Subscriber means individuals and Reach150 Clients that solicit Recommendations.
Client means the company who contracts with Reach150. From time to time, the Client is also the Subscriber.

It also includes time and date of submission.
Profile means the publicly viewable web page that includes your photo, bio and contact information provided by you (or by us if asked to by you). It also includes but is not limited to your published recommendations, and links to other Subscribers who are part of the same Client if any.

3. Specific Terms for Users

When you provide a Recommendation to the Subscriber or Client who invited you to contribute the Recommendation, you are providing content that they can use as they see fit in accordance with our "Terms for Subscribers" and our "Terms for Clients," each of which is below. In addition:

1. For content that is covered by intellectual property rights, you specifically give us the following permission, you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any intellectual property content that you post on or in connection with Reach150 (the "IP License").
2. You cannot delete your Recommendation. You can request that it be removed by contacting the Reach150 Subscriber or Client and asking them to remove it from public view. When it is removed, it is hidden from public view rather than deleted. You understand that hidden content may persist in backup copies for an indefinite period of time (but will not be available to others unless the Subscriber or Client publishes it again).
3. Your content may be shared on social networks such as Facebook and Twitter, and indexed and archived in search engines functions. Reach150 has no control of these systems and you understand that it is not possible for Reach150 to remove your post from these services.
4. When you publish a Recommendation, it means that you are allowing everyone, including people off of Reach150, to access and use that information, and to associate it with you (i.e., your name, title, and photo if provided by you).
5. You are not required to provide Recommendations; however, if you do provide a Recommendation, it must be truthful.
6. The Subscriber or Client can hide any Recommendation for any reason. Reach150 does not control what is published. Only the Subscriber and Client control what is published.
7. As a provider of Recommendations, you are not required and cannot create an account with us. For this reason once you contribute a recommendation you cannot edit it nor can you delete it. You need to contact the recipient of the Recommendation (the Subscriber) to hide the Recommendation if you wish to re-submit it or have it removed from public viewing.
8. We always appreciate your feedback or other suggestions about Reach150, but you understand that we may use them without any obligation to compensate you for them (just as you have no obligation to offer them).
