The Services may contain material, such as software, text, graphics, images, sound recordings, audiovisual works, and other material provided by or on behalf of Sumpto (collectively referred to as the “Sumpto IP”). The Sumpto IP may be owned by us or by third parties. The Sumpto IP is protected under both United States and foreign laws. Unauthorized use of the Sumpto IP may violate copyright, trademark, and other laws. You have no rights in or to the Sumpto IP, and you will not use the Sumpto IP except as permitted under this Agreement. No other use is permitted without prior written consent from us.

The use or posting of the Sumpto IP on any other website or in a networked computer environment for any purpose is expressly prohibited.

  (b)   If you violate any part of this Agreement, your permission to access and/or use the Sumpto IP and the Services automatically terminates and you must immediately destroy any copies you have made of the Sumpto IP.

Other company, product, and service names located on the Services may be trademarks or service marks owned by others (the “Third-Party Trademarks”, and, collectively with the Sumpto Trademarks, the “Trademarks”). Nothing on the Services should be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use the Trademarks, without our prior written permission specific for each such use. Use of the Trademarks as part of a link to or from any site is prohibited unless establishment of such a link is approved in advance by us in writing. All goodwill generated from the use of the Sumpto Trademarks inures to our benefit.
