You agree that under no circumstances will FOF, its affiliates, or any thought leaders identified on the website (including, without limitation, the FOF home page, any forums, bulletin boards, communities or other locations available on the site) be responsible for (1) any information contained on or omitted from the website(s), (2) any person's reliance on any such information, whether or not the information is correct, current or complete, (3) the consequences of any action you or any other person takes or fails to take, whether or not based on information provided by or as a result of the use of the sites, (4) any person's satisfaction with any professional, whether relating to that professional’s competence, diligence, or otherwise, (5) the results of any advice given by or representation from any professional, or (6) the delay, failure or refusal of any professional to respond or consult to you.

You agree that you understand that the professionals who participate in the Website by providing any advice in response to a question submitted by another user ("Professional Participants") are not affiliated with, employed by or agents of FOF. Although Professional Participants may provide basic information about themselves to FOF (for example, information about the jurisdictions in which they are licensed and information about areas in which they practice and consider themselves competent and knowledgeable), and although such Professional Participants may provide or upload Content (“Professional Participant Content”) to the Website, and although FOF does rely upon and pass on this information to participants for their use, FOF does not separately verify this information and makes no representations as to the qualifications of any Professional Participants.

No such Professional Participant Content contained on the Website or provided through the Website, constitutes an endorsement by FOF or any of our affiliates of any particular professional or a guarantee of any personal and professional qualities or characteristics of a professional or any advice or opinion such Professional Participant may render.

However, if a professional-to-client relationship does arise through any Website, the scope and duration of any professional-to-client relationship or representation between the Professional Participant and client arising through an exchange of communication via the Website is limited by the subject matter and nature of the exchange. The scope of this limited professional-to-client relationship or representation extends only to the substance of the submitted question. The Professional Participant is under no duty to further investigate, follow-up, review, pursue, take further action, or to continue to represent the client. The duration of such professional-to-client relationship or representation is presumed to end as soon as the responding Professional Participant provides the last answer or follow-up communication in the exchange. You acknowledge and understand that in limited circumstances, FOF may be required or permitted by law to disclose such communications. Furthermore, FOF shall have the perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive world-wide right to use, reproduce, modify, edit, translate, publish, perform, display, post, transmit and distribute your questions, comments, and/or the corresponding answers without compensation to you, anonymously or in the aggregate, for internal or external purposes, alone or as part of other works in any form, media, or technology, whether now known or hereafter developed and to sublicense such rights.
