CBS Interactive Software Copyright Notice
As a regular part of our business, our Download Sites display advertisements and product listings from a wide variety of companies. CBS Interactive is not in a position to arbitrate disputes between the owners of intellectual property rights and companies who advertise or list their products on our sites.
For this reason, we encourage copyright owners who believe their rights are being infringed by a company that advertises or lists its products on our site to resolve their disputes directly with that company. We encourage you to seek the advice of legal counsel if you are not sure whether your rights are being infringed or whether you are infringing the rights of someone else.
As a courtesy to owners of copyrighted works, CBS Interactive is willing to perform a limited investigation of reasonable complaints. However, we provide no guarantee that we will remove the allegedly infringing materials from our site.
