One benefit of the Service is to enable users to meet and interact with other users. To promote community, CollegePower facilitates user interaction and communication by using CollegePower's proprietary community technology ("community algorithm"). The purpose of the community algorithm is to ease the progression for newer community users to become active community participants and to continuously engage all users to use the Services. CollegePower also employs community representatives who, among other tasks, remove pornography, hate-communications and other objectionable material, assist users by answering questions, and help groups, clubs and especially users to become active participants of the community. CollegePower and its community representatives reserve the right to communicate directly with users through any of the community tools provided, as well as to use automation to do some or all parts of their jobs, including the removal or modification of photos, pornography, or hate communications, as well as to communicate with users through the CollegePower Network, mobile phone applications, email communications, or text messaging, with the objective of encouraging users to become active users of the community. For security purposes, community representatives may use simulated or assumed identities, photos and interests in their profiles. You agree that your public profile information, including but not limited to your display name, photograph, interests and greeting may be utilized by the community representatives or community technology to encourage other users to communicate with you or to interact with the Service. If you do not log in to your Account for over forty (40) days (an "Inactive Account"), your Account may be terminated, suspended, or modified without notice to you.

CollegePower provides an opportunity for users to express their own opinions and share information and opinions. Short of certain restrictions listed herein, users are free to post their own opinions, which do not reflect the opinion of anyone at CollegePower, and are not endorsed by CollegePower. Although we will moderate the forum in order to remove objectionable material, we may not always get to it immediately. Therefore, you agree when you register as a Member that you understand all posts reflect the opinion of the poster, not the opinion of CollegePower, and in order to participate, you waive your right to hold CollegePower legally responsible for the content of individual posts.

A. Advertisers and Other Users

Your correspondence or business dealings with, or participation in promotions of, any advertiser and/or third party content provider, Platform Developer (including blog content providers), business entity or person (collectively "Third Party Provider") found on or through the Service, including payment and delivery of related goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such Third Party Provider.

You are responsible for evaluating whether you want to access or use a Platform Application. Your use of each Platform Application may be subject to terms and conditions or a privacy policy that is different from those in this Agreement between you and CollegePower. Therefore, you should review any applicable terms and/or privacy policy of a Platform Application before using it or sharing any information with it, because you may give that Third Party Provider permission to use, share, or own your information in ways CollegePower would not.

CollegePower is not responsible for and does not endorse any features, services, content, advertising, products or other materials on or available from Third Party Providers including Platform Developers and their Platform Applications.
