Terms Of Use

Personal Information
PointPatrol.com will not disclose any user's personal information or share any information the user has stored on the Point Patrol web site's database.
Data Backup
Point Patrol is not responsible for any lost data in the user's database. Point Patrol has provided the user a way to backup their databases on the Database>Backup screen and PointPatrol.com's hosting server, BlueHost, does a daily, weekly and monthly backup so the data is pretty safe. If there is a crash, sometimes a day may be missed if it crashed before it got a chance to backup for the current day. 
 
Memberships
Memberships are currently free, however, this may or may not change in the future. A membership will stay active as long as the user's Point Patrol system is accessed at least once a month. If after a month, it has not been accessed, a notice will be emailed. If ten days after the notice is sent, the account has still not been logged into, the account will be terminated; the databases will be deleted and the user account will be removed. The only other possible ways this account will be terminated is if the user cancelled it their self by selecting Cancel from the Membership menu option or if for some reason Point Patrol goes out of business.
Cookies
Cookies are saved on the user's hard drive when the user logs in to the Point Patrol system for only two reasons. They help keep unregistered users from accessing the system and they provide convenience so the user does not have to log in each time the system is run. The cookies are set each time the user accesses the Point Patrol system and will remain active on the user's hard drive for 90 days unless the user logs out prior to that. This means that the cookie will never expire as long as the Point Patrol system is accessed at least once every 90 days. If it is not accessed for 90 days, the user will be taken to the log in screen the next time the Point Patrol system is run.
 
JavaScript
JavaScript is the client-side programming language responsible for many of the features on this site such as opening browser windows, validating field input and displaying help just to name a few.
