In creating a User account and profile, we ask that you provide complete and accurate information about yourself, though you may opt instead to provide information that does not make you personally identifiable to the public. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not impersonate someone else (e.g., adopt the identity of a celebrity or your next-door neighbor), provide an email address other than your own, or create multiple User accounts and profiles.
If you have created a User account with MportalHub, you are responsible for the security of your account and password.
