You acknowledge that if Your computer can be accessed by a minor, that You will take all precautions to keep Our Materials from being viewed by minors. You additionally acknowledge that if You are a parent, it is Your responsibility, and not Ours, to prevent your children’s access to any inappropriate content.

4.2.1. All depictions of all persons on Our Website are of persons over the age of eighteen (18) as of the date of the production of the depiction. We take great measures to ensure that no underage models appear in any of Our materials.
4.2.2. If You seek any form of pornographic material involving minors (including so- called “virtual” child pornography), You must exit this Website and cease using Our Services immediately. We do not provide this kind of material and We do not tolerate those who provide this kind of material nor do We tolerate consumers of this kind of material. Content or communications seeking to solicit, lure or entice minors into sexual activity or lewd behavior is also strictly prohibited, and will be treated the same as child pornography. Consistent with federal law, We will cooperate with law enforcement authorities and will notify such authorities if we suspect that You are engaged in any such illegal activities.
4.2.3. In order to further Our zero-tolerance policy You agree to report any images that appear to depict minors on Our Site. If You see any images or other depictions that are questionable, You agree to report these images by emailing us at support@TalkToMe.com.
4.2.4. Include with Your report any appropriate evidence, including the date and time of identification. All reports will immediately be investigated and the appropriate action will be taken.

You stipulate that You access this Website freely, voluntarily, and willingly, and for Your own personal enjoyment.

5.4. You agree not to use or access the Website if doing so would violate the laws of Your state, province, or country.

Our Site permits the submission and transmission of content solely generated by third-parties (“User Generated Content”), as well as the hosting, sharing, and/or publishing of such User Generated Content, which may include Content provided by Our Users. You understand that whether or not such User Generated Content is published, We do not guarantee any confidentiality with respect to any submissions.

5.6. Section 230 Notice.
You acknowledge Your responsibility to prevent minors under Your care from accessing harmful or inappropriate material. You agree not to allow minors to view any such content, and You agree to take responsible measures to prevent them from doing so. Numerous commercial online safety filters are available which may help users limit minors’ access to harmful or inappropriate material. Pursuant to 47 U.S.C. §230(d), You are hereby informed that You can research such services at websites such as: http://www.getnetwise.org or http://www.child-internet-safety.com/internet_filters.php, among others.

You agree to take particular steps to prevent minors from viewing Our Site or the content received via Our Services if Your computer or mobile device can be accessed by a minor. Finally, You agree that if You are a parent or guardian of a minor child, it is Your responsibility, not Ours, to keep any age-restricted content on Our Site or Services from being displayed or accessed by Your children or wards.
5.6.1. Pursuant to the Communications Decency Act (“CDA”), 47 U.S.C. § 230(c)(1), and court decisions interpreting the scope of the CDA, You acknowledge and understand that We operate as the provider of an interactive computer service. Thus, We are immune from, and cannot be held responsible for, claims arising from the publication or transmission of third-party content, which includes content provided by Our Users, as well as the content of other Users and third parties. We do not create such content, and We are not responsible for the publication of remarks or communications of third-parties that may arguably rise to the level of being actionable under federal or state laws including, but not limited to, the publication of material that might be considered defamatory, or violative of privacy or publicity rights. Note, that federal law allows Us to remove or block any content found to be offensive, defamatory, obscene or otherwise violative of our policies, without impacting Our status as the provider of an interactive computer service. In the event that any court finds that any third party communication or third party content on Our Website falls outside of the realm of the immunity provided by Section 230 of the CDA, this shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any legal protections provided by Section 230 for any and all other content posted on Our Website.
5.6.2. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to limit or alter the immunity from claims provided by Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, and no third parties are intended to benefit from this Agreement between You and Us.

Our DMCA Notice Procedures are set forth in the preceding section of this Agreement. If the notice does not comply with that section and §512 of the DMCA, but does comply with three requirements for identifying the site that is infringing according to §512 of the DMCA, We shall attempt to contact or take other reasonable steps to contact the complaining party to help that party comply with the notice requirements.
15.1.3. When the Designated Agent receives a valid notice, We will expeditiously remove and/or disable access to the infringing material and shall notify the affected user. Then, the affected user may submit a counter-notification to the Designated Agent containing a statement made under penalty of perjury that the user has a good faith belief that the material was removed because of misidentification of the material. After the Designated Agent receives the counter- notification, We will replace the material at issue within ten to fourteen (10-14) days after receipt of the counter-notification unless the Designated Agent receives notice that a court action has been filed by the complaining party seeking an injunction against the infringing activity. We reserve the right to modify, alter or add to this policy, and all Users should regularly check back to these Terms and Conditions to stay current on any such changes.

A counter-notification is the proper method for the Recipient to dispute the removal or disabling of material pursuant to a Notice. The information that a Recipient provides in a counter-notification must be accurate and truthful, and the Recipient will be liable for any misrepresentations which may cause any claims to be brought against Us relating to the Content.

16.2. To submit a counter-notification, please provide Our Designated Copyright agent the following information:
16.2.1. a specific description of the material that was removed or disabled pursuant to the Notice;
16.2.2. A description of where the material was located within the Site or the Content before such material was removed and/or disabled. Please provide the specific URL if possible;
16.2.3. a statement reflecting the Recipient’s belief that the removal or disabling of the material was done so erroneously. For convenience, the following format may be used:
“I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good faith belief that the referenced material was removed or disabled by the service provider as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;” and
16.2.4. the Recipient’s physical address, telephone number, and email address. Written notification containing the above information must be signed and sent to: support@TalkToMe.com.

16.3. After receiving a DMCA-compliant counter-notification, Our Designated Copyright Agent will forward it to Us, and We will then provide the counter-notification to the entity who first provided the Notice concerning material in the Recipient’s Content.

16.4. Additionally, within ten to fourteen (10-14) days of Our receipt of the counter- notification, We will replace or cease disabling access to the disputed material provided that We or Our Designated Copyright Agent have not received notice from the entity who first provided the Notice that such entity has filed a legal action pertaining to the disputed material.
