We will also post the changes on the web page at this address: http://www.localhotsingles.com/terms-of-use.php.

(You also agree that, should you determine to discontinue the use of the email address that you provided to us at the time of registration, substituting another email address, you will update your registration information with us by changing it to reflect the newly intended email address and by deleting the former email address, before you cease monitoring messages in the former email account, insuring that our emails will always be sent to your active, current, monitored email address.)

We promise you the following, while you are a Member, subject to all of the terms of this Agreement that:
1. We will provide you with a Service that enables you to post photographs and personal profile information about you for the evaluation or enticement of our other Members, and which will enable other registered Members to contact you and you to contact them by instant message or email, and for all of our Members to search for one another, all by means of our servers and proprietary software. In this Agreement, "Service" and "Services" are used interchangeably to mean these same things or any of them.
2. LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM is intended and operated only for purposes of entertainment and fun and for no other purpose or purposes. We have created and operate what we think to be the best platform in existence to encourage and facilitate the process of bringing people together online. We hope that you meet other people you like through our Services – and that they like you, too. If you'd like to flirt or get in touch with other Members, we hope that you get to do that, too. But we do not guarantee that you will ever meet, chat, converse, or flirt with, or exchange any information with any other person. We cannot guarantee and do not promise any specific results from use of the Services. We also do not guarantee any kind of interaction or relationship with persons you would meet through the services of LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM. We aim to entertain and amuse you – and in order to enhance your enjoyment of the time you spend with us, we will employ technical means to engage you in the simulation of flirting with and discovering other attractive people. If we do it well, you may never be able to tell that we are doing it or know when it happens. This is more fully explained in Section I. of this Agreement, Cautions About The Use Of This Service And Your Release Of Liability. We will aspire to operate LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM in a reasonable way under procedures that enhance your enjoyment and the benefit that you will receive from our Services, to protect your autonomy, expression, freedom of choice access, and security in ways that seem reasonable to us (in our sole discretion) and to endeavor to accomplish these things in the manners particularly described in this Agreement. We have the sole and exclusive right to run LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM and its Services as we see fit, to terminate or modify any or all of its Services, to terminate your Membership or that of anyone else, or even to terminate this site or any Service or any part of any Service at any time, for any reason or for no reason, with or without prior notice to you or anyone else, as we choose, in our sole discretion. Our choices will always balance competing interests and values, including our own, and our decisions may not satisfy everyone nor perfectly nor even approximately accomplish any particular goal mentioned in this Paragraph. We will run LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM by doing what we think is the right thing and you agree to accept our services exclusively on that basis.
3. We will answer your questions within a reasonable time about these "Terms of Service" and the way our Service operates. We may decline to answer questions about proprietary information or trade secrets in the operation of our site or for any other business reason.
4. We will design and implement reasonable measures calculated to assure your reasonable (but severely attenuated and diminished) expectation of privacy in the context of a Service which, by its very nature, attracts public attention to your appearance and profile, puts you in contact with strangers, and which depends on advertising and promotion with other, independent entities for commercial viability. You will be able to post your photographs, personal profile, and comments, and engage in instant chat with other persons in line with our Member Privacy, Security and Information Usage Policy, Section D. of this Agreement.
5. When we change this Agreement, we will send you an email advising you of the change and post the changes, as more fully explained in the controlling provisions above, in Section A. of this Agreement.

The following language conveniently summarizes many of your obligations to us. Some or most of the obligations described in this Part C. are more completely recited in other parts of this Agreement and the more complete recitation controls if there appears to be any conflict between them. Neither that a duty described elsewhere is omitted in this Part C. nor that a duty is alone described here affects its validity and force.

1. You know and agree that (with the exception of banner ads, FAQ's and instructions, and design elements), the postings contained on LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM and the Content they each display, were designed, written and posted, by persons, like yourself, having no collaborative relationship with us for the creation of any such Content. You agree and understand that we have absolutely no control over the nature of these postings or their Content because they are user-submitted and automatically posted and transmitted by technical rather than human means. You agree that LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM has no duty to monitor any posts or instant chat or otherwise to review the use or postings or communications of any Member, notwithstanding any power we may have to do any of those things. We reserve the right to investigate postings and conduct which may be in violation of this Agreement. You understand and agree that there is no partnership, agency, or employment relationship between us and you or any of the Members and that we do not regularly nor routinely review, examine, censor, or monitor any of these postings nor exert oversight of such a nature as would protect you from offense, harm, injury, embarrassment, humiliation or other risk, and that by your participation in the services provided by LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM, you bear some risk that, due to the conduct of other subscribers, you may be subjected the harm described here or to other harm. You are advised to use your own judgment to evaluate all advertisements, solicitations, and other communications posted on this site or promoting such a posting prior to taking any action or transmitting anything of value to any person in connection with them. You are advised not to share personal information about yourself, your name, your location or employment, your family, or your email address or telephone number with strangers. Please use caution, common sense, and safety when using our Services. You are solely responsible for your interactions with our other Members.
2. By using the Service to post your images and personal profile, you invite and encourage attention by others, and in fact you ask others to evaluate you. You understand that by doing so, you may attract negative comments and evaluations and that you may attract persons who react negatively to you and your appearance. These persons may contact you through any of the means of contact that are possible – inside or outside our Service. You understand that persons, including strangers, may contact you for unlawful purposes and with intent to harm you, to steal from you, to cheat you, to defraud you, or to make you sad in these ways and others. You also understand that because the activity of Members and others who use the Services are generally not monitored or intercepted by us, that postings, ratings, and contact from any of these persons cannot and will not be prevented by us. We cannot and will not protect you from predators. You can't count on any safety net except your own prudence and common sense. Please use that common sense, caution, and safety when using our Services. We remind you that you are solely responsible for your interactions with our other Members.
3. You may find other users' information or their communications to you to be offensive, harmful, inaccurate, or deceptive. Because we are not generally involved in member interactions, in the event that you have a dispute with one or more members or those persons who have posted, viewed, or used information on the LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM you unconditionally release us and our owners, operators, officers, directors, employees, agents, subsidiaries, successors, attorneys, contractors, and assigns, from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with the operation of LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM and any use or misuse of the Services we provide by any other person whatsoever. Without limitation of the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM is not responsible for or liable to you for any contact that you may receive as a result of your use of our Services, whether such contact is from cyberspace, by telephone, though e-mail, by snail mail, in person, or consisting of advertising, spamming, solicitation, harassment, stalking, abuse, or recruitment and any and all consequences ensuing from such contact, whether or not you have notified us of any threat, risk, or actual harm.
4. Without prejudice to or limitation of any of the foregoing or any other term or provision of this Agreement, you unconditionally release us and our owners, operators, officers, directors, employees, agents, subsidiaries, successors, attorneys, contractors, and assigns from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with the contents of any postings, ratings, evaluations, comments, and messages, the deletion or modification of any posting, any use or misuse of any Content which you may post or transmit, and access to your profile or its Content by any person whatsoever, whether or not you have notified us of any threat, risk, or actual harm.
5. IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE § 1542, WHICH SAYS: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR." THIS NOTICE IS GIVEN WITH RESPECT TO EACH RELEASE CONTAINED WITHIN THIS AGREEMENT, WHICH CONTAINS SEVERAL RELEASES.
6. In order to enhance your amusement experience, to stimulate you and others to use our Services more extensively, and to generally sprinkle some sparkle and excitement into the Services of LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM, we may post fictitious profiles, generate or respond to communications by means of automated programs or scripts that simulate or attempt to simulate your intercommunication with another real human being (though none really exists and any dialog is generated by programming), and we may employ or contract for the paid services of real persons who may interact with you as part of their compensated employment. While these communications may seem genuine, authentic, and personal, they may be broadcast simultaneously to a large number of persons and possess none of these qualities. While their contents may appear to be true, they may be quite false; while their contents may appear to sincere, they may be quite disingenuous. Sometimes, we may use these techniques or others like them for other business purposes, too, including, but not limited to those cases in which we monitor and/or investigate into operations, including but not limited to allegations that you or others have violated this Agreement.
7. Without prejudice to or limitation of any of the foregoing or any other term or provision of this Agreement, you hereby unconditionally release us and our owners, operators, officers, directors, employees, agents, subsidiaries, successors, attorneys, contractors, and assigns, and all other persons from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, incurred and alleged to be incurred, by any of them in connection with any

You waive any liability whatsoever that may arise out of or relates to the (absence or performance of) background checks performed by us or by any third parties.

We need not control public access to your postings, by age or otherwise.
2. We reserve the right to investigate into claims of misconduct or the violation of this Agreement and to delete postings or any part of them in the exercise of our sole discretion. You understand that the number, variety of such postings, and the Content of any of them will not remain fixed, but that over time, additions and eliminations of such postings will take place and that the Content found on any of the respective postings will change both by addition and elimination. You agree to promptly and diligently co-operate in good faith with all requests made by us to investigate any violation or allegations of violation of any of the terms contained in this Agreement and/or to verify your compliance with this Agreement; you agree to provide us with such documents, records and statements as we may reasonably request, including but not limited to your recorded or transcribed statements under oath, and to execute such consent forms as may be necessary or convenient for us to obtain documents, records, and statements not in your actual possession. You understand that we reserve the right to proceed against you for damages, injunction, or other relief should you violate the terms of this Agreement and we may, in our sole discretion, terminate your membership for such a violation and/or report your identity to any law enforcement agency, other agency of government, school, or any other person at all, without prejudice to our broader rights of disclosure under Part D. and/or any other part of this Agreement. You understand that, should we delete a post or any part of it, the deletion may result in the permanent destruction of the material deleted.

This provision is not meant to limit or restrict the absolute right of LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM under Sections B. 2. and L.3. of this Agreement (and elsewhere) to terminate this Agreement for any reason or no reason, at any time, with or without notice.
3. Membership in LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM may be terminated by you at any time, with or without any cause. You may terminate your account at this link. Your access to LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM, your account, and/or your username and password combination may also be terminated by LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM at any time, with or without cause and with or without prior notice and we may delete all of your data on our servers when we do so, with or without prior notice.
4. You may cancel your profile at any time. Cancellation will be effective within 48 hours, though you accept that any crawled content such as profile page information on search engines is completely outside of our control and will take a longer period to disappear.

5. You agree that LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM shall not be liable to you or any third party for any damages arising out of its termination or suspension of your access to the Service or modification of the Service or its termination of the Service or any part of it, including but not limited to the loss of your data.
1. You acknowledge, represent and warrant that you have read these terms and conditions and agree to be bound by them (as they may be modified in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) as part of and in consideration of your LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM membership.
2. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) had never been included.
3. The headings set out before the various paragraphs of this Agreement are set out for convenience only and it is agreed that they do not limit the meaning or extent of any language found in such paragraphs. You agree that this Agreement fully and completely integrates and incorporates and recites every agreement between you and LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM, subject to the provisions of this Agreement providing for change, and you agree that all prior discussions, agreements, or negotiations between the parties are either rescinded by mutual agreement or have been integrated into this Agreement, and that none any longer survives as a matter that is enforceable unless it has been expressly set forth in this Agreement.
Choice of Law, Arbitration, Exclusive Jurisdiction. You further acknowledge and agree, by applying for membership to LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM, that these terms and conditions shall be construed under and pursuant to the laws of (i) your country of main residence (at the moment the dispute arises), or (ii) in case there is any dispute or doubt regarding which country that is, under the laws of The United Kingdom. Except as may otherwise be specifically provided otherwise herein, any and all disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement and/or your relationship with LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM and/or your use of this site shall be exclusively submitted to binding arbitration according to the rules for arbitration of the Center for Dispute Resolution (www.cedires.com). Such arbitration will be preceded by a mediation attempt, which may occur using telephone conference or similar tools such as Skype etc. Place of arbitration will be (i) the capital city of your country of main residence (at the moment the dispute arises),. If all parties agree to that after the dispute has arisen (i) the arbitration may take place with the use of electronic means such as Skype etc.; in that case hearings can take place using those methods; (ii) the applicable law as mentioned above may be replaced, if all parties agree to that, by the rules of equity as understood by European continental lawyers, i.e. ex aequo et bono. Should an arbitration clause be invalid in your jurisdiction in consumer contracts, then the Courts of The United Kingdom will have exclusive jurisdiction and The United Kingdom law shall be applicable.
Arbitration or any dispute between the parties shall proceed solely on an individual basis without the right for any Claims to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on bases involving claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of others. The arbitrator's authority to resolve and make written awards is limited to Claims between you and us alone. Claims may not be joined or consolidated unless agreed to in writing by all parties. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that any Dispute arising out of this Agreement must be filed within one (1) year after the date in which the incident giving rise to the Dispute occurred. Absence of filing a claim within the time limit provided provokes a waiver of such claim and prohibits any claim based on any Dispute.
All disputes will be resolved as stated above, whether the services of LOCALHOTSINGLES.COM are accessed from within the United States or from outside the United States.
The parties waive and the Arbitrator shall not be empowered to grant indirect, consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages and/or damages or relief in excess of those permitted by this Agreement unless the statute under which they are suing provides otherwise.
