Dupree Dance is the owner of the information collected on this Site. Except as provided in this Policy, we do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about you to anyone, except as permitted by law, however, we may choose to disclose all of the information we collect, as described above, to companies that perform marketing services on our behalf or to other similar companies with whom we have joint marketing agreements. Your information may be disclosed to companies that provide support services to us in relation to those services, such as data processors, technical systems consultants and programmers. Additionally, this information may be shared with some Dupree Dance partners. Dupree Dance may share aggregate information about our users with advertisers, sponsors and other third parties, though such summary information will not identify any specifics directly related to your identity. We may also provide analysis based on the information we collect, to our strategic alliance partners and other risk sharing partners. We may use the personal identifying information you provide to administer Site usage and monitor traffic-levels, and to contact you regarding improvements we can make to our Site and our services, if necessary. We also may use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the Site, track user movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. As we develop our business, we may buy or sell assets and, depending on the transaction, your personally identifiable information may be one of the transferred assets. In the event that we are acquired by another company, your personal information may be part of the assets transferred to the acquiring party. Similarly, if Dupree Dance should ever file for bankruptcy or merge with or be acquired by another company, we may sell the information you provide to us to a third party or share your personal information with any entity resulting from such transaction. We may use your e-mail address to contact you directly regarding services, products or information that we believe might interest you. Only Dupree Dance (or agents working on behalf of Dupree Dance and under confidentiality agreements) will send you these direct mailings. If you do not want to receive such mailings, simply tell us when you give us your personal information. Or, at any time you can easily opt-out of receiving further marketing from Dupree Dance by contacting us and requesting to have your name removed from our lists. Certain information a user provides may be accessible by designated guests and other information may be accessible publicly to the extent the provider of the information elects to participate in certain services included in the Site. You authorize us to disclose any information about you to law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, or other illegal activity. We utilize PayPal to process our credit card transactions. Their privacy policies are available at http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/gen/ua/policy_privacy-outside. Your contact information is only released to another user if you register to use that aspect of our site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. 2. Confidentiality of Transmissions Please remember that transmissions on the Internet are not always confidential. You are transmitting this information at your own risk. 3. Abuse of Terms of Use We have the right to share your name and contact information with our attorneys and law enforcement officials, if needed, in the event we believe you have breached our Terms of Use Agreement. 4. Choice/OptOut If you prefer that we not disclose nonpublic personal information about you to nonaffiliated third parties, you may opt out of those disclosures; that is, you may direct us not to make those disclosures (other than disclosures permitted by law).

Onward Transfer (Transfers to Third Parties) We will apply the Notice and Opt-out policies discussed above in the event we propose to disclose your information to a third party. 6. Security This website takes every reasonable precaution to protect our users' information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line. For your security, if we collect any financial information from you, the related portion of our Site will be encrypted with Secure Sockets Layer Protocol ("SSL") technology on both the client and server end. VeriSign has issued Dupree Dance a unique ID, which assures visitors that they have reached our authenticated Site, thereby allowing communications to be encrypted. In order for 128-bit SSL to work, though, you must have a browser that supports SSL technology. While on a secure page, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers, such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer, becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just 'surfing'. It should be noted that emails and other information you send to us, except that which you send us on a secure page, is not encrypted and such transmissions cannot be considered a secure means of transmitting sensitive information. Dupree Dance will never ask you to submit your financial data, such as your credit card account numbers, via e-mail. IF YOU RECEIVE AN EMAIL REQUESTING THAT YOU FORWARD INFORMATION OF THIS NATURE BY EMAIL, PLEASE DO NOT REPLY DIRECTLY TO THE EMAIL. Please click here to find out more information regarding internet scams of this nature often referred to as phishing. You should be aware of the limitations of security, authentication, encryption, and privacy measures used in connection with the Internet and that any information you transmit through the Site may be damaged, corrupted, "sniffed" and/or accessed by another person without your permission. Finally, the servers on which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment, with access restricted. Regardless of the precautions taken by you or by us, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet. We cannot ensure or warrant the ultimate security of any information you transmit. 7. Collection and Use of IP Addresses We may use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the Site, track user's movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information. 8. Cookies A cookie is a small data file that certain Web sites write to your hard drive when you visit them.

Web beacons, also known as clear gif technology or action tags, may be utilized in conjunction with cookies.
