We reserve the right to refuse access to the website to any person at any time.
Availability
Portions of the website available to different users may vary. No user (other than certain JDM employees acting in their capacity as such) has access to all portions of the website. You agree not to use or access, or attempt to use or access, any portion of the website for which you are not intentionally given access to by us. Additionally, you will not use or access, or attempt to use or access, any User Account, unless the company that established such User Account authorizes such use or access.
Access to User Accounts
If you are a registered user, you agree to protect your username and password by, among other things, keeping your username and password confidential. You may share your username and password with other employees of the company for which your User Account was created, provided that such company authorizes their use and access of the User Account.

You agree to (a) immediately notify JDM of any unauthorized use of your password or any other breach of security, (b) immediately notify JDM if any employee who received the username and/or password for the User Account is no longer an employee of the company for which the User Account was created, or is no longer permitted to access the User Account, and (c) ensure that you exit from your User Account at the end of each session.
Termination of User Accounts by Us
JDM may, in its sole discretion, terminate a User Account, at any time, with or without notice and for any reason (or no reason). Any termination by us shall be effective immediately. You agree that, if your User Account is terminated, you will not thereafter enter, or attempt to enter, the website, directly or indirectly.
Effect of Termination of User Accounts
Upon termination or cancellation of a User Account, (a) the user loses access to certain features of the website made available through such User Account, and (b) JDM may, in its sole discretion, delete all information and content in the User Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, JDM reserves the right to retain and use such information and content for its business purposes and as necessary to comply with its legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce the Terms of Use & Privacy Policy.
