We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to access the AAG Services for your own personal use, subject to the Terms of Use. Use of the AAG Services beyond the scope of authorized access granted to you terminates this permission.
By accessing the AAG Services, you accept, without limitation or qualification, the following Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy, found here, which are incorporated by this reference. You are only authorized to use the AAG Services if you agree to abide by the Terms of Use and all applicable laws.

We may modify the Terms of Use from time to time and each modification will be effective upon posting on the Site, which serves as notice to you. The Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement regarding your use of the Site or the AAG Services and supersede any such prior Terms of Use. We will attempt to notify all members of changes to these Terms of Use but are not obligated to do so, as it is important that you review the Terms of Use regularly to ensure you are updated as to any changes made. When changes are made, we will indicate at the bottom of this page the date that revisions were made.

You understand that all information, data, text, sound, photographs, graphics, video, messages, software, tags, advertisements or other materials (“Content”), whether publicly posted or privately transmitted, are the sole responsibility of the person from whom such Content originated. This means that you, and not AAG, are entirely responsible for all Content that you upload, post, transmit or otherwise make available through the AAG Services. We do not control the Content posted through the AAG Services and, as such, we do not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of such Content and disclaim any and all liability in connection with such Content. The opinions expressed in postings or other Content provided through the AAG Services are not necessarily those of AAG or its owner, content providers, advertisers, sponsors, affiliated or related entities. You understand that by using the AAG Services you may be exposed to Content that is offensive, indecent or objectionable. You understand that we are not obligated to pre-screen, regularly review, monitor, delete or otherwise change the Content associated with the AAG Services. We do, however, reserve the right to do so at any time in our sole discretion, for any reason or no reason, and to delete any Content with or without notice. Under no circumstances will we be liable in any way for any Content, including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any Content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any Content posted, emailed, transmitted or otherwise made available through the AAG Services.
Responsibility for Your Content (Member Content)
You are solely responsible for the Content you submit or make available for inclusion through the AAG Services (“Member Content”) and the consequences of posting or publishing it. In connection with Member Content, you represent and warrant that you own or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and authorize AAG to use all trademark, copyright or other proprietary rights in and to any and all Member Content to enable inclusion and use of the Member Content in the manner intended by the AAG Services and the Terms of Use; you agree that you will not submit Member Content that violates these Terms of Use.
Because AAG does not permit infringement of intellectual property rights through the AAG Services, we will remove all Member Content if properly notified that such Site Content or Member Content infringes on another’s intellectual property rights and at our sole discretion.
AAG does not endorse any Member Content or any opinion, recommendation, or advice expressed therein, and we expressly disclaim any and all liability in connection with Member Content. You agree that you will not submit Member Content that violates the Rules, found here, or material contrary to applicable local, national, and international laws and regulations.
Member Content: Ownership & Licenses
We do not claim full ownership rights over your Member Content. However, you grant us the following worldwide, royalty-free and non-exclusive license to use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publicly perform and publicly display Member Content through the AAG Services, solely for the purpose for which such Member Content was submitted or made available. This limited license exists for as long as AAG finds it appropriate to use such content. You grant each user of the AAG Services a non-exclusive license to access your Member Content through the AAG Services, and to use, reproduce, distribute, display and perform such Member Content as permitted through the functionality of the AAG Services and under these Terms of Use.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you understand and agree that once Member Content is incorporated into other aspects of the AAG Services by AAG and/or its members, AAG is under no obligation to delete or ask or require other AAG members to delete that Member Content, and therefore, it may continue to appear and be used through the AAG Services indefinitely pursuant to an irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license. You understand and agree that we may retain, but will not display, distribute, or perform, server copies of Member Content that have been removed or deleted.

Membership Fees / Refund Policy
AAG members may have profiles either at a “basic” level (free) or may sign up for a paid membership. AAG charges membership fees for each paid membership account. Paid membership account fees are automatically renewed according to the member’s selected renewal options, unless deactivated by the subscribing member. AAG will automatically charge the membership fee to your designated payment method and you authorize us to charge such payment method for the appropriate membership fees and amounts stated. AAG reserves the right to increase membership fees or to institute new fees at any time upon reasonable notice (a minimum of 30 days) posted in advance on the Site. The act of paying fees does not exclude you from the Terms of Use or the Rules, which must be adhered to by all members.
Membership fees are charged up-front. AAG does not provide refunds or credits for any membership fees. Downgrades to a less expensive membership or cancellation of any membership or termination of any membership will not result in any refund or credit of fees already paid. The cancellation or downgrade of a membership will go into effect at the end of the then-current billing cycle. We may offer other paid services or features associated with the AAG Services, subject to specified terms and conditions, which are incorporated by this reference.

You further acknowledge and agree that we will not be liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the use or reliance on any such content, goods or services available on or through any such website or resource.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer, exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the foregoing disclaimer, exclusion and limitation may not apply to you, and you may have other legal rights that vary according to jurisdiction. In no event will damages provided by law, if any, apply unless they are required to apply by law, notwithstanding their exclusion by contract.
We disclaim all liability for any loss or damage arising out of your communications or dealings with any of the businesses, advertisers, AAG members or users of the AAG Services. Your communications or dealings with such businesses, advertisers, members and users are solely between you and them, although we reserve the right to monitor disputes between you and them.
Our maximum aggregate liability to you for any causes whatsoever, and regardless of the form of action, shall at all times be limited to the greater of (A) the amount paid, if any, by you to us in connection with the AAG Services in the 12 months prior to the action giving rise to the liability, or (B) US$100.00. You and AAG agree that any cause of action arising out of or related to the AAG Services must commence within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues, otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Use will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision.
