to your account or use of your password. You may not use anyone else's account
at any time, without the permission of the account holder.
The security of your personally
identifying information is important to us. While there is no such thing as
"perfect security" on the Internet, we will take reasonable steps to
help ensure the safety of your personally identifying information. However, you
understand and agree that such steps do not guarantee that use of the App is
invulnerable to all security breaches, and that NICKEL MEDIA makes no warranty,
guarantee, or representation that use of any of our App is protected from
