The Cisco CPTN Web Site (the "Site") was developed by or for Cisco. The Site brings together job seekers ("Candidates") with Cisco channel partners, vendors and other third parties ("Partners"). Collectively, Candidates and Partners are sometimes identified as "Users." The Site permits: (i) Candidates to upload resumes, search job listings and learn about Partners; (ii) Partners to post job listings and review resumes of Candidates; and (iii) all Users to use the Site's social networking features, such as chat, blogs and wikis (collectively, the "Services"). Cisco may modify, enhance, restrict or terminate the Services in its discretion at any time and without notice.

This Agreement sets forth legally binding terms for the Site and the Services. This Agreement covers all of your visits to the Site and your use of the Services. If you stop visiting the Site or stop using the Services, this Agreement remains in effect.

a.	Amendments/Other Terms. Cisco may elect to change or supplement the terms of this Agreement from time to time at its sole discretion. Cisco will exercise commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice of any material changes to the Agreement. Within five (5) days of posting changes to the Agreement, they will become effective. Users who do not agree with the changes should discontinue using the Site or Services. Users who visit the Site or use the Services after such five-day period will be deemed to have accepted the changes to the Agreement. In order to participate in certain Services, Users may be required to download software and/or agree to additional terms and conditions. Unless expressly set forth in such additional terms and conditions, those additional terms are hereby incorporated into this Agreement.
b.	Posting Content. Much of the information on the Site is not provided by Cisco. Choose carefully the information you post, whether in a resume, a job listing or elsewhere on the Site. Users are solely responsible for what they post. The following is a partial list of what Users are prohibited from posting: Anything unlawful, libelous, threatening, obscene, discriminatory or otherwise objectionable in Cisco's sole discretion; Content or images containing nudity, or materials that may be considered obscene, lewd, excessively violent, harassing, explicit or otherwise objectionable; Information prohibited from disclosure under any law or under contractual or fiduciary relationships (such as insider information, or proprietary and confidential information learned or disclosed as part of employment relationships or under nondisclosure agreements); Content that infringes the copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret or other intellectual property rights of anyone; Any information or data that misrepresents the identity, characteristics or qualifications of you or any other person, including but not limited to the use of a pseudonym, or misrepresenting current or previous positions, qualifications or affiliations with a person or entity, past or present; Any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional materials, "spam," "chain letters," "pyramid schemes" or any similar form of solicitation. This prohibition includes but is not limited to a) using invitations to send messages to people who don't know you or who are unlikely to recognize you as a known contact; b) using the Services to connect to people who don't know you and then sending unsolicited promotional messages to those direct connections without their permission; and c) sending messages to distribution lists, newsgroup aliases, or group aliases for purposes of spamming; Any virus, malware or other harmful code; Anything that may disrupt or interfere with the Services; Any other content that, in Cisco's sole discretion, undermines the purpose of the Site or otherwise reflects unfavorably upon the reputation of Cisco, its partners, affiliates or customers. You acknowledge and understand that though some Users may violate one or more of the above prohibitions, Cisco shall have no responsibility or liability. If you become aware of misuse of the Site or Services, please contact portalmisuse@external.cisco.com. Cisco may investigate any complaints and violations that come to our attention and may take any action that we believe is appropriate, including, but not limited to issuing warnings, removing the content or terminating accounts. However, because situations and interpretations vary, we also reserve the right not to take any action. Cisco is not liable for errors or omissions in any Site data or content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of, access to, or denial of access to any Site data or content.
c.	Monitoring. Nothing in this Agreement shall require Cisco to monitor or edit the Site. If at any time Cisco chooses, in its sole discretion, to monitor or edit the Site, Cisco nonetheless assumes no responsibility for anything submitted by Users, no obligation to modify or remove any inappropriate materials or information and no responsibility for the conduct of any User. Cisco does not endorse and has no control over what Users post or submit to the Site. Cisco reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to reject, refuse to post or remove any resume, job listing or other posting, or to restrict, suspend, or terminate any User's access to all or any part of the Site or Services at any time, for any or no reason, with or without prior notice, and without liability.
d.	Laws and Reporting. The Site and the Services may be used only for lawful purposes. Cisco reserves the right to investigate and take appropriate action against anyone who, in Cisco's sole discretion, is suspected of violating this provision, including without limitation, reporting you to law enforcement authorities. Use of the Site or the Services is void where prohibited.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Cisco regarding the use of the Services and the Site. The failure of Cisco to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. This Agreement operates to the fullest extent permissible by law. If any provision of this Agreement is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision is deemed severable from this Agreement and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. The parties are independent contractors under this Agreement and no other relationship is intended, including a partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency, employer/employee, fiduciary, master/servant relationship, or other special relationship.
