The Write Way provides a Service for Users to send handwritten notes and cards.

  1. Eligibility

You may use the Service only if you can form a binding contract with The Write Way, and only [if you are] in compliance with this Agreement and all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules and regulations. Any use or access to the Service by anyone under 18 is strictly prohibited and in violation of this Agreement. The Service is not available to any Users previously removed from the Service by The Write Way.

  1. The Write Way Service

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, you are hereby granted a non-exclusive, limited, non-transferable, freely revocable license to use the Service for your personal, noncommercial use only and as permitted by the features of the Service. The Write Way reserves all rights not expressly granted herein in the Service and the The Write Way Content (as defined below). The Write Way may terminate this license at any time for any reason or no reason.

  1. The Write Way Accounts

To use the Services, you must register for a The Write Way account. Your The Write Way account gives you access to the services and functionality that we may establish and maintain from time to time and in our sole discretion. We may maintain different types of accounts for different types of Users. If you open a The Write Way account on behalf of a company, organization, or other entity, then (a) “you” includes you and that entity, and (b) you represent and warrant that you are an authorized representative of the entity with the authority to bind the entity to this Agreement, and that you agree to this Agreement on the entity’s behalf. By connecting to The Write Way with a third-party service, you give us permission to access and use your information from that service as permitted by that service, and to store your log-in credentials for that service. Accounts are registered solely to you personally and may not be sold, traded, gifted, or otherwise transferred at any time under any circumstances.

You may never use another User’s account without permission. When creating your account, you must provide accurate and complete information. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account, and you must keep your account password secure. We encourage you to use “strong” passwords (passwords that use a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols) with your account. You must notify The Write Way immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account. The Write Way will not be liable for any losses caused by any unauthorized use of your account.

You may control your User profile and how you interact with the Service by changing the settings in your “Account Settings” page. By providing The Write Way your email address you consent to our using the email address to send you administrative and service-related notices, including any notices required by law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. We may also use your email address to send you communication pursuant to our Privacy Policy.

You may cancel your account at any time by following the instructions on the Service. If you voluntarily cancel your account, or allow your account to lapse, you may reactivate that account at any time. We may permanently or temporarily terminate or suspend your account or any access to the Service without notice and liability for any reason, including if in our sole determination you violate any provision of this Agreement, or for no reason. Upon termination for any reason or no reason, you continue to be bound by this Agreement. If The Write Way has previously terminated your account for any reason, The Write Way further reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to prohibit you from reactivating such accounts or creating a new account on the Service.

Accessing the audio-visual content available on the Service for any purpose or in any manner other than Streaming (as defined below) is expressly prohibited. “Streaming” means a contemporaneous digital transmission of an audiovisual work via the Internet from the The Write Way Service to a User’s device in such a manner that the data is intended for real-time viewing and not intended to be copied, stored, permanently downloaded, or redistributed by the User.
