Unsuitability includes, without limitation, the fact that Your Site contains material that is violent, threatening, harmful, obscene, pornographic, unlawful, discriminatory, defamatory, infringing, harassing, offensive or otherwise objectionable or inappropriate.

If, after acceptance, WTP determines that Your Site has become unsuitable, WTP may terminate this Agreement at any time. 3. Establishing Links from Your Site to Our Site Upon notification that Your Site has been accepted into the Program, you may begin establishing links from Your Site to Our Site as described in this paragraph.
