Terms of Use

Your Account. To use certain features of the Site, you may be required to create an account. If you choose to create an account, you agree to provide and maintain current, accurate, complete, and true information about yourself as requested at the time of registration or any other time information is requested. Your account is unique to you as an individual and you cannot be associated with more than one account. Your username and password are for your personal use only. If you use the Site, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to your computer, and you agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account or password. In addition to all other rights available to Monster, Monster reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate your account and/or refuse services to you. Our Privacy Policy governs the data you provide in connection with your account and certain other information about you.  

Intellectual Property. The content, organization, graphics, design, compilation, and other matters related to the Site are protected under applicable U.S. and international copyright, trademark and intellectual property laws. “Monster”, our logos, trademarks, service marks, tradenames and other distinctive marks designating Monster or the Site are either trademarks or registered trademarks of Monster or the Monster Affiliates (“Trademarks”). We exclusively own all worldwide right, title and interest in and to all the Trademarks, documentation, software, contents, graphics, designs, data, computer codes, ideas, know-how, “look and feel,” compilations, magnetic translations, digital conversions and other materials included within the Site and related to the Site, and all modifications and derivative works thereof, and all intellectual property rights related thereto (the “Intellectual Property”). The posting of information or materials on the Site by us does not constitute a waiver of any rights in any Intellectual Property or such information and materials. You shall not challenge, contest or otherwise impair Monster’s ownership of the Site and the content therein or the validity or enforceability of our rights in the Intellectual Property. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to edit or delete any information or other content appearing on the Site at any time without notice. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed by implication, estoppel or otherwise as granting to the user an ownership interest in the Site, Intellectual Property or any copyright, trademark, patent or other intellectual property right of Monster, the Monster Affiliates or any third party. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Monster grants you a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to access and make personal use of the Site and the Intellectual Property contained therein solely for your own personal, noncommercial use and only to the extent such use does not violate this Agreement. None of the material on our Site may be downloaded, distributed, reproduced, republished, posted, transmitted or copied in any form or by any means, without the prior written permission of Monster, which permission may be withheld in our sole and absolute discretion. 

No Solicitation. While we love to hear from our fans, it is Monster’s policy not to accept unsolicited submissions of ideas or other creative material. This is to avoid any misunderstandings if Monster’s products or marketing that we develop independently seem similar to ideas submitted to us. We must therefore request that you do not send us any original creative materials such as ideas for new or improved products, advertising campaigns, or product names, etc. Any communication or material you do transmit to the Site by electronic mail or otherwise will be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary. Anything you transmit or post may be used by Monster or the Monster Affiliates for any purpose, including, but not limited to, reproduction, disclosure, transmission, publication, broadcast, and posting. Furthermore, Monster and the Monster Affiliates are free to use any ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques contained in any communication you send to the Site (the “Feedback”) for any purpose whatsoever, including, but not limited to, developing, and marketing products using such information. You hereby assign and undertake to assign to Monster, on your behalf, all right, title and interest in and to the Feedback, and this assignment shall be effective as of the date of creation of such right, title and interest. You agree and undertake to waive any moral rights you have or may have in and to the Feedback. You also agree to complete and sign any documents that Monster may reasonably require to give full effect to this provision. 

Copyright Policy. All original works reproduced or published on the Site are protected by copyright. The owner of the copyright in each work reserves all rights to it. You acknowledge and agree that it is an infringement of copyright for any person to do, without the consent of the copyright owner, anything that only the copyright owner has the right to do under applicable copyright laws. Without limiting the foregoing, if you believe that your work has been copied and posted on the Site in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide us with the following information: a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed and where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Site; your address, telephone number, and email address; a written statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; a signed statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.
