NRIOL - NRI Online
By using NRI Online ("NRIOL"), you (the "User") agree to the terms and conditions listed on this page (the "Terms of Service"). If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, please do not use NRIOL. We reserve the right to change, modify, add or remove portions of the Terms of Service at any time for any reason, without prior notice. If you continue to use NRIOL after we have posted changes to the terms, it means you have accepted those terms. You can review the most current version of the Terms of Service at any time at: https://www.nriol.com/html/terms.asp

Service
NRIOL provides users with access to a wide range of on-line resources (the "Service"). Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that augment or enhance the current Service, including the release of new NRIOL resources or Web sites, shall be subject to these Terms of Service. 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. In addition, you must provide all equipment necessary to make such connection to the World Wide Web, including a computer and modem or other access device.

External Sites
NRIOL may contain hyperlinks to Web sites operated by parties other than us. Such hyperlinks are provided for reference and convenience only. We do not control such Web sites, and are not responsible for their contents. Just because we have hyperlinks to such Web sites does not mean we endorse any of the material on such Web sites or have any association with their operators.

The search technology provided on NRIOL automatically produces search results that reference sites and information located worldwide throughout the Internet. Because we have no control over such sites and information, we make no guarantee as to such sites and information, including the accuracy, currency, content or quality of any such sites and information and we assume no responsibility as to whether the search locates unintended or objectionable content. Furthermore, because some content on the Internet consists of material that is adult-oriented or otherwise objectionable to some people, the results of your search on our sites may automatically and unintentionally generate links or references to objectionable material. We make no claim that such surprises might not occur.

Advertising and Promotions
NRIOL runs advertisements and promotes various products and services offered by third-party vendors, affiliate partners and sponsors (collectively "Vendors"). By using the Service, you agree that NRIOL has the right to run such advertisements and promotions. The manner, mode and extent of advertising and promotions by NRIOL are subject to change. Your correspondence or business dealings with, or participation in promotions of, advertisers and Vendors found on or through the Service, including payment and delivery of related goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such advertisers or Vendors. You agree that NRIOL shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings or as the result of the presence of such advertisers and Vendors on NRIOL.

Online Content and Communication
All areas on the Service are public and not private communications. Chats, postings, conferences, and other communications facilitated by the Service are not endorsed by NRIOL and such communications shall not be considered reviewed, screened or approved by NRIOL. You acknowledge that the opinions and views expressed via the Service do not reflect those of NRIOL. You agree that NRIOL, in its sole discretion, may edit or delete any content displayed, uploaded to, distributed, or otherwise published through the Service. Member Registration
In consideration of use of the Service, you agree to: (a) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Service's registration form (such information being the "Registration Data") and (b) maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or NRIOL has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, NRIOL 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). You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account name/number and/or password. You are responsible for all uses of your account, whether or not actually or expressly authorized by you.

Member Conduct
All information, data, text, software, music, sound, photographs, graphics, video, messages or other materials ("Content"), whether publicly posted or privately transmitted, are the sole responsibility of the person from which such Content originated. This means that you, and not NRIOL, are entirely responsible for all Content that you upload, post, email or otherwise transmit via NRIOL. NRIOL does not control the Content posted via NRIOL and, as such, does not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of such Content. You understand that by using NRIOL, you may be exposed to Content that is offensive, indecent or objectionable. Under no circumstances will NRIOL be liable in any way for any Content, including, but not limited to, for any errors or omissions in any Content, or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any Content posted, emailed or otherwise transmitted via NRIOL. NRIOL does not review, pre-screen or edit Content, but NRIOL and its designees shall have the right (but not the obligation) in their sole discretion to refuse or move any Content that is available via NRIOL. Without limiting the foregoing, NRIOL and its designees shall have the right to remove any Content that violates the Terms of Service or is otherwise objectionable. You agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with, the use of any Content, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of such Content.
