Website Services
Stonecorner may offer from time to time certain services or features on the Sites (including, without limitation, generate a quote, schedule an appointment, post to message boards, testimonials, videos, social media pages, public forums, event calendars and newsletters) (collectively, the “Services”). The following terms under these Terms pertain to your ability to use the Services made available by Stonecorner on the Sites:
Account Login. Browsing of the Sites’ public pages is currently provided free of charge to any person. However, access to the Services and certain features of the Sites may only be accessible to users having an account with Stonecorner. If you do not have an account, you may sign up for one by accessing the Sites and following the directions for setting up an account. Stonecorner reserves the right to decline to activate an account for any person for any reason. If you have an active account, you may be asked to login to your account before you are able to access certain features of the Sites. You may be able to login to your account using a name and password of a third-party account, such as Facebook or Google, that is associated with your account. You may also be able to login to your account by providing an email address associated with your account. You will then receive an email having a confirmation link in the email. Clicking on the confirmation link automatically logs you in to your account and you will be permitted to view, load, post and use the Services and the specific features of each Stonecorner service for which you have been registered. By logging in and using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read these Terms, understand your rights and obligations, and agree to be bound by these Terms. You acknowledge that certain Services will be provided subject to additional terms and conditions (or a separate written agreement only) and you agree that you will abide by such additional terms and conditions applicable to those Services.
Password Protection. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of the login credentials you use to access your account (e.g., the password to your Facebook or Google account) and protecting against unauthorized use of your password. You also are responsible for all activities that occur using your login credentials. You will immediately notify Stonecorner if your password is lost, stolen, disclosed to an unauthorized third party or otherwise has been compromised or if there is any other breach of security. You must ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. You will be permitted to access only those portions of the Sites for which you have been granted permission to use by Stonecorner.
Account Requirements. In consideration of your use of the Sites and the Services, you agree to: (i) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself; and (ii) maintain and promptly update your account information to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such account information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Sites or the Services or any portion thereof.
Parental Consent. You must certify that you are 18 years of age or older. If you are under the age of 18, then your parent or legal guardian may establish an account for each minor child who may use the Services. In such event, the parent or legal guardian must certify that he or she is at least 18 years old and that he or she is the parent or legal guardian of the child/children listed on the account. The parent or legal guardian also must provide his or her contact information. By creating an account for a minor, the parent or legal guardian gives your minor child permission to access all of the Sites and the Services. As the legal guardian or parent, it is your responsibility to determine whether any of the Sites and the Services and/or information contained on the Sites is appropriate for the minor child and whether the minor child should participate in any feature of the Sites or Services, including without limitation the message boards, blogs or chatrooms. You should understand that we may disclose any activity under the minor child’s account to the parent or legal guardian.
