Terms & Conditions

By subscribing to Thoth Learning Systems, you are agreeing to comply with and be bound by the following terms of use. If you do not agree to these terms, you should not enter into a subscription.  The term “TLS” or “us” or “we” or “our” refers to Thoth Learning Systems, the owner of the website.  The term “you” refers to the “customer” or “purchaser” of a personal website.

1. Acceptance of Agreement.
   You agree to the terms and conditions outlined in this Terms of Use Agreement ("Agreement"). This Agreement may be amended at any time by us from time to time without specific notice to you. The latest Agreement will be posted on this Site, and you should review this Agreement prior to subscribing to our services.
2. Network Security.
   Customers may not use their account in an attempt to circumvent user authentication or security of any ISP, host, network, or other account. This includes, but is not limited to, accessing data not intended for the customer, logging into a server or account the customer is not expressly authorized to access, password cracking, probing the security of other networks in search of weakness, or violation of any other organization's Security Policy. Customers may not attempt to interfere or deny service to any ISP, user, host, or network. This includes, but is not limited to, hacking, phishing, flooding, mail bombing, or other deliberate attempts to overload or crash an ISP, host or network. We will cooperate fully with investigations of violations of systems or network security at other sites, including cooperating with Law Enforcement Authorities in the investigation of suspected criminal violations. Users who violate system or network security may incur criminal or civil liability.
3. Spam/Commercial Advertising/Mass Mailing.
   THOTH LEARNING SYSTEMS EXPLICITLY FORBIDS ANY AND ALL TYPES OF MASS MAILING (SPAMMING) THROUGH THIS SITE. You must not use our servers, or any TLS email address in connection with the transmission of spam, flames, mail bombs, or substantially similar, unsolicited email messages. Your account may not be referenced as originator, intermediary, or reply-to address in any of the above. This prohibition extends to the sending of unsolicited mass mailings from another service that in any way implicates the use of the TLS servers or any ThothLearning.com email address. A message is considered unsolicited if it is posted in violation of a newsgroup charter or if it is sent to a recipient who has not requested or invited the message. For purposes of this provision, merely making one's email address accessible to the public will not constitute a request or invitation to receive messages. TLS solely reserves the right to refuse or cancel service to known spammers. TLS reserves the right to determine what violates this policy. As such, any violation may result in cancellation of services without refund.
4. Copyright.
   The content, organization, graphics, design, compilation, magnetic translation, digital conversion and other matters related to this Site are protected under applicable copyrights, trademarks and other proprietary (including but not limited to intellectual property) rights.

You do not acquire ownership rights to any content, document or other materials viewed or accessed through the Site. The posting of information or materials on the Site does not constitute a waiver of any right in such information and materials.  Some of the content on the site is the copyrighted work of third parties.
5. Backup/Restores.
   Although TLS tries to ensure that backups of the entire site are complete and accurate in case of catastropic failure, we cannot restore individual accounts nor guarantee data integrity. TLS recommends that the customer periodically and frequently copy their account content to their local computer.
