  1. HOW THESE TERMS APPLY

By using the Services or agreeing to another agreement incorporating these Terms, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, then you are not authorized to use the Services.

Separate written agreements with In The Company Of Us, such as agreements with certain of our advertisers or event sponsors (Other Agreements), may apply to your right to use certain Services. If you are subject to any Other Agreement to use the Services, then the Other Agreement, rather than these Terms, will apply to your use of the Services to which the Other Agreement applies. If an Other Agreement and these Terms conflict, then the terms and conditions in the Other Agreement shall prevail with respect to the conflict.

  1. CHANGES TO TERMS

The Effective Date of these Terms is set forth at the top of this webpage. As we add new features to the Services, we may modify these Terms. When we modify these Terms, we will update the Effective Date and, when reasonably possible, we also will provide you with advance written notice of our changes. We will not make changes that have a material retroactive on your legal rights effect without notice unless we are required to do so by law or to protect the rights of other users. Your continued use of the Services after the Effective Date constitutes your acceptance of the amended Terms. The amended Terms supersede all previous versions of or agreements, notices or statements of or about the Terms. Unless you agree in writing, any change to the dispute resolution provision will not apply to any dispute for which we have actual notice before the Effective Date of the Terms containing the change.

  1. ADDITIONAL TERMS

Additional terms and conditions may apply to certain features of the Services, such as our events or awards programs. When presented to you, you must agree to the additional terms before using the Services to which they apply. These Terms and the additional terms will apply equally unless an additional term is irrevocably inconsistent with these Terms, in which case the additional term will prevail but solely to the extent of the inconsistency.
