Introduction
Legally Ours ("we," "us," or "our") requests that users ("you" or "your") respect our organization’s policies in order to continue providing you with the highest level of service possible. This policy summarizes what is covered under our Terms of Service and provides you with a detailed explanation of what they mean for you.
These Terms apply to all Internet sites and mobile applications operated by or on behalf of Legally Ours and includes Legally Ours entities worldwide. It also applies to content Legally Ours may otherwise distribute: (i) through our products and services; (ii) when you interact with us by means other than through Legally Ours websites or applications (e.g. in person, by telephone, or training); and (iii) through our customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, and other business partners (“Business Partners”).
However, different Legally Ours websites, apps, products, and services have different purposes and features. If additional or different Terms of Service agreements are required for a specific Legally Ours Internet Site, App, product, or service, then we provide those disclosures separately on, or with, the relevant Internet Site, App, product, or service. Each such specific copyright disclosure, policy, or statement (“Specific Terms of Service Statement”) supplements and amends this Policy.

These Terms of Service constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity, and Legally Ours, concerning your access to and use of the www.legallyours.org website as well as all Internet sites, mobile applications, products, and services operated by or on behalf of Legally Ours and includes Legally Ours entities worldwide (“Legally Ours Sites”).

Legally Ours ("we," "us," or "our") requests that users ("you" or "your") respect our organization’s policies in order to continue providing you with the highest level of service possible. This policy summarizes what is covered under our Terms of Service and provides you with a detailed explanation of what they mean for you.
These Terms apply to all Internet sites and mobile applications operated by or on behalf of Legally Ours and includes Legally Ours entities worldwide. It also applies to content Legally Ours may otherwise distribute: (i) through our products and services; (ii) when you interact with us by means other than through Legally Ours websites or applications (e.g. in person, by telephone, or training); and (iii) through our customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, and other business partners (“Business Partners”).
However, different Legally Ours websites, apps, products, and services have different purposes and features. If additional or different Terms of Service agreements are required for a specific Legally Ours Internet Site, App, product, or service, then we provide those disclosures separately on, or with, the relevant Internet Site, App, product, or service. Each such specific copyright disclosure, policy, or statement (“Specific Terms of Service Statement”) supplements and amends this Policy.
