Survivability – Even if this agreement is terminated, the following sections will continue to apply: Proprietary rights owned by us, proprietary rights owned by you, compliance with laws, limitation of liability, no warranties, indemnity, choice of law, severability, and entire agreement.
Severability – If it turns out that a section of these terms of use isn’t enforceable, then that section will be removed or edited as little as required, and the rest of the agreement will still be valid.
Interpretation – The headers and sidebar text are provided only to make these terms of use easier to read and understand. The fact that we wrote these terms won’t affect the way the agreement is interpreted.
Amendments and Waiver – Amendments or changes to the agreement won’t be effective until we post revised terms of use on the website. If we don’t immediately take action on a violation of these terms, we’re not giving up any rights under the terms of use, and we may still take action at some point.
No changes at request of Golfer, Course, Partner, Sponsor, Charity/Non-profit – We can’t change these terms of use for any one golfer, course, partner, sponsor, nonprofit or group.
Further Actions – You’ll provide all documents and take any actions necessary to meet your obligations under these terms of use.
Notification of Security Breach – In the event of a security breach that may affect you or anyone connected to a video or donation, we’ll notify you of the breach once we have determined, in our discretion, that it occurred and will provide a description of what happened. If we determine, and notify you, that you need to forward all or part of that information to anyone, you’ll promptly do so.
Notices – Any notice to you will be effective when we send it to the last email or physical address you gave us or when posted on our website. Any notice to us will be effective when received by mail.
