Further, ACS does not create nor control any opinions or statements expressed by others within its social media channels, including those that Follow, Like, re-Tweet, re-post, or otherwise share ACS content therein, nor does any similar action undertaken by ACS concerning another user’s content constitute an endorsement of that user.

ACS has the right (but not the obligation) to refuse, move, edit, or delete any Content that is available on via the Service or on the Website at their sole discretion, for any or no reason. User acknowledges and agrees that ACS may take any action we deem necessary or appropriate if we believe Content violates the Terms of Use, including, but not limited to, infringing any intellectual property right, threatening the personal safety of users to the Website or the public, or if it potentially creates liability for the company. ACS may take appropriate legal action for any illegal or unauthorized use of the Website or the Service. ACS has the right to fully cooperate with law enforcement authorities or court order directing or requesting us to disclose your identity or information or preserve Content posted by you in relation to relevant legal action.
