User-Provided

By

on, theinfidels.org, including for example communication during
registration, communication on any theinfidels.org bulletin board,
message or chat area, posting any other content, you represent
and warrant: (1) you own or otherwise have all necessary rights

For
all such information and material, you grant theinfidels.org,
a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive right and
license to use, copy, modify, display, archive, store, distribute,

Transactions
and e-commerce on our site.
During
your visit to our site you may elect to engage in a transaction
involving the purchase of a product or the making of a contribution.
To serve you most efficiently, credit card transactions and order
fulfillment are often handled by a third party processing agent,
bank or distribution institution. While in most cases transactions
are completed without difficulty, there is no such thing as "perfect
security" on the Internet or offline. If you're concerned
about online credit card safety, in most cases a telephone number
will be made available so you can call us and place your order
by phone. Theinfidels.org cannot take responsibility for the success
or security of transactions undertaken or processed by third parties.
On
occasion, a product or service may not be available at the time
or the price as it appears in an offer. In such event, or in the
event a product or service is listed at an incorrect price or
with incorrect information due to typographical error, technology
effort, error in the date or length of publication, or error in
pricing or product information received from our suppliers, you
agree theinfidels.org is not responsible for such errors or discrepancies.
Other
Specifics About Interactive Areas (Message Boards, Chat Areas,
etc.).
Theinfidels.org
bulletin boards, chat rooms and other such interactive areas are

the nature of theinfidels.org and the volume of messages and postings,
theinfidels.org cannot and does not monitor all of the material
posted or transmitted by users and third party information providers.
To protect your safety, please use your best judgment when using
these forums. We particularly discourage divulging personal phone
numbers and addresses or other information that can be used to
identify or locate you. If you make such disclosures either through
postings on the bulletin boards, chat rooms, or in other interactive
areas, or to third parties in any communication, you do so fully
understanding the consequences of such disclosures and with a
knowing consent that such information could be used to identify
you. Theinfidels.org reserves the right to delete, move or edit
any communications at any time, for any reason or in its discretion,
but has no obligation to review or remove any such content.
