The Site is controlled by Family Bible

appropriate state or federal court located in the state of West Virginia.
Our websites operate on computer systems
that are located in West Virginia and New York, and are therefore subject
to the laws of those two states.

person may initiate the transmission of an unauthorized electronic mail
message … or a bulk electronic mail message from a computer located in the

knows, or has reason to know, is held by a West Virginia resident … a
minimum damage assessment of one thousand dollars may be recovered
for violations of this article. Punitive damages may be awarded for the
willful failure to cease initiating unauthorized bulk electronic mail
messages. Court costs and reasonable attorney fees may be awarded for
