1. Your Acceptance
By using and/or visiting this website (collectively, including all Content
available through the www.tmaxgear.com URL, the "TMAX Gear Website", or
"Website"), You signify your agreement to both these Terms and Conditions of
Use (the "Terms of Use") and the Terms and Conditions of TMAX Gear's Privacy
Notice, which are published at http://www.tmaxgear.com/privacy, and which are
incorporated herein by reference. By browsing, accessing or using any portion
of this Website, you accept these terms without limitation or qualification, as
well as such additional or amended terms and conditions as TMAX Gear may from
time to time publish. If you do not agree to any of these terms, then please do
not access or use the TMAX Gear Website.
2. TMAX Gear Website
These Terms of Use apply to all users of the TMAX Gear Website, including users
who also may be contributors of text, content, information, and other materials
or services on the Website. The TMAX Gear Website may contain links to third
party websites that are not owned or controlled by TMAX Gear. TMAX Gear has no
control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies,
or practices of any third party websites. In addition, TMAX Gear will not and
cannot censor or edit the content of any third-party site. By using the
Website, you expressly waive TMAX Gear from any and all liability arising from
your use of any third-party website. Accordingly, we encourage you to be aware
when you leave the TMAX Gear Website and to read the terms and conditions and
privacy policy of each other website that you visit.
3. Website Access
A. TMAX Gear hereby grants you permission to use the Website as set forth in
this Terms of Use, provided that: (i) your use of the Website as permitted is
solely for your personal, noncommercial use; (ii) you will not copy or
distribute any part of the Website in any medium without TMAX Gear's prior
written authorization; (iii) you will not alter or modify any part of the
Website other than as may be reasonably necessary to use the Website for its
intended purpose; and (iv) you will otherwise comply with the terms and
conditions of these Terms of Use.

solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account, and you must
keep your account password secure. You must notify TMAX Gear immediately of any
breach of security or unauthorized use of your account. Although TMAX Gear will
not be liable for your losses caused by any unauthorized use of your account,
you may be liable for the losses of TMAX Gear or others due to such
unauthorized use.
C. You agree not to use or launch any automated system, including without
limitation, "robots," "spiders," "offline readers," etc., that accesses the
Website in a manner that sends more request messages to the TMAX Gear servers
in a given period of time than a human can reasonably produce in the same
period by using a conventional on-line web browser. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, TMAX Gear grants the operators of public search engines permission
to use spiders to copy materials from the site for the sole purpose of creating
publicly available searchable indices of the materials, but not caches or
archives of such materials. TMAX Gear reserves the right to revoke these
exceptions either generally or in specific cases. You agree not to collect or
