Welcome to the WAC Clearinghouse. This account agreement was developed strictly because of concerns that, without an account agreement, someone, at some time, will do something that is so thoughtless and/or malicious that we would need to end this service. The agreement follows. If you have an account on this site, you'll see it only once (immediately after you create your account) unless you want to see it again: you can view it through the Account tab on your personal page or through the About this Site page.
The WAC Clearinghouse is a Web site that provies access to a wide range of publications. The Clearinghouse is hosted and maintained by Colorado State University as a public service with the understanding that neither Colorado State University nor any of the other institutions who are partners in the development of the Clearinghouse make any warranties, either expressed or implied, concerning the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or suitability of the information on Clearinghouse pages.

We do not share information about any of our account holders (e.g., email addresses, names, institutional affiliations) with any individuals or organizations.

(Translation: we'll analyze how people use the site in an attempt to improve it.)
Administrators of this site will send periodic news and information to Clearinghouse account holders through email. Most often, this news and information will provide notice of new features.
This site may contain links to other Web sites and documents. We have no control over the content of other sites and can not ensure it will not be offensive or objectionable. We will, however, remove links to material that we feel is inappropriate as we become aware of them.
Please do not share your Clearinghouse password with anyone. Together with your login name, your password is your key to managing your Clearinghouse account information and any work you have saved in writing folders.
Colorado State University reserves the right to change this account agreement at any time. Any updates will be communicated to Clearinghouse account holders via email.
