Your use of the iTunes-Downloaded Software must comply with the App Store Terms of Service. You acknowledge that Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the iTunes-Downloaded Software.

SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES (SNS)

As part of the functionality of the Platform, your Organization may allow you to link your User account with various online accounts you have with certain Social Network Sites to our Platform. As a User, you will then have the option to link your SNS to our Platform. Once connected, the SNS will send us your user profile (including profile photo, handle name) and analytics information about the posts you share on their platform, such as how many people potentially see a post, the number of responses generated by your content, and information about the activity related to your post, including responses and identity of individuals who interact with such content. This information may then be viewable by the Organization and us. Your SNS profile photo and handle name may also be viewable by other Users in your Community. We do not collect passwords to your SNS, as that information is confirmed by the SNS separate from our Platform. Certain SNS permit sharing without linking to our platform. In these cases, the information collected may be a subset of the above. By linking your SNS to our Platform, you are granting the Organization and us permission to access and collect the limited data described above.
