Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in these Terms supersedes or limits your rights under (1) the terms and conditions of any written agreement you have entered into with CourseKey regarding the use of Services, or (2) applicable laws or regulations to the extent these Terms are prohibited by such laws or regulations. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the terms and conditions of an applicable written agreement you have entered into with CourseKey, the terms and conditions of the written agreement shall control.

1. Basic Terms and Accounts

You are responsible for your use of the Services. Your account with CourseKey (and use of the Services) 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 are accepting these Terms and using the Services on behalf of a company, organization, government, or other legal 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 these Terms, and that you agree to these Terms on the entity’s behalf. You may use the Services only in compliance with these Terms, any agreement entered into by your institution relating to the Services, and all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules and regulations.

In cases where you have authorized or registered another individual to use your account(s), you are fully responsible for (i) the online conduct of such user; (ii) controlling the user’s access to and use of the Services; and (iii) the consequences of any misuse.

You are responsible for Content that you post to the Services, and any consequences thereof. The Content you submit, post, or display may be viewed by other users of the Services. You may be able to control the Content that other users of certain Services may access through the privacy options in certain Services.

You retain your rights to any Content you submit, post, or display on or through the Services. By submitting, posting or displaying Content on or through the Services, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license (with the right to sublicense) to use, host, store, copy, reproduce, process, adapt, modify, publish, transmit, create derivative works, communicate, display, and/or distribute such Content in any and all media or distribution methods (now known or later developed) as part of providing any of the Services.

You represent and warrant that you have all the rights, power and authority necessary to grant the rights granted herein to any Content that you submit.

All Content, whether publicly posted or privately transmitted, is the sole responsibility of the person who originated such Content.

We reserve the right to remove Content alleged to be infringing without prior notice, at our sole discretion, and without liability to you.
