ANY ORDER OR PURCHASE OF REALTORGRAPHICS SERVICES BY CUSTOMER CONSTITUTES AN
EXPRESS AND IRREVOCABLE ACCEPTANCE OF THIS RGTS.
2. Description of Services
The RealtorGraphics Services comprise the following:
(a) Design Templates. RealtorGraphics may provide Customer with a capability
to transmit text and digital image files to RealtorGraphics for the purpose
of personalizing RealtorGraphics-compatible templates.

3. Modifications to Terms of Service
RealtorGraphics may amend this RGTS at any time without notice to Customers
by posting the changes on the RG Site, and any such changes will be effective
seven (7) business days after being posted. Customer's continued use of the
Services subsequent to the effectiveness of any amendment to the RGTS constitutes:
(1) an affirmative acknowledgment by Customer of the RGTS and its modifications;
and (2) an affirmative agreement by Customer to abide and be bound by the RGTS
and its modifications.
4. Modifications to Services
RealtorGraphics reserves the right to modify or discontinue any or
all of the Services with or without notice to Customers. RealtorGraphics shall
not be liable to Customer or any third party should RealtorGraphics exercise
its right to modify or discontinue any or all of the Services.
5. Service Warranty
If RealtorGraphics fails to process a Print Job in accordance with the specifications
submitted by a Customer and accepted by RealtorGraphics, then RealtorGraphics
shall repeat the Job in whole or in part as case may be, at no expense to the
Customer. If a repeat Job is not feasible, then RealtorGraphics shall, in its
sole discretion, issue a credit to the extent of any portion of the Job not
processed satisfactorily.
With respect to the Design Services, RealtorGraphics will perform such Service
consistent with generally accepted industry standards. If RealtorGraphics fails
to perform a Design Service Job in accordance with the specifications submitted
by Customer and accepted by RealtorGraphics, the RealtorGraphics may, in its
sole discretion, repeat or revise the Job and/or issue a credit in whole or
part.
THE ABOVE-STATED WARRANTIES ARE THE ONLY WARRANTIES APPLICABLE TO THE SERVICES,
AND ARE EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING
ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY. A REPEAT OR REVISED DESIGN SERVICE JOB OR CREDIT IF APPROPRIATE,
AS APPLICABLE ARE A CUSTOMER'S SOLE REMEDY FOR ANY BREACH OF WARRANTY. THE WARRANTIES
SET FORTH HEREIN WITH RESPECT TO ANY PRINT JOB WILL NOT APPLY IN THOSE CASES
WHERE THE FAILURE TO PERFORM WAS AS A RESULT OF ERRORS IN INFORMATION SUPPLIED
BY A CUSTOMER.
6. Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability
(a) THE RG Site AND ITS CONTENTS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS
AVAILABLE" WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND, WHETHER
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EXCEPT AS MAY BE SPECIFICALLY STATED IN THIS RGTS. REALTORGRAPHICS
MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION AS TO THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR CURRENCY
OF ANY INFORMATION, CONTENT OR SERVICE PROVIDED THROUGH OR ACCESSIBLE VIA THE
RG SITE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, REALTORGRAPHICS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS
ALL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE RG Site, CONTENT, INFORMATION
AND SERVICES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS. REALTORGRAPHICS
WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST OR DAMAGED ARTWORK, SLIDES, PHOTOS OR TRANSPARENCIES,
WHETHER INTENDED FOR USE IN PRINTING, FOR THE PURPOSE OF DESIGN SERVICES, OR
OTHERWISE. NO ORAL COMMUNICATION OR WRITTEN INFORMATION, OTHER THAN AS CONTAINED
IN THIS RGTS, GIVEN BY REALTORGRAPHICS OR ANY OF ITS EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS
OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVES SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY. PRICE AND AVAILABILITY INFORMATION
IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE.
(b) THE FOREGOING IS A COMPREHENSIVE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. AS A CUSTOMER,
YOUR USE OF THE RG Site, CONTENT AND SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. NEITHER REALTORGRAPHICS
NOR ANY OF ITS EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVES WILL
BE LIABLE FOR ANY COMPENSATORY, DIRECT, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL
OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, LOSS OF DATA, INCOME OR PROFIT, LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY,
OR ANY CLAIMS OF THIRD PARTIES ARISING FROM THE USE OF THE RG Site, ITS CONTENT
OR THE SERVICES, REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL THEORY (E.G., CONTRACT, STATUTORY,
OR TORT, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY DAMAGES ARISING
OUT OF RELIANCE BY A CUSTOMER ON INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM REALTORGRAPHICS OR
THE RG Site, OR FOR DAMAGES THAT RESULT, IN WHOLE OR PART, FROM ANY MISTAKE,
OMISSION, VIRUS, DELAY IN OPERATION, INTERRUPTION OF SERVICE, OR COMMUNICATIONS
FAILURE, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY AN ACT OF GOD. Some states do not allow the
exclusion or limitation of liability for certain damages, e.g., consequential
or incidental damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to some Customers.
In such circumstances, RealtorGraphics's liability shall be limited to the fullest
extent permitted by law.
7. Customer Conduct and Responsibilities
(a) All information requested on a Customer's original sign-up or registration
with RealtorGraphics shall be referred to herein as registration data ("Registration
Data"). If any information provided by Customer is inaccurate, RealtorGraphics
retains the right to terminate Customer's access to and rights to use the Services.
(b) Upon registration, Customer must establish a User Id and Password. Each
Customer is solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of his/her/its
User Id and Password, and for the uses of Customer's RealtorGraphics account,
whether or not expressly authorized by Customer.
(c) Each Customer's access to and use of the RG Site and Services is subject
to all applicable local, state, national and international laws and regulations.
As a Customer, you agree to be solely responsible for the contents of your transmissions
to the RG Site and use of the Services. Further, you agree: (1) to comply with
all US law regarding the transmission of technical data exported from the United
States through or using the Services; (2) not to use the Services for illegal
purposes; (3) not to interfere or disrupt networks connected to the Services;
and (4) to comply with all regulations, policies and procedures of networks
connected to the Services. Customer agrees not to transmit or to use the Services
to transmit any unlawful, harassing, libelous, abusive, threatening, harmful,
vulgar, obscene or otherwise objectionable material of any kind or nature, or
to interfere with, abuse or otherwise violate the legal rights of any third
party using the RG Site or Services. Customer further agrees not to transmit
any material that encourages conduct that could constitute a criminal offense,
gives rise to civil liability or otherwise violates any applicable local, state,
national or international law or regulation, including but not limited to any
material or information that infringes any patent, trademark, trade secret,
copyright or any other proprietary rights of any party, or any material that
contains software viruses or any other computer code, files or programs designed
to interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or
hardware or telecommunications equipment. Attempts to gain unauthorized access
to other computer systems are prohibited. RealtorGraphics may, at its sole discretion,
immediately terminate Services should Customer's conduct fail to conform to
these terms and conditions of the RGTS.
8. Proprietary Rights
Customer acknowledges and agrees that RealtorGraphics, and/or RealtorGraphics's
licensors, retain all right, title, and interest including, without limitation,
all patents, trademarks, trade names, inventions, copyrights, know-how, and
trade secrets embodied in or otherwise relating to, the software and other technology
used to provide the Services (collectively, the "RG Technology") and
the RG Site and in all content of the RG Site, including but not limited to
text, software, music, sound, photographs, video, and graphics (the "RG
Site Content"). The RG Site Content is subject to and protected by U.S.
and international copyright laws, trademarks, service marks, patents or other
proprietary rights and laws; therefore Customer is only permitted to use the
RG Site Content as expressly authorized. Customer may not reproduce, distribute,
or make derivative works of the Site Content, without the express written permission
of RealtorGraphics. RealtorGraphics retains all rights not specifically granted
to Customer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer agrees
not to reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive
the source for the RG Technology, or otherwise use or copy the RG Technology
or RG Site Content, except that Customer may, during the term of this RGTS,
access and use the RG Technology solely through the user interface provided
at the RG Site for the sole purpose of placing and confirming the status of
Job Orders for Services. The Services are offered for sale and are sold by RealtorGraphics
subject in every case to the condition that such sale does not convey any license,
expressly or by implication, to manufacture, duplicate, resell or otherwise
copy or reproduce any of the RG Site Content or RG Technology. RealtorGraphics,
the RealtorGraphics logo are trademarks or service marks of RealtorGraphics,
i.e., RealtorGraphics Incorporated.
9. Indemnification
Customer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless RealtorGraphics, its parents,
subsidiaries, affiliates, officers and employees, from any claim or demand,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any third party due to or arising
out of Customer's use of the RG Site and Services, the violation of this RGTS
by Customer, or the infringement by Customer, or other user of the Services
using Customer's computer, of any intellectual property or other legal right
of any person or entity. This indemnification applies to, but is not limited
to, any misuse by Customer of the Services offered by RealtorGraphics.
10. Links to other Web Sites
The RG Site may now or in the future contain links to other websites. Such linked
web sites are operated by third parties and are not under the control of RealtorGraphics,
and therefore RealtorGraphics is not responsible for the content of any linked
site, the services that may be available on a linked site, the links that may
be contained within a linked site, or any updates or changes to such linked
sites. These links are provided to Customers only as a convenience, and RealtorGraphics
may terminate such links at any time without notice.
11. Termination
Either Customer or RealtorGraphics may terminate the Services with or without
cause at any time and effective immediately. Termination shall be accompanied
by a written notice to the other party. RealtorGraphics shall not be liable
to Customer or any third party for termination of Services. Should Customer
object to any terms and conditions of the RGTS or any subsequent modifications
thereto or become dissatisfied with the Services in any way, Customer's only
recourse is to immediately: (1) discontinue use of the RG Site and Services;
and (2) notify RealtorGraphics of termination. Upon termination of the Services,
Customer's right to use the Services immediately ceases. Customer shall have
no right and RealtorGraphics will have no obligation thereafter to forward any
unread or unsent messages to Customer or any third party.
12. Notice
All notices to a party shall be in writing and shall be made either via email
or conventional mail. RealtorGraphics may broadcast notices or messages via
email to inform Customer of changes to the RGTS, the Services, or other matters
of importance; such broadcasts shall constitute notice to Customer.
13. Governing Law and Venue
The RG Site (excluding any links to third-party websites) is controlled by RealtorGraphics
from its offices within the State of Texas. Because the RG Site may be accessed
from any or all of the 50 states, as well as other countries, Customer and RealtorGraphics
agree that the internal laws and statutes of the State of Texas, excluding its
conflict of law provisions, will govern and apply to your use of the RG Site
and Services, and this RGTS shall likewise be so governed and construed. Customer
and RealtorGraphics hereby agree the federal and state courts having jurisdiction
in the County of Harris, Texas shall be the sole venue and shall have exclusive
jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute arising out of this RGTS or Customer's
use of the RG Site and Services. In connection therewith, Customer and RealtorGraphics
each expressly consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the federal
and state courts having jurisdiction within the County of Harris, Texas. Customer
and RealtorGraphics further agree that any cause of action arising out of or
related to the RGTS and/or the RG Site and Services must commence within one
(1) year after the cause of action arose; otherwise, such cause of action is
permanently barred.
14. General
If any provision of this RGTS is held by a court or other tribunal
of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, then such provision(s) shall
be construed, as nearly as possible, to reflect the intentions of the parties,
and all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. RealtorGraphics's
failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the RGTS shall not
constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed
to by RealtorGraphics in writing. Your use of the RG Site, however, may be subject
to additional policies, disclaimer, or caveats that may appear throughout the
RG Site. If you violate the terms of this RGTS, RealtorGraphics reserves the
right to terminate providing Services to you without notice. Your sole recourse
or remedy is to receive a refund for prepaid but unused Services, if applicable.
This RGTS may not be assigned or transferred by Customer, by operation of law
or otherwise, without the prior written consent of RealtorGraphics. RealtorGraphics
may assign or transfer this RGTS without consent to its successor in connection
with a merger, consolidation, or other form of corporate reorganization, or
in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of its assets. Any purported
assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be void and invalid. The section
titles in the RGTS are solely used for the convenience of the parties and have
no legal or contractual significance. This RGTS shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of RealtorGraphics and Customer, and their respective permitted
successors, assigns and transferees. This RGTS comprises the entire agreement
between you ("Customer") and RealtorGraphics, and supersedes any prior
or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions or agreements.
