A brief draft of site policy...

Disclaimers, ownership, privacy:

I dislike disclaimers and legalese, but it is important to me that nobody mistakes this website for anything other than what it is - a nonprofit independent source of velotourism and related information for Michigan's UP - and that it remains available to all so that they can use it to enjoy bicycling and Upper Michigan.

In short, you already know what's right and wrong.

This is a non-profit website, and all content submitted for inclusion on forums or elsewhere will remain the property and copyright of the original author, and will be removed from the website if requested.

No content on this website may be used elsewhere without permission of the content owners, including photos and text. The presentation of this website (design and original content) is the property of Robert Liebermann. It is freely reproducible for educational or personal purposes, but for any commercial or publication use written permission is required. link freely, though!

My (this is Robert, the website-maker) goal is to promote the UP as an ideal bicycle touring destination and, hopefully, convince a few others to give it a try.

The pronoun 'us' will hopefully be used more often than 'I' in future as this website gets beyond development and into regular-people use.

Any furure attempt at fundraising, advertising, or the like on this website will be 100% used to fund the site costs itself -- not my 'salary', beer, or touring costs! If I see any income possibilities from bicyscle touring in future, it'll be represented on a different website. If I transfer this website in future to any group or person the same standards will be maintained. This website will not try to fool, cheat, or sell you into anything. There are no paid opinions or paid anything here.
