B. Licensing

I provide you a license, which cannot be transferred or sold, to access and utilize the features of this website on any appropriate device, such as a desktop computer, a mobile phone, or other Internet-connected devices. This does not make you an owner or stakeholder, in part or full, of the features on this site, only the recipient of a license to utilize it.

I provide you the right to access and utilize the features that are specifically offered to you through the interface of this website, and you may continue to use these features as long as you abide by these terms. You do not have the right to access and utilize features that have not been specifically offered to you. Some features may be offered without requiring an account, but other features may require you to create and maintain an account on this site to access and offer them. Accounts are discussed more in section C. You may use these features for personal, commercial, governmental, or other means, as long as that usage does not go against these terms. You may also not use these features for the means of performing or organizing illegal acts. You also have a right to your privacy, as outlined in section F and as outlined through the laws and regulations that may apply to you, as outlined in section J. This does not guarantee you any other rights in relation to this site. I reserve all other rights.

You are not allowed to sublicense, sell, rent, lease or transfer your access of this site to another individual, business, or customer.

If you perform actions that do not abide to these terms, if you do not wish to abide to these terms, or if we declare you as not abiding to these terms, you must cease all usage of this site, including accessing and utilizing all features. You must delete all accounts that you have ownership of, in part or full, although you do have the right to download all data in relation to your account(s) before deleting. Abiding to these terms is required to access and utilize this site and the features that are offered. If these terms are replaced by new terms, abiding to the new terms is required to continue usage of this site, as outlined in section K.

I may provide and display to you an abridged version of these terms. The abridged version I display is for your convenience and to educate you about these terms. The abridged version does not replace these full terms as the terms you must abide to. You must still abide to these terms even if you are only displayed the abridged version of these terms. Jacob Huempfner is obligated to provide to you a method to view these full terms.

In the situation of any discrepancies or confusion, the Current Terms, as defined in section A, will be the reference used in regard to interpretation and adherence, and will be considered the most complete version of the terms that must be abided to. I may make publicly available older versions of the terms, but I am obligated to indicate which version is the current one which be used as the reference, as defined in section A.

These terms (or Current Terms) and this license apply additionally to all updates, supplements, and other content that is provided to you through the usage of this website.

These terms (or Current Terms) function as the entire agreement beyween you and Jacob Huempfner, unless expressed otherwise in a written form.

C. Usage / Account

I permit you to utilize all functionality of this site that is accessed via standard means (such as logging into your account, and interacting with the GUI this site provides). We reserve the ability to determine if any usage is against these terms, and thus declare you as not abiding by these terms. You may not utilize this site in any way that is considered against the law.

By creating and maintaining an account on this site, you agree to abide to these terms fully. To create and maintain an account, you must provide certain information, including your email address and your date of birth. I must collect and store this information in order to have you maintain an account on this site. You agree that the information you provide in your account is accurate fully to the extent of which you are aware. You may not create and maintain an account while providing information that is false or incorrect. You must be at least 13 years of age to create an account, which I enforce by requiring all users to provide their date of birth. If you provide a false date of birth, and/or are not at least 13 years of age, then you are not abiding by these terms as agreed and must cease usage of the site as outlined in section B. You agree that the email address you associate the account with is an email address that you have authorized access to, and can be proven by verifying the email address you provide. You may not create an account using an email address that you do not have ownership or authorized access to.

You may own and operate more than one account, and you may also share ownership of an account with one or more individuals, as long as you are agreed to be and identified as one of the owners of the account (such as in a written or verbal agreement between you and the other owners of the account). You may not access or utilize an account that you do not have ownership, in part or full, of. Certain accounts may have access to features that other accounts may not have; you are not allowed to access or utilize features that are not available to the account that you own and are actively using. You are also not allowed to access and utilize features on this site that require an account, if you do not own an account on this site.

I may, without prior warning, require proof of identity to show that you are the owner of a given account; if you refuse to provide proof, I may declare you as not abiding by these terms. I have sole discretion in determining what types of proof of identity I may require, such as proof of ownership of an associated email address, a photo ID, or other means, as long as it something reasonable for a person to provide as proof of identity. I am obligated to not share, store, or in any other way perform additional processing or actions utilizing the proof of identity that you provide. I am limited to using the proof of identity that you provide to ensuring that the account in question is one that you own.

If you share ownership of an account with one or more individuals, all individuals of the account agree to abide to these terms and agree that they have been given opportunity to view these terms for themselves. An individual may not own an account on this site if they have not been given access to these terms. If an individual is provided ownership of this account without being able to see these terms, they must either relinquish ownership of the account or delete the account. I am obligated to provide a consistent means with which these terms (or the Current Terms) may be seen. All individuals must be at least 13 years of age.
