Last updated, 20 May 2005.

Set forth below are the terms and conditions (these "Terms and Conditions") governing the Zip.com web site, wap site, media client and services, which may expand or change from time to time (the "Site"). As used herein, the term "Zip.com" refers to Zip.com, the sole owner and wireless carrier of the Site; the term "you" or "your" refers to an individual, representing yourself or, if applicable, acting as legal representative for a group, business entity or corporation.

CAREFULLY READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. BY AVAILING YOURSELF OF THE SITE OR RELATED SERVICES, YOU ARE CONSENTING TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS AS SUCH TERMS MAY BE MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME AS DESCRIBED BELOW.

Services: Zip.com currently provides users with access to various mobile and online services, including various types of mobile media. You understand and agree that the Service may include advertisements or communications from our sponsors (think the Privacy Policy covers this). You also understand and agree that the service may include certain communications from Zip.com, such as service announcements, administrative messages and information about upcoming services. If you don't want to receive such information, you can opt-out from receiving such material by so indicating in your user profile in your Private Account page. All new features that augment or enhance the current Service, including the release of new Zip.com products, shall be subject to the Terms and Conditions. You understand and agree that the Service is provided "AS-IS" and that Zip.com assumes no responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store any user communications or personalization settings.

We do this both through our Site and by linking to web and WAP sites of companies with which we work as well as by linking to other sites we think may be useful to you. Such sites may have their own terms of use or applicable policies. Zip.com has also contracted with certain third-party suppliers to enable Zip.com to provide our Site to you.

Zip.com reserves the right at any time, and from time to time, to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that Zip.com shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.

You are responsible for the following:
1. Enabling internet service (GPRS, EDGE, 1xRTT or EV-DO) on your wireless account before you place any order. You may also incur standard WAP or internet charges from your wireless carrier. In addition, you must provide and are responsible for all equipment necessary to access the Service.

2. Knowing how your handset works. Please read the instructions provided with your handset with regard to SAVING downloaded content, as well as SETTING such content. No refunds will be given if you have not followed such instructions.

3. Selecting your network and handset make and model number when Zip.com solicits this information from you. No refund will be given if such selection is incorrect. –

4. Getting permission to purchase items from the person paying the bill (e.g., credit card or wireless carrier account).

5. If you are under 18 years of age, getting permission from a responsible adult before you use the Service.

6. Making sure you enter the correct code when ordering content.

The service is currently not available to customers whose carrier and handset is not listed on the Zip.com web site.

Any computer software downloadable or otherwise available on the Site is provided subject to the terms of the applicable license agreement.

Zip.com does not investigate, monitor or check for accuracy such third-party sites and Zip.com does not intend any such links to third-party sites to imply Zip.com's sponsorship or endorsement thereof. Your use of such sites is at your own risk.

"Framing" the Site: Framing of the Site is permitted only by express agreement with Zip.com, and Zip.com may require specific measures to be taken to avoid user or consumer confusion. Such measures may include, but are not limited to: clearly attributing the displayed Material to the Site or providing each user or consumer with the opportunity to visit the Site directly by, for example, including a tab labeled "Remove Frames." Zip.com reserves the right to withhold consent for any reason and any failure to monitor or control each instance of the framing of the Site shall not be considered a waiver of any of Zip.com 's rights. Any framing of the Site shall not imply the endorsement or sponsorship of Zip.com, Decade Mobile, or Zip.com Affiliates, as hereafter defined.

If you believe any Content and/or Name being used on the Site is in violation of your rights, you may notify Zip.com either by providing all requested information in the manner described in Nos. 1-9, below. Zip.com only shall use information provided by Complainants in accordance with its then-current Privacy Policy and as reasonably necessary to address any allegations contained therein, which may include disclosing some or all of the information to Content Providers. In most cases, soon after receiving written notice alleging infringement, Zip.com either will remove the allegedly infringing Content and/or Name from those pages identified or, at its election, remove those web pages.

1. Complainant's full name and if applicable, the name of the business entity represented.

2. Complainant's mailing address and if applicable, the mailing address of the business entity represented.

3. Complainant's daytime telephone number.

4. Complainant's email address, if any.

5. Description or identification of the Content and/or Name in which exclusive rights are claimed.

6. Basis for asserting ownership or exclusive rights in the Content and/or Name.

7. URL of all web pages on the Site where the Content and/or Name is known to be located.

8. Reprint the following sentence: "By submitting this notification of infringement to Zip.com, under penalty of perjury and to the best of my knowledge I attest that none of the information provided herein is false or misleading, I am the person identified in No. 1 above and I own, or I am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the Content and/or Name."

Please note, until receiving notification from Content Providers and Complainants that their disputes have been resolved, it is unlikely that Zip.com knowingly will permit any Content Provider, including the Complainant, to post such allegedly infringing Content and/or the Name on the Site. Of course, Zip.com will be happy to cooperate as is reasonable with respect to implementing any agreement among the parties to such a dispute.
