True (referred to herein as “We,” “Us,” or “Our”) operates the TRUE.com website (the “Website”). These TRUE.com Website Terms of Use (“TOU”) govern your access to and use of the Website. We may update these terms periodically; the most recent version is always available by clicking on the “Terms and Conditions” link at the bottom of our Website. By accessing our Website, you agree to these TOU. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use the Website or any of its features.

1. Use of the Website
The Website may include email services, online forums, chat functions, and other interactive applications (collectively, “Website Content”), including material contributed by you and other users. Subject to these TOU, you may use the Website and its content for personal, non-commercial purposes or internal business use—but not for commercial time-sharing, service bureau activities, or similar uses. Certain content or services may have additional terms which will be provided when you access them. In the event of any conflict, those additional terms will govern.

2. Suspension or Termination of Access
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify, temporarily suspend, or permanently discontinue any part of the Website without prior notice. We may also terminate your access to the Website if we believe it is in the best interests of our users or our company. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any such modifications, suspensions, or termination of access.

3. Intellectual Property Rights
All content on the Website—including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, icons, images, audio and video clips, digital downloads, and software—is owned by True or its content suppliers and is protected by United States and international copyright laws. The compilation of all Website Content is the exclusive property of True. You may not reproduce, modify, distribute, create derivative works of, reverse engineer, or decompile any portion of the Website or its software without our prior written consent. Certain software on the Website may be governed by additional end user license agreements that you must adhere to.

4. Website Content Access and Restrictions
A. Downloads: You may only download or copy content explicitly designated for download. For example, content from our “Newsroom” section may be reproduced for editorial purposes in news, trade, or academic publications provided all copyright notices are maintained.
B. Automated Access: You may not use automated methods—such as bots, spiders, or screen scraping tools—to access, monitor, or collect data from the Website in a way that disrupts or degrades its performance or that of our computing systems.

5. Third Party Content and External Links
A. Third-Party Content: The Website may include content provided by third parties for your convenience. We do not endorse or assume any responsibility for such third-party content.
B. External Links: Hyperlinks to external websites are provided solely as a convenience. We are not responsible for the content or practices of these external sites.

6. User-Generated Content
A. Your Content and Responsibilities: You represent that any content you post on the Website does not violate any intellectual property rights of others. By posting content, you grant True a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free license to use, display, and reproduce your content in connection with the Website. You release True from any claims related to our use of your posted content.
B. DMCA Compliance: If you believe your copyrighted work has been posted on the Website in violation of your rights, please refer to our Digital Millennium Copyright Act policy for instructions on how to notify us.
C. Forum Guidelines: While we encourage open discussion, we reserve the right to remove any user posts that contain offensive, misleading, or off-topic content, or that otherwise violate these TOU.

7. Account Registration
Certain sections of the Website may require you to register an account. You agree that any information you provide is accurate and complete, and you are responsible for keeping your account information confidential. Misrepresentation of your identity or affiliation is prohibited.

8. Governing Law and Venue
These TOU are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any legal action arising out of these TOU shall be brought exclusively in the courts located in Los Angeles County, California, or the United States District Court for the Central District of California, and you consent to the jurisdiction of these courts.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Website is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. True makes no warranties, express or implied, regarding the Website’s availability, accuracy, security, or error-free operation. You use the Website at your own risk. True disclaims all warranties, including those of non-infringement, merchantability, and fitness for a particular purpose.

10. Limitation of Liability
In no event will True, its affiliates, or its officers, directors, employees, or agents be liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, or exemplary damages arising from your use of the Website, regardless of the theory of liability—even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability, if any, will not exceed $100. Some jurisdictions may not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

11. Indemnification
