We are not obligated to publish a Classified Ad. Our publication of a Classified Ad does not constitute an agreement for continued publication. We will accept only standard abbreviations and proper punctuation in Classified Ads. We accept no liability for error or omission with respect to a Classified Ad or your use of Classified Ads. If we, at our option, select to accept liability for an error, in no event shall our liability for your use of our classified advertising services exceed the amount you paid for the use of the services.

We do not knowingly accept advertising that discriminates or intends to discriminate based on race, color, religion, gender, national origin, handicap or familial status. We do not knowingly accept advertisements regarding employment that are not ads for bona fide job opportunities.
