  • Unless you are participating in an area of the site that requires or encourages anonymity, use your real name in online communications. (Parents, if you are concerned about your child’s use of this site, please see our Privacy Statement.)

  • You may not post or transmit any message which is libelous, defamatory or which discloses private or personal matters concerning any person. You may not post or transmit any message, data, image or program which may be deemed indecent, obscene or pornographic.

  • You may not post or transmit any message, data, image or program that would violate the property rights of others, including unauthorized copyrighted text, images or programs, trade secrets or other confidential proprietary information, and trademarks or service marks used in an infringing fashion.

  • You may not post or transmit any file which contains viruses, worms, “Trojan horses” or any other contaminating or destructive features.

  • You may not post or transmit any message which is harmful, threatening, abusive or hateful.

  • You may not post or transmit charity requests, petitions for signatures, chain letters or letters relating to pyramid schemes. You may not post or transmit any advertising, promotional materials or any other solicitation of other users of the site for goods or services except in those areas (e.g., a classified bulletin board), if any, that are designated for such purpose.

  • You may not use the facilities and capabilities of the service to conduct any activity or solicit the performance of any illegal activity or other activity which infringes the rights of others.

  • You may not modify, copy, distribute, transmit, display, perform, reproduce, publish, license, create derivative works from, transfer, or sell any information, software, products or services obtained from the site in any manner not allowed for herein.

DISCLAIMER

You understand that RGcannot and does not guarantee or warrant that files available for downloading through the site will be free of infection or viruses, worms, Trojan horses or other code that manifest contaminating or destructive properties. You are responsible for implementing sufficient procedures and checkpoints to satisfy your particular requirements for accuracy of data input and output, and for maintaining a means external to the site for the reconstruction of any lost data. You assume total responsibility and risk for your use of the site and the Internet. RG does not make any express or implied warranties, representations or endorsements whatsoever (including without limitation warranties of title or noninfringement, or the implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose) with regard to the site, any merchandise, information or service provided through the site or on the Internet generally, and RG shall not be liable for any cost or damage arising either directly or indirectly from any such transaction. It is solely your responsibility to evaluate the accuracy, completeness and usefulness of all opinions, advice, services, merchandise and other information provided through the site or on the Internet generally. RG does not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted or error-free or that defects in the site will be corrected. The site and any software made available on the site are provided on an “as is, as available” basis.

The documents and related graphics published on this site may include technical inaccuracies or typographical errors. Changes are periodically made to the information herein. RG and/or its respective suppliers may make improvements and changes in the product(s) or the program(s) described herein at any time.

Some links on this site may let you leave RG’s site. The linked sites are not under the control of RG and RG is not responsible for the contents of the linked site, any linked site contained in a link site, or any changes or updates to such sites. RG provides links to you only as a convenience, and the inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement by RG of the site. You understand further that the Internet contains unedited materials some of which are sexually explicit or may be offensive to you. You access such materials at your risk. RG has no control over and accepts no responsibility whatsoever for such materials.

RG strives to avoid errors in pricing and product information, but mistakes sometimes happen and RG reserves the right to correct them. We apologize for any inconvenience it may cause. In the event an order is placed with RG on an item where an errant price has been advertised, you agree that RG’s sole responsibility to you will be to promptly notify you of the pricing error and allow you the option to either purchase the item at the correct current RG price or choose to withdraw your order of the item that was subject to the pricing error.

LIMITED LIABILITY

Under no circumstances, including, but not limited to, negligence, shall RG be liable for any indirect, special, exemplary, or consequential damages that result from the use of, or the inability to use, the site, the site materials, or the software, even if RG has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Applicable law may not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability or exemplary, incidental, or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. In no event shall RG’s total liability to you for all damages, losses, and causes of action (whether in contract or tort, including but not limited to, negligence, or otherwise) exceed the amount paid by you, if any, for accessing this site. Because some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you. In such states, RG’s liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless RG, its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, suppliers and any third party information providers to the site from and against all losses, expenses, damages and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from any violation of this Agreement by you.
The provisions of these Terms of Use are for the benefit of RG and its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, suppliers, and any third party information providers to the site. Each of these individuals or entities shall have the right to assert and enforce those provisions directly against you on its own behalf.
