This agreement contains the following provisions:
This is an agreement between you and Hospall and governs your use of the Hospall Web Site and its content and the services and goods provided through the Web Site. Each time you visit, browse, purchase, access or otherwise use this Web Site you signify your acceptance and agreement, and the acceptance and agreement of any person you purport to represent (and for purposes of this agreement, “person” includes any type of incorporated or unincorporated entity, including your employer), without limitation or qualification, to be bound by this agreement for using this Web Site, and to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, and you represent and warrant that you have the legal authority to agree to and accept this agreement on behalf of yourself and any person (such as your employer) you purport to represent. If you do not agree with each provision of this agreement, or you are not authorized to agree to and accept this agreement, or you do not have the legal authority to agree to and accept this agreement, you may not use the Web Site.
You may not change, supplement, or amend this agreement in any manner.
