Terms & Conditions

WELCOME TO THIS MISSISSIPPI MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION-OPERATED WEB SITE!

We've designed our Web sites to be useful, informative and fun. We hope we've succeeded -- and we hope you'll let us know how we can make them even better.

All we ask in return is that you abide by the Terms and Conditions that follow. Please read them carefully, because when you use our sites, you automatically agree to them .

THANKS FOR VISITING!

RESTRICTIONS ON YOUR USE OF THE MATERIALS IN OUR SITES

(1) You agree not to re-use material from www.mma-web.org or from any other World Wide Web site operated by Mississippi Manufacturers Association. In particular, you agree not to copy, distribute, republish, upload, post, or transmit anything unless you get our written consent -- first .

There's one exception: you may download material onto one computer for your personal, non-commercial use only, provided you don't delete or change any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices.

But please don't modify the materials or use them for any other purpose; if you do, you'll be violating our intellectual-property rights.

(2) Everything you download -- the software, plus all files, all images incorporated in or generated by the software, and all data accompanying it -- is considered licensed to you by Mississippi Manufacturers Association.

That means that we retain full and complete title to the software and to all of the associated intellectual-property rights. So you're not allowed to redistribute or sell the material -- or to reverse-engineer, disassemble, or otherwise convert it to any other form that people can use.

IF YOU SUBMIT MATERIAL TO US...

(1) All remarks, suggestions, ideas, graphics, or other information that you communicate to Mississippi Manufacturers Association through this site (other than information we promise to protect under our Privacy Policy), becomes and remains our property, even if this agreement is later terminated.

This means that...

You can't sue us for using the ideas you submit (including, but not limited to, product or advertising ideas).

If we use them -- or anything like them -- we don't have to pay you or anyone else for them.

We will have exclusive ownership of all present and future rights to submissions of every kind. We can use them for any purpose, without compensating you or anyone else for them.

(2) You acknowledge that you are responsible for any submission you make -- in other words, you acknowledge that you (and not we) have full responsibility for the message, including its legality, reliability, appropriateness, originality, and copyright.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

It's very important for you to read the next two sections carefully -- so important, in fact, that the law actually requires us to put this material in capital letters.

MISSISSIPPI MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OR INJURY THAT ACCOMPANY OR RESULT FROM YOUR USE OF ITS SITES.

THESE INCLUDE (BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO) DAMAGES OR INJURY CAUSED BY ANY...

USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE SITES,

FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE,
ERROR,
OMISSION,
INTERRUPTION,
DEFECT,
DELAY IN OPERATION OR TRANSMISSION,
COMPUTER VIRUS, OR...

KEEP IN MIND THAT WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, INCLUDING...

DAMAGES INTENDED TO COMPENSATE SOMEONE DIRECTLY FOR A LOSS OR INJURY;
DAMAGES REASONABLY EXPECTED TO RESULT FROM A LOSS OR INJURY (LEGALLY, "CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES");
OTHER MISCELLANEOUS DAMAGES AND EXPENSES RESULTING DIRECTLY FROM A LOSS OR INJURY (LEGALLY, "INCIDENTAL DAMAGES").

FURTHERMORE, WE ARE NOT LIABLE EVEN IF WE'VE BEEN NEGLIGENT OR IF OUR AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES -- OR BOTH.

DISCLAIMER

THE MATERIALS IN OUR SITES ARE PROVIDED AS IS. THIS MEANS THAT (SUBJECT TO THE EXCEPTION BELOW) MISSISSIPPI MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES ABOUT THE MATERIAL IN THE SITES.
