DESCRIPTION

GME provides users with access to a collection of resources, including, various communications tools, forums, shopping, and other content and programming (the "Service"). You also understand and agree that the Service may include advertisements and that these advertisements are necessary for GME to provide the Service. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that enhance the current Service, shall be subject to the TOS. You understand and agree that the Service is provided "AS-IS" and that GME assumes no responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store any user communications or settings.

If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or GME has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, GME has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service (or any portion thereof). GME is concerned about the safety and privacy of all its members, particularly minors. Please remember that the Service is designed to appeal to a broad audience.

You understand that by using the Service, you may be exposed to Content that is offensive, indecent or objectionable.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The TOS constitute the entire agreement between you and GME and govern your use of the Service, superceding any prior agreements between you and GME.
