About

Who we are

Our website address is: https://greenbboard.com

We are the Green B Board.  Your local electronic bulletin board.  In a global world, local communities can become lost in the clutter.  You might be able to chat with new friends from around the world but do you know your neighbors?  Do you keep in touch with them?  Does the guy down the road from you need some help or does he have something to sell that you are looking for?  Are you looking for local events to attend or local causes to support?  Do you have a notice or news that you believe your neighbors might be interested in?

Here at the Green B Board our goal is to reconnect folks within their local community.  It’s just like posting a ‘For Sale’, ‘Help Wanted’ or upcoming event flyer on the bulletin board at your local grocery store or in the local paper without the drive time, paper or ink!  Save time and money while helping to clean up our environment and save trees one flyer at a time!

Terms & Conditions

Once your flyer or business ad has been accepted and successfully posted to the Green B Board you will no longer be eligible for a refund for any portion of your order.  The content that you provide to us is the content we will post.  We are not responsible for any defects or errors in the information which you provide to us.  We strongly recommend that you double check your ad information and/or flyer prior to submission.  Once submitted any errors or defects that you find can be corrected by submitting an ‘edited order’ along with the indicated ‘editing fee’ and original order number.  In the rare instance that an error in your posting is created from our end we will correct it at no charge as soon as the error is brought to our attention.

We do not ‘police’ or censor any postings to this site with the following exceptions:  We do not allow illegal, pornographic, spam or scam content.  If you see this type of flyer posted to the Green B Board please notify us.  If we determine it to be illegal, pornographic, spam or scam it will be removed, the poster will be banned and NO REFUND WILL BE ISSUED.  Please keep this site family friendly.  Remember this is a local community bulletin board.  You are talking to your neighbors.  We don’t all need to agree but we should all be nice to one another.  Remember the golden rule ‘do unto others as you would have them do unto you’.

Please post your flyers in the proper location.  Business flyers cost a bit more than personal flyers and need to be posted as such.  Charging less for personal flyers benefits us all.  By encouraging personal flyer postings for bargain basement prices our bulletin board traffic increases, hence the number of folks viewing your business flyers greatly increases as well.  We think you will find our business flyer and ad rates to be quite reasonable anyway.  So there’s no need for you to try and get away with posting business flyers for the personal flyer rate.  Doing so will eventually cause us to raise rates for everyone.  Business flyers posted as personal flyers will be rejected and/or removed with NO REFUND being issued to the poster.  Thank you for your cooperation in helping us to keep our rates as low as possible.

Our personal postings are offered for 7, 14, or 30 day time periods.  Please help us keep our bulletin board clean by choosing the shortest appropriate time period for your ad (i.e. if you only have one item and expect it to sell quickly choose 7 days).  Two days before your posting expires, if you signed up for an account, you will receive a notification giving you the option to renew your flyer at a discounted rate.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Best of all, the Green B Board is completely private!  No memberships and no ad tracking!  You don’t even need an account to post a flyer unless you want one!  We at the Green B Board believe that the ads and pages that you look at online should be just as private as the flyers you look at on your local grocery store’s bulletin board.  You don’t even need to create a login identity or even give us your name if you don’t want to.  If prompted to provide this information when posting a flyer online, rest assured the Green B Board is not going to keep it or use it beyond the purpose of payment collection and will never target you with ads or sell your information to others.  Your information is just that… YOURS!  

The Green B Board will not knowingly give, sell, or otherwise transfer email addresses or phone numbers maintained by our electronic bulletin board site to any other party for the purposes of initiating, or enabling others to initiate, electronic mail messages except for persons viewing your posted flyers or ads with the express intent of contacting you regarding your posted notice or ad.
