You will know that you are no longer on Maryville-TN.com 's Web site when you see a new address in the search box. The external online resources to which external links connect and the interaction that may occur, will not be governed by Maryville-TN.com 's policies, but instead by other third party Web site terms, conditions, policies and laws.

Each User, by agreeing to the terms hereof, acknowledges that they have read and understood our privacy policy and agree to be bound by the terms thereof.
18. With any User registration, we automatically capture the IP address and host name (if available) of the User's originating server. The IP address identifies the computer a User is working on, but does not reveal any personal information about the User. This information helps us to diagnose problems with our server. It also allows us to direct improvements to our Service by gathering broad, non-attributed demographic information about general patterns of User use of the Service.
19. Our Service employs cookie files. You acknowledge and agree to our use of cookie files. Our use of cookies is more fully described in our privacy policy.
This Agreement, including any exhibits hereto constitutes the entire agreement among the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter of the Agreement. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except in writing signed by the party against whom the amendment is to be enforced or by, in the case of amendments made by Realty III, Inc., the posting of the amendments (or the Agreement, as so amended) on its Service. User shall not be entitled to assign or transfer any of its rights hereunder or allow any person to obtain the benefits of such rights (including, without limitation, allowing any third party to obtain access to the Service) without Realty III, Inc.'s prior written consent.
