Terms of Use

Effective date: October 8, 2026

Last updated: October 8, 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your use of the https://southerntiersummit.com website (the "Service"), which is operated by Southern Tier 8 Regional Board ("us", "we", or "our"). The Service provides information about the Industry Summit conference series, including events, news, sponsors and partners.

Acceptance Of These Terms

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to them, please do not use the Service.

Description Of The Service

The Service is an informational website. At present it does not offer registration, user accounts, purchases or online forms. If we introduce features such as event registration or ticket purchases, additional or updated terms will apply to them, and we will make those terms available before the features are used.

Permitted Use

You may use the Service for your own personal or internal business purposes to learn about our events. You agree not to:

  • Use the Service in any way that violates applicable law or the rights of others
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, its servers, or any systems or networks connected to it
  • Interfere with or disrupt the operation or security of the Service, including by introducing malware or by sending an unreasonable volume of automated requests
  • Use automated means, such as scrapers or bots, to copy the Service or collect its content in bulk, other than ordinary search-engine indexing
  • Misrepresent your identity, or imply that we endorse you, your organization or your products or services

Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise noted, the content of the Service, including its text, design, layout and photographs, is owned by or licensed to Southern Tier 8 Regional Board and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may view the Service and share links to its pages. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell or republish content from the Service without our prior written permission, except as permitted by law.

The names, logos and trademarks of sponsors, partners, speakers and other third parties that appear on the Service belong to their respective owners. They are shown to identify those organizations and do not mean that we own them or that the owners endorse the Service beyond their stated involvement. Nothing in these Terms gives you any right to use them.

If you believe that material on the Service infringes your rights, please contact us using the details below.

Event Information May Change

We work to keep information about events accurate, but dates, times, locations, agendas, speakers, sponsors and other details may change, and events may be rescheduled or cancelled, without notice. Information on the Service is for general guidance only. Please contact us to confirm details before making travel or other plans that depend on them.

Links To Third-Party Sites

The Service contains links to websites that we do not operate, such as the websites of sponsors and partners. We provide these links for your convenience. We do not control those sites, and we are not responsible for their content, availability, privacy practices or policies. A link does not mean that we endorse the site or its operator. You use third-party sites at your own risk and subject to their own terms.

Disclaimer Of Warranties

The Service and its content are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law. This includes any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, completeness and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or free of errors or harmful components.

Limitation Of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Southern Tier 8 Regional Board and its members, officers, employees, volunteers, and service providers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Service or any content or third-party site linked from it, even if we have been advised that such damages are possible. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of the above may not apply to you.

Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use the Service, including through Google Analytics 4, and how it is used. By using the Service you acknowledge the Privacy Policy.

Changes To These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms on this page and change the "Last updated" date at the top. If a change is material, we will also update the "Effective date". Changes take effect when they are posted. Your continued use of the Service after that means you accept the updated Terms, so please review this page periodically.

Governing Law

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to your use of the Service are governed by applicable law, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules.
