To the extent You are in a jurisdiction that has a legal cooling-off period, You recognize that accessing the Product will forfeit any rights You might have under that cooling-off period.

Ownership Of All Intellectual Property
All content included as part of the Product, such as text, graphics, logos, images, as well as the compilation thereof, and any software used in the Product, is the property of the Company or its suppliers and protected by copyright and other laws that protect intellectual property and proprietary rights.
The Company name, the Company logo, the Company slogan, and all related names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans are trademarks of the Company or its affiliates or licensors. You must not use such marks without the prior written permission of the Company. All other names, logos, product and service names, designs and slogans in the Product are the trademarks of their respective owners.
Your purchase of the Product does not result in a transfer of any intellectual property to You, and, as a condition of purchase and use of the Product, You agree to observe and abide by all copyright and other intellectual property protection.
You are granted a single-use, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Product. You hereby agree that You will not modify, publish, transmit, reverse engineer, participate in the transfer or sale, create derivative works, or in any way exploit any of the content, in whole or in part, found in the Product.
The Company content is not for resale. Your purchase of the Product does not entitle You to make any unauthorized use of any protected content, and in particular, You will not delete or alter any proprietary rights or attribution notices in any content. You will use protected content solely for Your individual use, and will make no other use of the content without the express written permission of the Company and the copyright owner. You agree that You do not acquire any ownership rights in any protected content. We do not grant You any licenses, express or implied, to the intellectual property of the Company or our licensors except as expressly authorized herein.
You hereby agree that any infringement of the Company’s intellectual property shall result in an immediate termination of the license granted hereunder. To be clear, if You violate the Company’s intellectual property rights, Your access to the Product will be terminated immediately, and You shall not be entitled to a refund of any portion of the fees.
Personal Responsibility
You accept personal responsibility for the results of Your actions. You agree that the Company has not made any guarantees about the results of taking any action, whether recommended in the Product or not. The Company provides educational and informational resources that are intended to help users of the Product succeed. You nevertheless recognize that Your ultimate success or failure will be the result of Your own efforts, Your particular situation, and innumerable other circumstances beyond the control and/or knowledge of the Company.
You also recognize that prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Thus, the results obtained by others – whether clients of the Company or otherwise – using the Product are no guarantee that You or any other person or entity will be able to obtain similar results.
You agree to take full responsibility for any harm or damage You suffer as a result of the use, or non-use, of the information available in the Product. You agree to use judgment and conduct due diligence before taking any actions or implementing any plans or policy suggested or recommended in the Product.
No Warranties
The Company makes no warranties regarding the performance or operation of the Product. The Company further makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, as to the information, contents, materials, documents, programs, products, books, or services included in or through the Product. To the fullest extent permissible under the law, the Company disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
Limitation of Liability
You agree to absolve and do hereby absolve the Company of any and all liability or loss that You or any person or entity associated with You may suffer or incur as a result of use of the Product and/or any information and resources contained in the Product. You agree that the Company shall not be liable to You for any type of damages, including direct, indirect, special, incidental, equitable, or consequential loss or damages for use of the Product.
The information, software, products, and service included or available through the Product may include inaccuracies or typographical errors. Changes are periodically added to the information in the Product. The Company and/or its suppliers may make improvements and/or changes in the Product at any time.
The Company and/or its suppliers make no representations about the suitability, reliability, availability, timeliness, and accuracy of the information, software, products, services, and related graphics contained in the Product for any purpose. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all such information, software, products, services, and related graphics are provided “as is” without warranty or condition of any kind. The Company and/or its suppliers hereby disclaim all warranties and conditions with regard to this information, software, products, services, and related graphics, including all implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Company and/or its suppliers be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential damages or any damages whatsoever including, without limitation, damages for loss of use, data, or profits arising out of or in any way connected with the use or performance of the Product, with the delay or inability to use the Product or related service, the provision of or failure to provide services, or for any information, software, products, services, and related graphics obtained through the Product, or otherwise arising out of the use of the Product, whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise, even if the Company or any of its suppliers has been advised of the possibility of damages. Because some States or other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitations may not apply to You. If You are dissatisfied with the Product or any portion of it, Your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue using the Product.
