Terms of Use
Terms of Use
This Agreement (the “Agreement” or “Terms of Use”) describes the practices of Continental Realty Corporation, its affiliates and agents (“CRC,” “we,” or “us”), in connection with CRC websites, including www.crcrealty.com, individual apartment pages, and individual commercial property pages (collectively, the “Sites”). Please read this Agreement carefully before accessing or using the Site. By accessing the Sites, you agree to be bound by this Agreement, which we may modify from time to time. CRC provides the information and services on the Sites to you, but only on the condition that you accept without modification of terms, conditions and notices contained in these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy, or elsewhere on the Sites, all of which are incorporated into and made part of these Terms of Use. Your use of the Sites constitutes your agreement to all such terms, conditions and notices. The information and services offered on or through the Sites are provided with the understanding that neither CRC nor its users are engaged in rendering legal or other professional services or advice. CRC may make improvements and/or changes in the Sites at any time without notice.
Proprietary Rights
All materials on the Sites are protected by copyrights, trademarks, service marks, patents, trade secrets, or other proprietary rights and U.S. and international laws, and owned or licensed by CRC. You may print or download one copy of written materials from the Sites for your personal noncommercial use only. No other use, reproduction, modification, display, distribution, sale, license, or transmission of or creation of derivative works based on any of the materials at the Sites is permitted without our express written permission.
User Contributed Material
You may not upload, post, transmit, or distribute any material to or through our Sites that (a) is threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, libelous, deceptive, fraudulent, invasive of another’s privacy, tortious, obscene, or otherwise objectionable; (b) infringes on any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, right of publicity, or other intellectual property or proprietary right of any party; (c) constitutes unauthorized or unsolicited advertising, excessive messaging or transmission threatening server capacity, junk or bulk e-mail, a chain letter, any other form of unauthorized solicitation, or any form of lottery or gambling; (d) constitutes or encourages conduct that could constitute a criminal offense, cause civil liability, or otherwise violate any local, state, national, or international law or regulation; (e) contains a virus or any other code or program designed or intended to disrupt, damage, or limit the functioning of any software, hardware, or telecommunications equipment or to damage or obtain unauthorized access to any data or other information of ours or any third party; or (f) that impersonates any person or entity or misrepresents any affiliation with any person or entity.
By submitting any material to the Sites, such as a literary contribution, classified ad, or any other material, you grant us the royalty-free, perpetual, and irrevocable right and license to use, reproduce, display, perform, adapt, modify, and distribute that material worldwide in any form, media, or method now known or hereafter devised, for any purpose. You also understand and acknowledge that such submissions are accessible to all visitors to the Sites.
Although we do not monitor or edit the material posted by users that may be available on the Sites, we reserve the right to remove any material that we determine does not comply with the Terms or that we consider to be harmful, objectionable, or inaccurate; however, we are not responsible for any failure or delay to remove such material.
No Unlawful or Prohibited Use
As a condition of your use of the Sites, you warrant to CRC that you will not use the Sites for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by the terms of the Agreement. If you violate any of these terms, your permission to use the Sites automatically terminates, but the provisions of this Agreement concerning proprietary rights, warranty and liability disclaimer, indemnification, choice of law and form, time to bring actions, international use, severability and integration survive.
Links and Linking
The Sites may contain hyperlinks to websites operated by parties other than CRC. Therefore, clicking on a button or other form of link in the Sites may bring you to a site owned and operated by a party other than CRC. Such hyperlinks are provided for your reference only. CRC does not own or control such websites, and is not responsible for their contents. Inclusion of hyperlinks by CRC to such websites does not imply an endorsement of the material on such websites or any association with their operators, and you access and use such sites, including information, material, products and services therein, solely at your own risk. Furthermore, because the CRC privacy policy is applicable only when you are on our Sites, once linked to another website, you should read that site’s privacy policy, particularly with respect to the Personal Information of children under the age of 13, before disclosing any Personal Information.
We reserve the right to require consent from our webmaster to allow a hypertext link to the Sites from any other website. We reserve the right to revoke our consent to any link at any time in our sole discretion.
Communications
By registering your mobile device or providing us with your mobile phone number, you agree to receive such SMS-based communications to the mobile number associated with your registered mobile device. To opt-out of receiving these SMS-based communications, follow the instructions in the body of the SMS message. In the event you elect to opt-out of such SMS-based communications, you may receive an additional message from the Service confirming your election. CRC does not warrant that the text messaging service will be uninterrupted or error free. By providing us with your email address, you agree to receive emails from time to time concerning products and services we offer. You have the right to opt out of further such communications at any time using the instructions provided in the email.
Warranty & Liability Disclaimer
You use the Sites at your own risk. CRC assumes no responsibility for any consequence relating directly or indirectly to any action you take or inaction on your part based on the information, services or other material on the Sites or which you may access through the Sites. THE SITES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NONINFRINGEMENT. WHILE CRC STRIVES TO KEEP THE INFORMATION ON THE SITES ACCURATE, COMPLETE AND UP- TO-DATE, CRC CANNOT GUARANTEE SUCH INFORMATION. THE INFORMATION, SOFTWARE, PRODUCTS, AND SERVICES PUBLISHED ON THE SITES MAY INCLUDE INACCURACIES OR TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS. CRC WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE OR LOSS RELATED TO, THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS OR TIMELINESS OF THE INFORMATION. IN NO EVENT SHALL CRC BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE USE OF THE SITES OR WITH THE DELAY OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITES, OR FOR ANY INFORMATION, PRODUCTS, OR SERVICES OBTAINED THROUGH THE SITES, OR OTHERWISE ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF THE SITES, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE. BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT PERMIT THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THESE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND OUR LIABILITY IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless CRC from any liability, loss, claim and expense (including attorneys’ reasonable fees, whether incurred in an action between us and you, or in any third party action) related to your use or misuse of the Sites, or violation of this Agreement.
Choice Of Law And Forum; Time To Bring Actions
This Agreement and your use of the Sites is governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Maryland, excluding its conflict of laws principles. You submit to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in State of Maryland with respect to any legal proceedings that may arise in connection with the Sites or from a dispute as to the interpretation or breach of this Agreement. Any cause of action arising out of or relating to the Sites and this Agreement must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action arose; otherwise such cause of action is permanently barred.
International Use
We do not represent that the Sites are appropriate or available for access from or use in countries outside the U.S. If you choose to access or use the Sites from outside the U.S., you are responsible for compliance with foreign and local laws.
Severability; Integration
This Agreement, along with our Privacy Policy and Accessibility Policy, constitutes the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the Sites and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether oral, written, or electronic, between you and us with respect to the Sites. If any part of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intent of the parties reflected in this Agreement, and the remaining portions shall continue in full force and effect.
Termination
We may terminate this Agreement and your right to use the Sites with or without cause at any time, effective immediately. You may terminate your use of the Sites at any time by ceasing to use the Sites and destroying all copies of any materials obtained from the Sites then in your possession or under your control.
Equal Housing Opportunity
We are pledged to the letter and spirit of United States policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity throughout the nation. We encourage and support an affirmative advertising and marketing program in which there are no barriers to obtaining housing because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin.
Material on this server may be subject to the United States Federal Fair Housing Act of 1968, as amended, which makes it illegal to advertise “any preference, limitation or discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, family status or national origin or an intention to make any such preference, limitation, or discrimination.”
The laws and regulations of other jurisdictions may add prohibitions against discrimination based on age, parental status, sexual orientation, political ideology, financial status, and the like. Therefore, please contact your local government for additional information.
All dwellings within the United States advertised by CRC are available on an equal opportunity basis.
