Material available on or through other websites may be protected by copyright and the intellectual property laws of the United States and/or other countries. The terms of use of those websites, and not this Website’s Terms of Use, govern your use of that material.
It is E.A. Sween’s policy, in appropriate circumstances and at its discretion, to disable and/or terminate the accounts of users who may infringe or repeatedly infringe the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of E.A. Sween and/or others.
User-Submitted Content
This Website may allow users to post text, images, audio, video, links to other sites or other content to the Website. As a consequence, you may see materials that have been submitted to this Website by individuals not affiliated with E.A Sween. E.A. Sween does not endorse these individuals, nor are we in any way associated with any of the materials that they may post on this Website or link to from this Website. E.A Sween does not have any responsibility or liability of any nature whatsoever arising in connection with any materials provided by these individuals or in connection with any conduct of these individuals.
By submitting any content to this site, you understand and agree that you are giving us a royalty-free, irrevocable, nonexclusive and sublicenseable license to use, reproduce, publish, distribute, perform, display and creative derivative works from any such user submissions, in whole or in part, in any form (including for promotional or marketing purposes).

If you become dissatisfied in any way with this Website or its Terms of Use or Privacy Policy, your sole and exclusive remedy is to stop using this Website and its services. Some states do not allow the disclaimer of implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages, so these provisions may not apply to you. If any portion of these limitation on liability is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction for any reason, then the aggregate liability of E.A. Sween shall not exceed one hundred dollars ($100).
