Terms of Service

A. These terms of service (“Terms of Service”) are a binding legal agreement between you and I regarding your use of the frogstar.com website and anything available from the website.  This text is written with the assumption that you won't actually read it, however if you are reading this, then that is a moot point.  Please read these Terms of Service carefully. By accessing or using this website, you signify your agreement to these Terms of Service.  If you do not agree to any of these terms, please do not use the Website.  However, since you';re already reading the terms, you are in effect, accepting the terms. If you wish to continue using the Frogstar web site without actually accepting the terms listed here, simply deny you read this and you'll still be OK.  Nothing changes.

B. Since these terms may change as laws require, all we have to do is say you should periodically review the most up-to-date version of the Terms of Service, and apparently we're in the clear. Frogstar has the legal rights to modify or revise these Terms of Service and policies at any time, and you agree to be bound by such modifications or revisions. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to confer any third-party rights or benefits.  IN other words, even having read the rules today means you agree to the rules tomorrow, even if we claim ownership of your first born child in these words.  Isn't legal stuff fun?

The website
A. These Terms of Service apply to all users of the website, including users who are also contributors of picture content, information, and other materials or services on the website, althought technically, only if you admit to having read these terms. (see above)

B. This website contains several links to third party website that are not owned or controlled by Frogstar.  Althgough this should go without saying, the lawyers say we must point out that Frogstar has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third party website. In addition, Frogstar will not and cannot censor or edit the content of any third-party site. By using this website, you expressly relieve Frogstar from any and all liability arising from your use of any third-party website.

Frogstar reserves the right to discontinue any aspect of the website at any time.  I am not sure why I need to include this statement, but I suppose some people might complain if their favourite section is removed.

Comments and Submissions
You understand that when using the website, you will be exposed to User Submissions or Comments from a variety of sources, and that Frogstar is not responsible for the accuracy, usefulness, safety, or intellectual property rights of or relating to such User Submissions. You further understand and acknowledge that you may be exposed to User Submissions that are inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or objectionable, and you agree to waive, and hereby do waive, any legal or equitable rights or remedies you have or may have against Frogstar with respect thereto, and agree to indemnify and hold Frogstar, its owners, operators, affiliates, and/or licensors, harmless to the fullest extent allowed by law regarding all matters related to your use of the website.  You are free to laugh at these, but not complain about them legally.  Of course, since you may deny reading this, you may complain anyway.

Submissions
You may submit picture content (“User Pictures”) and textual content (“User Comments”) to Frogstar. User Pictures and User Comments are collectively referred to as “User Submissions”. You understand that whether or not such User Submissions are published, Frogstar does not guarantee any confidentiality with respect to any User Submissions.  Email addresses may be harvested and images may be stolen and used elsewhere by people who claim not to have read the Terms that say they shouldn't be doing so.  Since many of the images and text files here have been taken from other sources too, I am hardly in a position to disallow or control it for your content.  It's the Internet.  Stealing seems to be the norm for many.

You shall be solely responsible for your own User Submissions and the consequences of posting or publishing them. In connection with User Submissions, you affirm, represent, and/or warrant that: you own or have all the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and authorize Frogstar to use republish your submissions.  Don't send me stuff I'll get in trouble for including.

For clarity, you retain all of your ownership rights in your User Submissions. However, by submitting User Submissions to Frogstar, you hereby grant Frogstar a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicenseable and transferable license to use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, display, and perform the User Submissions, including without limitation for promoting and redistributing part or all of the website (and derivative works thereof) in any media formats and through any media channels. You also hereby grant each user of the Website a non-exclusive license to access your User Submissions through the website, and to use, reproduce, distribute, display and perform such User Submissions as permitted through the functionality of the website and under these Terms of Service.  For the most part, using it beyond this web site probably won't happen, but it sounds impressive to think I'll include your submissions in the BOOK or MOVIE adaptation of Frogstar.com or other future off-site promotions, so almost all Terms include it.  It just means you own your submissions, but In can do whatever I want with them.  Seems a little silly.

In connection with User Submissions, you further agree that you will not submit material that is copyrighted, protected by trade secret or otherwise subject to third party proprietary rights, including privacy and publicity rights, unless you are the owner of such rights or have permission from their rightful owner to post the material and to grant Frogstar all of the license rights granted herein.  Only I can do that.  That way, I'm blamed for things I've done, not blamed for things you've done.  However, if you do submit images that have copyright, don't cleaim they are your own, and just deny having read this agreement.

Frogstar does not endorse any User Submission or any opinion, recommendation, or advice expressed therein, and Frogstar expressly disclaims any and all liability in connection with User Submissions. Frogstar tries to not use copyright infringing content and infringement of intellectual property rights on its Website, and Frogstar will remove all Content and/or User Submissions if properly notified that such Content or User Submission infringes on another’s intellectual property rights. Frogstar reserves the right to remove Content and User Submissions without prior notice.

If you provide feedback to us regarding the website, Content, or User Submissions (“Feedback”), you authorize us to use that Feedback without restriction and without payment to you. Accordingly, you hereby grant to us perpetual and irrevocable license to use the Feedback for any purpose.  In fact, some of the best content in the email fights and odd email section is based on idiots sending me complainst or comments.  This will expand wityh the new Frogstar style I am sure.  Making fun of complainers has always been one of my favourite activities.

Termination Policy
Frogstar reserves the right to decide whether Content or a User Submission is appropriate and complies with these Terms of Service for violations other than copyright infringement and violations of intellectual property law, such as, but not limited to, obscene or defamatory material. Frogstar may remove such User Submissions and/or terminate a User’s access for uploading such material in violation of these Terms of Service at any time, without prior notice and at its sole discretion.  This should not come as any surprise to you.  You have no rights, and I am the god of all that is Frogstar.  Everything on the site shoulkd conform to the #1 of the site:  Content that made me smile.

Copyright Infringement
I do not deny that copyright material may exist on this web site in the colections section of the site.  Audio clips, MP3 files, images and text files may have been submitted or found on other web sites without clear copyright information or authorship provided.  It has never been my intent to profit from this type of theft.  Where possible, I have given credit or links to other web

If you are a copyright owner or an agent thereof and believe that any User Submission or other content infringes upon your copyrights, you may notify me in any official means, and I will remove  it.  Send a statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and 
a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. 

The website are controlled and offered by Frogstar from it's home office in Canada, despite being hosted on a web server in the United States of America. Frogstar makes no representations that the website is appropriate or available for use in other locations. Those who access or use the website from other jurisdictions do so at their own volition and are responsible for compliance with local law.  I am not aware of any countries that outlaw humour, but I fully admit this ignorance is not a rule.  If it is illegal to view funny pictures or listen to funny sound clips in your area, please stop doing it and don't get me in trouble for offering it on a world-wide medium.

Privacy
Frogstar may collect registration and other information about you through the website. Frogstar’s collection, use, and disclosure of this information is governed by the Frogstar Privacy Policy available somewhere else.  We also want you to be aware that other people outside our control may be reading your submissions and email addreses and harvesting them so they may send you unsolicited email offering you a better mortgage or larger penis.  This irritatuion is in no way unique to Frogstar, but exists on every web site that acceopts user submissions and publsihes email addresses online.  I am sad about this actually.  They've kind of destroyed my trust a little by doing so.

Ability to Accept Terms of Service
Apparentlky, all of the above is irelivant and voided unless you are either over the age of 15 or an emancipated minor, or possess legal parental or guardian consent, and are fully able and competent to enter into the terms, conditions, obligations, affirmations, representations, and warranties set forth in these Terms of Service, and to abide by and comply with these Terms of Service. In any case, you affirm that you are over the age of 13, as the website are not intended for children under 13. If you are under 13 years of age, then please do not use the website. There are lots of other great web sites for you. Talk to your parents about what sites are appropriate for you.  There may be at least a few exposed nipples, bloddy gore in animals, and the occasional use of words like fuck or cunt.  If you are under 13, and continue to read or access this web site, please deny having read these Terms of Agreement and take the blame yourself.  I can hardly be responsible for you.  If you are over 13 and still offended by tits, blood and motherfucker, then I still don't think I should be held responsible, but will admit I do not know the law well enough to say.  To be fair, this web site is far more offencive than many I am sure you've visted before, or after your viewing here.  I try to be light and fun - not offencive.

Email Communication
By using the website, you consent to receiving electronic communications from Frogstar. These communications will include notices about your account and information concerning or related to the website. I will do my best to make these communications useful, and not worthy of being called spam or junk mail.

Contacting Frogstar
If you have any questions or concerns about these Terms of Service or the website, please send us a thorough description by email to contact@frogstar.com 

In summary - please don't sue me.  I'm just trying to have some fun, and share some smiles.  We take life too seriously sometimes.
