B. ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE ONLY TO REGISTERED USERS
21. Incorporation
The additional terms contained in the following paragraphs are intended to apply to users who register accounts, creating a user name and password for themselves, to post comments and questions in the public areas of the site, transact eCommerce business and/or to become members of the Legal.com Attorney Network. It is understood that these additional terms are combined with the preceding terms which apply to all users and site visitors, whether registered or not, so that all provisions of Sections A and B are incorporated together to form a single contract.
- Accounts and Security
As part of the registration process, each user will select a login name and password. You agree to provide Legal.com with accurate and complete information, which you will keep updated. For consumers, your login name should identify you and not be offensive to others; but, respecting your online privacy, it does not have to be your actual name. For professional members of the Legal.com Attorney Network, it is recommended that your login name identifies you as a professional. It will be your online identity when you post articles and comments, or answer user questions. It will also become your email address @Legal.com. Consider using your first initial + last name, or firm name.
In any event, you may not:
- select or use a login name of another person with the intent to impersonate that person;
- use a name subject to the rights of any other person without authorization;
- use a login name that this site, in its sole discretion, deems inappropriate or offensive.
You shall notify Legal.com of any known or suspected unauthorized use(s) of your account, or any known or suspected breach of security, including loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure of your password. You shall be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password.
