1. OUR SERVICES

The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country.

The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) or Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA)), so if your interactions would be subject to such laws, you may not use the Services.
