These Terms of Use (“Terms of Use”) govern your access to and use of this website, including all pages within this website (collectively, this “Website”). The Website is operated by Trusted Partner Network, LLC ( “TPN,” “us” or “we”). The TPN provides the Website, including all information, products, tools, software and services available via the Website, to you, the user, conditioned upon your acceptance of these Terms of Use. PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE WEBSITE, YOU ARE ACCEPTING AND AGREEING TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF USE. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT AND AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF USE, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE WEBSITE.

Features and Functionality Provided by Third Parties; Third Party Terms
Certain content, features and functionality on the Website may be owned and operated by third parties (such third-parties, collectively, “Third Party Providers”; and such content, collectively, “Third Party Content”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms of Use, we may indicate on the Website that certain Third Party Content is subject to separate terms and conditions. You acknowledge that these Terms of Use will not apply to your use of any such Third Party Content.

Privacy Policy
Please review our Privacy Policy for details about the information practices associated with the Website.

Use of Content
The Website, including but not limited to content, text, data, design, graphics, logos, icons, images, photography, video, audio, downloads, interfaces, code, software (including TPN+), systems, processes, products, features and tools, and the design, selection, arrangement and “look and feel” thereof and all intellectual property associated with the foregoing, but specifically excluding Third Party Content (collectively, the “Content”), is the property of TPN or its licensors. Upon your acceptance of these Terms of Use, and subject to your continuous compliance therewith, the TPN grants you a limited, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, revocable license to use the Content for your personal and non-commercial use, only for so long as the Content is made available to you by us (or an authorized third-party), and provided that you do not modify or delete any copyright, trademark or other proprietary notice that appears on the Content. Any other use of the Website or any Content, including but not limited to the modification, reproduction, distribution, transmission, display, performance, broadcast, publication, licensing, reverse engineering, disassembling, decompiling or resale of, or the creation of derivative works from the Website or any Content, is expressly prohibited. Content may be copied or downloaded only where expressly permitted. This is a license agreement and not an agreement for sale or assignment of any rights in the Content; we do not transfer title to any portion of the Website or Content to you. You agree to abide by all additional restrictions displayed on the Website as they may be updated from time to time. The TPN may revoke this limited license at any time for any or no reason. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by the TPN and its licensors. You will not, and will not allow any third-party to: (i) damage, disable, overburden, impair or otherwise interfere with the proper working of, the Website; (ii) surreptitiously intercept any system, data or personal information from the Website; or (iii) bypass, defeat, tamper with or circumvent any of the functions or protections of the Website or any Content. The TPN reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to limit or terminate your access to or use of the Website, in whole or in part, at any time without notice. Termination of your access or use will not waive or affect any other right or relief to which the TPN may be entitled at law or in equity.

TPN+; Membership Agreement
Among the Content available on the Website is TPN+, a proprietary software application which allows businesses in the motion picture industry supply chain to manage and communicate their security status, as well as perform and receive security assessments. While full access to TPN+ is only available to those companies and individuals who have entered into a signed, written agreement with TPN, outlining the terms on which TPN agrees to provide products and services to the recipient (e.g., a Membership Agreement or Program Participation Agreement) (each, a “Membership Agreement”), certain limited parts and functionalities of TPN+ (e.g., pages related to sign-up and billing information; ability to provide, but not publish, questionnaire responses) may be accessible to you without such an agreement. For avoidance of doubt, if you use or access any portion of TPN+ while there is not an effective Membership Agreement in place that governs that use or access, it shall be governed by these Terms of Use. However, if you access TPN+ pursuant to a Membership Agreement between you and TPN, or between your employer or principal and TPN, such Membership Agreement shall govern your access to TPN+, and these Terms of Use shall be superseded in regards to such access.

Prohibited Activities
You may not use any “deep link,” “page-scrape,” “robot,” “spider” or other automatic device, program, algorithm or methodology, or any similar or equivalent manual process, to access, acquire, copy, or monitor any portion of the Website or any Content, or in any way reproduce or circumvent the navigational structure or presentation of the Website or any Content, to obtain or attempt to obtain any materials, documents or information (including, but not limited to, personal information or electronic addresses) through any means not purposely made available through the Website. You may not alter transmission data or attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion or feature of the Website, any other systems or networks connected to the Website or to an TPN server, or to any of the services offered on or through the Website, by hacking, password “mining,” or other illegitimate means.
Links

The Website may contain links to other websites, some of which may be operated by the TPN and others of which may be operated or controlled by third parties (“Third-Party Sites”), including links contained in advertisements, such as banner advertisements and sponsored links. These links are provided as a convenience to you and as an additional avenue of access to the information contained therein. The inclusion of links to Third-Party Sites is not, and should not be viewed, as an endorsement by the TPN of the Third-Party Sites or any content therein. Different terms and conditions apply to your use of Third-Party Sites. THE TPN HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE CONTENT OF THIRD PARTY SITES, AND ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEM AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY RELATED TO THEM.
