Upon submitting the Webmaster Application Form ("Application") you will be placed in a special priority sequence to be reviewed by Elite Answers Inc. (“Elite Answers”). Elite Answers carefully and meticulously evaluates each site to preserve the integrity and prestige of the Elite Answers database. Payment for Express Submission does not guarantee inclusion in the directory. As with all applicants, your site must be thoroughly reviewed. Express Submission does ensure that your application becomes a top priority for the Elite Answers reviewing agents. The fee for the Express Submission is absolutely non-refundable regardless of the outcome of your application. If admitted into Elite Answers you will be treated as any other Elite site in the directory, and will receive no special consideration. You will receive electronic correspondence from Elite Answers, with information as to whether you have been accepted or not, as soon as that information becomes available.
You may not apply again until you have received a report as to the status of your initial application. Submitting more than one application interrupts the reviewing process and may result in complete termination of your application. If you have been accepted into the database you will receive an e-mail indicating such. You will gain access to the Elite Answers Elite Site ‘members area’, named Webmaster Central, and your site will immediately be listed in the directory. If you have not been accepted into the database you must wait a minimum of 30 days before re-applying. During that time Elite Answers recommends that you modify your site (information, products, layout, policies, etc.) so that you can become Elite. Applying again without making any adjustments will return the same results. Elite Answers does not divulge specific information regarding a site’s acceptance/non-acceptance to any third party.
Elite Answers does not accept sites that are unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libellous, invasive of another's privacy, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable. Elite Answers does not accept any adult or pornographic sites. Sites that contain such items will not be considered for inclusion in the directory. Upon submitting your Application you are certifying that there is no content on your site that infringes any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or other proprietary rights of any party.
Upon submitting the Application you are granting Elite Answers full use of your website information, without any need for notification. You understand that certain information will be made publicly accessible and are granting Elite Answers world-wide, royalty-free, exclusive rights to use said forth information. You are granting Elite Answers the perpetual, irrevocable and fully sub-licensable license to use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, publicly perform and publicly display such content (in whole or in part) and to incorporate such content into other works in any format or medium now known or later developed. You also grant Elite Answers the right to contact you through the e-mail address you provide. As is congruent with the Elite Answers Privacy Policy, your contact information will not be sold to any third party. Any communication you receive will originate from Elite Answers.
Elite Answers reserves the right to cancel your application and acceptance (and forfeit all points), without reason or notice. Inclusion in the directory is a privilege, not a right. Elite Answers is constantly re-evaluating sites already admitted into the database, and should a site no longer qualify as “Elite” it will be removed. Upon submitting the Application you are agreeing to use the service in the manner in which it was designed. Any attempt to defraud or disrupt the normal flow of operations will result in immediate removal from the directory and possible punitive damages.
Elite Answers reserves the right to alter any and all information regarding your website. All changes and activities by our members are recorded. Those found abusing the system or acting in a manner determined to be unbecoming of an Elite site will be expunged from the database.
You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, or exploit for any commercial purposes, any portion of the service, use of the service, or access to the service.
Elite Answers reserves the right at any time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the service (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that Elite Answers shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the service.
