Welcome to In The Know Legal, or as we like to sometimes abbreviate it – ITKL. This is our Terms of Use for the website. You’ll find the “short and sweet” summary here to the right, but you should still read the whole thing – because we’re going to hold you to it even if you don’t!

7. The inevitable, dreaded “legalese.” We’ve worked hard to create this site and our products, and it is important to us that we protect it all. So this section states we aren’t making any warranties or promises about the website, or our products..
Legal Disclaimer.
Our Products and materials are not to be perceived or relied upon in any way as legal advice. The information provided with our Products is not intended to be a substitute for professional advice that can be provided by your own lawyer. We are not giving legal advice in any way. You are hereby advised to consult with your own lawyer for any and all questions and concerns You pertaining to your specific legal situation. You agree that We are not responsible for your earnings, the success or failure of your business decisions, the increase or decrease of your finances or income level, or any other result of any kind that You may have as a result of information presented to You through our Products and Materials. The use of this Website and/or the Products does not create an attorney-client relationship.
To be clear – we aren’t providing legal advice. So, you cannot and should not rely on anything here as legal advice. We may be attorneys – but we are not your attorneys.
Technology Disclaimer.
We try to ensure that the availability and delivery of our Products is uninterrupted and error-free, including our content and communications through methods like our Website, member forum, private Facebook groups, and e-mail communications, or any other materials provided by us to you. However, We cannot guarantee that your access will not be suspended or restricted from time to time, including to allow for repairs, maintenance or updates, although, of course, We will try to limit the frequency and duration of suspension or restriction. To the fullest extent permitted by law, We will be not be liable to You for damages or refunds, or for any other recourse, should our Products become unavailable or access to the them becomes slow or incomplete due to any reason, such as system back-up procedures, internet traffic volume, upgrades, overload of requests to the servers, general network failures or delays, or any other cause which may from time to time make our Products inaccessible to you.
We do our best to make sure the website is running like a well-oiled machine, but we all know technology can be a funny fickle thing, so bear with us if there’s a technical hiccup.
Links to Other Websites.
We may provide links and pointers to other websites maintained by third parties that may take You outside of our website. These links are provided for your convenience and the inclusion of any link to any other website does not imply our endorsement, sponsorship, or approval of that website or its owner. We do not endorse, and We are not responsible for, the views, opinions, facts, advice, or statements provided by external resources referenced in our Website or its Content, or their accuracy or reliability. We assume no responsibility for errors or omissions caused by other websites that may be included on our website. We have no control over the contents or functionality of those websites and so We accept no responsibility for any loss, damage, or otherwise that may arise from your use of them and therefore We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any other website or their content. It is your responsibility to review the terms and conditions and privacy policies of those linked websites to confirm that You understand and agree with those policies.
If we provide links to other websites, we are not responsible for what you find there and you follow those links at your own risk, because we have no control over what is on the other side.
Limitation of Liability.
To the fullest extent allowed by law, We will not be held responsible or liable to You in any way for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as a result of the following: DELAYING, REJECTING, OR REMOVING ANY OR ALL CONTENT AT ANY TIME FOR ANY OR NO REASON WHATSOEVER WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE TO YOU; MODIFYING OR DISCONTINUING TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY, THE WEBSITE (OR ANY PART THEREOF) WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE TO YOU FOR ANY OR NO REASON WHATSOEVER; IMMEDIATELY TERMINATING YOUR ACCESS TO THE WEBSITE FOR ANY OR NO REASON WHATSOEVER AND WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE TO YOU; THE ACCURACY, USEFULNESS, OR AVAILABILITY OF ANY INFORMATION POSTED TO OR THROUGH THE WEBSITE; OR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY SORT INCURRED BY YOU AS A RESULT OF INTERACTIONS YOU HAVE WITH THIRD-PARTIES FOUND ON OR THROUGH THE WEBSITE.
We don’t expect anything to go wrong, but if it does, we aren’t responsible for any losses, financial or otherwise, that you might suffer.
Release of Claims.
In no event will We be liable to any party for any type of direct, indirect, special, incidental, equitable or consequential damages for any use of or reliance on our website, or on those affiliated with us in any way, and You hereby release us from any and all claims; including, without limitation, those related to lost profits, personal or business interruptions, misapplication of information, or any other loss, condition or issue, or otherwise, even if We are expressly advised of the possibility of such damages or difficulties. YOU AGREE NOT TO FILE ANY LAWSUIT OR PROCEEDING INCONSISTENT WITH THE FOREGOING LIABILITY LIMITATIONS. IF ANY COURT DETERMINES THE LAW OF SUCH A JURISDICTION APPLIES, OUR LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
If You have a dispute with any party who provides advertising or third-party services on or through the Website, or with any party who provides a website linked to on the Website, You release us from any and all claims, demands, and damages (incidental, indirect, punitive, statutory, exemplary, expectation, special, or consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such dispute.
No one likes to go to court, so you are agreeing not to file a suit if you have a complaint or loss. You especially won’t file a claim against us based on an issue you may have with a party on the other side of those links we may provide to other sites – because that just doesn’t make sense!
