These Website Terms of Use (“Terms”) are entered into between you and King Patent Law, PLLC (“KPL,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms govern your access to and use of kingpatentlaw.com, including the public content, functionality, and features available through the website (collectively, the “Website”).
Please read these Terms carefully. By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Website.
These Terms govern ordinary access to and use of the Website. More specific terms apply to certain transactions and relationships:
If a specific agreement or policy conflicts with these Terms concerning the subject it governs, the more specific agreement or policy controls for that subject.
The Website may contain articles, podcast materials, videos, FAQs, checklists, commentary, educational resources, and other information concerning intellectual property, business law, and related topics. Website content is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. It is not legal advice tailored to your circumstances and should not be treated as a substitute for advice from an attorney familiar with your facts and applicable law.
Accessing or using the Website, downloading free materials, submitting a general inquiry, scheduling a consultation, or communicating with KPL through the Website does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship. KPL agrees to represent a client only through a separate written engagement agreement.
Do not send highly sensitive, confidential, or time-sensitive information through a general Website form unless KPL has requested it. Nothing in these Terms limits any duties KPL may have under applicable rules of professional conduct with respect to prospective or existing clients.
Laws change, and Website content may not reflect the most recent legal developments. KPL does not undertake to update every item of Website content after publication.
We may modify, suspend, withdraw, or discontinue all or part of the Website at any time. We do not guarantee that the Website or any particular feature will always be available, uninterrupted, or error-free.
Some Website features may permit or require an account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for activity occurring through your account. You agree to provide accurate, current information and to notify us promptly if you become aware of unauthorized account access.
Purchases and other transactions requiring a binding agreement may be made only by persons with legal capacity to enter into that agreement. The Website is directed primarily to users in the United States.
The Website and its content, including text, graphics, logos, photographs, videos, audio, design elements, downloadable free resources, and other original material, are owned by KPL or used with permission and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
Unless a specific page or resource states otherwise, you may view Website content and may print or save reasonable portions for your own personal use or internal business reference. You may also share links to Website pages or use Website-provided social-sharing features in a fair and lawful manner that does not falsely suggest KPL sponsors, endorses, or is affiliated with you or your business.
You may not, without KPL’s prior written permission, reproduce or republish substantial portions of Website content; sell, license, or commercially distribute Website content; create a competing template, guide, checklist, course, database, or similar product from Website content; frame or present the Website in a misleading manner; or remove copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices from Website materials.
Purchased Digital Products are governed by the separate Digital Product Terms and License and not by the limited Website-content permission in this Section.
You may use the Website only for lawful purposes. You may not:
We may restrict or terminate access to the Website when reasonably necessary to protect the Website, KPL, other users, or our legal rights.
The Website may contain links to, or integrate features provided by, third parties, including scheduling services, payment processors, social-media platforms, video or podcast services, and other websites or online tools. Third-party services are provided for convenience and are governed by their own terms and privacy practices.
KPL does not control and is not responsible for the availability, content, accuracy, security, products, services, or privacy practices of third-party websites or services. A link or integration does not imply endorsement unless we expressly say otherwise.
Our Privacy Policy describes how personal information is collected, used, disclosed, and retained in connection with the Website. The Privacy Policy is a notice concerning KPL’s privacy practices and is not intended to expand these Terms or any attorney-client engagement agreement.
Purchases of Digital Products through the Website are governed by the Digital Product Terms and License accepted in connection with the purchase. Those terms govern the purchaser’s license, permitted uses, refund rules, and other terms specific to Digital Products.
A purchase of a Digital Product does not create an attorney-client relationship, include individualized legal advice, or expand the scope of any existing attorney-client relationship unless KPL separately agrees in writing.
Legal services are offered and performed only under a separate written engagement agreement. If you are a KPL client, your engagement agreement controls the legal-services relationship and nothing in these Website Terms modifies that agreement.
We may update, change, remove, or add Website content and features at any time. Content may become outdated, and we are not obligated to update previously published Website materials. We may also impose reasonable limits on Website access or functionality for maintenance, security, legal, or operational reasons.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE WEBSITE AND FREELY AVAILABLE WEBSITE CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” KPL DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, CONCERNING THE WEBSITE, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
KPL does not warrant that the Website will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, free of harmful components, or suitable for any particular purpose, or that Website content will be complete, current, or applicable to your circumstances.
This Section applies to the Website and freely available Website content. Warranties or disclaimers applicable to Digital Products or legal services are governed by the more specific agreement applicable to those products or services.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, KPL AND ITS OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST BUSINESS, LOST OPPORTUNITIES, LOSS OF DATA, OR SIMILAR LOSSES ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE WEBSITE OR FREELY AVAILABLE WEBSITE CONTENT.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, KPL’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ORDINARY WEBSITE ACCESS OR USE WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).
These limitations do not apply to liability that applicable law does not permit KPL to limit or exclude. Liability relating to a purchased Digital Product or legal-service engagement is governed by the more specific agreement applicable to that transaction or engagement.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless KPL and its owners, employees, and agents from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, and reasonable enforcement or defense costs arising from your unlawful use of the Website, your material violation of these Terms, your infringement or misappropriation of another person’s rights through your Website use, or malicious or unauthorized conduct directed at the Website or its systems.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except to the extent applicable law requires otherwise.
Before filing a legal action arising from these Terms or ordinary Website use, the parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days after written notice of the dispute. This requirement does not prevent a party from seeking temporary or injunctive relief where reasonably necessary or from filing when delay would reasonably risk expiration of an applicable limitations period.
Subject to rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be limited by these Terms, exclusive jurisdiction and venue for an action arising from these Terms or ordinary Website use will lie in the state courts located in Champaign County, Illinois or, where federal subject-matter jurisdiction exists, the United States District Court for the Central District of Illinois.
A dispute governed by a Digital Product purchase agreement or attorney-client engagement agreement is subject to the dispute provisions of that more specific agreement to the extent they differ from this Section.
We may revise these Terms from time to time. Revised Terms become effective when posted unless a later effective date is stated. The version in effect when you use the Website governs that use.
A revision to these Website Terms does not retroactively change the Digital Product Terms governing a completed purchase or the terms of an attorney-client engagement agreement.
If any provision of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. A failure by KPL to enforce a provision on one occasion does not waive that provision or KPL’s right to enforce it later.
You may not assign rights or obligations under these Terms without KPL’s written consent. KPL may assign these Terms in connection with a reorganization, merger, sale, or transfer of the Website or substantially all assets associated with it, subject to applicable professional obligations.
These Terms constitute the agreement between you and KPL concerning ordinary access to and use of the Website. They do not replace the Privacy Policy, Digital Product Terms and License, or any attorney-client engagement agreement, each of which governs its own subject matter as described above.
