TERMS OF USE

Privacy

Dating Safety

In layman's terms, do not use this site if you are easily offended, if you are underage, if it is illegal to use it in your locality, or if you will use the site for illegal purposes, such as for commericial dating or meeting people who are not of consentual age. Violation of any of the Terms of Use contained in this document may result in removal of your Profile and prohibition from future use without refund, and, in certain cases, in the contacting of local authorities. Use the site AT YOUR OWN RISK, as you bear the full responsibility of any outcomes. USE CARE AND CAUTION WHEN MEETING STRANGERS. If you are under 18 and someone has given you a LittleGreenTicket, please do NOT view the Profile - give the ticket to your parents instead, and ask them about how to appropriately respond to invitations from strangers.

If you are under 18 years of age, then please do not use the LITTLEGREENTICKET website, and if you are given a LittleGreenTicket, talk with your parents about how to respond to invitations from strangers before viewing the site.

Privacy Policy

Put simply, we cannot guarantee your privacy. Just as Private MySpace photos were recently downloaded and shared with the world, there are chances that your profile could be unintentionally or intentionally seen. Our password system could be compromised, you could give a ticket to someone who passes it to someone who passes it to someone else...there are any number of ways that unwanted people could see your Profile. We may also be compelled by McCarthy-esque anti-terrorism laws to give out your info to the government without your knowledge or consent. If this bothers you, please do not use the website, or better yet, write your congressional representatives and tell them you want them to support internet privacy laws and civil liberties that are currently being eroded by a Draconian president and ambivalent Congress. Put simply, without Freedom of Speech and Expression, there is no Freedom at all.

Our Creed

We at www.LittleGreenTicket.com respect individual privacy and recognise that dating is a personal, private matter that should be kept private, and we will respect that (within the limits of local and federal law). We believe in freedom of speech, in the First Amendment, and in your privacy (which unfortunately is not part of the Constitution and SHOULD be!), and we will not modify or alter your words unless they violate our Terms of Use. Nudity that is legal and non-pornographic is fine. We want you to say what you want to say, be whom you want to be, and have fun meeting new people whom you click with -- without having to worry that everyone out there will be able to view your profile. Due to the possibility of viewing nude material, we restrict the use of this site to those who are of legal age. We encourage all races, genders, religions, cultures, sexual orientations, backgrounds, abilities, marital status, creed, age, color, or what-have-you to enjoy www.LittleGreenTicket.com. Except in the stated cases, such as the need for database management or other LGT-related issues, or to confirm or verify the Terms of Use, we will not knowingly offer your Profile to someone you have not given a LittleGreenTicket to, nor will we make assumptions based on the information you've provided what goods or services you prefer unless compelled to by law. We will try to be discreet if it becomes necessary to contact you. To the limits allowed by law, we will honor requests to purge our database of your personal information, provided you can give us proof of ownership of the account.

Steps we have taken to keep your Profile private:

  1. Profiles are password protected and info is kept in a database, rather than on a webpage.
  2. A Robots.txt file encourages spiders and webbots to skip the directory where images are stored.
  3. No links (that LittleGreenTicket has created!) point directly to any Profiles except the sample provided by the company owner.
  4. A Meta tag provides some additional discouragement for web searches.
  5. Your photo filename is randomized when uploaded to our server.
These are basic protections; however, the best advice is that you should not share any details online that are too personal to be made public. Our goal is to make it easier to meet the right people, and many things may be best left to conversations. Again, USE THIS SITE AT YOUR OWN RISK, for legal purposes only.

Email

We will not send you spam (but we may need to email you about changes to the site, issues with your account, billing, or other matters, and we reserve the right to do so). We will not sell your address or billing info.

Cookies

We do not currently store or read any cookies, but we reserve the right to in the future. We will not use cookies to infringe on your privacy, but for basic website needs, such as determination of site traffic. You will be alerted when cookies are implemented on the site, and in most cases, the site should still work even if cookies are disabled. If you are concerned about cookies being retained on your computer, simply alter your browser settings so that the cookie cache is deleted every time you close the browser.

Personal Information

We must collect some personal information, such as your email address and shipping information, to provide the services we provide. We do not rent or sell this information, and we use secure 3rd-party billing via PayPal, so at no time is your credit card information stored on our servers. We will appear discretely as "LGT" on your PayPal statement. We use simple page usage info to better maintain the website, but we do not cache IP addresses or any of your individually identifiable actions as you view our pages.

Who Sees my Profile?

Your site obviously may be viewed by anyone you give a ticket to, but keep in mind, if you give a person a ticket that ticket may end up on the sidewalk, in the trash, it may be given to someone else. (That's the LittleGreenTicket version of a blind date! Lol.) LittleGreenTicket and its employees may need to access your Profile to ensure compliance with our Terms of Use, verify that Nicknames and PassCodes match properly, do maintenence or other database work, improve our services, or other unspecified reason. We hope it doesn't happen, but a security breach or password problem (internal or external) could make your Profile available online. There may be other instances not explicitly mentioned that arise. We will cooperate with specific legal requests, such as a subpoena, to allow law enforcement officials to prosecute crimes. We will not knowingly allow access to profiles unless legally required to do so; however, we reserve the right to access any Profile at any time for any reason, and that such access may occur at anytime, with or without your prior knowledge.

What data is retained when I view a Profile?

We do not collect any information about you when you view a Profile, but a note is sent to the Profile owner that someone has viewed their Profile page. Banner ads may contain information that is retained. If you reply to a Profile, your email address must be included so the Profile owner may reply, but we do not rent or sell it, or use it in any way except to send the Profile owner your response. Any communication on LGT servers may be monitored or retained for legal requirements, for monitoring site performance, or for other reasons yet unspecified.

How long will data be kept?

Good question. We will keep Profiles for as long as necessary to fulfill legal requirements, then we may delete the information from our servers on request; however, even if deleted, we take no responsibility for data posted on our website. Keep in mind that once a Profile is published, however, it may be retained in viewer's browser caches or on web servers, etc. Upload information at your own risk. Data may remain on hard drives, it may be stored or copied, and users could make screencopies of your Profile. This is the internet, so consider yourself warned. Again, LGT is not responsible in any way for data that users have placed on our servers.

Dating Safety

As you head out into the dating jungle, we want you to be safe and careful. These guidelines are suggestions only, they're not intended to replace making your own careful decisions about what you should or shouldn't do.

Dating Safety means two things:
  1. Physical Safety
  2. Sexual Safety

Physical Safety

While what goes on during a date is entirely up to you (we wouldn't want it any other way -- dating is a private, personal matter that's nobody else's business!), we want to encourage users of this site to date safely. Most of the time, dating is just plain fun -- but just in case, here are some things you can do to be even safer:

  1. Use a separate Profile email account so that you don't have to give out your 'real' one.
  2. Your email address should never contain your full name and or birthday.
  3. Don't give strangers your home address, your mailing address, or let them know too much about your daily schedule.
  4. Meet in a public place the first few times, such as a mall or restaurant, and do not get into their car.
  5. Tell a friend about the first few dates, including the person's name and contact info, and let your friend know when you expect to be home.
  6. Use an internet search engine such as Google to see if the person's name appears in police records or reports.
  7. Take things slowly until you are comfortable and trust the person.

Sexual Safety

Sexual safety is vital to your dating, your health, and your peace of mind. We're not your parents, and we're not prudes, and we think that anything that's mutually consentual is just plain fine. But even after you're comfortable with someone, please keep the following things in mind:

  1. Using drugs or alcohol may impair your ability to make wise decisions or may impair your partner's ability to understand what you really do and don't want.
  2. Non-prophylactic birth control methods (such as the Pill) do not protect against sexually transmitted diseases.
  3. Properly using condoms each and every time you have sex will greatly reduce your chance of getting pregnant or contracting HIV; however,
  4. Condoms do not protect against many common STDs, such as crab lice, genital warts, HPV, and Herpes.
  5. Many common STDs have few or no symptoms, and can cause sterility, discomfort, organ failure, and cancer.
  6. Having anonymous sex, casual sex, or frequent sex with multiple partners greatly increases your risk of contracting HIV/AIDS and other STDs.
  7. Many people do not know they have an STD.

Getting yourself and your partner(s) tested for HIV and other STDs prior to having a sexual relationship is an important part of dating safety, particularly if you do not plan on using condoms.

Okay, that said, if you're feeling depressed or anxious, don't be: Dating is just as fun as it ever was, and we live in a society where we can be open and frank about one of life's greatest pleasures: exploring a lover, sharing intimacy, finding mutual satisfaction, and learning about yourself.

Please remember that the list above is not intended to replace your own careful research. You're the one responsible for what happens in your life. Your actions (or lack of action) determines what happens to you. Being informed is only part of the process -- the easier part. For additional information, try following these links:
