The Sites are provided by the Foundation to the person accessing the Sites (“you” or “your”).

The Foundation has created this privacy policy to explain what information we gather from you when you visit our Sites or otherwise interact with us, how we may use this information, to whom and under what circumstances we may disclose it, and the security approaches we use to protect your information (this “Privacy Policy”). As used in this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” includes anything that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could be reasonably linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household. Your access to, and use of, the Sites is also subject to the Foundation’s Website Terms of Use, available at uniform resource locator (as such terms of use may be modified from time to time as described therein, the “Terms of Use”).

This Privacy Policy is incorporated and made part of the Foundation’s Terms of Use.

By using the Sites, you consent to the collection, use, processing, transfer, and disclosure of your information by the Foundation in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the Privacy Policy, please do not visit or use the Sites. We may modify this Privacy Policy at any time and will post the current version on the Sites. We encourage you to periodically review our Privacy Policy to stay informed about how we are using the information we collect.

The Sites are provided by the Foundation to the person accessing the Sites (“you” or “your“).

1. You Agree to These Terms by Using the Sites

Your access to, and use of, the Sites is subject to the following terms of use (these “Terms of Use“) and all applicable laws and regulations.  By accessing and using any of the Sites, you indicate that you understand and intend the Terms of Use to be the legal equivalent of a signed, written contract and equally binding, and you accept, without limitation or qualification, these Terms of Use. These Terms of Use supersede all prior agreements or arrangements.  The Foundation may, at any time and without notice, modify these Terms of Use by revising them on the Sites.  Your continued use of the Sites constitutes your acceptance of any such revisions. You should therefore periodically visit this page to review the current Terms of Use.  You may not modify these Terms of Use except in a writing signed by the Foundation.

If you do not agree and accept, without limitation or qualification, these Terms of Use, you must exit the Sites immediately. We may immediately terminate these Terms of Use with respect to you (including your access to our services) if you fail to comply with any provision of these Terms of Use.

In addition, when utilizing the grant or other opportunities and/or services made available on behalf of the Foundation or its affiliates, you may be subject to additional restrictions, terms and conditions, guidelines, or rules applicable to such opportunities and/or services, which may be (a) posted from time to time on the applicable portions of the Sites, (b) otherwise made available to you in writing by the Foundation, or (c) otherwise mutually agreed in a written (including electronic) agreement (collectively, “Additional Terms“). All such Additional Terms are hereby incorporated by reference into the Terms of Use. In the event of any conflict between any Additional Terms and the Terms of Use, such Additional Terms shall control solely with respect to the applicable opportunities and/or services.

2. Permitted Use of the Sites

The information and materials on the Sites are provided for personal, noncommercial, and general informational purposes. You may use the Sites solely for the purpose of learning about and/or utilizing the Foundation grant or other opportunities and/or services.  You may not use, reproduce, or distribute the text, graphics, downloads, tools, or any other content on the Sites for any other purpose.

For your protection, the Foundation reserves the right to view, monitor, and record activity on the Sites without notice or further permission from you. Any information obtained by monitoring, reviewing, or recording is subject to review by law enforcement organizations in connection with the investigation or prosecution of possible criminal activity on the Sites.

The Foundation reserves the right at any time and for any reason to deny you access to the Sites or any portion thereof, and to terminate this agreement. Termination will be effective without notice. The Foundation reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Sites and/or any information or services provided in connection with the Sites, with or without notice. You agree that the Foundation will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of Sites or any grant or other opportunities and/or services.

3. User Submitted Content

The Sites may, from time to time, offer interactive features that allow users to submit content, communications, data, academic or other records, or other information or materials to the Sites (collectively, “User Content“).  The Foundation does not and cannot review all such User Content, and is not responsible for such User Content.

You acknowledge that by providing the ability to view and distribute User Content on the Sites, the Foundation is merely acting as a passive conduit for such distribution and is not undertaking any obligation or liability related thereto. However, the Foundation reserves the right to block or remove User Content that it determines to be unacceptable to the Foundation in its sole discretion.

Harassment in any manner or form on the Sites, including via email, chat, or by use of obscene or abusive language, is strictly forbidden. Impersonation of others, including a Foundation employee, host, or representative, as well as other members or visitors on the Sites, is prohibited. You may not upload to, distribute, or otherwise publish through the Sites any User Content which is libelous, defamatory, obscene, threatening, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, abusive, illegal, or otherwise objectionable which may constitute or encourage a criminal offense, violate the rights of any party, or which may otherwise give rise to liability or violate any law.

Any User Content received by the Foundation through the Sites will be deemed to include a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, nonexclusive right and license for the Foundation to adopt, publish, reproduce, disseminate, transmit, distribute, copy, use, create derivative works of, display (in whole or part) worldwide, or act on such User Content without additional approval or consideration, in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed for the full term of any rights that may exist in such User Content. You expressly acknowledge and agree that you waive any claim to the contrary. The Foundation may, but will not be obligated to, use and/or provide any author attributions related to, any User Content. Any use of User Content by the Foundation will be subject to the Foundation’s Privacy Policy.

4. Authorization to Submit User Content

By submitting any User Content through the Sites, or otherwise making any User Content available to the Foundation, you hereby represent, warrant, and covenant that (a) you have full power and authority, and have obtained all necessary rights, approvals, authorizations and consents, to provide such User Content to the Foundation and permit the Foundation to use and disclose all User Content in accordance with the terms of these Terms of Use and the Foundation’s Privacy Policy; (b) such provision or making available of User Content to the Foundation is in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations; and (c) all such User Content is accurate and complete.

Without limiting the prior paragraph, you hereby acknowledge and agree that the Foundation and its third-party hosting partners, as applicable, may have access to User Content immediately upon your submitting such User Content through the Sites, regardless of whether any application, renewal, report, or other purpose for which such User Content is submitted has been completed and submitted and, as such, you shall be solely responsible for obtaining all parental and other consents and authorizations required in connection with the submission of such User Content in advance of uploading, submitting, or otherwise making available such User Content to the Foundation.

9. Disclaimer – Warranty

THE SITES AND ALL CONTENT, MATERIALS, SERVICES, AND OPPORTUNITIES ON THE SITES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW, THE FOUNDATION HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

The Foundation does not represent or warrant that the functions contained in the Sites will be uninterrupted or error-free, that the defects will be corrected, or that the Sites or the server that makes the Sites available are free of viruses or other harmful components. The Foundation does not make any warranties or representations regarding the use of the materials in the Sites in terms of their correctness, accuracy, adequacy, usefulness, timeliness, reliability, or otherwise. The Foundation does not make any warranties or representations regarding the security of your Personal Information. Some states do not permit certain limitations or exclusions on warranties, and as such, these limitations and exclusions do not purport to limit liability that cannot be excluded under the law in your usual place of residence.

10. No Guarantee

You hereby acknowledge and agree that the Foundation does not guarantee that applicants will receive any grant or other opportunity and/or service for which it makes a submission, or that any current recipient of a grant or other opportunity and/or service will continue to receive such benefits or services.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Foundation, its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against all losses, expenses, damages, and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from any violation of these Terms of Use or our Privacy Policy or any negligent or wrongful conduct by you or any other person accessing the Sites using any account you register on the Site, including, without limitation, any User Content submitted by you or through any such account.

YOUR USE OF THE SITES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. NEITHER THE FOUNDATION, NOR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, OR DIRECTORS, NOR ANY OF ITS AGENTS OR ANY OTHER PARTY INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING, OR DELIVERING THE SITES OR THEIR CONTENT, ARE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR OTHER DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE USE OF THE SITES WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH DAMAGES. Some states do not permit certain limitations or exclusions on warranties, and as such, these limitations and exclusions do not purport to limit liability that cannot be excluded under the law in your usual place of residence.

13. Third-Party Links

To provide increased value to our visitors, the Foundation may link to sites operated by third parties. However, even if the third party is affiliated with the Foundation, the Foundation has no control over these linked sites, all of which may have separate privacy and data collection practices independent of the Foundation. These linked sites are only for your convenience, and therefore, you access them at your own risk. Without limiting the foregoing, the Foundation specifically disclaims any responsibility if such sites: infringe any third party’s intellectual property rights; are inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading; are not merchantable or fit for a particular purpose; do not provide adequate security; contain viruses or other items of a destructive nature; or are libelous or defamatory.

The Foundation does not endorse the content, or any products or services available, on such sites. Nonetheless, the Foundation seeks to protect the integrity of its website and the links placed upon it, and therefore requests any feedback on not only its own Sites, but for sites it links to as well (including if a specific link does not work).

All content, including, but not limited to, text, graphics, logos, button icons, images, audio clips, digital downloads, data compilations, products, services, documentation, software, trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, and icons provided by the Foundation or featured on the Sites are proprietary to the Foundation or its licensors.

Limited portions of the content on the Sites may be accessed, printed, and downloaded by you on an occasional basis for your own personal, non-commercial use.

Any unauthorized use of the Sites (or any portion thereof) will terminate the permission granted by this license and may violate applicable laws, including copyright law, trademark laws, and commercial regulations and statutes.

15. Trademarks

Without limitation of Section 14 above, nothing contained on the Sites should be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any trademark, service mark, logo, or trade name (collectively, “Trademarks“) displayed or featured on the Sites without the written permission of the Foundation or such third party that may own the Trademarks displayed on the Sites.
