1. ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS OF SERVICE. Open Models Valuation Company LLC (collectively "OMV") provides online access to information and resources relating to the modeling, quantification and analysis of financial risk through access to our Portal (the "Service"). The Service is owned and operated by OMV and is provided to registered users of the Service ("Members") under the terms and conditions of the Terms of Service and any operating rules or policies that may be published from time to time by OMV (collectively, the "Terms").
ALTHOUGH ONLY MEMBERS MAY USE THE SERVICE, VISITORS MAY ACCESS CERTAIN PORTIONS OF OUR WEBSITE FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES AND ARE SUBJECT TO ALL OF THE TERMS.
BY CLICKING THE "ACCEPT TERMS" BUTTON BELOW OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU ARE INDICATING YOUR AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE TERMS APPLICABLE TO MEMBERS, IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE A MEMBER. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT ALL OF THE TERMS, DO NOT CLICK ON THE "ACCEPT TERMS" BUTTON AND DO NOT ACCESS THE SERVICE.
2. ELIGIBILITY FOR MEMBERSHIP. The Service is available to (i) individuals who are either engaged in a business relationship with OMV, clients of OMV or considering a business relationship with OMV, and (2) corporations and other business entities that are modeling partners or clients of OMV (each a "Company") and their designated employee(s) as indicated in the registration form (each, a "Designated Employee") who are at least 18 years of age, complete the registration form and can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. If you do not qualify, please do not attempt to use the Service. The Company and each Designated Employee shall each be considered a Member under the Terms. A Designated Employee shall at all times be deemed to be acting on behalf of the Company with which such Designated Employee is associated. In the event that a Designated Employee ceases to be an authorized representative of the Company (whether due to termination of employment or otherwise), the Company shall notify OMV immediately. Such notification shall be in writing and shall include the name of such Designated Employee, the effective date that he or she ceases to be an authorized representative of the Company and, if applicable, the appointment of any new Designated Employee for the Company. Upon issuance of a reply notice by OMV acknowledging the change in OMV's authorization records, such former Designated Employee shall no longer be deemed to be a Member. OMV shall be entitled to rely on any notice it receives from a Member. OMV may refuse to offer the Service to anyone and may change its criteria for membership in the Service at any time, in its sole discretion.
3. REGISTRATION. In order to participate in the Service, the Member must: (1) provide all equipment, including a computer and modem, necessary to establish a connection to the World Wide Web; (2) provide for Member's own access to the World Wide Web; (3) pay any telephone or other service fees associated with such access; (4) provide certain current, complete and accurate information about Member as prompted by the registration form; and (5) maintain and update such registration information ("Registration Data") as required to keep such information current, complete and accurate. If any Registration Data that any Member provides is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, OMV retains the right to terminate Member's account and Member's rights to use the Service.
4. MODIFICATIONS TO TERMS. OMV may change the Terms from time to time. Upon any change in the Terms, OMV will post the amended Terms on this site. The amended Terms shall automatically become effective ten (10) days after they are posted on this site. The Terms may not otherwise be amended, except in a writing signed by OMV and the Member. The Terms were last revised on February 24, 2015. Member's continued use of the Service after the posting of the amended Terms on this site constitutes Member's affirmative: (a) acknowledgement of the Terms and its modifications; and (b) agreement to abide by and be bound by the Terms, as amended.
5. MODIFICATIONS TO SERVICE. OMV reserves the right to modify or discontinue the Service, or any features or portions thereof, temporarily or permanently, with or without notice to Member, and is not obligated to support or update the Service. Member acknowledges and agrees that OMV shall not be liable to Member or any third party in the event that OMV exercises its right to modify or discontinue the Service or any features or portions thereof.
6. OMV IS ONLY A FORUM. As part of the Service, OMV provides access to online forums where Members can exchange information and have discussions with other Members through online bulletin boards, chat rooms and e-mail forums (the "Public Forums"). As a result of OMV's limited role, it has no control over the truthfulness, accuracy, integrity, or completeness of any information or content posted on or in connection with the Public Forums. Because OMV does not review the substance of any such content or information, Member must be careful in dealing with other Members to avoid fraud and to recognize the possibility that other Members' information may, despite the prohibitions set forth in the Terms, be harmful, inaccurate or deceptive. Because OMV is not involved in Member-to-Member dealings, Member agrees, in connection with any use of the Service: (1) that OMV (and its officers, manager, members, employees and agents) is/are hereby released from any and all claims, demands and damages, of any type and nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with use of the Service by or on behalf of such Member (including without limitation any disputes with other Members relating to the use of the Service or the Public Forums, and disputes arising from representations or omissions by any Member); and (2) to attempt to settle any disputes with such other Member directly.
7. PRIVACY POLICY. Registration Data and other information about Member will be treated in accordance with OMV's Privacy Policy located here [LINK]. OMV will not disclose to any third party the contents of a Member's private data in connection with the Service unless authorized by Member or unless OMV is required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (1) conform with applicable laws or comply with legal process served on OMV; (2) protect and defend the rights or property of OMV or another Member; or (3) enforce the Terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall OMV or its officers, manager, member, employees or agents be liable for any disclosures of Member's private data through the breach or circumvention of firewalls and/or other security measures implemented by OMV to prevent unauthorized access to the Service or private Member information.
8. MEMBER ACCOUNT, PASSWORD AND SECURITY. Access to and use of the Service is through a combination of a unique user name ("User Name") and a password ("Password"). Each Designated Employee will choose his or her own unique User Name and Password. Each Member is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of his or her own User Name and Password. Furthermore, each Member is entirely responsible for any and all activities which occur under his or her User Name and Password, and a Company is entirely responsible for any and all activities of its employees, agents and representatives, whether or not such employees, agents, and representatives are Designated Employees. Member agrees to immediately notify OMV of any unauthorized use of the Service or a Member's account (including unauthorized use of a User Name or Password by any employee, agent, or representative of the Company who is not a Designated Employee) or any other breach of security known to Member, it being understood that the Designated Employee's knowledge shall be imputed to the Company. Unauthorized access to the Service, or to the telecommunications or computer facilities used to deliver the Service, is a breach of the Terms and a violation of law.
9. PARTICIPATION IN PROMOTIONS OF ADVERTISERS. Member may enter into correspondence with or participate in promotions of advertisers promoting their products or services on the Service ("Advertisers"). Member acknowledges and agrees that any such correspondence or participation, including the delivery of and the payment for goods and services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such correspondence or promotions, are solely between Member and Advertiser.
