10. Copyright and Trademark Infringement Policy and Notification Procedure
The Company does not own Content transmitted by others through the Service.

Since the Company is not in a position to determine who has the prevailing claim to use any particular Content or Name posted to the Website, its policy on such matters is that they be resolved directly by the parties alleging misuse of their Content and/or Name (the “Complainants“) and the Providers. We recommend that Complainants immediately notify Providers about allegations of infringement.
For matters of suspected copyright infringement please see our Copyright Policy, available at https://www.mitzvites.com/copyright-policy/.

You are recommended to review the information provided by third parties (such as, but not limited to, the terms of service of the relevant website) before accessing such websites. We do not review, approve, monitor, endorse, warrant, or make any representations with respect to such websites or the products and services offered thereby. In no event will we be responsible for the information contained in such websites, their practices or for your use of or inability to use such websites, or transmissions received from such Websites.
