Privacy
The
following privacy policy governs our online collection of
information from you. This privacy policy, including our
children’s privacy statement, does not apply to any
information you may provide to us or that we may collect offline
and/or through other means; for example, at a live event, via
telephone, or through the mail. We may collect and store
information, personal or otherwise, that you voluntarily supply
to us online as part of the Service. We also collect and store
information that is generated automatically as users navigate
online through the Service. Unless you inform us otherwise,
CityNet reserves the right to use, and to disclose to third
parties, information collected from you while you are using the
Service (e.g., your name and e-mail address) for a variety of
reasons and purposes, such as providing users with information
about products and services. If you do not wish to be included
in such uses, you must send an e-mail or a letter to us
requesting to be taken off any lists of information that may be
used for these purposes or that may be given or sold to third
party vendors.
In
addition, please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily
disclose personal information online, for example on message
boards, through email, or in chat areas, that information can be
collected and used by others besides CityNet. CityNet cannot be
responsible for any unauthorized third party use of information
that you disclose online.
We use
"cookies" in a limited way to help deliver
advertisements and to identify unique browsers that visit us and
to track usage throughout our site. Some of our business
affiliates and advertisers use cookies, which can be used to
tell when your computer has contacted a web site. Because we do
not control the privacy policies of our business affiliates,
advertisers or any other sites to which we may provide
hyperlinks, you should check the privacy policy of the site you
are visiting if you have any concerns about that site’s use of
cookies or about that site’s use of your information.
We also
make some content, products and services available through our
Service through cooperative relationships with third party
providers, where the brands of our provider partner appear
prominently on the Service. We may share with our provider
partner any information you provide, or that is collected, in
the course of visiting any pages that are made available in
cooperation with our provider partner. In some cases, the
provider partner may collect information from you directly, in
which cases the privacy policy of our provider partner may apply
to the provider partner’s use of your information. The privacy
policy of our provider partners may differ from ours. If you
have any questions regarding the privacy policy of one of our
provider partners, you should contact the provider directly for
more information.
We are an
affiliate of the CareerBuilder online careers service. Through
our cooperative relationship with CareerBuilder, we are able to
provide you with access to the CareerBuilder products and
services through a co-branded CareerBuilder site. Because of
this relationship, CareerBuilder requests that we post the
following language regarding our co-branded CareerBuilder site
in our privacy policy: “You may have arrived at this Web site
by following a link from a CareerBuilder newspaper affiliate or
other affiliate. If so, please be aware that CareerBuilder may
share your information with that affiliate and the affiliate may
use the information consistent with its privacy policy instead
of this one.”
Be aware
that we may occasionally release information about our visitors
when release is appropriate to comply with law, to enforce our
Terms of Service agreement, or to protect the rights, property
or safety of users of our Services, the public, or CityNet.
Please
also note that as our business grows, we may buy or sell various
assets. In the unlikely event that we, some or all of our
assets, or one or more of our websites is acquired by another
company, information on our users may be among the transferred
assets.

future, we will obtain prior, verifiable parental consent before
collecting any personally identifiable information from children

also do NOT knowingly distribute such information to third
parties.

NOT knowingly allow children under the age of thirteen to
publicly post or otherwise distribute personally identifiable

CityNet
does not warrant or make any representations regarding the use
or the results of the use of the Service or materials in this
Service or in third-party sites in terms of their correctness,

intended for trading or investing purposes, or for commercial
use. Stock and mutual fund quotes, and related financial news
stories may be delayed at least 20 minutes, as may be required
by the stock exchanges and/or the financial information

In
addition, CityNet may allow you to purchase many different types
of products and services online that are provided by third
parties. CityNet is not responsible for the quality, accuracy,
timeliness, reliability or any other aspect of these products
and services. If you make a purchase from a merchant on the
CityNet or on a site linked to by CityNet, the information

site, and the information that you give as part of the
transaction, such as your credit card number and contact
information, is collected by the merchant. A merchant may have
separate privacy and data collection practices. CityNet has no
responsibility or liability for these independent policies. For
more information regarding a merchant, its online store, and its
privacy policies, return to that merchant's home page and click
on its information links or contact the merchant website
directly. You release CityNet and its affiliates from any
damages that you incur, and agree not to assert any claims
against them, arising from your purchase or use of any products
or services made available by third parties through CityNet.
When you
purchase products or services on or through CityNet, you may be
subject to additional terms and conditions that specifically
apply to your purchase or use of such products or services. If
you have any questions about these additional terms and
conditions, you should contact the merchant of such products or
services directly.
You agree
to be financially responsible for all purchases made by you or
someone acting on your behalf through the Service. You agree to
use the Service and to purchase services or products through the
Service for legitimate, non-commercial purposes only. You also
agree not to make any purchases for speculative, false or
fraudulent purposes or for the purpose of anticipating demand
for a particular product or service. You agree to only purchase
goods or services for yourself or for another person for whom
you are legally permitted to do so. When making a purchase for a
third party that requires you to submit the third party’s
personal information to CityNet or a merchant, you represent
that you have obtained the express consent of such third party
to provide such third party’s personal information.

that the advertisement as it appears on CityNet becomes the
property of CityNet and you assign all ownership interest in the
advertisement as it appears on the Service under copyright law
or otherwise to CityNet. Submission of an advertisement does not
constitute a commitment to publish the advertisement, and
publication of an advertisement does not constitute an agreement
for continued publication. We will accept only standard
abbreviations and required proper punctuation. CityNet reserves
the right to edit, reclassify, revise, reject or cancel any
advertisement at any time, in its sole discretion. Rates and

Real
Estate Advertisements; Equal Housing Opportunity
All real
estate advertised herein is subject to the Federal Fair Housing
Act, which makes it illegal to advertise "any preference,
limitation, or discrimination because of race, color, religion,
sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin, or intention
to make any such preference, limitation, or
discrimination." State law may also forbid discrimination
based on these factors and others. We will not knowingly accept
any advertising for real estate which is in violation of the
law. All persons are hereby informed that all dwellings
advertised are available on an equal opportunity basis. To
complain of discrimination call the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development at 800-669-9777.

of Liability

circumstances, including, but not limited to, negligence, shall

consequential damages that result from the use of, or the
inability to use, CityNet materials, products, or services, or
third party materials, products, or services made available
through the Service, or any part of the Service, even if CityNet
is advised beforehand of the possibility of such damages.
(Because some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
certain categories of damages, the above limitation many not
apply to you. In such states, the liability of CityNet, its
subsidiary and parent companies or affiliates is limited to the
fullest extent permitted by such state law.) You specifically
acknowledge and agree that CityNet is not liable for any
defamatory, offensive or illegal conduct of any user. If you are

or with any of CityNet’s terms and conditions, your sole and
exclusive remedy is to discontinue using the Service.

part of the Service at any time without notice. In the event of
termination, you are no longer authorized to access the part of

restrictions imposed on you with respect to material downloaded
from the Service, and the disclaimers and limitations of
liabilities set forth in these Terms of Service, shall survive.
Other
This
agreement constitutes the entire agreement between CityNet and
you with respect to the subject matter contained in this
agreement and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous
agreements, proposals and communications, written oral. You also
may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply
when you use the products or services of a third party that are
provided through the Service. In the event of any conflict
between any such third party terms and conditions and these
Terms of Service, these Terms of Service shall govern. This
agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any
principles or conflicts of law. If any provision of this
agreement shall be unlawful, void or for any reason
unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable
from this agreement and shall not affect the validity and
enforceability of any remaining provisions.
