1. Acceptance of Terms
The Place Website (“TPW”) provides a collection of online resources, including prayer requests, audio of sermons, members directory, photo albums, classified ads, and other services, (referred to hereafter as the “Service”) subject to the following Terms of Use (“Terms”). The Service has been created to be easily accessible to all users, but it also has limitations and risks that you must be aware of before using and/or participating. By using the Service in any way, you agree to comply with the Terms. In addition, when using a particular Service, you agree to abide by any applicable posted guidelines for all TPW services, which may change from time to time.

TPW has the right, but is not obligated, to strictly enforce the Terms through self-help, active investigation, litigation and prosecution.

Furthermore, the Content available through the Service may contain links to other websites, which are completely independent of TPW. TPW makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy, completeness or authenticity of the information contained in any such site. Your linking to any other websites is at your own risk. You agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with, the use of any Content, that you may not rely on said Content, and that under no circumstances will TPW be liable in any way for any Content posted by third parties, including you, or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any Content posted, emailed or otherwise made available via the Service.

6. Access to the Service
TPW grants you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive license to access the Service for your own personal use. This license does not include any collection, aggregation, copying, duplication, display or derivative use of the Service nor any use of data mining, robots, spiders, or similar data gathering and extraction tools for any purpose unless expressly permitted by TPW. A limited exception to such restriction is provided to general purpose internet search engines and non-commercial public archives that use such tools to gather information for the sole purpose of displaying hyperlinks to the Service, provided they each do so from a stable IP address or range of IP addresses using an easily identifiable agent. TPW permits you to display on your website, or create a hyperlink on your website to, individual postings on the Service so long as such use is for noncommercial and/or news reporting purposes only (e.g., for use in personal web blogs or personal online media). You may also create a hyperlink to the home page of TPW so long as the link does not portray TPW or its affiliates in a false, misleading, derogatory, or otherwise offensive matter. Use of the Service beyond the scope of authorized access granted to you by TPW immediately terminates said permission or license.
7. Termination of Service
You agree that TPW, in its sole discretion, has the right (but not the obligation) to delete or deactivate your account, block your email or IP address, or otherwise terminate your access to or use of the Service (or any part thereof), immediately and without notice, and remove and discard any Content within the Service, for any reason, including, without limitation, if TPW believes that you have acted inconsistently with TPW stated values. Further, you agree that TPW shall not be liable to you or any third-party for any termination of your access to the Service. Further, you agree not to attempt to use the Service after said termination. Sections 2, 4, 8 and 9 shall survive termination of the Terms.
