“Content” means information, audio, radio, podcasts, text, files, images, video, sounds, musical works, works of authorship, materials, applications, software, product names, company names, trade names, logos, designs, and any other materials or content.

“Use" or "using" in these Terms means any time an individual (a "user"), directly or indirectly, with or without the aid of a machine or device, does or attempts to access, interact with, use, display, view, print or copy from the Website, transmit, receive or exchange data or communicate with the Website, or in any way utilizes, benefits, takes advantage of or interacts with any function, service or feature of the Website, for any purpose whatsoever.
