ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
Welcome to Wanita.netTM. Wanita.netTM provides its
service to you, subject to the following Terms of Service ("TOS"), which
may be updated by us from time to time without notice to you. You can
review the most current version of the TOS at any time at
http://wanita.net. In addition, when using particular
Wanita.netTM services, you and Wanita.netTM shall
be subject to any posted guidelines or rules applicable to such services,
which may be posted from time to time. All such guidelines or rules are
hereby incorporated by reference into the TOS.
DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE
Wanita.netTM currently provides users with access to a rich
collection of on-line resources, including, various communications tools,
online forums, shopping services, personalized content and branded programming
through its network of properties (the "Service"). Unless explicitly stated
otherwise, any new features that augment or enhance the current Service,
including the release of new Wanita.netTM properties shall be
subject to the TOS. You understand and agree that the Service is provided
"AS-IS" and that Wanita.netTM assumes no responsibility for the
timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store any user communications
or personalization settings.
In order to use the Service, you must obtain access to the World Wide Web,
either directly or through devices that access web-based content, and pay any
service fees associated with such access. In addition, you must provide all
equipment necessary to make such connection to the World Wide Web, including
a computer and modem or other access device.

accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the
Service's registration form (such information being the "Registration Data")
and (b) maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true,
accurate, current and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue,
inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or Wanita.netTM has reasonable
grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or
incomplete, Wanita.netTM has the right to suspend or terminate your
account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service (or any
portion thereof).

You understand that all information, data, text, software, music, sound,
photographs, graphics, video, messages or other materials ("Content"), whether
publicly posted or privately transmitted, are the sole responsibility of the
person from which such Content originated. This means that you, and not
Wanita.netTM, are entirely responsible for all Content that you upload,
post, email or otherwise transmit via the Service. Wanita.netTM does not
control the Content posted via the Service and, as such, does not guarantee the
accuracy, integrity or quality of such Content. Under no circumstances will
Wanita.netTM be liable in any way for any Content, including, but not
limited to, for any errors or omissions in any Content, or for any loss or damage

process; (b) enforce the TOS; (c) respond to claims that any Content violates the
rights of third-parties; or (d) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of
Wanita.netTM, its users and the public.
