We do not have control over such third-party websites. You will need to make your own independent judgment regarding your interaction with them. Furthermore, the trademarks used in connection with such third party websites may not be trademarks of Ganz.

Your correspondence or business dealings with, or participation in promotions of, third party service providers and advertisers, whether or not found on or through the Service, including payment and delivery of related goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such third party service provider or advertiser, as the case may be.

You and not Ganz shall be responsible for purchasing any necessary additional software and/or hardware in order to access the Service. If you download, access or use software through the Service, the software, including any files, codes, images, and audio clips incorporated in or generated by the software, and data accompanying the software (collectively, the "Software") are licensed to you for your personal, non-commercial use pursuant to a personal, non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable licence. Ganz keeps full and complete title to the Software and all Intellectual Property Rights therein. You may not redistribute, sell, lend, decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise render the Software to a human-readable form. Any unauthorized or prohibited use may subject you to civil liability and criminal prosecution under applicable laws.
- Free Trial. From time to time, Ganz may offer a free trial subscription to the Service. Trial subscriptions are not transferable.
- Beta Tests. From time to time, Ganz may offer you the opportunity to review and evaluate a game prior to its commercial release for the sole purpose of evaluating the game and identifying errors. This process is known as a "Beta Test". The beta games are provided for testing on an "as is" and "as available" basis and Ganz makes no warranty to you of any kind, express or implied, with respect to such beta games. Furthermore, nothing herein shall be construed as granting you any rights or privileges of any kind with respect to beta games. When playing some beta games, you may accumulate online currencies, game points or other items. Such data may be erased when the testing phase is complete. You understand and agree that the pre-release copy and all other Content provided to you by Ganz during the Beta Test are confidential and proprietary information owned by Ganz. You agree as a condition of participating in a Beta Test to safeguard the pre-release Content and prevent its copying, reproduction or unauthorized access, disclosure or use. Your obligation to keep the Beta Test Content confidential will continue until Ganz publicly distributes, or has otherwise disclosed it to the public, through no fault of yours.
- CONTENT
All content offered by Ganz through the Service, including but not limited to audio, video, text, graphics, images and information and all other material appearing on or emanating to and/or from the Service, as well as their overall design and appearance, (collectively and individually, "Content") is owned, controlled or licensed by or to Ganz, and is protected by trade dress, copyright, patent and trademark laws, and various other intellectual property rights and unfair competition laws within and outside of Canada. You acknowledge that any reliance upon any review, advice, opinion, statement, or other Content, is at your sole risk. Such Content is presented for educational, entertainment and informational purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for professional advice of any sort, including, without limitation, medical, legal, tax, investment or insurance advice.
Subject to the Terms of Use and so long as you remain compliant with the Terms of Use, Ganz grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable, fully revocable licence to use such Content in conjunction with the Service. You may not modify, publish, transmit, transfer, sell, reproduce, upload, post, perform, display, create derivative works from, in any way exploit such Content or distribute it in any way (including "mirroring") to any other computer, server, website or other medium for publication or distribution or for any commercial purpose, except as Ganz expressly permits in the Terms of Use. For clarification purposes only, a "derivative work based on" the Content is a work substantially similar, both in ideas and expression, to the Content. Similarity of ideas in the Content and derivative works concern similarities between things such as plot, theme, mood, setting, appearance, and character traits. Similarity of expression concerns the total concept and feel of the Content and the derivative works. Thus, if a work created by you or someone other than Ganz is likely to bring to mind the Content, then it is likely that such work is a derivative work of the Content, and as such may not be used for commercial purposes.
You may use information on Ganz products and services purposely made available by Ganz for downloading for your own personal, non-commercial use, provided that you agree not to remove, obscure, or alter copyright, patent, trademark, or other proprietary right notices affixed to such Content, or block visual elements adjoining such Content. Without limiting the generality of the Terms of Use, you shall not use any Content on any other website or network computer environment or in a manner that suggests an association with any of our Services or Ganz itself, or in a manner that disparages us.
Ganz reserves all rights in Ganz-owned and licensed Content that are not expressly granted to you in the Terms of Use. Making unauthorized copies of the Content may result in the termination of your Account, prohibition to use the Service, and further legal action.
We take great care and pride in the Service and are always on the lookout for technical glitches that affect it. When we find them on our end, we will fix them. Unfortunately, your home computer may cause some glitches that affect how you see our Site and that is beyond our control.
If you experience any unusual behavior, content or ads on the Site, it may be the result of Malware on your computer. Malware is a term used to broadly classify a form of software which is installed in a computer system with malicious intentions, usually without the owner's knowledge or permission. Malware includes computer viruses, key loggers, malicious active content, rogue programs and dialers, among others. While we continuously work closely with our partners to ensure that the Service is delivered property, sometimes Malware programs on your personal computer may interfere with your experience on our Site and on other sites that you visit.
We suggest that you take some of the following actions which may assist in cleaning your computer and which could prevent future installations of Malware.
- Update your computer via Windows Update (found in the Tools menu in your Internet Explorer web browser);
- Install a SpyWare Removal Tool to clean your computer of Malware, e.g. Spybot Search and Destroy or AdAware;
- Install antivirus software;
- Install Microsoft Defender (for Windows computers).
Please note that we cannot be responsible for the effects of any third-party software including Malware on your computer system. Please make sure to carefully read the Help or Customer Support areas of any software download site. If you do discover any Malware on your system, we also suggest you speak with a qualified computer technician. If, after taking the above actions, you are still experiencing any problems, please feel free to contact our Customer Service Representative.
From time to time, Ganz may offer, for "real world" money, licences to use (a) "virtual currency", including but not limited to virtual coins, cash, tokens, or points, all for use in the Service; (b) "virtual in-game items" (together with "virtual currency", "eStore Items"); and (c) other goods or services . Where offered, you may also be able to obtain a licence to use eStore Items by redeeming third party virtual currency such as Facebook Credits.
Where offered, you may place an order by visiting the purchase page in one of our games and following the applicable rules. When you place an order, we may send you a confirmatory e-mail that will contain details of your order. Please check that the details in the confirmatory e-mail are correct as soon as possible and maintain a copy of it for your records. Ganz keeps records of transactions in order to deal with any subsequent queries. If you purchase Facebook Credits from Facebook, you are agreeing to Facebook's Payment Terms and Ganz is not a party to that transaction.
For eStore Items, your order will represent an offer to us to acquire a licence which will be accepted by us when we make the eStore Items available in your Account for you to use in our games or debit your credit card, whichever comes first. If you reside in the European Union and you purchase a product or service from Ganz, you have the right to withdraw from a purchase within seven calendar days, commencing on the day after the date of purchase (the "Cooling Off Period"). However, you lose your right of withdrawal if the performance of the services begins before the end of the Cooling Off Period. Accordingly, please note that if you order eStore Items from us, your right of withdrawal is lost as the performance of our services begins immediately once your order is placed with us.
- In-Game Currency and Game Points. In-game currency is not a real currency or any type of financial instrument but rather a virtual token representing contractual permission from Ganz to access various features of the Service. In order to obtain the in-game currency (e.g. eStore Points), you may be required to either use Facebook Credits or provide us or another payment service designated by us with your credit card information and other information related to your credit card transaction (e.g., your billing and shipping address on record with the applicable credit card company, your credit card expiration date, etc.). You may be awarded game points by playing games and completing in-game challenges, or through certain promotional events. When offered, you may be able to exchange game points earned for game points used on an Affiliated Site. All eStore Items obtained from Ganz in-game will be included in your Account until the earlier of your Account's expiration or termination date, or such date when the Service is discontinued. REGARDLESS OF THE CONSIDERATION OFFERED OR PAID IN EXCHANGE FOR THE ESTORE ITEMS, INCLUDING ESTORE POINTS, YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY OWNERSHIP RIGHT IN THEM. NO INTEREST IS PAID OR EARNED ON THE REMAINING BALANCE.
- Fees and Taxes. Our published fees and billing procedures apply to the payment of fees and are incorporated herein by this reference. You may pay fees using the methods available for the particular Service and you agree to the terms and conditions applicable to each payment method you choose. When you provide credit card or other payment information to Ganz, you represent to Ganz that you are the authorized user of the credit card or other payment method. YOU ARE FULLY LIABLE FOR ALL CHARGES TO YOUR ACCOUNT AND YOUR CHOSEN METHOD OF PAYMENT. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT ONCE YOU AUTHORIZE US OR ANOTHER DESIGNATED PAYMENT SERVICE TO CHARGE YOUR CREDIT CARD FOR A CERTAIN AMOUNT, SUCH AMOUNT SHALL UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES BE REFUNDABLE IN WHOLE OR IN PART, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, UPON TERMINATION OF YOUR ACCOUNT FOR ANY REASON, TERMINATION OF THE TERMS OF USE, TERMINATION OF THE ONLINE STORE AND/OR INTERRUPTION OR DISCONTINUATION OF THE SERVICE. If you choose a recurring subscription to any Service, you acknowledge that payments will be processed automatically until you cancel the subscription or the Account.
- Order Processing. If you place an eStore Item order with Ganz, you warrant that (i) you are of the age of majority in your jurisdiction, (ii) your use of the particular credit card or other accepted method of payment is authorized, (iii) all information that you submit is true and accurate, and (iv) you agree to pay all fees you incur, including all recurring subscription fees unless and until you affirmatively terminate the Service or Account in accordance with the steps outlined by Ganz. Where and to the extent required by applicable laws, you will be able to verify and modify your order information before confirming your order. Where offered, you will receive an e-mail receipt from Ganz providing full details of your purchase/subscription as well as have the purchase recorded in your Account history.
- Price Changes. Ganz may change prices and fees at any time, without notice. If you pay a periodic subscription fee, Ganz will provide you with notice of any change to the fee or billing method in advance.
- USER GENERATED CONTENT
While using the Service, you may be given the opportunity to submit to Ganz, among other things, (i) images, art, and/or fiction and/or (ii) comments, suggestions, ideas, notes, feedback, concepts or other information (collectively referred to as "User Generated Content"). User Generated Content may be solicited or unsolicited. Except as expressly stated in the Terms of Use, its provisions apply equally to Unsolicited User Generated Content and Solicited User Generated Content (collectively and individually, "User Generated Content" or "Submission"). "Solicited User Generated Content" means those submissions (a) that we expressly request or enable you to provide to us via any feature or activity for our review or display and possible specifically-defined consideration or compensation (collectively, "Consideration") (such as prizes or other value in games, contests and promotions); and (b) that you distribute for which you do not seek Consideration (such as through our social communication features). "Unsolicited User Generated Content" includes any and all submissions that do not fall within the above subparagraphs (a) or (b).
By transmitting or submitting any User Generated Content through the Service, you affirm, represent and warrant that such transmission or submission is (a) accurate and not confidential; (b) not in violation of any laws, contractual restrictions or other third party rights, and that you have permission from any third party whose personal information or intellectual property is comprised in the User Generated Content; (c) free of viruses, adware, spyware, worms or other malicious code; and (d) you acknowledge and agree that any of your personal information within such content will at all times be governed by the Privacy Policy. Ganz may, without prior notice to you, remove User Generated Content including that which appears to infringe the intellectual property or other rights of third parties.
DO NOT SUBMIT ANY UNSOLICITED USER GENERATED CONTENT; NO IMPLIED CONTRACT. Our long-standing company policy does not allow us to accept or consider Unsolicited User Generated Content so please do not submit it. We want to avoid the possibility of future misunderstandings when projects developed by us or under our direction might seem to others to be similar to their own creative work. In any event, you agree that any Submission you make is not being made in confidence or trust and that no confidential or fiduciary relationship is intended or created between you and us in any way, and that you have no expectation of any review, compensation or consideration of any type (other than any stated Consideration). Ganz reserves the right to return Unsolicited User Generated Content without reviewing it.
You hereby grant us and our licensees, distributors, agents, representatives and other authorized users, a perpetual, non-exclusive, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free, sub-licensable and transferable (in whole or in part) worldwide licence under all copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, privacy and publicity rights and other intellectual property rights, including the right to sublicense and assign to third parties (collectively, "Intellectual Property Rights") you own or control to copy, fix, use, reproduce, transmit, display, exhibit, distribute, index, comment on, modify, adapt, improve, reformat, manufacture, introduce into circulation, commercialize, publish, create derivative works based on, perform, sell, license, sublicense, transfer, rent, lease, transmit, provide access to electronically, enter into computer memory, and otherwise exploit such User Generated Content, in whole or in part, in any way and in all media formats and channels now known or hereafter devised (including on any of the Affiliated Sites, on third party websites, on broadband and wireless platforms, products and services, and on physical media) for any and all purposes including entertainment, news, advertising, promotional, marketing, publicity, trade or commercial purposes, all without further notice to you, with or without attribution, and without the requirement of any permission from or payment to you or to any other person or entity.
You hereby appoint us as your agent with full power to enter into and execute any document and/or do any act we may consider appropriate to confirm the grant of rights, consents, agreements, assignments and waivers set forth in the Terms of Use. To the extent any "moral rights," "ancillary rights," or similar rights exist in or to such User Generated Content and are not exclusively owned by us, you hereby waive and agree not to enforce any such rights as to us or our licensees, distributors, agents, representatives and other authorized users, and you shall procure the same agreement not to enforce from anyone who may possess such rights.
- CHAT AND FORUM PARTICIPATION
As part of the Service, Ganz may offer users various social communication features (e.g. discussion boards, user-generated pages such as blogs, messaging services, user generated video, images and other interactive features, including chat rooms, which allow you and other users to post information, provide feedback and interact in real-time) that permit them, consistent with applicable laws, to post comments, information and opinions visible to others. To the extent that the Service provides users an opportunity to post and/or exchange information, ideas, opinions, photographs, images, video, creative works, or any other material (the "Postings"), please be advised that such Postings do not necessarily reflect the views of Ganz.
You further acknowledge that a large volume of information is exchanged through such Postings and that people occasionally post messages or make statements, whether intentionally or unintentionally, that are inaccurate, misleading, deceptive, abusive or even unlawful. We neither endorse nor are responsible for such messages or statements, or for any opinion, advice, information or other utterance made or displayed in the forums/chat rooms by you or other users of the Service.
WHEN USING THE SOCIAL COMMUNICATION FEATURES YOU AGREE NOT TO:

Under no circumstances will Ganz, any of its partners, affiliates, related companies, or any of their directors, employees, agents, distributors, licensees and licensors (collectively and individually, the "Ganz Group") be responsible for any errors or omissions in the Postings, or for hyperlinks embedded in them, or for any loss or damage caused by your use of a social communication feature or reliance on the information posted through such feature. You should be aware that, when you disclose information about yourself in a forum/chat room, the information is being made publicly available and may be collected and used by other Service users. When you disclose any information in a forum/chat room, you do so at your own risk.
Unless otherwise specified and except for the Service directed to children under the age of thirteen (13), there is no requirement or expectation that Ganz will monitor or record any online activity on the Service, including communications. You acknowledge and agree that, despite the foresaid, we have the right (but not the obligation) to monitor our social communication features as well as everything that you and the other users transmit and post; to alter or remove any such materials; to ban Accounts that breach our Privacy Policy and to disclose such materials and the circumstances surrounding their transmission to any third party in order to operate the Service properly, to protect ourselves, our sponsors and our users and visitors and/or to comply with legal obligations or governmental requests.

I got a bunch of snow last night too. I also got some snow today. I was sitting in Social Studies (one of my favorite classes) and I looked out the tiny window. I yelled out “Its snowing!” And then my two friends Caresa and Lexie look at me and then the window then start laughing. It was WAY TOO funny!
Then Mason started to look out the window and he said it was snowing too. Then the teacher told us to act like “Seventh Graders”. We are but we just like snow. 
*Luv from LillyLuvie*
We got some snow where I live, but barely any! It was freezing outside, and at my school you need to walk outside to get to gym. All the 6th and 7th graders were complaining. (Me too….) It’s a five minute walk…. so it was really cold. I don’t get it. Outside it’s so cold for nothing. We suffer the coldness, with barely ANY snow! This article is SO coolio too.
