3.  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

The Site, including the software and code that comprises and operates the Site and all of the content of the Site, for example, all of the text, papers, documents, curriculum, stories, books, images, illustrations, graphics, audio clips, and video clips published on the Site (collectively, the “Content”), are protected under trademark, service mark, trade dress, copyright, patent, trade secret and other intellectual property laws.

4.  COMPASSION TRADEMARKS

The trademarks and service marks used or displayed on the Site (“Trademarks”) are registered and unregistered trademarks of Compassion, one of its subsidiaries, or third parties.  Nothing on the Site may be construed as granting — by implication, estoppel, or otherwise — any license or right to use any Trademarks displayed on the Site without the prior express written permission of Compassion or the trademark owner, as applicable. In particular, you may not use any trademark displayed on the Site as a “hot” link without the prior written approval of the trademark owner.

You recognize that the Trademarks possess a unique character, which makes it difficult to assess the monetary damages Compassion would sustain in the event of unauthorized use.  You acknowledge that such unauthorized use would cause Compassion irreparable injury.  In the event of any actual or threatened unauthorized use or disclosure of the Trademarks, Compassion will be entitled to obtain injunctive and all other appropriate relief from a court of competent authority, without being required to: (i) show any actual damage or irreparable harm, (ii) prove the inadequacy of its legal remedies, or (iii) post any bond or other security.
