9. Editorial control 
Except as set forth in the WCHS Privacy Policy, your participation in the Social Networking Services may be edited, censored or otherwise controlled by the WCHS; however, WCHS has no obligation to monitor the Social Networking Services. Except as set forth in the WCHS Privacy Policy, WCHS reserves the right to review materials posted to a Social Networking Service and to remove any materials in their sole discretion. WCHS reserve the right to terminate your access to any or all of the Social Networking Services at any time without notice for any reason whatsoever.

WCHS reserves the right to delete or edit any content submitted to any Social Networking Service, as it deems necessary, but you agree that WCHS has no obligation to do so.

You agree that the administrators and authorized moderators, if any, of a Social Networking Service have the right to remove, edit, move, or close any topic at any time should they see fit or if they are deemed to violate these terms. You acknowledge that all posts made to a Social Networking Service express the views and opinions of the author and do not represent WCHS. Therefore, WCHS will not be held liable for any forum content or claims arising from Social Networking Service content whether or not arising under the laws of copyright, defamation, privacy, obscenity or otherwise.

10. Interactions with others through Social Networking Services 
Always use caution when giving out any personally identifying information about yourself or your children in any Social Networking Service. WCHS does not necessarily control or endorse the content, messages or information found in any Social Networking Service, and, therefore, WCHS specifically disclaims any liability with regard to any Social Networking Services and any actions resulting from your participation in any Social Networking Service. Managers, moderators, and hosts of Social Networking Services are not necessarily authorized spokespersons of the WCHS, and their views do not necessarily reflect those of WCHS.

By responding to or otherwise acting upon a posting of another user, you waive any claims against WCHS for damages arising from such response or reliance upon statements in such other user’s posting(s). WCHS assumes no responsibility or legal liability for any loss, injury, or problems you may suffer as a result of any contact with anyone you meet through WCHS, this Web site or any Social Networking Service. Any and all exchange of personal information, including, but not limited to, addresses and telephone numbers with others, by e-mail, at a WCHS-sponsored event or otherwise is completely voluntary on the part of the users. Any exchange of personal information by members is based on the sole discretion and risk of the users.

11. Submissions
By uploading or providing any Postings, suggestions, information, ideas, feedback, recommendations or other information and/or materials (collectively, “Submissions”) to any Forum or to WCHS directly, you automatically grant (or warrant that the owner of such materials expressly grants) WCHS and its affiliates a perpetual, royalty-free, paid-up, worldwide, irrevocable, non-exclusive, unrestricted right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, publicly perform and display, create derivative works from and distribute such Submissions, and/or incorporate such Submissions into any form, medium, or technology now known or later developed throughout the world. In addition, you warrant that all so-called “moral rights” in those materials have been waived.

12. Indemnification
You shall indemnify, defend and hold WCHS, its licensors and information providers, and each such party’s parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, and agents, harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, proceedings, costs, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of or in connection with (a) your use of the Site and/or Content; and/or (b) your breach of these TOU and/or violation of any applicable law or right of a third party.

13. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
YOUR USE OF THE SITE AND CONTENT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE SITE AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED TO YOU ON AN “AS IS” BASIS, WITHOUT ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND OR NATURE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, NEITHER WCHS, ITS LICENSORS NOR ANY INFORMATION PROVIDERS MAKE ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR GUARANTY AS TO THE RELIABILITY, TIMELINESS, QUALITY, SUITABILITY, TRUTH, AVAILABILITY, ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE SITE AND/OR CONTENT, OR THAT THE USE OF THE SITE WILL BE SECURE, TIMELY, UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OR OPERATE IN COMBINATION WITH ANY OTHER HARDWARE, SOFTWARE, SYSTEM OR DATA.

ALL OTHER CONDITIONS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS, ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW BY WCHS, ITS LICENSORS, AND INFORMATION PROVIDERS. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties such that the above exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION OR THEORY OF RECOVERY, IN NO EVENT SHALL WCHS, ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS OR INFORMATION PROVIDERS BE LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE TO YOU FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, IN ASSOCIATION WITH THESE TOU, YOUR USE OF THE SITE AND/OR CONTENT, YOUR RELIANCE ON THE INFORMATION, DATA, ADVICE AND/OR MATERIALS CONTAINED IN OR MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU THROUGH THE SITE AND/OR CONTENT; AND/OR THE ACTIONS OR OMISSIONS OF WCHS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER WCHS IS AWARE OF THEIR POSSIBILITY.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THE DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY ARE ESSENTIAL TO ALLOW WCHS TO PROVIDE THE SITE AND CONTENT SET FORTH HEREIN. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT BUT FOR THESE PROVISIONS, WCHS WOULD NOT MAKE THE SITE AND/OR CONTENT AVAILABLE TO YOU.

14. Third Party Interaction
Because WCHS is not and cannot be a party in your communications, interactions and/or transactions with advertisers, sponsors, third-party content providers, other users or other third parties on or through the Site, in the event that you have a dispute with one or more such third parties, you acknowledge that your sole and exclusive remedies are against such third parties. You expressly covenant not to sue WCHS in association with such disputes, and hereby release WCHS, its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents, and employees from any and all claims, demands, suits, expenses, fees (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, penalties, fines and damages of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.

15. Jurisdictional Issues
WCHS makes no representation that Content, materials or information on the Site is appropriate or available for use in any particular location. Those who choose to access the Site do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

16. Governing Law and Venue
In order to ensure consistency in the interpretation and enforcement of these TOU and WCHS’s rights in the Site, Content and other proprietary materials, these TOU will be governed exclusively by Michigan law and controlling United States federal law, without regard to the choice or conflicts of law provisions of any jurisdiction. You expressly agree that any litigation arising between the parties related, in any way, to these TOU, the Site, the Content and/or any and all disputes, actions, claims, or causes of action related thereto shall be initiated and maintained only in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan, and/or Circuit Court of the County Kent, Michigan. You expressly consent and irrevocably submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

17. General Provisions
If any provision of these TOU is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall be modified to the extent necessary to be valid and enforceable, and all other provisions of these TOU shall remain in full force and effect. The failure of WCHS to enforce any right or provision in these TOU shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by WCHS in writing. No waiver shall be implied from a failure of either party to exercise a right or remedy. In addition, no waiver of a party’s right or remedy will effect the other provisions of these TOU.
