You agree to the terms and conditions outlined in this Terms of Use Agreement (“Agreement”) with respect to My Mountain Town (the “Site”). This Agreement constitutes the entire and only agreement between us and you, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, representations, warranties and understandings with respect to the Site, the content, products or services provided by or through the Site, and the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may be amended at any time by us from time to time without specific notice to you. The latest Agreement will be posted on the Site, and you should review this Agreement prior to using the Site.

1. Posts are moderated for personal identifiable information, spam, or any other material that may violate any applicable laws. The point is to have fun but keep the forum safe. We do our best to keep the Site safe, but we cannot guarantee it. We require that:

• You will not collect users' content or information, or otherwise access My Mountain Town, using automated means (such as harvesting bots, robots, spiders, or scrapers) without our prior permission.
• You will not engage in unlawful multi-level marketing, such as a pyramid scheme, on the Site.
• You will not upload viruses or other malicious code.
• You will not solicit login information or access an account belonging to someone else.
• You will not bully, intimidate, or harass any user.
• You will not post content that: is hate speech, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence.
• You will not develop or operate a third-party application containing alcohol-related, dating or other mature content (including advertisements) without appropriate age-based restrictions.
• You will not use My Mountain Town to do anything unlawful, misleading, malicious, or discriminatory.
• You will not do anything that could disable, overburden, or impair the proper working or appearance of My Mountain Town, such as a denial of service attack or interference with page rendering or other My Mountain Town functionality.
• You will not facilitate or encourage any violations of this Statement or our policies.

We encourage you to help us keep spam off the site by reporting posts to administrators.

2. Please be aware that we may censor certain words ourselves. Pictures containing censored words may be edited also.

3. Some posts may be merged into another topics or moved to another part of the site by moderators if they are identical/similar topics, or go too far off topic, in order to keep site content organized. Duplicate posts may be removed by moderators.

4. This Site contains links to other websites. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy or opinions express in such websites, and such websites are not investigated, monitored or checked for accuracy or completeness by us. Inclusion of any linked website on our Site does not imply approval or endorsement of the linked web site by us. If you decide to leave our Site and access these third-party sites, you do so at your own risk.

5. For newsletters, web pages, news articles, blog posts or other copyrighted content to be inserted into posts: Fair Use Doctrine allows for copying of a minimal portion of text needed to get your point across, unless otherwise stated by the source - a reader should have to click through to read the rest to understand. Users are entirely responsible for their own posts, not My Mountain Town. Posting a link to the content/source is required per Copyright Law. http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl102.html

For certain government documents and press releases, Fair Use Doctrine does not apply and the entire content may be copied. If you have a question concerning this exception, please email us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or send a Private Message to the Mountain Town Road Crew.

We respect the intellectual property of others, and we ask you to do the same. If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), please provide our Copyright Agent the following information:

1. An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest;
2. A description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;
3. A description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Site;
4. Your address, telephone number, and email address;
5. A statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
6. A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your Notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf. Our Copyright Agent for Notice of claims of copyright infringement on the Site can be reached by directing an e-mail to This email address is being protected from spambots.

If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, you may send our Site a counter-notice. All notices with respect to our website should be sent to the our Site Copyright Agent. We suggests that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. You expressly acknowledge and agree that our Site shall not be liable to you under any circumstances for declining to replace material. Also, be aware that there can be penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

6. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless our Site from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney's fees) arising from: (i) your use of and access to the Service; (ii) your violation of any term of these Terms of Service; (iii) your violation of any third party right, including without limitation any copyright, property, or privacy right; or (iv) any claim that one of your Submissions caused damage to a third party. This defense and indemnification obligation will survive these Terms of Service and your use of the Service. Remember when posting you are responsible for any comments made on this Site by you. A good rule of thumb is to never post anything on the Site that you would not want to be read in a newspaper as once it's on the internet it's out there.
