Service Terms and Conditions

Introduction and Acceptance

From time to time, the Livestrong Foundation ("Foundation") may provide you with the opportunity to use certain services via one or more of its websites ("Services"). Some of these Services include the ability to use website development tools, to access a fundraising web space that can be personalized with your own content in order to create a personal webpage ("Personal Homepage"), and to create unique videos using Foundation-provided content and music as well as your own personal pictures ("Videos"). The term "Services" includes any tools, pictures, information, and other content provided by the Foundation in connection with the Services.

A limited license to use the Services shall be granted to you free of charge on the express condition that you accept, without modification, and abide by these Service Terms and Conditions ("Service Terms"). If you do not agree to these Service Terms, please do not use any of the Services. By using any of the Services, you agree that you have read, understood and agree unconditionally to be bound by these Service Terms, and further understand and agree that these Service Terms are in addition to our general Terms of Use, and that your use of each of the Services is subject to both these Service Terms and our general Terms of Use.

Please read these Service Terms carefully. From time to time and at its sole discretion, the Foundation reserves the right to change these Service Terms for any reason, with or without notice to you. However, if the Service Terms change, we will always post the revised Service Terms on our website www.Livestrong.org (our "Main Website") or another website that we designate as the successor Main Website. This means that the then-current Service Terms posted on the Main Website will always be the governing Service Terms. We encourage you to review the Service Terms regularly for any changes. Your continued use of the Services will mean acceptance of any changes we make to the Service Terms. You may view a printable version of these Service Terms by clicking here.

You may withdraw your consent to these Service Terms or the general Terms of Use at any time for any reason by providing written notice to us using the contact information provided below. In such event, we will have the right, but not the obligation, to promptly remove any content that you have stored on our websites or servers (including, without limitation, any videos or pictures that you have stored) and/or discontinue allowing access by third parties to such content (including, without limitation any Videos or Personal Homepages), and the provisions regarding termination below will apply.

If you have any questions about our Service Terms or would like to withdraw your consent to these Service Terms or the general Terms of Use, you may email us or write to:
