Online Commerce
Certain sections of this site may allow you to purchase products and or services that are provided by FOX and/or third parties. We are not responsible for the quality, accuracy, timeliness, reliability or any other aspect of third-party products or services. If you make a purchase from a third party on our site, or on a third-party website that you have accessed via a link on our site, the information obtained during your visit to that provider partner’s online store or site, and the information that you provide in connection with the transaction may be collected by both the provider partner and us. A provider partner may have privacy and data collection practices that are different from ours. We are not responsible for the privacy and data collection practices of these provider partners. When you purchase products or services on or through the site, you may be subject to additional terms and conditions that specifically apply to your purchase or use of such products or services. For more information regarding a provider partner, its online store, its privacy policies, and/or any additional terms and conditions that may apply, visit that provider partner’s website or contact the provider partner directly. You release us and our affiliates from any damages that you incur, and agree not to assert any claims against us or any of our affiliates, arising from your purchase or use of any products or services made available by third parties through the site.
The products available on our site are not available in physical form. Items purchased from our site are digital and will be made available for downloading or via streaming media after completing your purchase. Learning Events that are purchased are for registrations for a future live event. No purchase will result in a physical item being shipped to any physical address that you may provide.
You agree to be financially responsible for all purchases made by you or someone acting on your behalf through the site. You agree to only purchase goods or services for yourself or for another person for whom you are legally permitted to do so. When making a purchase for a third party that requires you to submit the third party’s personal information to us or a provider partner, you represent that you have obtained the express consent of such third party to provide such third party’s personal information. All sales are final, and FOX does not offer any money-back guarantees. You recognize and agree that you shall not be entitled to a refund for any purchase under any circumstances.
You agree that FOX, in its sole discretion, may terminate your use of any or all of the services or your participation in any program, for any reason or no reason, and that FOX shall not have any liability to you for any such action; provided, however, that if FOX terminates your participation in a program other than for cause (including, without limitation, your failure to comply with any term of the Agreement, Privacy Policy, or Code of Conduct), you will receive a pro-rata refund of any fees you paid in connection with the program.
You agree to indemnify and hold FOX (as defined for this purpose in the Online Commerce Section above) from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, relating to or arising out of (a) your use or attempted use of any of the programs or other services in violation of the Agreements; (b) your violation of any law or rights of any third party; or (c) information or content that you post or otherwise make available through any program or otherwise via any of the services, including without limitation any claim of infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property or other proprietary rights.
Talent Bank
Some parts of the site allow users to post content or data such as job ads, resumes, reviews, information, text, messages, and other materials. This functionality helps users find information about potential jobs, employers, and candidates. Any data that a user or other party submits, posts, publishes, displays, or makes available on or through the site, or otherwise provides to FOX, is called “User Content.” User Content includes job ads, resumes, articles/content and messages sent through FOX.
FOX is not responsible for User Content, which may be inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, or deceptive. FOX does not know whether User Content is true. Any opinion, fact, advice, information, or statement in User Content is the sole responsibility of its original author, who may use anonymous identifiers. You acknowledge that FOX has no obligation or liability with regard to publishing, monitoring, or removing User Content. FOX also has no obligation or liability regarding the accuracy of User Content.
If you provide User Content, it must comply with the Terms of Use. Your User Content must not be unlawful, fraudulent, discriminatory, threatening, abusive, libelous, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable, irrelevant, or unconstructive. Your User Content must not contain sexual, ethnic, or racial or other discriminating slurs. Your User Content must not contain proprietary information, trade secrets, intellectual property of another person, or confidential information. Your User Content must not contain spam, advertisements, solicitations, or any other commercial communication besides job ads and resumes under the Terms of Use. Your User Content must not be harmful to anyone.
You may not post official identification information, such as a social security number, passport number, national identification number, insurance number, driver’s license number, immigration number, or any other similar number, code, or identifier. Posting such identification information on the internet may lead to identity theft for which FOX cannot be held responsible.
You agree that FOX makes no representations, warranties, promises or guarantees regarding any content provided or generated by third parties, including, without limitation, the content of messages, articles/content, job advertisements and resumés. You further agree that FOX acts as a passive conduit for the distribution, provision, and publication of User Content, and has no obligation to screen or verify the accuracy, legality, legitimacy, truthfulness, or completeness of User Content, and accordingly, you accept that FOX is not responsible and has no liability for User Content. You understand that you may be exposed to User Content that is inaccurate, incomplete, illegal, misleading, false, offensive, constitutes spam, or is otherwise unsuited to your purpose, and you accept that it is your responsibility to verify the quality, accuracy, truthfulness, legality or reliability of User Content, including, without limitation, resumes/CVs and job advertisements, articles/content and content of messages. Your reliance on any User Content is at your own risk.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, although FOX has no obligation to screen User Content, to the extent that FOX becomes or is made aware of User Content that may or does (i) violate the terms of this Agreement or any other Agreement you have with FOX, or (ii) violate any law or regulation, or (iii) violate the rights of third parties, or (iv) create liability for FOX or otherwise negatively impact FOX, FOX reserves the right to reject and/or remove such User Content, and suspend and/or terminate any User account associated with such User Content.
User Content is the sole responsibility of the person or entity that provided the User Content. You shall be solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of posting, providing or publishing it.
Please note Section 230 of the U.S. Communications Decency Act ("CDA") (and the equivalent or similar laws in your jurisdiction) is intended to exclude or limit the liability of online service providers such as FOX, when such online service providers provide or make available access to third-party user generated content (see § 230 (c)(1) which states: No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider).
The decision by FOX to remove or not post or distribute any User Content, does not by itself amount to participation in the creation of such User Content and, accordingly, does not constitute a waiver of the immunity afforded by the CDA. Additionally, § 230 (c)(2) of the CDA specifically provides: "No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be held liable on account of (A) any action voluntarily taken in good faith to restrict access to or availability of material that the provider or user considers to be obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable whether or not such material is constitutionally protected…"
You understand and agree that FOX does not, and cannot, confirm that each User is who he/she/they claim to be. We are not responsible for authenticating Users and therefore it is your responsibility to conduct the appropriate due diligence before communicating or interacting with other Users, including, without limitation, job seekers, and employers. You assume all risks associated with Users with whom you come into contact. If you have any disputes or issues with any User you agree to pursue any remedies directly with the applicable User and you release FOX, its subsidiaries, and their respective employees, directors and agents from all claims, demands and damages of every kind (actual and consequential and direct and indirect) known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
You grant to FOX a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable and transferable license to use, copy, modify, distribute and publish your postings. You represent and warrant that you own or have all necessary rights (including intellectual property rights) to your postings (including to grant the license above).
FOX EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE ACCURACY OF ANY USER CONTENT PROVIDED, OR AS TO THE FITNESS OF THE INFORMATION FOR ANY PURPOSE.
