If you do not agree to these Terms of Use or our Privacy Policy, do not use this Site. And if you decide not to use this Site for this reason, we want to hear from you so that we may better understand your concerns.

Intellectual Property.

The content and materials made available at this Site, including the Site design and format, are protected by copyright. Thus, the artwork, graphics, layouts, text, photographs, images, articles, designs and other works of authorship on this Site, are the copyrighted property of B&D or of third parties. Except as expressly permitted herein, you may not copy, publish, transmit, distribute, or create derivative works of any portion of the Site without the written permission of B&D (or applicable third-party copyright owner). In addition, the systematic retrieval of data or other content from this Site, whether manually or by an automated program, system, service or device, in order to prepare any collection, compilation, database, or directory is prohibited.

Product names, logos, designs, titles, words, or phrases used on this Site may be trademarks, service marks, or trade names (“Marks”) of B&D, and may not be used without the prior written permission of B&D. Marks owned by other entities not affiliated with B&D may appear on this Site. B&D claims no interest in those Marks. By way of example only, FROM FOUNDER TO CEO and the FROM FOUNDER TO CEO logo are the trademarks/service marks of B&D, and may not be copied or used in any way without the prior written consent B&D. Except as expressly provided herein, no other right or license under any patent, trademark, service mark, copyright is granted to you by B&D.

User Submissions of Content.

Some pages on the Site may allow you to post content to the Site (such as posting comments on our Blog). Please exercise common sense, good taste and sound judgment in doing so. A good rule of thumb is to not post any content which you would not mind seeing in the morning paper associated with your name.

If you choose to post content, you represent and warrant that all content you post, whether directly or indirectly through a third party service (such as Flickr®, or YouTube®), is either your own original work or does not infringe another’s copyright or other intellectual property rights. You also represent and warrant that all content you post does not infringe the intellectual property rights of any third party and does not contain the name, image, or likeness of any individual without their knowledge and consent to such use as contemplated herein.

You also agree that you will not post any content (including the content of any external websites to which you post a link) which is offensive, abusive, defamatory, harassing, threatening, vulgar, sexually explicit, hateful, illegal, invasive of privacy, dangerous, or otherwise objectionable to B&D. You also agree that you will not post content to this Site using any bot, robot, or other automated program, system, service or device. In addition, you agree that you will not post advertising, promotional materials, solicitations, surveys, contests, chain letters, pyramid schemes or similar types of content.

Removal of Content by B&D.

B&D expects users to abide by these Terms of Use with respect to user content, and hopes that users contribute to a robust discussion on relevant topics. However, you understand and agree that B&D will not necessarily pre-screen or review content on a regular basis. B&D is therefore not responsible for user-posted content which violates the Terms of Service.

B&D reserves the right to remove or modify, in its sole discretion, any user-posted content which B&D believes violates these Terms of Use or for any other reason.

You further grant B&D the absolute right and permission to use your name, as displayed or otherwise included in association with any content you post. You also waive any rights to inspect or approve of any specific use of your posted content, waive all related rights of publicity, moral rights, and claims based upon those rights, and release, discharge, and agree to hold harmless and indemnify B&D from any liability or claims of intellectual property infringement or right of privacy or persona violation or infringement which may arise by virtue of such use of your posted content.

BY POSTING TEXT, PHOTOGRAPH, OR VIDEO CONTENT TO THE SITE, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, YOU AGREE TO AND HEREBY INDEMNIFY B&D FROM ANY AND ALL DAMAGES WHICH MAY ARISE: (A) DUE TO YOUR FAILURE TO FULFILL AND COMPLY WITH THE WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS SET FORTH HEREIN; OR (B) FROM B&D’ USE, ALTERATION, REPRODUCTION, SALE, OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTENT IN ANY COMMERCIAL OR NONCOMMERCIAL MANNER.
