Because Client does not monitor Transmissions on a constant, real time basis, please report any objectionable postings to us at contact@galois.com.

Client is not responsible for the content, terms of use or privacy policy applicable to any websites other than this Site or to any other person’s ads that may appear on this Site. Client cannot and does not represent or warrant the validity, correctness, accuracy, reliability or truthfulness of those ads or the websites. Although Client may periodically attempt to verify the accuracy of the ads and other websites, neither Client nor any of its affiliates will be liable for any errors or inaccuracies in those ads and third party websites.

If your use of this Site or the Materials results in the need for service, repair or correction of equipment, software or data, you assume all cost related to that service, repair and correction.
