Unless otherwise required by applicable law, your continued use of the Website after any changes become effective indicates your acceptance of the modified Terms of Service. Unless expressly stated otherwise by Ashoka, any new features, new services, enhancements or modifications to the Website implemented after you initially access the Website will be subject to the Terms of Service. 

THESE TERMS OF SERVICE INCLUDE WAIVER BY YOU OF ALL CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES AGAINST US THAT MAY ARISE FROM YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. BY USING OUR WEBSITE, YOU ACCEPT THIS WAIVER, UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

Certain parts of the Website allow you to post or upload information, data, text, software, music, sound, photographs, graphics, videos, messages and other materials, some or all of which may be material protected by copyright or other intellectual property rights ("User Provided Content"). You are entirely responsible for all User Provided Content that you make available on or through the Website, whether published or transmitted privately or publicly. You agree that when you post User Provided Content or information on the Website, you are permitting all users of the Website to access and use your content or information, and to associate it with you (e.g., your profile name and picture). 

In order to ensure that the Website remains available to support Ashoka's mission, by accepting these Terms of Service, you are granting broad permission for the exploitation, redistribution and reuse of all content you contribute or post to the Website under (i) the "Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported" (CC BY-SA 3.0), under which you permit your content to be shared and adapted for any purpose, including commercially, in compliance with the terms applicable to the license; and (ii) the "GNU Free Documentation License", under which you permit your content to be copied or redistributed, with or without modification, in a commercial or non-commercial manner, in compliance with the terms applicable to the license. 

Thus, for any User Provided Content for which you own the intellectual or industrial property rights, you agree - by providing it through the Website - to license such content on the terms described in this section. If you wish to contribute content or material of other authors or of which you are a joint author, you may do so only if you have the permission of the other authors and on the same terms and conditions as indicated above in this section. Ashoka may not accept or remove any User Provided Content at its sole and absolute discretion. In addition, by providing User Provided Content, you authorize Ashoka to make copies of such content, as we deem necessary to facilitate publication and storage of the content on the Website. 

You take full responsibility and risk for your use of our Website. You are solely responsible for evaluating the accuracy, completeness and usefulness of all information you access or obtain through the Website.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Ashoka will not be liable in any way for any Content or User Provided Content, including errors or omissions in any part of the Content or User Provided Content, or loss or damage of any kind incurred, because of your use of any part of the Content or User Provided Content. You hereby agree to release Ashoka from any and all claims, demands or damages of any kind and nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes or use of the Website, except as otherwise provided by applicable law.

19. MISCELLANEOUS

If any provision or part of the Terms of Service is determined to be contrary to applicable law, the interpretation of such provision or part thereof shall be modified only as necessary to comply with applicable law. Hence, such provision shall be interpreted as closely as possible while complying with applicable law to reflect the provision as it is drafted, and all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. 

If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that a provision of these Terms of Service is invalid, that provision shall be removed from the Terms of Service without affecting the remainder of the Terms of Service, and the remaining provisions of the Terms of Service shall remain valid and enforceable. 

The terms "includes," "include," "including," "which include" mean "including without limitation" as used herein. Failure of Ashoka to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged by Ashoka in writing. 

These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and Ashoka with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreements. You may not assign the Terms of Service to any other party, and any attempt to do so shall be invalid. Unless otherwise permitted by applicable law, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Website or the Terms of Service must be filed within one year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. Neither the Terms of Service nor any right or license granted in these Terms of Service may be transferred or assigned by you, but may be transferred or assigned by Ashoka without restriction.
