Review Posting Policy

Heartland America, (and its affiliates, collectively referred to as "Heartland"), appreciates customer comments and reviews ("content"), and will periodically post such content on its websites or in other advertising. By submitting content, customer consents to the use of such content, and use of such customer's name or initials associated with such content, without compensation and as Heartland sees fit.

Customer submitting content further grants Heartland a non-exclusive, perpetual and worldwide royalty free license for the use of such content in any and all media as Heartland sees fit. Customers submitting content further agree and understand that Heartland must exercise an appropriate amount of control over such content, and must make decisions about which content to post, and in which venues. This means that not all content will be posted, and customer shall have no recourse or say regarding whether any particular content is posted or used in any form.

Content that is considered off topic will be deemed inappropriate and will not be posted. Likewise, content that exhibits offensive, inappropriate, threatening or obscene language or rhetoric, or contains misrepresentations of fact, will be deemed inappropriate and therefore also will not be posted.

Heartland reserves the right to post, not post, edit or delete content that is submitted through this website or those of its affiliates. Heartland assumes no liability for any content posted, or submitted but not posted, to or stored within any of its websites and databases.

While Heartland makes every effort to review and screen all content submitted by its customers, given the sheer volume of content it is not always possible to do so. Heartland assumes no liability for inadvertently posting content that may violate its stated posting policy, nor for any failure to review or post any particular submitted content.

Correcting/Updating Personal Information

If you need to change any of the personal information that you have previously provided us, please go to My Account or send an email to our Customer Support department.
