any other User to access, view, store or download the Content for that User's
personal use.

foreign nationals. User agrees to abide by these laws and their implementing
regulations, and further agrees not to transfer, by electronic transmission
or otherwise, any Content derived from the Peavey Site to either a foreign

as questions, comments, suggestions or the like regarding any Content, such
information shall be deemed to be non-confidential and Peavey shall have no
obligation of any kind with respect to such information and shall be free
to use, reproduce, disclose and distribute the information to others without
limitation. Further, Peavey shall be free to use any ideas, concepts know-how
