The Services contain content owned or licensed by CBP (“CBP Content”) and content provided by third-party providers (such third-party content, the “Third Party Content” and such third-party providers, the “Third Party Content Providers”). For these Terms, CBP Content and Third-Party Content are referred to collectively as “Content”).

These Terms are a binding agreement between you and CBP. Your use of the Services is governed by the version of the Terms in effect on the date you access the Site.

If you are using the Site on behalf of a firm, company, or other legal entity (“Firm”), then such Firm will determine what Content you may access.

  • modify or copy the materials;
  • use the materials for any commercial purpose, or any public display (commercial or non-commercial);
  • attempt to decompile or reverse engineer any software contained on myBusinessCourse website's;

We are committed to keeping the website free from fraud and abuse. To protect our users, the services, and the content provided by this website we do not permit the use of any third-party software, including print screen, screen snipping, "crawlers", bots, browser plug-ins, or browser extensions (also called "add-ons"), that copies, scrapes, modifies the appearance of, or automates activity on the website.

Anyone who is found to use tools for such purposes violates these Terms of Use and is at risk of having their accounts restricted or shut down. We reserve the right to reject all or part of a return or refund request if we detect suspicious or fraudulent activity in violation of these Terms;

This license shall automatically terminate if you violate any of these restrictions and may be terminated by CBP at any time. Upon terminating your use of the Services or upon the termination of this license, you must destroy any downloaded Content in your possession whether in electronic or printed format.

To access the Site or some of the resources it offers, you may be asked to provide certain registration details or other information. It is a condition of your use of the Site that all the information you provide on the Site is correct, current, and complete. You agree that all information you provide to register with this Site or otherwise, including, but not limited to, through the use of any interactive features on the Site, is governed by our Privacy Policy, and you consent to all actions we take with respect to your information consistent with our Privacy Policy.

You also acknowledge that your account is personal to you and agree not to provide any other person with access to this Site or portions of it using your username, password, or other security information.

Disclaimer

The Content on the Site is provided "as is". CBP makes no warranties, expressed or implied, and hereby disclaims and negates all other warranties with respect to the Site and the Content, including without limitation, implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of intellectual property or other violation of rights. Further, CBP does not warrant or make any representations concerning the accuracy, likely results, or reliability of the use of the Content on the Site or otherwise relating to the Content on any sites linked to this Site. CBP does not warrant that the Site will be free from error or that it is free from computer viruses or similar contamination.

Limitations

In no event shall CBP be liable for any damages (including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages; damages for loss of data or profit or due to business interruption); in connection with any error, omission, inaccuracy, defect, failure of performance, delay in operation or transmission, system failure or computer virus, even if CBP is advised of the possibility of such damages, losses or expenses. Because some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on implied warranties or limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages, these limitations may not apply to you. If, notwithstanding the above limitation of liability, CBP is found liable for any loss or damage relating to the use of the Site, you agree that your sole remedy, and the sole liability of CBP, shall not exceed the total amount you have paid to CBP in connection with the Site in the then most recent 12-month period. You and CBP agree that any cause of action arising in relation to the Services must commence within one (1) year after the relevant breach of other event giving rise to your claim occurs, otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.

You agree and acknowledge that CBP has offered its Services, set its prices, and entered into these Terms in reliance upon the disclaimers and limitations of liability set forth in these Terms, that the disclaimers and the limitations of liability set forth herein reflect a reasonable and fair allocation of risk between you and CBP, and that the disclaimers and the limitations of liability set forth herein form an essential basis of the bargain between you and CBP. CBP would not be able to provide the Services to you on an economically reasonable basis without these limitations

Revisions and Errata

CBP does not review any of the Third-Party Content and takes no responsibility whatsoever for such Third-Party Content, which is entirely a matter between you and the third party providing such Third Party Content. You agree that CBP is acting purely as a conduit in this regard, providing information through the Site as a convenience and that you do not expect CBP to exercise any degree of editorial control or discretion over such Third-Party Content. CBP may discontinue making any Third-Party Content available on the Site upon the request of the applicable Third Party Provider.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be limited or eliminated from these Terms to the minimum extent necessary and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Services are not available where it is illegal to use, and CBP reserves the right to refuse and/or cancel the provision of the Services to anyone at its own discretion.
