WMS also may supplement the Terms of Service with additional posted guidelines or rules. These Terms of Service may be amended from time to time without any notice to yourself. You can view the most current version of the Terms of Service at any time by visiting: webstats4U.com/terms. Please review these Terms of Service from time to time so you will be apprised of any changes.

WMS may also offer other services from time to time that may be governed by the terms of service of the respective service partners.
