This means that we will not distribute, sell or rent your name or personal
information about you to any third party. ChoralNet may share non-personal,
non-individual information in aggregate form with its marketing partners for
research purposes. In other words, we will not tell our marketing partners that
you visited a certain page at the site, but we may tell them how many visitors
visited that page.
When we ask for an e-mail address as part of a ChoralNet submission, it is because we
sometimes have questions about user submissions. When no e-mail address is given, we
unfortunately sometimes have to discard otherwise worthy submissions because of the
inability to clarify uncertainties.
ChoralNet does not endorse nor use unsolicited email (i.e., bulk email
or "spam") as a marketing tool. Furthermore, it is expressly forbidden to
gather any e-mail addresses from this Web site or from any of the various communication
resources operated by ChoralNet (including, but not limited to Choralist, ChoralTalk, and our Web message boards) for the purpose of making unsolicited
commercial contact with the owners of those addresses. In addition, we hereby
forbid anyone from broadcasting even non-commercial messages to multiple
addresses obtained from this site. You may contact us using
this link with any
questions about this or any other policy.
ChoralNet accepts donations from supporters, both online and via postal mail
(see our ChoralNet Supporters page for details).
Our activities are also supported by choral-related advertisers
(see our Advertising page for details). Should a
refund of any funds paid to ChoralNet be deemed necessary by both ChoralNet and
the contributor of the funds, it is our policy to make such a refund within fifteen (15) days,
and in a manner mutually agreeable to the parties involved.
ChoralNet makes very limited use of "cookies." An example
of where they are used is on our List Subscription Control Center, where users can use a
Web form to subscribe to the ChoralNet e-mail lists, or to alter their subscriptions. In
this case, the e-mail address you enter may be saved to your computer. Our banner ad
scripts might also make use of limited cookies to keep track of which ads have been
displayed to a user, but we do not receive any identifying information. You are welcome
to visit and use our site, even if you have your browser configured not to accept
any "cookies."
