YADA PRIVACY POLICY

Youth Academy of Dramatic Arts (“YADA”) is committed to providing a safe online experience for all participants.

COLLECTION OF PERSON INFORMATION
If you visit yada.org to browse, read, or watch videos we automatically collect and store only the following information about you:

  • The IP address from which you access our Web site (an IP address serves two principal functions: host or network interface identification and location addressing.)
  • The type of browser and operating system used to access our site
  • The date and time you access our site
  • The pages you visit
  • and The Internet address of the Web site from which you accessed our site

This information is used to improve the functionality of the website—to learn about the number of visitors to our site and the types of technology our visitors use. We do not track or record information about individuals and their visits. We may compile and report aggregate statistics about our users — numbers, traffic patterns, and related site information — but these statistics will include no personally identifying information. YADA is not responsible for privacy statements or other content on websites outside of YADA, including those linked from YADA’s website.

The Youth Academy of Dramatic Arts is concerned about protecting the privacy of our website visitors. In general, we receive two types of information: the personal information you provide voluntarily, and aggregated information about users as a whole.

PERSONAL INFORMATION

CREDIT CARD SUBMISSION
All credit card transactions including ticket purchases, deposits and class fees are processed on a secure server. Credit card information is protected by encryption technology, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. This helps to assure information is protected from unauthorized access.
