From time to time, we may change the Terms of Use. When we do so, we will use reasonable means to provide notice of the change. You agree that your continued use of the Service after notice of a change has been posted constitutes your acceptance of any changes to the Terms of Use. If you do not approve of the changes, you should cease your use of the Service. Therefore, we recommend you check this page and the Smart Content web site periodically for updates.
Irrespective of our right to modify the Terms of Use, we reserve the right to modify or discontinue the Service, temporarily or permanently, with or without notice. You agree that we shall not be liable to you for any modification to or discontinuance of the Service.
