By joining tcchrist.com you're agreeing to abide by the Terms of Service below. We've created these rules and guidelines in an effort to ensure that tcchrist.com is safe and fun for everybody. If you encounter another member who isn't abiding by these rules, please write to us. By agreeing to these terms, you're taking responsibility for your own actions.

Here are the highlights of the Terms of Service. We encourage you to read the full Terms of Services carefully. They govern your use of tcchrist.com.

• You gotta register to be able to buy books in the bookstore, participate in chats, subscribe to lists, and get to some discussion rooms.
• The Tcchrist protects your privacy. We don't share your name, e-mail address, or any other personal information with anyone. If you buy materials from us in the bookstore, we get information about you so we can send you your order.
• Be nice in the discussion and chat rooms. If you're not nice, we reserve the right to limit your use of the rooms.
• Don't rely on the information, advice, or opinions expressed by others in discussion or chat rooms. If you have a medical or psychiatric emergency, please call your physician or 911 immediately. Tcchrist.com's Discussion Rooms and Chat Rooms and prayer lists are not a referral service for professional services. It's your job to be responsible and seek help for yourself.
• We might have some links to other sites that don't have to do with The Tcchrist. We're not in control of material after you leave our site.
• Be sure and keep your password secret. Don't come crying to us if you told your Aunt Myrtle your password and then she signs you up for a bunch of e-mail newsletters you didn't want to get!
• We're not intending to steal anybody's copyrighted material. If you see something that's yours, be sure to let us know in writing.
• If the Tcchrist site should be down one day (God forbid), you can't hold us responsible for the crummy day you had because you didn't get to read your daily devotional.
• If you are inappropriate in your behavior on tcchrist.com and you break a bunch of rules, you can have your registration deleted.
• All this lawyer talk (below) is governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee.

6. Content of Discussion Rooms and Chat Rooms
Tcchrist.com's Discussion Rooms and Chat Rooms act only as a forum and technical interface between their users. The Tcchrist does not itself verify the qualifications of the users. The Tcchrist has no obligation to monitor the Discussion Rooms and Chat Rooms. The Tcchrist, generally, does not monitor or control any of the exchanges between the users or any content posted by the users to its Discussion Rooms and Chat Rooms. The Tcchrist reserves the right, however, to review such exchanges or content and to remove any such material, in its sole discretion. The Tcchrist does not endorse any of the exchanges or content posted by the users of its website and, therefore, specifically disclaims any liability with regard to such information and with regard to any actions resulting from your participation in the Discussion Rooms or Chat Rooms.

You should use your own judgment in evaluating the qualifications of, and statements made by, other users of tcchrist.com. Any opinions expressed by a user of tcchrist.com are those of that user alone, and are not those of The Tcchrist. The Tcchrist cannot and does not assume responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, safety, timeliness, legality or applicability of anything said or written by any user of tcchrist.com. You should not use the Discussion Rooms or Chat Rooms for emergency purposes or to seek or provide diagnosis or treatment of medical, psychiatric or psychological problems, or as a substitute for live professional consultation. If you have a medical or psychiatric emergency, please call your physician or 911 immediately. Tcchrist.com's Discussion Rooms and Chat Rooms are not a referral service for professional services. You must use your own judgment to determine when it is necessary to consult with a provider who is local, licensed in your state or country, available in person, or otherwise possesses qualities required to properly diagnose or advise you, especially in areas of medicine, law, accounting, psychological counseling, investment, tax or other financial advice, requiring government or regulatory licensing or certification, or for high-risk activities.

Any use by you of any other user's information, personal or otherwise, for any commercial purpose or to obtain direct financial gain (e.g. mass marketing) is prohibited.
