3. Use of the Services .

License. You are granted a limited, non-sublicensable license (“ License”) to access and use the Services solely on the terms and conditions set forth in these Terms. The License does not include (and you are prohibited from): (a) modifying or otherwise making any derivative uses of the Services; (b) use of any data mining, robots or similar data gathering or extraction methods; (c) any reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling or hacking of any aspect of the Services or any part thereof, or attempting to do any of the foregoing, except and solely to the extent permitted by these Terms; (d) downloading (other than the page caching) of any portion of the Services or any information contained therein, except as expressly permitted by these Terms; or (e) any use of the Services other than for their intended purpose. Any use of the Services other than as specifically authorized herein, without the prior written permission of RealScout, is strictly prohibited and will terminate the License granted herein.
Ownership. Except for the licenses granted herein, you acknowledge that you have no right, title or interest in or to the Services, RealScout Marks (as defined below), or any of the Services’ content . RealScout and its licensors own and reserve all right, title, and interest in and to all intellectual property rights embodied in or related to the Services or any of its content, except for Business Customer Information (defined below) and Submitted Data (defined below).
Third-Party Content. RealScout may provide information about third-party products, services, activities or events, or allow third parties to make their content and information available on or through the Services, including publicly available government sources or through multiple listing services or otherwise posted, transmitted, distributed or made available by third parties, including other users (collectively the “ Third-Party Content”). RealScout provides Third-Party Content as a service to those interested in such content. Your dealings or correspondence with third parties and your use of or interaction with any Third-Party Content are solely between you and the third party. RealScout does not approve, endorse, control, or adopt any Third-Party Content and makes no representation or warranties of any kind regarding such Third Party Content, and your access to and use of such Third-Party Content is at your own risk. Issues of data accuracy may be brought to the attention of RealScout by sending feedback but it is likely that such information accuracy cannot be corrected by RealScout and the entity or person that generated the information must be appealed to. For example: incorrect listing information can only be changed by the third-party listing agent under our terms with the various multiple listing services (each an “MLS”) that we use.
Additional Terms. The Services may occasionally require that you agree to additional terms to use the Services, including those relating to Third-Party Content. Any terms required by RealScout for use of any portion of the Services offered by RealScout (but not those of any Third-Party Content) will, unless otherwise expressly stated in such terms, supersede these Terms in the event of a conflict only as to the content, functionality or features of the Services with respect to which those terms relate. Such additional terms (if any) (but not those of any Third-Party Content or services) are hereby incorporated into and made a part of these Terms by reference.
Equal Housing Opportunity. All real estate advertised herein is subject to the Federal Fair Housing Act , which makes it illegal to advertise “any preference, limitation, or discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin, or intention to make any such preference, limitation, or discrimination.” All persons are hereby informed that all dwellings advertised are available on an equal opportunity basis. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) has published guidelines for those who advertise homes for sale. You can report housing discrimination to HUD in a number of ways, including via phone at 1-800-669-7777 or via web form. HUD provides a number of resources for consumers and professionals relating to fair housing. This is a good place to start: http://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/program_offices/fair_housing_equal_opp/FHLaws/yourrights. State governments and many local governments have similar laws prohibiting discrimination in housing. This excellent resource can help you find local fair housing enforcement agencies around the country: http://www.fairhousing.com/index.cfm?method=agency.search.

Waiver. A provision of these Terms may be waived only by a written instrument executed by the party entitled to the benefit of such provision. The failure of RealScout to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
Severability. If any provision of these Terms shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
Assignment. These Terms, and any rights and obligations granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without the prior written consent of RealScout, but may be assigned by RealScout without restriction.
