The County is not responsible for comments made by subscribers or members related to its social media applications and reserves the right to remove any content that is inappropriate for any reason and at any time. Third-party social media sites are private businesses with their own terms of service and privacy policies. The County does not accept any responsibility for the operation of third-party social media sites and is unable to guarantee the privacy of individuals who access content provided to such sites by the County. Those who fail to follow these guidelines will be given a warning, and then blocked from our site.
