The TOU include and incorporate additional terms ("guidelines") applicable to particular categories or services available on Learnamic as set forth to users upon access to such categories or services. Learnamic may post changes to the TOU at any time, and any such changes will be applicable to all subsequent access to or use of Learnamic.

If you do not accept and agree to all provisions of the TOU, now or in the future, you may reject the TOU by immediately terminating all access and use of Learnamic, in which case any continuing access or use of Learnamic is unauthorized.

2. MODERATION

Learnamic has the right, but not the obligation, to regulate content (which includes but is not limited to postings, text, code, images, video, binary files, ads, accounts, account information, flags, emails, messages and any other user communications ("content")) posted to, stored on or transmitted via Learnamic by any user (or any other third party in any manner); to regulate conduct (including but not limited to any authorized or unauthorized access to or use of Learnamic) by any user (or any other third party in any manner); and to enforce the TOU, for any reason and in any manner or by any means that Learnamic, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or appropriate (including but not limited to automated and manual screening, blocking, filtering, exclusion from index pages, exclusion from search results, requiring the use of an application programming interface (API), requiring the use of a bulk posting interface, authorization, verification, and the deletion and/or termination of content, accounts and/or all or any use or access). Learnamic may, in its sole discretion and without notice, start, stop or modify any regulation or enforcement measures at any time. Learnamic action or inaction to regulate content or conduct or to enforce against any potential violation of the TOU by any user (or any other third party) does not waive Learnamic's right to implement or not implement regulation or enforcement measures with respect to any subsequent or similar content, conduct or potential TOU violation.

You also understand and agree that any action or inaction by Learnamic or any of its directors, officers, stockholders, employees, consultants, agents or representatives (collectively, "Learnamic Representatives") to prevent, restrict, redress or regulate content, or to implement other enforcement measures against any content, conduct or potential TOU violation is undertaken voluntarily and in good faith, and you expressly agree that neither Learnamic nor any Learnamic Representative shall be liable to you or anyone else for any action or inaction to prevent, restrict, redress, or regulate content, or to implement other enforcement measures against any content, conduct or potential violation of the TOU.

Although Learnamic Representatives may moderate content, conduct and TOU compliance on Learnamic at Learnamic's discretion, Learnamic Representatives have no authority to make binding commitments, promises or representations to anyone that they or anyone else on behalf of Learnamic will "take care" of any alleged problem or complaint, or that they or anyone else on behalf of Learnamic will otherwise stop, cure or prevent any problem, content, conduct or purported TOU violation from occurring or recurring. Accordingly, you further agree that any representation (written or verbal) by any Learnamic Representative (or by anyone else acting on behalf of Learnamic or by anyone purportedly acting on behalf of Learnamic) that Learnamic (including but not limited to any Learnamic Representative, anyone else acting on behalf of Learnamic, or anyone purportedly acting on behalf of Learnamic) would or would not prevent, restrict, redress or regulate content (including, without limitation, screen, block, moderate, review, remove, terminate, delete, edit or otherwise stop, cure or exclude any content), or to implement other enforcement measures against any content, conduct or potential or purported TOU violation is superseded by this provision and is nonbinding and unenforceable. Specifically, you agree that Learnamic, Learnamic Representatives and anyone else authorized to act on behalf of Learnamic shall in no circumstance be liable as a result of any representation that Learnamic, a Learnamic Representative or anyone else on behalf of Learnamic would or would not restrict or redress any content, conduct or potential or purported TOU violation. This paragraph may not be modified, waived or released except by a written agreement, dated and signed by Learnamic's Chief Executive Officer and dated and signed by the individual or entity to whom the modification, waiver or release is granted.

Learnamic also has the right in its sole discretion to limit, modify, interrupt, suspend or discontinue all or any portions of Learnamic at any time without notice. Learnamic and Learnamic Representatives shall not be liable for any such limitations, modifications, interruptions, suspensions or discontinuance, or any purported losses, harm or damages arising from or related thereto.

11. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

You acknowledge and agree that any violation or breach of the TOU may cause Learnamic immediate and irreparable harm and damages; consequently, notwithstanding any other provision of the TOU or other applicable legal requirements, Learnamic has the right to, and may in its discretion, immediately obtain preliminary injunctive relief (including, without limitation, temporary restraining orders) and seek permanent injunctive relief regarding any violation or breach of the TOU.
