Welcome to Moms Digital World (“the site”)!
There are a few basic rules that we all have to follow when we use any site on the Internet. Most of the Terms of Use statements are drafted by lawyers, and they basically say the same things. Generally, these terms are based upon good, old fashioned common sense and courtesy. Yet, there are certain laws that have been established to protect the best interests of everybody who uses the Internet. If the laws change – or if something else requires a change in the way you can use the site – the terms of use can be changed without notice. It’s a good idea to revisit this page from time to time when using the site. As a general guideline, the same rules that apply to most other sites on the Internet will apply to the way you use this site.
If you decide that you want to use the site, you are agreeing to abide by the rules and laws that apply. If you feel that you can’t follow these rules, or that the relevant laws are either too restrictive or do not protect your individual rights as much as you would like them to, please do not use the site.
Before going any further, please read this entire document so that you will have a better understanding of how things work in Moms Digital World.
