This includes the right to end the service, close or alter your associated account at any time and, in some cases, request and receive machine and service use information related to your associated account. If a third party, such as an ISP, employer or school, gave you your account, the third party has rights to your account. The third party may manage your account, reset your password, or suspend or terminate your account; view your account’s usage and profile data, including how and when your account is used; and read or store the content in your account, including electronic communications, contact lists and other information.

Please refer to the terms of use for each site that you visit. We may cancel or suspend your access to our authentication network for inactivity, which we define as failing to sign in to our authentication network for an extended period, as determined by us, or if you violate this contract.

The section titles in the contract do not limit the other terms of this contract.
16. Assignment
