3. Institutional Subscriptions.

An “Institutional Subscription” is an account intended for public access in a public place such as a Christian Science Reading Room.

If you are using or opening an account on the Site or the Service on behalf of a qualifying company, entity, or organization (a "Subscribing Organization"), then you represent and warrant that you are an authorized representative of that Subscribing Organization with the authority to bind such organization to these Terms, and you agree to be bound by these Terms on behalf of such Subscribing Organization.
