2. Scope of Terms. Modifications. Translations.
2.1 Application: The Terms apply to all websites where these Terms are posted, displayed, or referenced ("Website/Websites"), whether the sites are sponsored, managed, or hosted by Intel or third parties but do not extend to any agreements entered into using electronic signature tools on the Websites. The terms of any Agreements executed through the use of electronic signature tools on the Websites shall prevail over these Terms in the event of any conflict. Any modifications to these Terms will not retroactively alter any contractual agreements unless explicitly agreed upon in writing to the contrary. The Terms otherwise apply to any resources and tools provided through the Websites, including but not limited to developer tools, software, download areas, research areas, community forums, chat rooms, blogs, sharing sites, and product information. Finally, the Terms apply to documents made available on the Websites such as white papers, press releases, datasheets, and specification documents but do not extend to any separate agreements you may enter through the Website’s electronic signature tool. Hereafter, the foregoing documents will be referred to as the "Materials."
2.2 Supplementary Terms for Materials and Sub-Sites: Certain Materials or sub-sites accessible via the Websites may have their own supplementary terms and conditions specific to them. By accessing or using those Materials or sub-sites, you accept and agree to be bound by the applicable supplementary terms and conditions. These Terms will apply and remain in effect with respect to those Materials and sub-sites, provided that, to the extent these Terms conflict with or are superseded by any such supplementary terms and conditions, the supplementary terms and conditions will govern and control.
2.3 Changes and Updates to Terms: Intel may, but is not required to, substitute, add to, change, or remove any part of the Terms at any time without notice to you (“Modified Terms”). Modified Terms will be effective when posted by Intel, and your use of the Websites or the Materials after the posting of the Modified Terms will be deemed your acceptance of and agreement to be bound by the Modified Terms. The date on which the Modified Terms are posted will be stated at the beginning of the Modified Terms. If you do not agree to the Modified Terms, you must stop using the Websites and Materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Modified Terms will not impact the terms of any Agreement executed through an electronic signature tool on the Websites without prior written consent of the parties thereto.
2.4 Translations of Terms: Where Intel has provided you with a translation of the English language version of these Terms, you agree that the translation is provided for your convenience only and that the English-language versions of these Terms will govern your relationship with Intel. If there is any contradiction between the English-language version of these Terms and the translation, the English-language version will govern and control.
2.5 Modification of Websites and Materials: Intel may, but is not required to, substitute, add to, change, remove, disable, or suspend the Websites, the Materials, or any portion thereof, temporarily or permanently, at any time without notice to you.
