TownLife360 Limited Liability Company and its respective successors and assigns (“TownLife360,” “we,” “us” or “our”) welcome you. TownLife360 maintains this website (the “TownLife360 Site”) in furtherance of our commitment to communities to provide them with a comprehensive resource guide, placing events, information and listings at their fingertips. This TownLife360 Online Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) describes the types of personal, financial and other information that we gather from visitors who use or access the web content, products, technology and services provided by TownLife360 and available on the TownLife360 Site (collectively, the “TownLife360 Services”) and how we use the information that we gather. Please carefully read the Privacy Policy before accessing the TownLife360 Services as it applies to all persons and entities who use or access the TownLife360 Services, including you (each a “User”), and constitutes an agreement between you and TownLife360. By accessing the TownLife360 Services, you signify that you have read the Privacy Policy and agree to be bound by it and the TownLife360 Terms of Use (“Terms”) available on our Terms of Use page, as well as any applicable laws and regulations. We may update the Privacy Policy from time to time. Each time you use any of the TownLife360 Services, the current version of the Privacy Policy will apply. Accordingly, when you use the TownLife360 Services, you should check the date of the Privacy Policy (which appears at the top) and review any changes. If you do not agree with the Privacy Policy, you may not access or otherwise use the TownLife360 Services.
1. Overview on Collection and Sharing of Information
The Privacy Policy applies only to information that you provide to TownLife360 through the TownLife360 Services. It does not apply to information that TownLife360 may have obtained through other means, including but not limited to traditional mailing lists. TownLife360 allows a number of Advertisers (as defined below) and vendors to offer their services (each a “Vendor”) through the TownLife360 Site. Information that you provide to a Vendor is governed by that Vendor’s policies and procedures.
Information that we gather from Users falls into two broad categories: Personal Data and Aggregate Data.
2. Collection and Sharing of Personal Data
Personal Data is information that could reasonably be used to identify you, such as your name, address, email address, birth date, financial information, telephone number or any combination of the foregoing (“Personal Data”). We use Personal Data to provide you with TownLife360 Services that you have requested. By voluntarily providing Personal Data, you consent to the collection and use of your Personal Data in accordance with the Privacy Policy. If you do not wish to provide the requested Personal Data or if you do not agree to have us use the information for the purposes identified, it is your responsibility to decline to use those TownLife360 Services for which the Personal Data is sought. You can access and enjoy a wide range of TownLife360 Services without providing us with any Personal Data. However, certain TownLife360 Services do require that you provide some amount of Personal Data. For example, and without limitation, Users who wish to use the [Contact Us] and [Newsletter Sign-Up], participate in a contest or survey, create a User account, link to third party websites through the TownLife360 Services, and communicate with TownLife360 via electronic mail, may be required to provide varying amounts of Personal Data. When you submit Personal Data to us, we may add it to our database. Personal Data may also be disclosed to TownLife360 employees, independent contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve the TownLife360 Services.
You can request to review, change, update or delete Personal Data that you have previously submitted to us. We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before we grant you access to your Personal Data and comply with your request. Please be aware that even after such a request is processed, TownLife360 may, for a time, retain residual information about you in our backup and/or archival copies of our database.
3. Collection and Sharing of Aggregate Data
Aggregate Data is information that does not personally identify you such as frequency of visits to the TownLife360 Site, page views, TownLife360 Services most frequently accessed, your Internet Protocol (IP) address, referrer addresses, where your computer is routing from, your browser type and version, or your operating system and platform (“Aggregate Data”). We use Aggregate Data to help us develop and improve the TownLife360 Services overall.

9. Links to Other Websites
The TownLife360 Services contain links to websites operated by other people or companies. The Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third party sites, which may have their own privacy policies or no privacy policy at all. While we try to link only to sites that share our high standards and respect for privacy, TownLife360 does not control the content of third party sites and takes no responsibility for their content, nor should it be implied that TownLife360 endorses or otherwise recommends such sites or the products or services offered. We encourage you to review the privacy policies and terms of use of any third party sites or services before providing any of them with any of your personally identifiable information. This Privacy Policy applies only to the TownLife360 Services.
TownLife360 Vendor Sites. Sites hosted by Vendors may be accessed through the TownLife360 Services. In some cases, these sites may maintain the look and feel of the TownLife360 Site.

It is your responsibility to review the relevant privacy policies prior to accessing the services available on such Vendors sites.
