The Winlink 2000 Common Message Servers and the participating Winlink 2000 stations make available publicly accessible ("Public Domain") information and data from the National Weather Service, the U.S. Government and other third-party sources. You must use such information with care as it may be inaccurate or out-of-date. Winlink 2000 developers, administrators and system operators expressly disclaim responsibility for the content stored or transported by the Winlink 2000 system ("the system").

The information stored and transported by the system may be used freely by the public as long as the user complies with the rules governing Amateur Radio. Before using information obtained from or through the system, special attention should be given to the date and time of the data being displayed. Any information passing through the system is not guaranteed to be accurate or current. The developers, administrators and system operators of the system will apply their best efforts to inspect and remove content prohibited by rules governing Amateur Radio. Should a message or data appear to be in violation of the these rules, the system operators have the right to hold or destroy the non-complying data, content or message.

The system and its participating stations strive to be available for service 24 hours a day, seven days a week. However, because of the voluntary nature of those providing this service, timely delivery of data or messages from the system may not always be available, and, therefore, is not guaranteed.

Special care is taken by the developers and administrators to protect the system and its users from SPAM, malware and viruses, but freedom from these is not guaranteed. Winlink 2000 administrators use special software and services expressly applied for this purpose. The system provides each user with selectable options for SPAM control. Each user of the system is ultimately responsible to properly use these tools.

The Winlink 2000 user assumes the entire risk related to their use of information or data received or sent over the Winlink 2000 system. This information or data is provided "as is", and the Winlink 2000 developers, administrators, and system operators disclaim any and all warranties, whether express or implied, including (without limitation) any implied warranties of fitness for a particular purpose. In no event will the Winlink 2000 system developers, administrators or operators be liable to users or to any third-party for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special or exemplary damages resulting from any use or misuse of the system or from data or information acquired from it.

By using the system, the user agrees with, understands, and holds the developers, administrators, and system operators of the system harmless per the conditions set forth herein.
