Effective as of: June 6, 2013

Welcome to DateHookup.dating, the service for adults to meet each other online, operated by Search Floor, Inc. (“DateHookup.dating”). By using the DateHookup.dating Website (the "Website") you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use (this "Agreement"), whether or not you register as a member ("Member"). If you wish to become a Member and communicate with other Members and make use of the DateHookup.dating service (the "Service"), read these Terms of Use and indicate your acceptance of them by following the instructions in the Registration process.

This Agreement sets out the legally binding terms of your use of the Website and your membership in the Service and may be modified by DateHookup.dating from time to time, such modifications to be effective upon posting by DateHookup.dating on the Website with their effective date indicated at the top of this Agreement. Your continued use of the Service after any such changes to this Agreement constitutes your acceptance of the new Agreement. If you do not agree to the modified Agreement, you must terminate your use of the Service.

1. Eligibility and Other IAC Websites:

(a) You must be eighteen or over to register as a member of DateHookup.dating or use the Website. Membership in the Service is void where prohibited. By using the Website, you represent and warrant that you have the right, authority, and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to abide by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) The Website is owned by IAC and is part of the IAC family of online dating websites, which includes match.com, chemistry.com, okcupid.com, singlesnet.com and the People Media websites (ourtime.com, senior peoplemeet.com, blackpeoplemeet.com and the other websites listed at www.peoplemedia.com). As part of the Service, your profile may be registered on and/or appear in search results or other areas of other online dating websites owned by IAC. Any use of such information by another IAC website will be in compliance with such website’s privacy policy, which will be substantially similar to the DateHookup.dating Privacy Policy. Please see the DateHookup.dating Privacy Policy for more information.

2. Term: This Agreement will remain in full force and effect while you use the Website and/or are a Member. You may terminate your membership at any time, for any reason by following the instructions 'Account Options' page. DateHookup.dating may terminate your membership for any reason. Even after membership is terminated, this Agreement will remain in effect.

3. Member Screening: DateHookup.dating does NOT screen its member profiles for accuracy in any way (that would be basically impossible) nor does it conduct any kind of background checks on members . Members use this site at their own risk. You understand and agree that it is your responsibility to use common sense when interacting and meeting other Members from this Website. Use the same common sense you would use meeting people in the offline world. Background checks are not always accurate (someone could just submit fake personal information after all, plus not all criminal records are available online), so they should never be counted on to replace common sense and skepticism. ALWAYS meet someone new in a very public place, and let someone close to you know you are meeting someone.

Organizations, companies, and/or businesses may not become Members and should not use the Service or the Website for any purpose.
