User Representations

The Sites are a forum where civility should prevail. While the Company may monitor third-party postings we may or may not review them before they are displayed. A third-party post is the view and responsibility of the poster, not the Company. We cannot guarantee the appropriateness, accuracy or usefulness of a third-party posting or of any third-party link. It is unlawful to post unauthorized or copyrighted materials.  

The Company is an SEC-registered investment adviser and we therefore cannot publish or otherwise disseminate testimonials about our products or services. Please refrain from such postings.

You should use reasonable caution in evaluating information on or available through the Sites. We reserve the right to remove any post at any time for any reason where the Sites’ technology permits. If we do not remove a post that does not mean the Company endorses its content or view. We also reserve the right to alter, edit or adapt a third-party post. All posts to the Sites become the unrestricted property of the Company.  

It is a violation of these Terms to pretend to be somebody else by using a false name or otherwise impersonating someone else. You should not submit complaints through the Sites.
