Voting/Polling and Viewing Events
Although we aim to have each event and/or voting/polling opportunity be legitimate, timely, non-offensive and accurate, BoomerangCast is does not create the events, the voting questions, sponsor material, voting/polling options, setup the broadcast schedule, time, or broadcast range. Items appearing in the BoomerangCast mobile application are based on the event being setup by our partner organizations and all content, aside from pure structure of the mobile application, is created, maintained, verified by them. Any images and text aside from default BoomerangCast logos and navigation text is entered by our partners directly and the responsibility for ensuring accuracy, timeliness, appropriateness, and legality lie with the partner organizations. For any issues related to material presented within the BoomerangCast mobile application please raise the issue to support@boomerangcast.com
Deals and Sponsors
All sponsor information including, but not limited to, images, website addresses, image labels, offers, sponsor logos, and/or all other information or material associated with the sponsors has been inserted into the BoomerangCast mobile application by our partner organizations who are solely responsible for content verification, accuracy, and legal terms of use. BoomerangCast will address any offensive issues, copyright issues, or otherwise as the case may rise. If in the case BoomerangCast solicits sponsorship for a partner organization and allows said organization to use/publish sponsorship information, BoomerangCast will ensure the legality and accuracy of the information provided to the partner to use although the final application/use of the provided sponsorship content will be at the discretion of the partners to whom the content was provided.
Partners
BoomerangCast’s service provides the infrastructure to create, maintain, and engage your audience for conducting live event and broadcast voting and polling. As a partner you are given access to the BoomerangCast sites which allow you to create, schedule, and broadcast voting and polling events including but not limited to event names, questions/text appearing on voting pages, images for your organization, images for your sponsors, labels for images, and voting/polling options appearing in the application. Events display on the Live Events page within the mobile application and should include one or more voting/polling screens.
Although we aim to have our services up and running at all reasonable times, our infrastructure may be down at times for upgrades, maintenance, technical issues, government and/or legal requirements, and/or improvements to our service which may result in your inability to have your event be conducted through our services without notice. We will attempt to notify you in case of planned outages in area, time, and/or specific events but there may be instances where we are unable to identify the full list of impacted event partners. We do our best to ensure our partners who are given access to the BoomerangCast admin websites and mobile apps are legitimate organizations, there may be times when we are required, by law, nature of the business, or other reasons to reject and/or revoke access for reasons we determine.
All content inserted into the BoomerangCast infrastructure and/or broadcast through our partner-created events is considered third party material falling under the responsibility of the third party(s) who generated, sourced, and/or inserted it into the BoomerangCast sites and/or BoomerangCast mobile application. BoomerangCast maintains ownership of the infrastructure and not the content. We regularly, through internal quality checks, audit events, voting/polling questions, responses, images, sponsors, and system performance but are not liable for any content that is created by our third party partners found to be offensive, vulgar, inappropriate or infringing on copyright laws. The third party who created the content, uploaded the content, and/or broadcast the content maintains responsibility to ensure its appropriateness and/or legal authorization for use within the BoomerangCast site and/or mobile applications through written, verbal, and/or understood consent from the individuals or organizations whose content, name, title, or images are inserted into the BoomerangCast site(s). Any copyright or legal issues raised due to content posted by a partner organization, tracked by internal system logging of events through username and passwords within the BoomerangCast sites, which result in legal fees and/or services impacting BoomerangCast, LLC will be paid for by the partner organization that created the event.
Scheduling and Maintaining Events
We created the BoomerangCast admin sites for easy access for our partners to be able to use our services. Each partner is given at least one log-in for the BoomerangCast admin sites and through this initial login, the partner organization maintains its own list of administrators who are deemed as representatives of the partner organization itself, hereby deemed partner administrators. Partner administrators are responsible for adding, removing, maintaining the organization’s administrator list, although BoomerangCast’s support team will help in the case of access/login issues and/or addition/removal of partner administrators given adequate notice. All activities performed through the BoomerangCast sites are tracked by partner administration login information by way of username and password stored and tracked within the BoomerangCast sites. We encourage organizations and their list of partner administrators to keep personal login information private to prevent fraud, misuse, or other issues that may arise. BoomerangCast reserves the right to revoke or deny access to the BoomerangCast sites and/or mobile application for abuse, fraud, legal issues, or any other reason we see appropriate without requiring justification for our reasoning.
As our partner you are responsible for appropriate naming conventions for events as well as appropriate voting/polling questions/text and responses which include, but is not limited to, names, whether individuals, businesses, external or internal organizations, and the name of the event, any titles, images, voting options, sponsor content including images, text obtained or manually entered, labels, website links, and pricing if using a paid sponsor. The geographic area, time, and duration of the events you create and/or maintain is entirely your responsibility and BoomerangCast is not liable for any errors or arising issues in creating or maintaining your events and broadcasts in regards to inaccuracies in scheduling events for broadcast.
Sponsors Within each voting and polling screen, embedded into an event, is the ability for our partner organizations to insert representation for sponsors. We encourage partners to verbally, as well as through the BoomerangCast mobile apps, draw attention to those sponsors in order to create value for the sponsors for sponsoring partner events. Sponsors are inserted into the voting and polling screens by the partners directly through the BoomerangCast sites. The sourcing of those partners and all content associated with them including, but not limited to, text, sponsor names, images, personal contact information, business contact information, which are obtained, entered, or created, are inserted into the BoomerangCast administration sites either by the BoomerangCast sales team or the partners themselves through the partner administrators. BoomerangCast does not insert sponsors, and any content associated with them into the voting and polling screens for broadcast through the BoomerangCast mobile application, nor is BoomerangCast liable for any copyright, appropriateness, or obtaining permissions for use of the content in the BoomerangCast administration websites or mobile apps for all sponsor content inserted by our partner organizations.
For sponsors sourced, contacted, or obtained by a partner organization, it is the responsibility of the partner organization to ensure permission, accuracy, appropriateness, authorization, either written, verbal, or understood, before inserting any content into the BoomerangCast sites including, but not limited to any naming, titles, labels, images, whether created or obtained. It is also the partner’s responsibility to ensure appropriateness, accuracy, and appropriateness of the wording, images or other information inserted into the BoomerangCast sites or mobile applications. Although BoomerangCast regularly checks sponsor information sourced, obtained, used within the BoomerangCast site or mobile application, we cannot ensure we will catch any issues for legality, copyright issues, obscene or vulgar images or text but we do ensure that we will take appropriate action when we come across such a case or a case is raised to our attention. If you would like to raise any issue regarding a copyright, legal issue, obscene or vulgar, or otherwise inappropriate use of our services, please contact us as support@boomerangcast.com.
Partner organization are given the ability to source sponsors, obtain imaging, wording, labels, names, contact information and determine pricing for the sponsoring of events at their discretion. BoomerangCast’s administration sites allow for management of sponsors and associated material to be used by the partner organization as well as the ability to maintain inventory of sold vs. used sponsor spaces. It is the partner’s responsibility to charge what you see as a fair price and to ensure your sponsors get value from their efforts and funding of your events. BoomerangCast does not determine any pricing for partner solicited sponsorship, nor do we ensure accuracy of any sponsor information entered or broadcast. Partner organizations have the ability to allocate sponsor visibility in the BoomerangCast mobile applications through the allocation of “spaces”. Sponsor spaces sold should be used/inserted into the partner’s voting and polling screens as agreed to between the sponsor and the partner organization with BoomerangCast excluded from said agreement.
Social Media
Users of the BoomerangCast mobile applications have the ability to login and access voting/polling events. In addition, partner organizations have the ability to enable/disable social media postings from polls. When enabled, individuals using the Boomerang/BoomerangCast mobile app must have their social media settings set to ON in order for the mobile app to launch the social media posting capability. When the social media posting is enabled by the partner, and by the individual, the social media default posting will include the partner's image along with the name of the poll which the user has voted in, and where applicable, allow the individual to enter a custom message to attach to the post.
An example of social media posting for the partner "Glentree High School" with a poll called "Glentree MVP Vote" would display Glentree High School's image as maintained by BoomerangCast but obtained from the Glentree High School, along with the name of the poll, along with the boomerangcastadmin.com website which creates the posting image and wording along with a link to a boomerangcastadmin.com website containing the same information as the polling content stated above while highlighting the sponsors obtained by Glentree (if any) with their logos/images.
Partner organizations using the social media option within voting/polling and/or events within the BoomerangCast sites and/or mobile application are completely responsible for the content of the social media posting including, but not limited to, appropriateness, legality of content and verbiage, timeliness, and must adhere to any/all local and national laws.

We encourage partners to verbally, as well as through the BoomerangCast mobile apps, draw attention to those sponsors in order to create value for the sponsors for sponsoring partner events. Sponsors are inserted into the voting and polling screens by the partners directly through the BoomerangCast sites. The sourcing of those partners and all content associated with them including, but not limited to, text, sponsor names, images, personal contact information, business contact information, which are obtained, entered, or created, are inserted into the BoomerangCast administration sites either by the BoomerangCast sales team or the partners themselves through the partner administrators. BoomerangCast does not insert sponsors, and any content associated with them into the voting and polling screens for broadcast through the BoomerangCast mobile application, nor is BoomerangCast liable for any copyright, appropriateness, or obtaining permissions for use of the content in the BoomerangCast administration websites or mobile apps for all sponsor content inserted by our partner organizations.
For sponsors sourced, contacted, or obtained by a partner organization, it is the responsibility of the partner organization to ensure permission, accuracy, appropriateness, authorization, either written, verbal, or understood, before inserting any content into the BoomerangCast sites including, but not limited to any naming, titles, labels, images, whether created or obtained. It is also the partner’s responsibility to ensure appropriateness, accuracy, and appropriateness of the wording, images or other information inserted into the BoomerangCast sites or mobile applications. Although BoomerangCast regularly checks sponsor information sourced, obtained, used within the BoomerangCast site or mobile application, we cannot ensure we will catch any issues for legality, copyright issues, obscene or vulgar images or text but we do ensure that we will take appropriate action when we come across such a case or a case is raised to our attention. If you would like to raise any issue regarding a copyright, legal issue, obscene or vulgar, or otherwise inappropriate use of our services, please contact us as support@boomerangcast.com.
Partner organization are given the ability to source sponsors, obtain imaging, wording, labels, names, contact information and determine pricing for the sponsoring of events at their discretion. BoomerangCast’s administration sites allow for management of sponsors and associated material to be used by the partner organization as well as the ability to maintain inventory of sold vs. used sponsor spaces. It is the partner’s responsibility to charge what you see as a fair price and to ensure your sponsors get value from their efforts and funding of your events. BoomerangCast does not determine any pricing for partner solicited sponsorship, nor do we ensure accuracy of any sponsor information entered or broadcast. Partner organizations have the ability to allocate sponsor visibility in the BoomerangCast mobile applications through the allocation of “spaces”. Sponsor spaces sold should be used/inserted into the partner’s voting and polling screens as agreed to between the sponsor and the partner organization with BoomerangCast excluded from said agreement.
Social Media
Users of the BoomerangCast mobile applications have the ability to login and access voting/polling events. In addition, partner organizations have the ability to enable/disable social media postings from polls. When enabled, individuals using the Boomerang/BoomerangCast mobile app must have their social media settings set to ON in order for the mobile app to launch the social media posting capability. When the social media posting is enabled by the partner, and by the individual, the social media default posting will include the partner's image along with the name of the poll which the user has voted in, and where applicable, allow the individual to enter a custom message to attach to the post.
An example of social media posting for the partner "Glentree High School" with a poll called "Glentree MVP Vote" would display Glentree High School's image as maintained by BoomerangCast but obtained from the Glentree High School, along with the name of the poll, along with the boomerangcastadmin.com website which creates the posting image and wording along with a link to a boomerangcastadmin.com website containing the same information as the polling content stated above while highlighting the sponsors obtained by Glentree (if any) with their logos/images.
Partner organizations using the social media option within voting/polling and/or events within the BoomerangCast sites and/or mobile application are completely responsible for the content of the social media posting including, but not limited to, appropriateness, legality of content and verbiage, timeliness, and must adhere to any/all local and national laws.
