Provided Services
The Services include but are not limited to Seek 7 Search (located at www.seek7.com) (the "Search Services").
The Services may also be located on third party web sites and/or applications either as a link from an add-on service
to, or otherwise in connection with, Web sites and/or applications that such third parties control. Our Search
Services enable you to search the World Wide Web for anything that interests you. We may provide you with search
listings of advertisers of Seek 7 (as well as search listings provided to Seek 7 by a third party to supplement
the advertiser listings) that help you find what you are looking for.
Further Details and Considerations
The Services act as a system or venue to introduce you to buyers and sellers of goods and services and providers
of information. Seek 7 uses reasonable efforts to ensure the availability of the information and content, including
links, that it makes available through the Services. However, the Services are composed of content not offered
by Seek 7. Seek 7 does not control (i) the quality, safety or legality of items available through or on its advertisers'
Web sites or sites of third parties not in privity of contract with Seek 7, (ii) the truth or accuracy or legality
of the content from those advertisers or those third parties (even if such content appears on the Services), or
(iii) the availability or technical capabilities of their Web sites or links to those Web sites. Seek 7 is not
liable or responsible for content supplied or approved by third parties, or for actions you might take in
reliance on that content. Nothing contained in any of the Services is an offer or promise to sell a specific product
for a specific price or that any advertiser will sell any product or service for any purpose or price or on any
specific terms.
Seek 7 does not guarantee the price, terms, product, availability and/or services offered by any advertiser. For
all of the Services, Seek 7 is not involved in any transactions between you and any of its advertisers, and is
not responsible for, and does not guarantee the price or performance of any goods, services or information provided
by advertisers. If you have a dispute with one or more advertisers, you agree to release and hereby release Seek
7 (and Seek 7's officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, successors, assigns, content
providers and service providers) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and
nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected
with such disputes.
