EIN Presswire Terms of Service

Effective June 1, 2019

1. Welcome to EIN Presswire

Thanks for using our services (“Services”). The Services are provided by Newsmatics Inc., dba EIN Presswire (“EIN Presswire”, or “We”), an independent privately-held company in the state of Maryland with offices in Washington, DC, and Prague, Czech Republic. For information about how to contact EIN Presswire, please visit our contact page.

By using our Services, you (“You”) are agreeing to these Terms of Service (“Terms”). Please read them carefully.

2. Using our Services

You must follow any policies made available to you within the Services.

Using our Services does not give you ownership of any intellectual property rights in our Services or the content you access. You may not use content from our Services unless you obtain permission from its owner or are otherwise permitted by law. These Terms do not grant you the right to use any branding or logos used in our Services. Don’t remove, obscure, or alter any legal notices displayed in or along with our Services.

Our Services display some content that is not ours. This content is the sole responsibility of the entity that makes it available. We may review content to determine whether it is illegal or violates our policies, and we may remove or refuse to display content that we reasonably believe violates our policies or the law. But that does not necessarily mean that we review content, so please don’t assume that we do.

Don’t misuse our Services. For example, don’t interfere with our Services or try to access them using a method other than the interface and the instructions that we provide. You may use our Services only as permitted by law. We may suspend or stop providing our Services to you if you do not comply with our terms or policies or if we are investigating suspected misconduct.

In connection with your use of the Services, we may send you service announcements, administrative messages, and other information. You may opt out of some of those communications.

Some of our Services are available on mobile devices. Do not use such Services in a way that distracts you and prevents you from obeying traffic or safety laws.

3. Modifying and Terminating our Services

We are constantly changing and improving our Services. We focus on your satisfaction. We work tirelessly to ensure the best possible results and pledge that we will provide the highest quality of service in a timely and professional manner.

Though, we cannot guarantee search engine ranking results, specific placement or media usage of your press releases. Should you have concerns related to the performance of your press release, please contact us.

We may add or remove functionalities or features, and we may suspend or stop a Service altogether. We may also stop providing Services to you, or add or create new limits to our Services at any time.

You can stop using our Services at any time, although we’ll be sorry to see you go.

4. Your Account

You may need an EIN Presswire account in order to use some of our Services. You may create your own account (it’s free), or an account may be assigned to you by an administrator, such as your employer or educational institution.

When you select a story, you will be linked to the news site on which that story appears.

9. Our Warranties and Disclaimers

We provide our Services using a commercially reasonable level of skill and care and we hope that you will enjoy using them. But there are certain things that we don’t promise about our Services.

12. About these Terms

These Terms control the relationship between EIN Presswire and you. They do not create any third-party beneficiary rights.

We may modify these Terms or any additional terms that apply to a Service to, for example, reflect changes to the law or changes to our Services. You should look at the Terms regularly. We’ll post notice of modifications to these Terms on this page. Changes will not apply retroactively and will become effective no sooner than fourteen days after they are posted. However, changes addressing new functions for a Service or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately. If you do not agree to the modified terms for a Service, you should discontinue your use of that Service.

If you do not comply with these Terms, and we don’t take action right away, this doesn’t mean that we are giving up any rights that we may have (such as taking action in the future).

If it turns out that a particular term is not enforceable, this will not affect any other terms.

Interpretation and enforcement of these Terms shall be governed by the laws of the state of Maryland, USA. You consent irrevocably to personal jurisdiction in the federal and state courts of Maryland, USA for any action arising out of or relating to your use of our Services. The federal and state courts of Maryland shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all such actions. In any such action, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all legal expenses incurred in connection with the action, including but not limited to its costs, both taxable and non-taxable, and reasonable attorney's fees.
