Activities of our customers or the content of their websites and other Internet properties may violate applicable laws and/or our terms of service and could subject us to lawsuits, regulatory enforcement actions, and/or liability in various jurisdictions.*

Through our network, we provide a wide variety of products that enable our customers, including free trial users, and our customers’ users to exchange information, conduct business, and engage in various online activities both domestically and internationally. Our customers, including free trial users, and our customers’ users may use our network and products in violation of applicable law or in violation of our terms of service or the customer’s own policies.

Additionally, the conduct of our customers, including free trial users, and our customers’ users may subject us to regulatory enforcement actions and/or liability.

An adverse decision in one or more of these lawsuits could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

If we are found not to be protected by the safe harbor provisions of the DMCA, CDA, or other similar laws, or if we are deemed subject to laws in other countries that may not
