GirlTime.com Terms Of Use Agreement
GirlTime (“Firecracker Associates“, “we” or “Ultravid“) operates GirlTime.com, which is a social networking service that allows Webcam Girls and Members to create unique personal profiles online in order to communicate and share with other Webcam Girls, Members or Users. The services offered by GirlTime include any GirlTime-branded URL (the "GirlTime Website"), any non-GirlTime-branded URL operated by Ultravid or its affiliates and any other features, content, or applications offered from time to time by GirlTime in connection with GirlTime’s business (collectively, the "GirlTime Services"). The GirlTime Services are hosted in the United States.
This Terms of Use Agreement ("Agreement") sets forth the legally binding terms for your use of the GirlTime Services. By using the GirlTime Services, you agree to be bound by this Agreement, whether you are a "Visitor" (which means that you simply browse the GirlTime Website or otherwise use the GirlTime Services without being registered), you are a “Webcam Girl” (which means that you have registered to earn commissions with GirlTime) or you are a "Member" (which means that you have registered with GirlTime).
The term "User" refers to a Visitor, a Webcam Girl or a Member. You are only authorized to use the GirlTime Services (regardless of whether your access or use is intended) if you agree to abide by all applicable laws and the terms of this Agreement. Please read this Agreement and save it. If you do not agree to be bound by this Agreement and to follow all applicable laws, you should leave the GirlTime Website and discontinue use of the GirlTime Services immediately. If you wish to become a Member or Webcam Girl, communicate with other Members or Webcam Girls and/or make use of the GirlTime Services, you must read this Agreement and indicate your acceptance during the registration process.
This Agreement includes GirlTime's policy for acceptable use of the GirlTime Services and Content (as defined in Section 6 below) posted on or through the GirlTime Services and your rights, obligations and restrictions regarding your use of the GirlTime Services and Content posted on or through the GirlTime Services.

Unless otherwise provided by the additional terms and conditions applicable to the GirlTime Services in which you choose to participate, those additional terms are hereby incorporated into this Agreement.
GirlTime may modify this Agreement from time to time and such modification shall be effective upon posting by GirlTime on the GirlTime Website. Your continued use of the GirlTime Services after GirlTime posts a revised Agreement signifies your acceptance of the revised Agreement. It is therefore important that you review this Agreement regularly to ensure you are updated as to any changes.
Please choose carefully the information you post on or through the GirlTime Services and that you provide to other Users. Your GirlTime profile may not include any form of Prohibited Content, as outlined in Section 8 below.
