Infringement and Third-Party Content

Because the Site allows content to be posted from third parties and third-party websites, there is a chance that the ability to remove any allegedly infringing content will be out of College Nutritionist’s control. While College Nutritionist will make a good faith effort to remove the allegedly infringing content, once content is posted from College Nutritionist to any third-party website, College Nutritionist will have no control or ability to remove such content.  If you believe your copyright has been infringed by a College Nutritionist user posting content from a third-party website or to a third-party website, we strongly suggest you contact the third party or third-party site directly and request the allegedly infringing material be taken down.

If any provision of this Agreement is held unenforceable, then such provision will be modified to reflect the parties’ intention. All remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

18. Relationship

No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement.
