CONTENT LINKED TO ANY META TALENT AGENCY SITE
Please exercise discretion while browsing the Internet using any META Talent Agency Site. You should be aware that when you are on a META Talent Agency Site, you could be directed to other sites that are beyond our control. There are links to other sites from META Talent Agency pages that take you outside of our service. For example, if you “click” on a banner advertisement or a search result, the “click” may take you off the META Talent Agency Site. This includes links from advertisers, sponsors, and content partners that may use our logo(s) as part of a co-branding agreement. These other sites may send their own cookies to users, collect data, solicit personal information, or contain information that you may find inappropriate or offensive. In addition, advertisers on META Talent Agency Sites may send cookies to users that we do not control. We reserve the right to disable links from third party sites to any META Talent Agency Site. We make no representations concerning the content of sites listed in any of our directories. Consequently, we cannot be held responsible for the accuracy, relevancy, copyright compliance, legality or decency of material contained in sites listed in our search results or otherwise linked to a META Talent Agency Site.
