("Lightspeed Systems") and you (either an individual or a single entity) as a user, for the use of the Lightspeed Guide software product, which includes computer software and may include associated media, printed materials, and "online" or electronic documentation (the "Product") and the access to the Lightspeed Systems content filtering and reporting service (the "Service"). YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT BY INSTALLING, COPYING, OR OTHERWISE USING THE LIGHTSPEED GUIDE AND ACCESSING THE SERVICE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THE PRODUCT OR ACCESS THE SERVICE.

If you obtained the Product from any source other than Lightspeed Systems or an authorized distributor or reseller, you may not install or use the Product or access the Service.

3. Service and Restrictions. For the sole purpose of using the Product, you are granted a limited non-exclusive, non- transferable and royalty-free license to access the Service. You may not: 1) take any action which imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure and therefore may not register more than four (4) child accounts; 2) disclose or share your password with any third parties or use your password for any unauthorized purpose; 3) use any device, software or routine to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the Service or any transaction conducted on our site.

4. Registration and Privacy. You must register the Product with Lightspeed Systems as a condition to your rights to use the Product and access the Service. You will be asked to submit your personal information to Lightspeed Systems. The types of personal information collected by Lightspeed Systems may include, if applicable: name, address, email address, organization name, title, organization address, organization telephone and facsimile number, organization website URL, operating system type, and browser type. Lightspeed Systems will primarily use your personal information to provide you access to the Service and Product functionality (such as using your email address to send you passwords required to access and use the Product).

In order to function, the Product sends information from your computer to Lightspeed Systems’ reporting service. When communicating with the Product, the Lightspeed Systems reporting service receives from your computer (i) information identifying your account, (ii) information that relates your account to your authorized computer and (iii) the URLs, dates, and times of day that web sites were accessed or attempted to access. If you choose to use the Product’s mobile and social networking tools, those settings, comments, favorites, and tags will also be communicated to the Service for your mobile access. Without limiting your agreement to the other terms hereof, by entering into this Agreement, you expressly agree that Lightspeed Systems may collect, retain and use the information specified above in the manner specified above.
