  1. BECOMING A MEMBER AND REGISTRATION.
    • A. Accessing the Site and Becoming a Member.

While there are parts of the Website that are available only to individuals who purchase a fee-based membership and services, there is no cost to register on our Website or use our non-fee based services. If you are merely surfing or browsing through the site and have not yet registered to become a member, your use of the website is still subject to the Terms of Use; if you do not agree to the Terms of Use, do not use the website. The services available to you will vary depending upon whether you register as a member and whether or not you choose to purchase a fee-based membership. Your use of the Website may also be subject to terms outlined elsewhere in this agreement. You are responsible for reviewing these terms as they also form a binding part of our agreement with you. Once you register with us as a non-paying member or purchase a fee-based subscription, we consider you a "member" of the Dental Learning community. Your membership and password are only valid for your personal, non-commercial use of Dental Learning.

    • B. Your Information.

When you register on the Website we may ask you to provide us with certain personal information about yourself including, without limitation, your name, address, telephone number, email or other electronic address and applicable billing information (e.g., credit card number and expiration date) (collectively, "Your Information"). Please review our Privacy Policy for clarification on how we may use Your Information and other information that you may provide or submit while using the Website and our Services. For your part, you agree that all Your Information that you provide to us is complete, accurate and up to date. You will notify us of any changes to Your Information. If you fail to update Your Information or if all or part of Your Information is (or appears to be) untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete we may suspend or terminate your membership and refuse any and all current or future use of our Website and Services, without refund to you of any fees paid.

Without limiting any of the foregoing, you are responsible for ensuring that the email address you submit to the Site as part of your registration and during the course of your membership is valid and that the services, software or systems you use to access your email do not block or filter communication from Dental Learning. Please note that your work email may be subject to additional limitations placed on its use by your employer. We ask that you use your personal email address when registering as a member. If you choose to register with your work email, or use an email System that interferes with the delivery of Dental Learning communications, we may not be able to provide you with certain Services.

In order to cooperate with governmental requests, subpoenas or court orders, to protect our systems, or to ensure the integrity and operation of our business and systems, we may access and disclose any information we consider necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, Your Information, IP address and traffic information, usage history, and Content you have posted on the Website. Our right to disclose any such information shall govern over any terms of our Privacy Policy.

    • C. Your Password.

During the registration process you will choose a specific user ID. We will also ask you to create a password. Because any activities that occur under your user ID or password are your responsibility it is important for you to keep your user ID and password secure. Notify us immediately if you believe that someone has used your registration or password without your authorization.

    • D. Communications.

From time to time we will send you communications, in keeping with our Privacy Policy and as otherwise permitted in these Terms of Use. Please note that any number of issues may interfere with your receipt of such communications, including, without limit, some types of email systems that may use filtering or blocking techniques that are intended to block email. Dental Learning is not responsible for the actual delivery or your receipt of these communications.
