court order. In other words, no personal information is released to

comments in the public posting areas of the Site may be visible to
all users of this Site.
Information provided to the Site will be used solely for the
purposes of the service. When necessary, contact information is used

email addresses to anyone.
Logging of Personal Information
Like most Internet servers, our web server does log the date, time,
and IP address of all connections made to our site. Except in cases
of abuse to our system, we do not make any attempt to associate
these IP addresses with individual users. These logs are used to
generate aggregate reports of website usage. These reports do not
contain any personally identifiable information.
Links and Comment Postings
This site may contain links to other sites which are not under our
control. We are not responsible in any way for the content posted on
these linked sites or for the comments posted to the public posting
areas of the Site as a result of the services we provide. You agree
that you must evaluate and bear all risks associated with use of the
Site, including those risks associated with reliance on the
accuracy, thoroughness, or utility of any Content. You acknowledge
that due to the immediate nature of this medium, Grassroots Films
does not review, censor, approve, edit, or endorse information
placed on the Site by its users, and cannot guarantee that
inappropriate material will not be posted. Grassroots Films will
review user postings from time to time and will take steps to remove
inappropriate postings that come to its attention.
Disclaimer
Grassroots Films does not accept responsibility for the activities
of any third parties listing on this site or the content they
provide. We reserve the right to suspend, delete, or cancel any
account/service at any time for any reason. By using this site you
are agreeing to these conditions.
User Conduct
Grassroots Films wants to encourage an open exchange of information
and ideas, but Grassroots Films cannot and does not review every
posting made in public posting areas. You can expect these areas to
include information and opinions from a variety of individuals and
organizations other than Grassroots Films. Grassroots Films neither
endorses nor guarantees the accuracy of any posting, regardless of
whether the posting comes from a user, from a celebrity or “expert”
guest, or from a member of its staff. There is no substitute for
healthy skepticism and your own good judgment.
Responsibility for what is posted in the public posting areas on the
Site lies with each user: you alone are responsible for material you
post. By using the Site, you agree not to post or transmit any
defamatory, abusive, obscene, pornographic, threatening or illegal
material or any other material that infringes on the ability of
others to enjoy the Site or that infringes on the rights of others.
You may not post anonymously, post under more than one name or
impersonate any other person. You may permit no person (other than
an agent working on your behalf and subject to your supervision) to
access, using your account, any features of the Site that may
require registration. Users may not post any message to any area of
the Site if that message is, in our view off-topic.
Although Grassroots Films cannot monitor all the postings in the
public areas, we reserve the right (but assume no obligation) to
delete, move or edit any postings that come to our attention that we
consider unacceptable or inappropriate, whether for legal or other
reasons.
You agree to assume full and sole responsibility for any postings
you make to the Site. Grassroots Films expects that you will not use
the service to violate anyone's copyright, trademark, intellectual
property, or other rights. By submitting material to the Site, you
are representing that you are the owner of the material, or that you
have obtained any permissions or releases necessary to ensure that
posting the material neither violates the rights of any person or
entity nor creates any liability for the Site. Submitting material
that is the property of another, without the consent of its owner,
is not only a violation of this agreement, but may also subject you
to legal liability for infringement of copyright, trademark or other
intellectual property rights.
All users shall use the Site for lawful purposes only. You agree not
to post or transmit through the Site any material that is unlawful,
threatening, abusive, defamatory, invasive of privacy or publicity
rights, vulgar, obscene, or profane. You agree not to post or
transmit through the Site any material that encourages criminal
conduct or that may give rise to civil liability. You agree not to
post or transmit through the Site any material or text which
constitutes advertising or solicitation with respect to any product
or service, unless expressly authorized in writing by Grassroots
Films to do so. From time to time users post their email addresses
in our public-posting areas. You agree not to gather these email
addresses for purposes of spamming, (sending unsolicited email).
Conduct by any user that, at the discretion of Grassroots Films,
restricts or inhibits any other user from using or enjoying the Site
will not be permitted. Grassroots Films reserves the right to refuse
access to the Site to any user for any reason, including, without
limitation, a reasonable belief that the user in question has
violated these Terms or any of the copyright or trademark laws of
the United States.
CAUTION: ANY ATTEMPT BY ANY PERSON TO DELIBERATELY DAMAGE THE SITE
IS A VIOLATION OF CRIMINAL AND CIVIL LAWS. SHOULD SUCH AN ATTEMPT BE
MADE, GRASSROOTS FILMS RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SEEK DAMAGES FROM ANY
SUCH PERSON TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
