For Members:

1. Kemet OnLine members are responsible for any work, such as writing, graphics, files, etc. that they post on the conferencing boards or other areas of the site.
   
   This means legally and ethically responsible, including getting permission of any copyright holder before posting any copyrighted work.

This also includes the right of Kemet OnLine to copy such work as part of normal backup processes and of Kemet OnLine hosts to archive such work as part of the regular archiving of topics. Posting work on KemetOnLine areas does not give other members the right to use such work for any other than personal use without prior permission of the author.

   Kemet OnLine cannot provide any guarantee or protection from any such legal problems arising from members posting their work.

Kemet Online may change the terms of these agreements at any time and will notify members of any change in the conference designated for these announcements.
