BabyBoomerExecs Inc.
Terms and Conditions for Use
This page states the Terms of Use ("Terms") under which You (“Executive”) may use www.babyboomerexecs.com ("BBE.com"), an on-line exchange service to allow member companies, government agencies, and higher education (collectively, the “Customer”) to search a database of highly skilled, executive level resumes for placement in consulting engagements, temporary positions, executive mentoring, and training engagements. BBE.com also allows Executives to create abstracts and resumes (”Resumes”), which may include personal information, and to make these Resumes, or aspects thereof, available to Customers, which shall be considered public.
Please read these Terms carefully. If the Executive does not accept the Terms stated here, do not use BBE.com and its services. By using BBE.com, Executive agrees to be bound by these Terms, including the BBE Privacy Statement.
BabyBoomerExecs, Inc. ("BBE") may revise these Terms at any time by posting an updated version to this Web page. Executive should visit this page periodically to review the most current Terms because they are binding on Executive.
1. Eligibility.
BBE reserves the right to select or deny an Executive for entry into the BBE.com database based upon the characteristic profile (“Profile”) of the Executive. While the BBE.com site is marketed as a site containing executives of the Baby Boomer era (those born between 1946 and 1965), it is not restricted to individuals in that age category. Executive must be 18 years of age or older, or the age of majority as that is defined in your jurisdiction, whichever is older, to visit or use BBE.com in any manner. By visiting BBE.com or accepting these Terms, Executive represents and warrants to BBE that they have reached the age of majority in their jurisdiction, and that they have the right, authority and capacity to agree to and abide by these Terms. Executive also represents and warrants to BBE that they will use BBE.com in a manner consistent with any and all applicable laws and regulations.
BBE seeks individuals with a Profile that includes experience in an executive, administrator, commissioner, director, professor, or similarly high-level of achievement capacity, generally reached through significant years of experience in an industry, government agency, or discipline.

4. User Content and Submissions.
Executive is solely responsible for the resume information that you submit to BBE.com. Executive agrees that in submitting Resume Content or otherwise using any BBE.com Site that you will not impersonate any person, or submit any materials to BBE that are false, inaccurate, misleading, unlawful, or are otherwise in violation of your obligations under these Terms.
By submitting resume Content to BBE.com, Executive automatically grants to BBE and its affiliates an irrevocable, royalty-free, perpetual, fully paid non-exclusive right (including moral rights) and worldwide license to use, copy, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, communicate to the public, perform, display, and distribute such Resume Content (in whole or in part) and to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works (in any form, media or technology now known or later developed, for the full term of any rights that may exist in such content) such Resume Content, and to grant and authorize sublicenses thereof (through multiple tiers).
Executive also represents and warrants that Executive has the right to grant or that the holder of any rights, including moral rights in such content, has completely and effectively waived all such rights and validly and irrevocably granted to Executive the right to grant, the license stated above. If Executive’s resume is accepted and posted in the Resume database of BBE.com, Executive also permits any Customer to access, display, view, store and reproduce such Resume Content for personal use.
BBE acts as a passive conduit for the online distribution and publication of Executive Content. BBE may review and remove any Executive resume that, in its sole judgment, violates these Terms, violates applicable laws, rules or regulations, is abusive, disruptive, offensive or illegal, or violates the rights of, or harms or threatens the safety of, Customers of BBE.com. BBE reserves the right to expel Executives and prevent their further access to the BBE.com Sites for violating the Terms or applicable laws, rules or regulations. BBE may take any action with respect to Resume Content that it deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion if it believes that such resume Content could create liability for BBE, damage BBE’s brand or public image, or cause BBE to lose (in whole or in part) the services of its ISPs or other suppliers.
BBE does not represent or guarantee the truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of any Content or any other communications Customers or endorse any opinions expressed by Customers. Executive acknowledges that any reliance on material provided by customers will be at your own risk.
Any Resume that Executive submits must describe Executive, an individual person. Examples of inappropriate and prohibited Resumes include, but are not limited to, resumes that purport to represent an animal, place, inanimate object, fictional character, or real individual that is not the Executive.
5. BBE's Liability.
BBE.com acts as a venue for employers to search Executive abstracts and resumes and does not screen or censor Customers. BBE is not involved in the actual delivery of work product between Customer and Executive. As a result, BBE has no control over Customer, the quality, safety or legality of the opportunities and BBE makes no representations about any opportunities available from Customer. BBE may take any action with respect to Customer that it deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion if it believes that such Customer could create liability for BBE, damage BBE’s brand or public image, or cause BBE to lose (in whole or in part) the services of its ISPs or other suppliers.
In addition, note that there are risks, including but not limited to the risk of physical harm, of dealing with strangers, foreign nationals, underage persons or people acting under false pretenses. Executive assumes all risks associated with dealing with Customer with whom Executive comes in contact through BBE.com.
Because Customer authentication on the Internet is difficult, BBE cannot and does not confirm that each Customer is who they claim to be. Because BBE does not and cannot be involved in Customer-to-Customer dealings or control the behavior of participants on the BBE Site, in the event that Executive has a dispute with one or more Customers, Executive releases BBE (and our agents and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential and direct and indirect and punitive and/or exemplary) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.
If Executive is a California resident, Executive waives California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor."
