If you decide to post any promotional materials in your Account, you are solely responsible for complying with all applicable laws and regulations. We reserve the right to remove any promotional materials or advertisements that, in our sole discretion, violate any CogNeed terms or policies.
CogNeed reserves the right to remove any Content in violation of this policy.
