1. Right to change this site

We reserve the right, at any time in our sole discretion, to modify, suspend or discontinue the Sites or any service, content, feature, or product offered through the Sites, with or without notice and/or offer opportunities to some or all users of the Sites, for any reason. You agree that we shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Sites, or any service, content, feature or product offered through the Sites.

2. No unlawful or Prohibited Use

You may not use the Sites for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any provision of applicable federal, state, and local laws or this Agreement. You may not use any device, software or other instrumentality to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of our Sites, and you may not take any action that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure. In addition, you are prohibited from using any robot, spider, other automatic device, or manual process to monitor or copy our Sites or the Content contained herein, without the prior written consent from an authorized Seminole Gaming representative.

Transmission, distribution or storage of material or conduct in violation of any applicable local, state, provincial, federal or foreign law or regulation is prohibited. This includes, without limitation, any material that is obscene, defamatory or libelous, constitutes an illegal threat, violates rights of privacy or publicity, or infringes any third party’s intellectual property rights.

If we are notified of allegedly defamatory, damaging, illegal, or offensive content provided by a user, we may investigate the allegation and determine, at our sole discretion, whether to remove or request the removal of such content from the Sites. Seminole Gaming may disclose any content or electronic communication of any kind: (i) to satisfy any law, regulation, or government request; (ii) if such disclosure is necessary or appropriate to operate the Sites; or (iii) to protect the rights or property of Seminole Gaming, its users or third party service providers.

In the event of any unlawful or offensive use of Content of the Sites, we reserve the right to modify or remove any and all Content, functionality, and links contained on the Sites. If we determine, in our sole and absolute discretion, that you have violated any provision of this Agreement or any applicable law, we may, at any time, terminate, restrict, or modify all or part of your access, times of availability, and required equipment and software for use of the Sites, and take any action in response to such violation.

The Sites may provide you with the ability to use passwords, usernames, or other codes or devices to gain access to restricted portions of the Sites (“access codes”). We reserve the right to prohibit the use of such access codes on your behalf by third parties if we determine, in our sole and absolute discretion, that such use interferes with our Sites’ operation or results in commercial benefits for other entities to our detriment.
