21. Lapsed Accounts: In order to keep Grey Gardens® membership roster current, if a Member does not access his or her account for a period of 720 days or more, Grey Gardens® may, in its sole discretion, terminate such Member's account. Grey Gardens® will endeavor to notify a Member of Grey Gardens®’ intent to terminate such Member's account by notice to such Member's provided email address at least 30 days prior to deactivation. If the Member fails to respond to such email notice with 15 days after the day it is sent by Grey Gardens® such Member's account will be terminated as noted above. Therefore, Grey Gardens® strongly recommends that all Members keep their accounts and contact data current and in use. While Grey Gardens® desires to prevent active accounts from being terminated prematurely, Grey Gardens® has no obligation to maintain accounts that appear to Grey Gardens® to have been abandoned. Each Member agrees that failure to access his or her account for 720 days or more conclusively indicates that such Member's account has been abandoned and that the account may therefore be terminated.
