6. Product and Service Information.
VENOM STEEL may provide new features or information on the VENOM STEEL Site, each of which will be subject to these terms of use. We encourage you to visit the VENOM STEEL Site from time to time to review the new information provided on them to review the current versions of their respective terms of use.
VENOM STEEL shall have no responsibility for errors of any kind on the VENOM STEEL Site, any other site provided by VENOM STEEL, or any Linked Website. Errors may include incorrect product and service descriptions, typographical errors and obsolete information, with the result that product and service descriptions, pricing information and the descriptions of promotional offers or other data may not be complete, current or accurate. Errors may result in the failure to honor an order or request placed by you based on incorrect information. Because actual colors and the “look and feel” you see on the VENOM STEEL Site will depend on your monitor and other technical factors, VENOM STEEL cannot guarantee that any video display of any product information or other data will be accurate at any time.
Products and services described on the VENOM STEEL Site are available only while supplies last, and VENOM STEEL reserves the right to discontinue the production of any product, and to discontinue the offering or sale of any product or service at any time, without notice. The display of, or any reference to, any product or service on the VENOM STEEL Site or any Linked Website does not signify that the product or service is or will be available in the United States. VENOM STEEL also cannot guarantee that any particular product or service displayed on the VENOM STEEL Site will be available through any particular retailer, even if that retailer has indicated that the product or service is available through it or if the retailer is mentioned on the VENOM STEEL Site.
In part to optimize characteristics for specific markets, products and their specifications may vary by territory; accordingly, products displayed or referenced on the VENOM STEEL Site for sale in the United States of America may differ from those products for sale in other territories in the world and user results may therefore differ.
Any prices stated by VENOM STEEL on the VENOM STEEL Site are suggested prices only; all retailer prices accessed by you through the VENOM STEEL Site or otherwise provided to you are subject to change without notice and might not include shipping and handling or any applicable sales taxes or customs duties. Return and refund policies vary by retailer and are not the responsibility of VENOM STEEL. VENOM STEEL will not be a party to any sales transaction or other transaction you may make with any retailer, either online, by telephone or otherwise. VENOM STEEL therefore can make no guarantee that any retailer will fulfill any product order or honor any other commitment, promise or obligation to you.
7. Submissions
Any questions, comments, suggestions, testimonials, endorsements, ideas or similar material disclosed, submitted or posted by you on the VENOM STEEL Site or in connection with them will be considered non-confidential, non-proprietary and not personal either to you or to anyone else. By so disclosing, posting or submitting any such material, you grant to VENOM STEEL and its affiliates a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable and fully sublicensable right to use, reproduce, modify, edit, publish, translate, rework, distribute and display that material without compensation or acknowledgment of source. You may be asked to agree to additional terms upon submission of certain content or materials (e.g., testimonials) to the VENOM STEEL Site, and these terms of use shall in no way limit those additional terms.
If you make a submission, you represent and warrant that you own or otherwise control the rights to your submission. You further represent and warrant that your submission will not contain software viruses, spiders, spybots, commercial solicitation, chain letters, mass mailings, or any other form of spam. You may not use a false name or identity-obscuring or misleading e-mail address, impersonate any person or entity, or otherwise mislead us as to the origin of any submission. You agree to indemnify us for all claims arising from or in connection with any claims to any rights in any submission.
8. Your Information and Privacy Considerations.
From time to time, we may offer users of the VENOM STEEL Site the opportunity to receive information, special offerings, and promotions, and to participate in contests and sweepstakes. We may also solicit requests from users for contact information for others who might be interested in VENOM STEEL products and services.
In order to take advantage of the full capabilities of the VENOM STEEL Site, such as the participation in certain special offerings, clubs, promotions, contests, sweepstakes, and to receive e-mailed information and announcements, you may be asked to send us information about yourself. Providing that information is entirely voluntary on your part and the use and enjoyment of many aspects of the VENOM STEEL Site will still be possible if you elect not to provide that information.
We may use your information to process your requests regarding VENOM STEEL products, services, clubs and programs, to respond to your inquiries and for other purposes specified from time to time on the VENOM STEEL Site. We may also use your information to provide to you information regarding other VENOM STEEL products, services, and promotional activities that may be of interest to you. In addition, if you register for any service, or if you enter any sweepstakes or contest sponsored by VENOM STEEL or featured on the VENOM STEEL Site, we may, in addition to other uses specified in that registration or entry form, use your information to communicate with you regarding your registration or entry. Entry and conduct of all sweepstakes and contests shall be governed by their respective official rules.
We respect your privacy and the privacy of others, and we will, of course, endeavor to take care of any information you supply to us. If you believe, however, that any such information is so private to you or to any other person that possible disclosure would be embarrassing or otherwise inappropriate, we ask that you do not supply that information. We do require, however, that the information you elect to provide to us be true, accurate, current and complete, and we request that you update that information as necessary.
Linked Websites are likely governed by their own confidentiality and privacy provisions. VENOM STEEL is not responsible for those provisions and expressly disclaims any liability relating to any aspect of them, including their enforcement or lack of enforcement.
The submission by you of any information about yourself while using the VENOM STEEL Site constitutes consent by you to the collection, use and disclosure of that information by VENOM STEEL in accordance with these terms of use. The VENOM STEEL Site may use passive information devices, including, without limitation, the collection of Internet IP addresses and navigational data and the use of cookies. Although VENOM STEEL takes reasonable steps to protect information that you may submit to it through the VENOM STEEL Site, VENOM STEEL cannot guarantee the security of that information. You should also bear in mind that Internet transmissions are never completely secure, nor can they be guaranteed error-free. You therefore understand that, by use of the VENOM STEEL Site, you are assuming the security risk for any information that you transmit through it.
Although VENOM STEEL has no obligation to monitor any information provided to the VENOM STEEL Site by users, including information that you provide, VENOM STEEL reserves the right to monitor, retain and disclose that information if required to do so by law or in a good-faith belief that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with legal requirements, to respond to claims that any information violates the rights of third parties, or to protect the rights, property or personal safety of VENOM STEEL, its users or the public.
