The content and services of this website are provided "as-is". The Sonoma County Beekeepers' Association (hereinafter referred to as SCBA) makes no representation or warranties of any kind with respect to this site, its contents or services, whether express or implied.
Under no circumstances shall SCBA or of its principals, employees, suppliers or other representatives be liable for any special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages or any other damages under any legal or equitable theory, even if SCBA or its representative has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
The entirety of this website is copyright 2005-2010 by the Sonoma County Beekeepers' Association. Certain elements, such as contributed photographs are copyright by their respective owners, but permission has been granted for their use on this site.
This site is copyrighted within the United States of America, a member of the Berne Convention, which grants it specific legal protections and recourses in all Berne Convention signatory nations.
This copyright protection extends to all parts of this site -- the page layout, textual and graphic content, embedded code (including, but not limited to Java, JavaScript, and other technologies), and meta headers, in whole or significantly so.
These pages incorporate original graphics (images, icons, lines, buttons, textures, etc), which may not be extracted and used elsewhere without consent.
You may not publish any of these works in any hardcopy medium (magazines, newsletters, e-zines) without the express permission of the SCBA Board.
Use of any SCBA logo element on any site other than those owned by the SCBA itself, in a manner implying endorsement where there is in fact no signed legal agreement to that effect, is strictly prohibited.
Permission is granted to link to these pages from other WWW sites, though you are expressly forbidden to "source" content from this site for inclusion on your own site or service, either by leeching the graphics off of this site, or by enveloping this site, or portions thereof within a frame. You may NOT distribute the material (writing, images, audio, or movie files) from these Web pages via other Internet distribution mechanisms (FTP, EMail, gopher, etc) without the prior written consent of the SCBA. The information presented here may not under any circumstances be resold or redistributed for compensation of any kind without prior written permission from the SCBA Board. Reasonable - and properly attributed - excerpts of links is permitted.
If you have any questions about these terms, or would like information about licensing materials from the SCBA, please contact us via EMail: president@sonomabees.org.
Trademarked names may appear within these pages or linked pages. Failure to specifically identify a mark as a trademark in no way implies ownership of that mark by the SCBA.
Some material quoted in these pages (from newsgroups, email, and other websites) was originally written by other individuals. Wherever someone else has been directly quoted, attribution has been given, and permission to quote the material in this work has been obtained (references are visible within the HTML source).
The SCBA firmly believes in members rights to privacy. Membership rosters are not published, and contact requests are carefully screened. The swarm list is comprised of members who elect to have their contact details published so that individuals with honey bee swarms and structure-inhabiting colonies may contact them.
In order to provide a more integrated experience with this website and to improve compatibility and ease of use, browser cookies may be used. As with virtually every website on the internet, this site logs web requests, and that data is available to the administrators of this website to analyse visitor interest and browser compatability. This data is not shared outside of the administration of the SCBA.
To improve communication for the SCBA, there are a number of instances where we may request your email address. This is for association use only - for notifying members of last minute changes to meeting venues, important notices, and even library materials due reminders. Rest assured, we will NOT disclose your email address to other parties - not even to other association members.
Emails sent to board members may be distributed amongst the board members for review and discussion.
Emails sent to the newsletter editor are considered submission material for the newsletter unless the email specifically indicates otherwise.
We will not knowingly gather information from minors without parental consent.
This site contains links to internet resources published and maintained by third parties. At the time of publication, those links were deemed appropriate and of general interest to our membership. However, since documents published outside of our website are maintained by others, we have no control over those resources - links can become stale, or outside publishers may modify their content, adding or removing material. If you find the content of a linked site objectionable, take it up with the publisher of that site.
The presence of links to external sites from this site does not imply endorsement by the SCBA. Likewise, links from other sites to this website should not be taken to represent any affiliation, formal or otherwise.
These policies are subject to change. Any changes will be reflected in this document, which is linked in a consistent manner from the association website.
