Kid User Rules

Kids, remember, keep your parents involved! We (that would be, YTV Canada, Inc.) would love it if you would participate in this site, but if you do, be aware that there are "official" rules (we call them the Terms of Use) that apply. You should sit down with your parents to make sure that you understand those official rules, and what you can and cannot do when you are on this site. To help you go through the official rules, we wrote up this summary of the things we want to make sure you understand:

Using the Site

If you use this site, that means that you understand these rules, and are agreeing to follow them. Things change, including these rules. The new and most recent version will always be posted here.

YTV has created this website for you to enjoy. You can play with and use the material on thebigrip.com, but you cannot take material from the site and sell, copy, upload, post or distribute it (for example, copying and pasting stuff from our site onto your own personal web site).

YTV sometimes provides links to other websites. Those sites are owned and run by other companies, and YTV cannot promise that they are safe. You should always use caution whenever accessing a website, including those to which we link.

Giving Things to Us

YTV likes to hear from you. We do not, however, accept or consider any creative ideas or suggestions unless we have specifically asked for them. Anything sent to us, by email, snail mail, fax, etc. - such as messages, files, artwork, comments, suggestions or other ideas - may be used by YTV in any way that we want - forever. That means that anything you submit to the website belongs to YTV. So please, do not give us anything unless we specifically ask for it!

Using Our Forums

YTV is proud to offer interactive features on our site, including message boards and chat rooms (for the sake of simplicity, we're going to refer to all of these as the "forums"). We think our forums are great, and will try to keep them up as long as we can. But, sometimes things cannot last forever, and we cannot promise you that a forum will always be active, or that information that you put on a forum will always be there.

Also, like with most things in life, you can use the forums only if you follow the rules (and if you are under 13, only if we received consent directly from your parents). The rules are:

1. You may not stop anyone else from using the forums.
2. You may not put up or say anything mean or obscene in a forum.
3. You may not steal stuff from others and put it on a forum.
4. You may not submit anything that could potentially cause the forum to be corrupted, like a virus.
5. You may not try to sell things on the forum.
6. You may not give anyone else your username or password.

Remember that information posted in forums is being posted by users just like you. The information may not be true, and although we try to screen out all violations, it may be in violation of these rules. If you see something that you think isn't right, send us an email to membership@thebigrip.com.

Sometimes someone might advertise a third party tournament or event on the Skittlization.com website (including within a posting on any of the message boards), YTV will not be responsible in any way for any harm or injury that may occur as a result of such tournament or event.

Breaking the Rules

If you break the rules, YTV may block you from the site. If there is any disagreement about what these Rules mean or how they apply to you, the laws of the Province of Ontario and Canada, as applicable will apply.
