to communicate with one another, post Content, and buy/sell
products. The Company does not screen or censor Members.
Furthermore, the Company is not involved in the actual transaction
between Members. As a result, the Company has no control over
the quality, safety or legality of the Content on the Services
or the truth or accuracy of the Content. In addition, note
that there are risks, including but not limited to the risk
of physical harm, of dealing with strangers, foreign nationals,
underage persons or people acting under false pretenses. Since
Member identity verification on the Internet is difficult,
the Company cannot and does not confirm each Member's purported
identity. The Company has a verification system to verify
the identity of Members for paid silver, gold and diamond
members via credit card information, but it is not one hundred
percent (100%) accurate; for basic free members, their identities
are very difficult to verify. Thus, the Company have established
a Member initiated feedback system to help you evaluate with
whom you are dealing. The Company also encourage you to communicate
directly with other Members through the tools available on
the Services. Member assume all risks associated with dealing
with other Members with whom you come in contact through the
Services. You agree, acknowledge and indemnify the Company,
our associates or others, our affiliates, and our directors,
officers, employees, shareholders, and our agents from and
against all liabilities or responsibilities of every kind
and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected,
disclosed and undisclosed, from any and all errors, omissions
or any other actions, including but not limited to problems
arising out of or related to: your registration application
or receipt of or failure to receive a registration or use
of any of the Services or use of the Account or from your
interactions with other Members. You further agree to indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Company, our associates or others,
our affiliates, and our directors, officers, employees, and
our agents from and against any and all claims of any nature
whatsoever (including, but not limited to contractual and
extra-contractual, actual and consequential, direct and indirect,
punitive), damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including
legal fees and expenses) arising out of, or related to, your
registration or use of any of the Services or from your interactions
with other Members. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold
harmless Company, our contractors, agents, employees, officers,
directors, shareholders, affiliates, and assigns for any,
and all loss, liabilities, claims, expenses, damages or costs,
including attorneys' fees, resulting from any third party
claim, action, or demand related to the registration or arising
from this Agreement or use of the Services registered by you
or information posted on Services or from your interactions
with other Members. If you are a California resident, you
waive California Civil Code §1542, which says: "A general

not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing
the release, which if known by him must have materially affected
his settlement with the debtor."
