YOU SIGNIFY YOUR ASSENT TO BOTH THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS (the "Terms of Service")
AND THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF TRAVELTUBE'S PRIVACY NOTICE, WHICH ARE PUBLISHED

- TravelTube Website
These Terms of Service apply to all users of the TravelTube Website, including users
who are also contributors of video content, information, and other materials or
services on the Website. The TravelTube Website may contain links to third party
websites that are not owned or controlled by TravelTube. TravelTube has no control

of any third party websites. In addition, TravelTube will not and cannot censor

relieve TravelTube from any and all liability arising from your use of any third-party
website. Accordingly, we encourage you to be aware when you leave the TravelTube
Website and to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of each other website
that you visit.

A. TravelTube hereby grants you permission to use the Website as set forth in this
Terms of Service, provided that: (i) your use of the Website as permitted is solely
for your personal, noncommercial use; (ii) you will not copy or distribute any part
of the Website in any medium without TravelTube's prior written authorization; (iii)

C. You agree not to use or launch any automated system, including without limitation,
"robots," "spiders," "offline readers," etc., that accesses the Website in a manner

license granted by you terminates once you remove or delete a User Submission from
the TravelTube Website.
C. In connection with User Submissions, you further agree that you will not: (i)

and infringement of intellectual property rights on its Website, and TravelTube
will remove all Content and User Submissions if properly notified that such Content
or User Submission infringes on another's intellectual property rights. TravelTube
reserves the right to remove Content and User Submissions without prior notice.
TravelTube will also terminate a User's access to its Website, if they are determined
to be a repeat infringer. A repeat infringer is a User who has been notified of
infringing activity more than twice and/or has had a User Submission removed from
the Website more than twice. TravelTube also reserves the right to decide whether
Content or a User Submission is appropriate and complies with these Terms of Service
for violations other than copyright infringement and violations of intellectual
property law, such as, but not limited to, pornography, obscene or defamatory material,
or excessive length. TravelTube may remove such User Submissions and/or terminate
a User's access for uploading such material in violation of these Terms of Service
at any time, without prior notice and at its sole discretion.
D. In particular, if you are a copyright owner or an agent thereof and believe that
any User Submission or other content infringes upon your copyrights, you may submit
a notification pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") by providing
our Copyright Agent with the following information in writing (see 17 U.S.C 512(c)(3)
for further detail):
(i) A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of
the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;

if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification,
a representative list of such works at that site;
((iii) Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be
the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which

you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail;
