The Services are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of both Kenya and foreign countries. Except as expressly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement gives you a right to use the MavenCORE name or any of the MavenCORE trademarks, logos, domain names or other distinctive brand features. Subject to your acceptance of this Agreement, MavenCORE grants to you a worldwide, non-assignable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable limited license to use the Services and related platform and to display any non-confidential results of such Services anywhere on the rest of the web, provided that you:
- do not modify the content, except as described below; attribute MavenCORE with a human and machine-followable link (an anchor tag) linking back to the page displaying the original source of the Content on MavenCORE;
- make a reasonable effort to update a particular piece of Content to the latest version on MavenCORE; and make a reasonable attempt to delete Content that has been deleted on MavenCORE.
No Claim to Any Rights in Your Information. We are promising not to claim any ownership interest in the Content provided by you to us solely because you have provided it, although we will claim a license sufficient to display such items through MavenCORE.
Reservation of the Company’s Rights
Right to Control Content. MavenCORE may, but is not required to, monitor or control the Content posted via the Services. Our failure to exercise this right does not give you any right to make a claim against MavenCORE.

Right to Discontinue the Services. MavenCORE reserves the right to discontinue the Services or to change the Services in any way and at any time, with notice to you, without liability.

We may delete your account for any reason, and if we delete your account you will lose all access to any information, connections or other features that may have value to you that may have been associated with your account.
Right to Refuse or Cancel Registration. The Company has the right to refuse registration of or cancel your user account in its discretion for any reason or for no reason. In addition, the Company reserves the right at all times (but will not have an obligation) to remove or refuse to distribute any Content on the Services and to terminate users and/or reclaim usernames. We also reserve the right to access, read, preserve, and disclose any information as we reasonably believe is necessary to:
- satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request,
- enforce this Agreement (including investigation of potential violations hereof),
- detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues,
- respond to user support requests or
- protect the rights, property or safety of MavenCORE, its users and the public.
User Acknowledgement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you specifically acknowledge that the Company is exempt from liability to any person for any claim based upon its termination of an account or disabling of access to or removal of any Content, including material it believes, in its sole discretion to violate this Agreement, regardless of whether the material ultimately is determined to be infringing or otherwise prohibited, and regardless of whether such termination or disabling has the effect of reducing the value of any Content or opportunities that might otherwise have been available to you. By using the Services, you agree that notice to you through an email to the email address you provided in your profile constitutes reasonable efforts to notify you of any removal or disabling if such notice is required.
Comments, Feedback, Suggestions, Ideas, And Other Submissions. The Services may invite you to chat or participate in blogs, message boards, and other functionality and may provide you with the opportunity to create, submit, post, transmit, publish or distribute Content to the Company or to/via the Services. Any such material you transmit to the Company or otherwise through the Services will be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary. All comments, feedback, suggestions, ideas, forum posts and other submissions disclosed, submitted or offered to the Company in connection with the use of the Services or otherwise, and any chat, blog, message board, online forum, text, email or other communication with the Company, shall deemed to have been licensed to the Company on a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual basis.

Venue and Governing Law
This Agreement and all aspects of the Services shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Kenya (i.e., without regard to conflict of law’s provisions) regardless of your location.
Waiver and Severability
The failure of the Company to require or enforce strict performance by you of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the Company’s right to assert or rely upon any such provision or right in that or any other instance. In fact, the Company may choose to enforce certain portions of this Agreement more strictly or to interpret certain provisions more strictly against certain users than it does against users in general, and such disparate treatment shall not be grounds for failing to comply with all this Agreement as so interpreted.
You and the Company agree that if any portion of this Agreement is found illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part by any court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such determination of invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other manner or jurisdiction and without affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall continue to be in full force and effect.
