You can review the most current version of the TOS at any time at: http://www.activito.com/termsofuse.asp. In addition, when using particular Activito services, you and Activito shall be subject to any posted guidelines or rules applicable to such services which may be posted from time to time. All such guidelines or rules are hereby incorporated by reference into the TOS. Activito also may offer other services from time to time that are governed by different Terms of Services.

2. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE

Activito currently provides users with access to a collection of activities and resources through its network of properties (the "Service"). Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that augment or enhance the current Service, including the release of new Activito properties, shall be subject to the TOS. You understand and agree that the Service is provided "AS-IS" and that Activito assumes no responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store any user communications or personalization settings.

In order to use the Service, you must obtain access to the World Wide Web, either directly or through devices that access web-based content, and pay any service fees associated with such access.

If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or Activito has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Activito has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service (or any portion thereof). Activito is concerned about the safety and privacy of all its users, particularly children.  Please remember that the Service is designed to appeal to a broad audience.

The TOS constitute the entire agreement between you and Activito and govern your use of the Service, superceding any prior agreements between you and Activito. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate services, third-party content or third-party software. The TOS and the relationship between you and Activito shall be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and Activito agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of McLean, Illinois. The failure of Activito to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the TOS is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the TOS remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or the TOS must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.
