Terms & Conditions
Please note that our Sites and Mobile Content are under constant development. New services are added frequently and this agreement may therefore be modified and updated on an ongoing basis. It is important to check back to this page regularly.
General Rules
Cubteq Portfolio Limited hereafter reffered to as “Cubteq” owns and operates cubteq.com, as well as makes the same or similar content available to mobile users, including via apps available to users of Apple’s iPhone and iPad, and Google’s Android phones and other mobile system (collectively, the “Sites” or “Sites and Mobile Content”). (App purchases are typically also subject to the terms and conditions of the entity that operates the app store, which are accessible on that entity’s website.)
Your use of the Sites and Mobile Content and associated products and services, regardless of media, is subject to the terms, conditions, and disclaimers set forth below; to our Online Privacy Policy; and to all applicable laws and regulations. In addition, Cubteq reserves the right to terminate access to the Sites and Mobile Content for any reason, and to take any other actions that Cubteq, in its sole discretion, believes to be in the interest of the company and some or all of its users and customers. Cubteq reserves the right to modify these disclaimers, terms, and conditions of access, without advance notice.
This is a binding contract between Cubteq and you. By accessing our Sites and/or Mobile Content, you hereby accept this agreement. As a material condition of such use, you warrant that you are over the age of Fifteen and that you have provided accurate and complete information in any communication with Cubteq.
Access
Access to the Sites and to some Mobile Content is provided free of charge and does not create a professional services relationship or any other relationship with The AtlantCubteq.
The Sites and Mobile Content are provided solely for your personal, non-commercial use. You may not develop or derive for commercial sale any data in machine-readable or other form that incorporates or uses any substantial part of the Sites nor transfer to or store any data residing or exchanged over the Sites in any electronic network for use by more than one user unless you obtain prior written permission from Cubteq. Specifically, unless explicitly authorized in these Terms and Conditions or by the owner of the materials, you may not modify, copy, reproduce, republish, upload, post, transmit, translate, sell, create derivative works, exploit, or distribute in any manner or medium any material from the Sites. Please see our FAQ.
For any images, text, data or other information (referred to here as “Content”) you submit to Cubteq (including profile information, blog posts, comment areas, and any e-mail) you affirm, represent and warrant that you own the right to utilize, to license and to sublicense the Content and you grant to Cubtew, and anyone authorized by Cubteq, a non-exclusive, worldwide, paid-up, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual license, including right of sublicense, to use, copy, assign, display, distribute, perform, reproduce in whole or in part, and modify the Content in any medium or any manner, in whole or part (whether now known or hereafter developed), without any restrictions to you, for the sole intended purpose of the Sites and/or services provided. You also grant to each user of the Sites a non-exclusive license to access the Content through the Sites and to use, reproduce, distribute, display and perform such Content as permitted through the functionality of the Sites and under this Agreement.
For any Content you post that you do not own, you guarantee to us that you have the legal right to post such Content and that it will not violate any law or the rights of any person or entity. IN OTHER WORDS, AND AMONG OTHER THINGS, YOU WILL NOT POST CONTENT ON THE SITES YOU DO NOT OWN WITHOUT PERMISSION OF THE OWNER OF THE CONTENT, INCLUDING WRITTEN, PHOTOGRAPHIC, MUSIC AND VIDEO CONTENT.
Intellectual Property
All copyrights and trademarks not the property of Cubteq that are used or referred to in the Sites and Cubteq products are the property of their respective owners. Nothing contained in the site or other products shall be construed as granting any license or other rights to any copyright, trademark, patent or other property of Cubteq or any third party, whether by implication, laches, estoppel or explicit grant. Because the content is proprietary, any unauthorized use of materials on the site or other products may violate the law. If you are a copyright owner and believe infringing material is present on our Sites, please refer to the procedures outlined below in the section titled “Cubteq DMCA Copyright Infringement Claim Policy.”
Cubteq products, including third party and licensed materials on the site, may not be modified, reproduced, republished, retransmitted, or displayed except for personal use. Any use for a commercial or public purpose requires specific written permission from Cubteq.

Content and Non-Endorsement
Opinions and other statements expressed by users and third parties are theirs alone, not opinions of Cubteq. Content created by third parties is the sole responsibility of the third parties and its accuracy and completeness are not endorsed or guaranteed. The Sites and third parties may provide links to web pages, web sites, and various resources or locations on the web. Cubteq has no control over the information you access via such links, does not endorse that information, and shall not be responsible for it or for the consequences of your use of that information.
Comment Areas
The Comment Areas are designed to permit you to share your ideas and opinions. Information on the Comment Areas is provided by our staff and other contributors, some of whom use anonymous screen names and are people not otherwise connected with us. You acknowledge that a large volume of information is available in our Comment Areas and that people participating in such Comment Areas occasionally post messages or make statements, whether intentionally or unintentionally, that are inaccurate, misleading or deceptive. Cubteq neither endorses nor is responsible for such messages or statements, or for any opinion, advice, information or other utterance made or displayed on the Sites or Comment Areas by third parties. The opinions expressed in the Comment Areas reflect solely the opinion(s) of the participants and may not reflect the opinion(s) of Cubteq. Cubteq is not responsible for any errors or omissions in postings in the Comment Areas, for hyperlinks embedded in messages or for any results obtained from the use of such information. Under no circumstances will Cubteq or its affiliates, be liable for any loss or damage caused by your reliance on such information obtained through the Sites or the Comment Areas.
Cubteq does not initiate, edit, modify, select, or designate specific recipients for any messages or other data entered into the Forum and Comment Areas or any other part of the Sites, except that (i) Cubteq may consolidate and edit for clarity any Content posted to comment areas, (ii) Cubteq may inform registered users or third parties of particular content, ask for their response, or ask them to host discussions, and (iii) Cubteq reserves the right to monitor the Sites and to remove any information that Cubteq, in its sole discretion, considers to be inappropriate or unlawful.
You acknowledge and agree that Cubteq has the right (but not the obligation) to monitor the Comment Areas and the materials you transmit or post; to alter or remove any such materials (including, without limitation, any posting to a Forum or Comment Area); to disclose such materials and the circumstances surrounding their transmission to any third party in order to operate the Sites properly; to protect ourselves, our visitors, and the public; and to comply with legal obligations or reasonable governmental requests.
You acknowledge and agree that unless otherwise stated, all materials and information you provided will be deemed to be provided to us on a non-confidential and non-proprietary basis.

Cubteq also reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to forward the information you submit to its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, vendors and service providers for legitimate business purposes.

Cubteq Sites DMCA Copyright Infringement Claim Policy
Cubteq respects the intellectual property of others, and requires that our users do the same. You may not upload, embed, post, email, transmit or otherwise make available any material that infringes any copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights of any person or entity. Cubteq has the right to prohibit infringers from using our Sites.
If you believe your work has been copied and posted on or through the Sites in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please send Cubteq’s Copyright Agent a notification of claimed infringement with all of the following information:
(a) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;
(b) identification of the claimed infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material on the Sites (providing the URL(s) of the claimed infringing material satisfies this requirement);
(c) information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address;
(d) a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
(e) a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notification is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf; and
(f) your physical or electronic signature.
Cubteq’s Copyright Agent for notification of claimed infringement can be reached as follows: Copyright Agent, Cubteq Portfolio Limited. Legal@cubteq.com
Upon receipt of a Notification of Copyright Infringement from a copyright owner that contains the required information described in (a) through (f) above, Cubteq will notify the user, if known, of the alleged infringement and remove or disable access to the material that is alleged to be infringing if hosted on Cubteq’s Site or Mobile Content. No personal user information is shared with the copyright owner unless required by law.
If Cubteq receives more than one Notice of Copyright Infringement concerning a user, the user may be deemed a “repeat copyright infringer.” Cubteq reserves the right to terminate the accounts of “repeat copyright infringers.”
Procedure to File a DMCA Counter-Claim
If you have received a notice of copyright infringement and you believe that a copyright holder has accused you in error, you may file a DMCA Counter-Claim with Cubteq’s designated agent.
To be effective, a Counter-Claim must be a written communication provided to Cubteq’s designated agent and must include the following information:
(a) A physical or electronic signature of the user;
(b) Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
(c) A statement under penalty of perjury that the user has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;
(d) The user’s name, address and telephone number, and a statement that the subscriber consents to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if the user’s address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found, and that the user will accept service of process from the person who provided notification or an agent of such person;
Upon receipt of a DMCA Counter-Claim, Cubteq will provide the complaining party with a copy of the DMCA Counter-Claim. When Cubteq receives a Counter-Claim that meets the requirements of the DMCA, Cubteq will process the Counter-Claim in accordance with the requirements of the DMCA.
