Terms and Conditions, Terms of Use, and Privacy Policy for BuzzBlast PR Services
By purchasing or using The Buzz Blast PR submission service ("The Buzz Blast", "we", or "us"), you (the "Customer" or "you") agree to these Terms and Conditions. These terms constitute a binding agreement between you and The Buzz Blast regarding the PR placement service.
The Buzz Blast provides a press release creation and distribution service. For a one-time fee of US$77, we will:
The list of Flagship Tier media outlets is subject to change over time. We do not guarantee the availability of any specific outlet at all times. If you have a preferred outlet, you may contact us at team@thebuzzblast.com prior to purchase to confirm its current availability. We reserve the right to update or modify the list of Flagship Tier outlets at our discretion.
The US$77 fee is a one-time charge for the standard Flagship Tier placement package. Payment must be made in full at the time of purchase. All payments are processed through a third-party payment processor for security; The Buzz Blast does not directly store your credit card or payment account information. By making a purchase, you authorize us to charge the provided payment method for the fee. Any additional services or upgrades (as described below) will incur additional charges at the prevailing rates, which will be communicated to you before you incur any such fees.
After your purchase and receipt of necessary information from you (such as your company details, news announcement, quotes, etc.), our team will draft your press release. We aim to deliver the initial draft for your review within 72 hours (excluding public holidays or weekends, if applicable). You are entitled to request unlimited revisions to the draft at no extra charge (subject to a fair use discretion determined by our writer), provided such requests are reasonable and submitted in a timely manner.
Important: Revisions are intended to address factual accuracy, clarity, and tone of the press release. If further revisions beyond our fair use policy are needed, they may be subject to additional fees or handled at our discretion.
Upon your approval of the final press release, The Buzz Blast will proceed to submit it for publication in the chosen Flagship Tier media outlet. Additionally, we can email the press release to a broad list of major U.S. media outlets (including news agencies, industry publications, and other relevant media contacts). This email distribution is included in the standard service but must be requested separately; however, publication in outlets beyond the chosen Flagship Tier is not guaranteed as it is subject to editorial discretion of those outlets.
The Buzz Blast guarantees that your press release will be placed in the chosen Flagship Tier outlet as described. If we are unable to achieve placement in that outlet (for example, if the outlet rejects the press release for reasons beyond our control), we will either:
Important: Except for the placement guarantee described above, all sales are final and non-refundable. Once work has begun on writing your press release or distribution has commenced, you are not eligible for a refund if you decide to cancel the service for any reason.
You agree to:
The Buzz Blast retains the copyright and intellectual property rights in all original content that our team creates for your press release. Upon your full payment for the service and final approval of the press release, The Buzz Blast grants you a broad license to use the final press release content. This license is perpetual (no expiration), worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, and fully paid-up, allowing you to use, reproduce, distribute, and publicly display the press release content for your personal or commercial purposes.
While The Buzz Blast strives to provide the best possible press release content and distribution, we do not guarantee any specific outcome beyond the placement commitments expressly stated in these Terms. For example, we cannot guarantee that your press release will result in any particular amount of media coverage, traffic, sales, or other business outcomes.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, The Buzz Blast's total liability to you for any and all claims arising out of or relating to the service or these Terms is limited to the total amount of fees you paid us for the specific service in question. In no event will The Buzz Blast or its owners, employees, or contractors be liable for any indirect, consequential, special, or incidental damages.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless The Buzz Blast, its directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) that arise out of or are related to: (a) the content of the press release or any materials you provided to us, (b) your use of the service in violation of these Terms or any law, or (c) your gross negligence or willful misconduct.
We reserve the right to modify these Terms and Conditions from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by posting the updated Terms on our website. Your continued use of our services after the Effective Date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
This agreement and any matters relating to it shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of our company's country of registration. You and The Buzz Blast agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of our country for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the service.

The Buzz Blast is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share your personal information when you use our services or visit our Site, in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.
When you engage our PR submission service or contact us, we may collect your name and email address. We use your email to communicate with you about your press release, send drafts, receive feedback, and deliver the final product or reports. We might also collect your phone number or other contact details if you voluntarily provide them for communication purposes.
If you make a purchase, payment details (such as credit card information or PayPal details) are collected by our third-party payment processor. The Buzz Blast itself does not receive or store your full financial information. We may retain records of transactions (e.g., the amount paid, date, and the service package or upgrades you purchased) for accounting and reference.
The content you provide for the press release (e.g., details about your company, announcements, quotes, names of individuals to mention, images or logos) may contain personal data. We collect and use this information solely for the purpose of creating and distributing your press release as part of our service.
When you visit our Site, we may automatically collect standard web analytics information through cookies or similar technologies (such as your IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and time spent). This information is typically collected in an aggregate form and is not used to personally identify you.
Marketing Communications: We will not use your personal data for any direct marketing (promotional emails about our services or new offerings) unless we have your consent to do so. If you opt-in to marketing communications, you will have the ability to opt out later by contacting us.
We share personal data with third-party service providers only to the extent necessary to carry out our services. For example, your payment information is handled by our payment processing partners. These third parties are given only the information needed for their function and are obligated to protect your data.
As part of our PR distribution service, the content of your press release (which may include personal data like a contact name or quote you provided) will be sent to journalists, editors, and media outlets. This is an intended part of the service — to gain publicity for your news.
We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or legal process, or if we have a good faith belief that such disclosure is necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect our rights or property, or protect the safety of our users or the public.
Important: We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties for their marketing purposes. We do not share your information with unrelated third parties except as needed to provide our services or as required by law.
The Buzz Blast takes reasonable measures to protect personal data from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. We implement appropriate technical and organizational safeguards such as encryption, secure servers, and access controls to protect the information you provide. However, please understand that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure.
We retain personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or to comply with legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. If you request deletion of your personal data, we will do so unless we are required or permitted to retain certain information (e.g. transaction records for tax or audit purposes).
Our operations are based in our company's country of registration, but we may use cloud storage, email servers, or service providers that are located in other countries. By providing your information to us or using our service, you acknowledge that your personal data may be transferred to and stored in jurisdictions outside of your home country.
Under applicable data protection rules, you have certain rights regarding your personal data. This includes the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you and to request correction of any inaccuracies. You may also have the right to request deletion of your data or to object to certain processing of your data, subject to conditions and exceptions under the law.
Our Site may contain links to external websites (for example, to payment processors or media outlets). This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or other factors. If we make material changes, we will notify you by updating the "Effective Date" at the top of this policy and, if appropriate, provide a notice through our Site or via email.
