Description of service |
|
Focusdep currently provides users with
access to a rich collection of quotations through its network of
properties (the "Service"). You also understand and agree that the
Service may include advertisements and that these advertisements are
necessary for Focusdep to provide the Service. You also understand and
agree that the service may include certain communications from
Focusdep, such as service announcements, administrative messages and
the Focusdep subscription, and that these communications are
considered part of Focusdep membership; however, you will be able to
choose not to receive them. You also understand that as a Focusdep
member, once submitted quotations are made they become property of
Focusdep and members will not be able to delete any quotations. Unless
explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that augment or enhance
the current Service, including the release of new Focusdep.com
properties, shall be subject to the TOS. |

provisions of the TOS remain in full force and effect.
