You shall ensure that all information associated with each User account remains complete and accurate and that all Users keep their credential details confidential and not share them with third parties. You will promptly notify Fugue if there is any unauthorized disclosure or misuse of any User credentials, or any unauthorized access to or use of the Service. You are solely responsible for all activities that occur using the User credentials.

1.5    Availability.  Fugue does not guarantee that access to or use of the Service will be continuous, uninterrupted or error free.
