Entry Only New England Privacy Policy

Entry Only New England (hereinafter, “Website”) has established this privacy policy to explain how user information is protected, collected, and used, which may be updated by the Website from time to time.

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify or otherwise alter this policy. Such modifications shall become effective immediately upon the posting thereof. Users must review this policy on a regular basis to keep apprised of any changes.

Should you object to any condition of this privacy policy, or any subsequent modifications thereto, your only recourse is to immediately discontinue use of the Website.

1. Protecting your privacy

• The Website does not knowingly collect any information from persons under the age of thirteen. If the Website learns that a posting is by a person under the age of thirteen, the Website will remove that post.
• The Website, or people who post on the Website, may provide links to third party websites, which may have different privacy practices. We are not responsible for, nor have any control over, the privacy policies of third party websites, and encourage all users to read the privacy policies of each and every website visited.

2. Data we collect

We collect information to provide better services to all of our users – from figuring out basic stuff like which language you speak, to more complex things like which ads you’ll find most useful or the people who matter most to you online.

We collect information in two ways:

• Information you give us. For example, many of our services require you to sign up or register. When you do, we’ll ask for personal information, like your name, email address, or telephone number.
• Information we get from your use of our services. We may collect information about the services that you use and how you use them, like when you visit a website that uses our advertising services or you view and interact with our ads and content. This information includes:
  • Device information. We may collect device-specific information (such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information including phone number).
  • Log information. When you use our services or view content provided by the Website, we may automatically collect and store certain information in server logs. This may include:
    • details of how you used our service, such as your search queries.
    • Internet protocol address.
    • device event information such as crashes, system activity, hardware settings, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request and referral URL.
    • cookies that may uniquely identify your browser.
  • Cookies and anonymous identifiers.  We use various technologies to collect and store information when you visit the Website, and this may include sending one or more cookies or anonymous identifiers to your device. The Website will not (and will not allow any third party to) use the Website to track or collect personally identifiable information of Internet users, nor will the Website (or will the Website allow any third party to) associate any data gathered from the Website (or such third parties’ website(s)) with any personally identifying information from any source as part of your use (or such third parties’ use) of the Website.

3. Data we store

• All comment postings are stored in our database, and may be deleted at the discretion of the Website.
• Third parties may be placing and reading cookies on your browser, or using web beacons to collect information, in the course of ads being served on the Website.
• Our server logs and other records are stored for temporary periods of time, and are occasionally purged.
• Although we make good faith efforts to store our information in a secure operating environment that is not available to the public, we cannot guarantee complete security.
• We do not store your credit card information in any form whatsoever.

4. Archiving and display of the Website postings by search engines and other sites

• Search engines and other sites not affiliated with the Website – including archive.org, google.com, etc. – may archive or otherwise make available the Website postings.

5. The Website only shares personal information with other companies or individuals outside of the Website in the following limited circumstances:

• We have your consent. We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any sensitive personal information.
• We have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to:
  • satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.
  • enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations thereof.
  • detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
  • protect against imminent harm to the rights, property or safety of the Website, its users or the public as required or permitted by law.

If the Website becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale of some or all of its assets, it is your responsibility to review and apprise yourself of any updates to the current privacy policy.

We may share with third parties certain pieces of aggregated, non-personal information, such as the number of users who searched for a particular term, for example, or how many users clicked on a particular advertisement. Such information does not identify you individually.

6. International Users

• By visiting the Website and providing us with data, you acknowledge and agree that due to the international dimension of the Website we may use the data collected in the course of our relationship for the purposes identified in this policy or in our other communications with you, including the transmission of information outside your resident jurisdiction. In addition, please understand that such data may be stored on servers located in the United States. By providing us with your data, you consent to the transfer of such data.

You and the Website agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of Travis, Texas. The failure of the Website to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Terms remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or the Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

17. VIOLATION OF TERMS AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

Please report any violations of the Terms, by flagging the posting(s) for review, or by contacting us via our Contact Us page.

Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.

You understand and agree that, because damages are often difficult to quantify, if it becomes necessary for the Website to pursue legal action to enforce these Terms, you will be liable to pay the Website the following amounts as liquidated damages, which you accept as reasonable estimates of the Website’s damages for the specified breaches of these Terms:

a. If you post a message that (1) impersonates any person or entity; (2) falsely states or otherwise misrepresents your affiliation with a person or entity; or (3) that includes personal or identifying information about another person without that person’s explicit consent, you agree to pay the Website one thousand dollars ($1,000) for each such message. This provision does not apply to messages that are lawful non-deceptive parodies of public figures.

b. If the Website establishes limits on the frequency with which you may access the Service, or terminates your access to or use of the Service, you agree to pay the Website one hundred dollars ($100) for each message posted in excess of such limits or for each day on which you access the Website in excess of such limits, whichever is higher.

c. If you send unsolicited email advertisements to the Website email addresses or through the Website computer systems, you agree to pay the Website twenty-five dollars ($25) for each such email.

d. If you post messages in violation of these Terms, other than as described above, you agree to pay the Website one hundred dollars ($100) for each such message. In its sole discretion, the Website may elect to issue a warning before assessing damages.

If you aggregate, display, copy, duplicate, reproduce, or otherwise exploit for any purpose any Content (except for your own Content) in violation of these Terms without the Website’s express written permission, you agree to pay the Website three thousand dollars ($3,000) for each day on which you engage in such conduct.

Otherwise, you agree to pay the Website’s actual damages, to the extent such actual damages can be reasonably calculated. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, the Website retains the right to seek the remedy of specific performance of any term contained in these Terms, or a preliminary or permanent injunction against the breach of any such term or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in these Terms, or any combination thereof.

f. Comments to blog posts are welcome, but those that are derogatory and/or libelous in nature, may be removed, at the Website’s discretion.
