regularly and frequently; User bears full responsibility for archiving its data and sole liability for any lost or irrecoverable data. User agrees to maintain its data in compliance with its legal obligations. Kshared will delete User data upon termination of this Agreement. However, Kshared may retain User data in its archives after deletion and will not be liable to User in any way for such retained data.
4.1 Use of optional email addresses
We may communicate with users from time to time via email to send information about important changes to our products and services, and to send notices and other disclosures required by law. By providing your email address, you agree to these communications, but they will be primarily informational in nature rather than promotional and will be strictly limited in number. We follow a strict no-spam policy.
5. Acceptable Use and Site Access
Kshared neither sanctions nor permits site content or the transmission of data that contains illegal or obscene material or fosters or promotes illegal activity, including but not limited to, the promotion or publication of any material that may violate legislation.
It is our policy to (1) block access to or remove material that we believe in good faith to be copyrighted material that has been illegally copied and distributed by any of our users; and (2) remove and discontinue service to repeat offenders.
Users are prohibited from storing or posting adult content. All material of a pornographic nature is considered adult content. Kshared reserves the right to determine what violates this policy.
Kshared reserves the right to immediately suspend or terminate any account or transmission that violates this policy, without prior notice.
5.1 Child Exploitation
Kshared will cooperate fully with any criminal investigation into a user's violation of any act of law concerning child exploitation, including child pornography. Kshared will involve and cooperate with law enforcement if a criminal violation is suspected. This may result in disclosing all information available to Kshared including but not limited to information contained in user's profiles, folders, transmissions, communications, passwords, or any other information Kshared considers applicable. Any user involved in such file transfers through Kshared will also be permanently removed from our service.
Kshared reports files that appear to involve child exploitation to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children's CyberTipline.
