The W.E. Hines Foundation, Inc. (taken together with its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, and supporting organizations, collectively referred to as “HFN”) wants to promote a full and fair use of its web presence. This page states the Terms of Use (“Terms”) under which You (“You”) may use the HFN Sites and the HFN Services (each as defined below). These Terms constitute a binding agreement between You and HFN or the HFN affiliate company operating the web site for the country in which You live or in which your business is headquartered, and are deemed accepted by You each time that You use or access any HFN Site or HFN Services. If You do not accept the Terms stated here, do not use the HFN Sites and the HFN Services.
The HFN Sites (“HFN Sites”) are defined as any web sites under HFN’s control, whether partial or otherwise (including, without limitation, www.hinesfdn.org, any of the HFN domains listed herein, related thereto, owned thereby and the web site from which these terms of use were accessed from). The HFN Sites include a variety of features and services (“HFN Services”) that assist us in serving you and others. The HFN Sites may also include on-line communities designed to facilitate valuable professional and personal networking among users of the HFN Sites (“Users”) based on common experiences and interests (“HFN Communities”). In certain instances, The HFN Sites may also allow users to create individual profiles, which may include personal information (”Profiles”), and to make these Profiles, or aspects thereof, public.
You understand and acknowledge that you have no ownership rights in HFN Content (as defined herein), your profile, Submissions or accounts, and that if you cancel or delete any of the foregoing, all your information from such, may be marked as deleted in HFN’s databases, may be removed from any public area of the HFN Sites, and, eventually, wholly deleted. Even after you delete something, Information may continue to be available for some period of time because of delays in propagating any deletion through HFN’s web servers. In addition, third parties may retain cached copies of your Information. Because HFN owns all Content, Submissions, profiles and accounts, HFN may delete any such information at any time in its sole discretion.
HFN may revise these Terms at any time by posting an updated version to this web page. You should visit this page periodically to review the most current Terms because they are binding on You. Users who violate these Terms may have their access and use of the HFN Sites or HFN Services suspended or terminated, at HFN’s sole discretion.
