All FreeToastHost websites say the following at the bottom:
"Site Hosting and Technical support provided by FreeToastHost, a free service of Toastmasters International."

My understanding is that this is not a service provided by Toastmasters International and it is completely separate from them. If that is the case, I don't understand why that message is there. It is incredibly misleading and it makes it sound like the site hosting and support is provided by Toastmasters International.

We were provided that wording by Toastmasters International as part of the agreement to use the Toastmasters International Branding on the FTH websites and server.

If you have questions on the wording please contact Toastmasters International.

Just to confirm, FreeToastHost and its websites are not owned, paid for, supported or administered by Toastmasters International, correct?

FTH servers are paid for by a fellow Toastmaster, all support is provided by fellow volunteer Toastmasters from many areas around the world, It is our way of giving back to Toastmasters like yourself by providing club website hosting at no charge to the Toastmasters clubs.

No one is in the employ of Toastmasters International, all branding remains the property of Toastmasters International and is used with permission.
