The Service is created, operated, and controlled by EZ-AD in the State of California, United States of America. The laws of the State of California will govern this Agreement without giving effect to any principles or conflicts of laws. Some of the Service and Content are only intended for persons in those states and jurisdictions where such products and services may legally be offered.

The Service and Content may include inaccuracies or typographical errors.

You acknowledge and agree that EZ-AD is not responsible for any User Generated Content posted by users of the Service.

Prior to making any decisions based on information posted on the Service, you are advised to verify the information. EZ-AD shall not have any liability arising from your acts or decisions based upon the information provided on the Service. When it comes to buying products or services when using the internet, it is recommended that you always conduct your own investigations. This includes buying any products or services offered or sold as part of, or through, the Service. Unless we have stated otherwise, you should always assume that when products or services are made reference to as part of the Service, they are made because there exists a material connection between EZ-AD and the providers of the products and services displayed. It should be noted that this is not always the case. With regard to insurance, in general, do not cancel any existing policies or accounts until you receive written confirmation that a new policy or account is in effect.
