However, if the Services were purchased by another party for you to use (e.g. aCard issued for you by your employer), the party paying for such Service has the right to control access to and get reports on your use of such paid Service; however, they do not have rights to your personal account.

The sharing of your aCards is solely your responsibility. Acquainted cannot take any responsibility regarding your aCards sharing.

Information contained in your aCards and any updates you make will be instantly available to all your Connected Contacts. Your Offline Contacts do not have access to your updates.

We are not obligated to publish any information or content on our Service and can remove it in our sole discretion, with or without notice.

Acquainted is not a directory, therefore your aCards will not be public or searcheable within the Service by anybody other than your Connected and Offline Contacts.

They cannot see any contact detail of yours until you connect (which only happens with the consent of both parties). You can make yourself INVISIBLE in the radar, which will also prohibit you from seeing other Users in the Radar.
