								                    violates the privacy or publicity rights, or infringes the intellectual property and other

								                    proprietary rights, of third parties, or the downloading, copying or use of which is subject to

								                    additional terms and conditions, stated or unstated. PwOSS disclaims any responsibility for any harm

								                    PwOSS does not have any control over those non-pwoss.org websites and webpages, and is not

								                    responsible for their contents or their use. By linking to a non-pwoss.org website or webpage, PwOSS

								                    does not represent or imply that it endorses such website or webpage. You are responsible for taking

								                    precautions as necessary to protect yourself and your computer systems from viruses, worms, Trojan

								                    is your responsibility to check this Agreement periodically for changes. Your continued use of or

								                    of those changes. PwOSS may also, in the future, offer new services and/or features through the

								                    Website (including, the release of new tools and resources). Such new features and/or services shall

								                    be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.<a name="12"></a></p>

								                <h2>9. Termination</h2>

								                <p>PwOSS may terminate your access to all or any part of the Website at any time, with or without cause,

								                    with or without notice, effective immediately. If you wish to terminate this Agreement or your

								                    pwoss.org account (if you have one), you may simply discontinue using the Website. All provisions of

								                    this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination,

								                    including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations

								                    of liability.<a name="13"></a><a name="14"></a></p>

								                <p>&nbsp;</p>

								                <h2>10. General</h2>

								                <p>The Website is hosted in the United States. The Operators make no claims that the Content on the

								                    Website is appropriate or may be downloaded outside of the United States. Access to the Content may

								                    not be legal by certain persons or in certain countries. If you access the Website from outside the

								                    United States, you do so at your own risk and are responsible for compliance with the laws of your

								                    jurisdiction. The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods

								                    will not apply to these Terms. A party may give notice to the other party only in writing at that

								                    party's principal place of business, attention of that party's principal legal officer, or at such

								                    other address or by such other method as the party shall specify in writing. Notice shall be deemed

								                    given upon personal delivery or facsimile, or, if sent by certified mail with postage prepaid, 5

								                    business days after the date of mailing, or, if sent by international overnight courier with postage

								                    prepaid, 7 business days after the date of mailing. If any provision herein is held to be

								                    unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force without being affected in any

								                    way. Further, the parties agree to replace such unenforceable provision with an enforceable

								                    provision that most closely approximates the intent and economic effect of the unenforceable

								                    provision. Section headings are for reference purposes only and do not define, limit, construe or

								                    describe the scope or extent of such section. The failure of the Operators to act with respect to a

								                    breach of this Agreement by you or others does not constitute a waiver and shall not limit the

								                    Operators' rights with respect to such breach or any subsequent breaches. Any action or proceeding

								                    arising out of or related to this Agreement or User's use of the Website must be brought in the

								                    courts of Belgium, and you consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

								                    Any cause of action you may have with respect to your use of the Website must be commenced within

								                    one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arises. These Terms set forth the entire

								                    understanding and agreement of the parties, and supersedes any and all oral or written agreements or

								                    understandings between the parties, as to their subject matter. The waiver of a breach of any

								                    provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.<a

								                <h2>11. Links to Other Materials</h2>

								                <p>The Website may contain links to sites owned or operated by independent third parties. These links

								                    are provided for your convenience and reference only. We do not control such sites and, therefore,

								                    we are not responsible for any content posted on these sites. The fact that the Operators offer such

								                    links should not be construed in any way as an endorsement, authorization, or sponsorship of that

								                    site, its content or the companies or products referenced therein, and the Operators reserve the

								                    right to note its lack of affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement on the Website. If you decide to

								                    access any of the third party sites linked to by the Website, you do this entirely at your own risk.

								                    Because some sites employ automated search results or otherwise link you to sites containing

								                    information that may be deemed inappropriate or offensive, the Operators cannot be held responsible

								                    for the accuracy, copyright compliance, legality, or decency of material contained in third party

								                    sites, and you hereby irrevocably waive any claim against us with respect to such sites.</p>
