In these Terms the content on the Site, including all information, data, software, logos, marks, designs, graphics, pictures, sound files, other files, and their selection and arrangement, is called “Content.” Content provided by Users (including information provided by, or collected on behalf of Subscribers) is called “User Content.”
User Content remains the property of the User. Vanessa’s Vintage’s rights to User Content are limited to the limited licenses granted in Section 4 and Section 15 of these Terms.
Other than User Content, the Site, all Content and all software available on the Site or used to create and operate the Site is the property of Vanessa’s Vintage or its licensors, and is protected by United States and international copyright and intellectual property laws, and all rights to the Site, the Content and software are expressly reserved. All trademarks, registered trademarks, product names and company names or logos identified in the Site are the property of their respective owners. Reference to any product, services, processes or other information, by trade name, trademark, manufacturer, supplier or otherwise does not constitute or imply endorsement, sponsorship or recommendation thereof by Vanessa’s Vintage.

Although we have no obligation to do so, we have the absolute discretion to remove, screen or edit without notice any User Content posted or stored on the Site, and we may do this at any time and for any reason.

Limited License of Your User Content to Vanessa’s Vintage
We do not claim any ownership interest in your User Content, but we do need the right to use your User Content to the extent necessary to operate the Site, and provide the services provided by the Site, now and in the future. For example, if a Subscriber requests that we collect certain information or data on its behalf, we require your permission and license to use the information or data in the operation of the Site. Also, if a User leaves comments or posts on the Vanessa’s Vintage forum, we need your license to display that User Content on the Site.
Therefore, by posting or distributing User Content, or permitting the collection of information or data by Vanessa’s Vintage, you (a) grant Vanessa’s Vintage and its affiliates and subsidiaries a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable right to use, display, perform, reproduce, distribute, publish, modify, adapt, translate, and create derivative works from such User Content on the Site, in the manner in and for the purposes for which the Site, from time to time, uses such User Content; (b) represent and warrant that (i) you own and control all of the rights to the User Content, information and data that you post and permit us to collect, or you otherwise have the lawful right to collect, post and distribute that User Content, information and data to or through the Site; and (ii) the use and posting or other transmission of such User Content does not violate these Terms and will not violate any rights of or cause injury to any person or entity.
If your User Content is intended for the use of other Users or third-parties, you also grant us and our affiliates and subsidiaries a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable right to sublicense such User Content to such Users or third-parties for their use in connection with their use of the Site, as described in Section 4 of these Terms.
These licenses from you are non-exclusive because you have the right to use your User Content elsewhere. They are royalty-free because we are not required to pay you for the use of your User Content on the Site. And they are transferable because we need the right to transfer these licenses to any successor operator of the Site. Our rights to “modify, adapt, translate, and create derivative works from” are necessary because the normal operation of the Site does this to your User Content when it processes it for use in the Site.

Use of Interactive Areas and the Site
The Site may contain discussion forums, bulletin boards, review services or other forums in which you or third-parties may post reviews or other content, messages, materials or other items on the Site (“Interactive Areas”). If Vanessa’s Vintage provides such Interactive Areas, you are solely responsible for your use of such Interactive Areas and use them at your own risk. User Content submitted to any public area of the Site will be considered non- confidential. By using any Interactive Areas, you expressly agree not to post, upload to, transmit, distribute, store, create or otherwise publish through the Site any of the following:

- Viruses, corrupted data or other harmful, disruptive or destructive files;
- Content that is unrelated to the topic of the Interactive Area(s) in which such Content is posted; or
- Content that, in the sole judgment of Vanessa’s Vintage, is objectionable or which restricts or inhibits any other person from using or enjoying the Interactive Areas or the Site, or which may expose Vanessa’s Vintage or its affiliates or its users to any harm or liability of any type.
Finally, Vanessa’s Vintage has a “zero-tolerance” policy towards SPAM: you may not use the Interactive Areas or the Site generally to send commercial or other messages to any third-party if those messages are not solicited, authorized or welcomed by the third- party, and in your use of the Site you must comply with all applicable laws, including laws that apply in any jurisdiction to SPAM and marketing practices, and with any applicable marketing association guidelines on ethical marketing practices.
Any use of the Interactive Areas or other portions of the Site in violation of the foregoing violates these Terms and may result in, among other things, termination or suspension of your rights to use the Interactive Areas and/or the Site.

Providing a Reliable and Secure Service
We take security seriously. We strive to maintain a reliable and secure environment for your data. However, no system is perfectly secure or reliable, the internet is an inherently insecure medium, and the reliability of hosting services, internet intermediaries, your internet service provider, and other service providers cannot be assured. When you use Vanessa’s Vintage, you accept these risks, and the responsibility for choosing to use a technology that does not provide perfect security or reliability. In particular, Subscribers who enable auto-billing and choose to store credit card information on this Site, or on any third-party site, accept these risks to the security of that credit card information. When storing credit card information during the account set- up process, Subscribers acknowledge that they are aware of, and accept as satisfactory, Vanessa’s Vintage' credit card protection procedures. Ultimately, Subscribers provide credit card data and Subscribers are responsible for its protection.
-
Links to Other Sites
The Site may contain links to third-party Web sites (“Third-Party Sites”) and third-party content (“Third-Party Content”) as a service to those interested in this information. Third-Party Sites include payment processors and other payment intermediaries that you may use in connection with your use of the Site. You use links to Third-Party Sites, and any Third-Party Content or service provided there at your own risk. Vanessa’s Vintage does not monitor or have any control over, and makes no claim or representation regarding, Third-Party Content or Third-Party Sites. Vanessa’s Vintage provides these links only as a convenience, and a link to a Third-Party Site or Third-Party Content does not imply Vanessa’s Vintage' endorsement, adoption or sponsorship of, or affiliation with, such Third-Party Site or Third-Party Content. Vanessa’s Vintage accepts no responsibility for reviewing changes or updates to, or the quality, content, policies, nature or reliability of, Third-Party Content, Third-Party Sites, or Web sites linking to the Site. When you leave the Site, our terms and policies are no longer applicable. You should review applicable terms and policies, including privacy and data gathering practices, of any Third-Party Site, and should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any transaction with any third-party.
