Section 12: Documents, Downloads and All Resources
You have very limited rights to the documents, downloads and resources on this website. You cannot give them away or provide them to others without an explicit license to do so from us. Refer them to this website instead. Unless explicitly stated otherwise you should assume that you do NOT have rights to use the stuff on this website in your business.
If your membership includes rights to use documents, forms and downloads on this website, you retain those rights of use while your membership is active only. If you decide to discontinue your membership, you will not be able to continue to use the documents, forms and downloads.
Section 13: Calculator and Simulation Software
If you use calculators, simulation software like the Real Estate Financial Planner™ software or derivatives like Real Estate Financial Planner Blueprints™ (hereafter referred to as “calculator”) on this website, you agree to use it at your own risk. By using it, you agree to hold us harmless.
It is likely that the calculator has programming errors which can give you unexpected or even wrong results. You should check all your results manually yourself, get the advice of professionals like, but not limited to, your attorney, CPA, financial planner, financial adviser, financial advisor, insurance agent and real estate agent before making investment decisions based on any output from the calculator.
The calculator is still considered to be in the alpha phase (and is expected to remain in alpha for the foreseeable future). That means we are adding, modifying and sometimes deleting features. That means that sometimes something that worked once, may no longer work when a new feature is introduced and causes problems with the older feature. We may need to redesign parts of all of the database and therefore the data you enter may be lost. Expect changes in how things work, what is offered and how, etc.
You should use the calculator for entertainment purposes only until it has undergone thorough testing and debugging and officially released and even then errors are still likely to exist and you understand that and agree to hold us harmless.
Section 14: Possible Sale
It is likely that, at some point, the Company and/or Website will be acquired or purchased by another larger business. By using Our Website and Online Resources you acknowledge this and understand that should an acquisition happen the terms and conditions of use, policies and access are likely, if not guaranteed, to change. Rights you might have enjoyed prior to the sale or acquisition may be terminated by the new owner with no compensation to you and you agree to this in advance.
