Program Affiliate Access:

The full registration record will be maintained in the Book Order System from date of registration up to the month of child’s 5th birthday. Upon month of child’s 5th birthday, program Affiliates are able to access an amended record, with the child’s name and account email removed, for 12 months. Upon the month of child’s 6th birthday, the registration record is no longer available to program Affiliates in the Book Order System.

The Dollywood Foundation, Inc. Access:

The full registration record is maintained in the Book Order System for program administration, research and program reporting from date of registration up to the month of child’s 11th birthday. Upon month of child’s 11th birthday, The Dollywood Foundation, Inc. will anonymize the registration record, permanently deleting all personally identifiable information (PII), and retain the anonymized record in the Book Order System for program reporting until the Dollywood Foundation ceases operation.

Neither we nor our owners, directors, officers, employees, licensors, vendors, and/or agents shall be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages or losses (including without limitation loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses), whether based in contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise, which you may incur in connection with the use of, or inability to use services, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages or loss.
In the event we are held liable for any damages related to such matters, your sole and exclusive remedy will be limited to reimbursement for services or products paid by you to the entity held liable which were not provided by such entity.

The Foundation does not exercise control over third-party websites. These other websites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data, solicit personally identifiable information from you, or contain information you may find inappropriate or offensive. The Foundation’s Privacy Policy addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect from you through our Services. Other websites follow different rules regarding the use or disclosure of the
Personal Data you submit to them. Please read the terms of use and privacy policies of the other websites you visit. The inclusion of any link to a website does not imply endorsement, authorization, or representation of our affiliation with that third party, nor is it an endorsement of the site’s privacy or information security policies or practices.

16. PRIVACY

We collect and use information about you and your use of Services. Our Privacy Policy includes our Data Processing Agreement, which details more information on what information we collect and how such information may be used. Please review the Foundation’s Privacy Policy for more information.

17. COMMUNICATIONS

By providing your email address to us or creating an account you consent to receive our newsletter, emails, and/or other communications from us regarding Services. You may unsubscribe from these communications at any time by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link included in any email or by contacting us via email at [email protected] with the word “UNSUBSCRIBE” in the subject line.

18. CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE

The laws of the State of Tennessee, U.S.A. (without regard to its conflict of laws principles) govern all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement and all transactions it contemplates,
including, without limitations, its validity, interpretation, construction, performance, and enforcement.

19. DISPUTE RESOLUTION (PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY)

(a) General. Certain portions of this Section are deemed to be a “written agreement to arbitrate” pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. The parties agree that this intended Section satisfies the “writing” requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act. If any controversy, allegation, or claim arising out of, related to, or connected in any way to your use of Services, (collectively, “Dispute”), then you agree the Dispute shall
be submitted to confidential arbitration in Knoxville, Tennessee, and you agree that all disputes will be governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee without regard to choice of law principles. The arbitration shall be conducted before one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively “Rules and Procedures”). Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorneys’ fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may seek injunctive or other equitable relief to protect our intellectual property rights in any court of competent jurisdiction. You hereby consent to and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non-conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in the state and federal courts of Tennessee. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court or tribunal with jurisdiction over the parties. As permitted by applicable law, you agree that any claim or cause of action you may have arising out of, related to, or connected in any way with your use of Services must be filed by you within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever banned. Any and all claims, judgments, and awards will be limited to actual third-party, out-of-pocket costs incurred (if any), but in no event will attorneys’ fees be awarded or recoverable.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you understand that you are thus giving up your right to go to court to assert or defend your rights. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator and not a judge or jury. You are entitled to a fair hearing, but the arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court. Arbitrator decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to very limited review by a court.

20. NO CLASS ACTIONS

You and the foundation agree that any claims brought against each other must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding, no arbitrator or court may consolidate more than one person’s claims, or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and may not award class-wide relief.

21. SEVERABILITY; HEADINGS

In the event that a provision of this Agreement is found to be unlawful, conflicting with another provision of the Agreement, or otherwise unenforceable, the Agreement will remain in force as though it had been entered into without that unenforceable provision being included in it. If two or more provisions of this Agreement are deemed to conflict with each other’s operation, we shall have the sole right to elect which provision remains in force. Headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not be used in its construction and/or interpretation.

22. NON-WAIVER

We reserve all rights permitted to us under this Agreement, as well as under the provisions of any applicable law. Our non-enforcement of any particular provision or provisions of this Agreement or applicable law will not be construed as our waiver of the right to enforce that same provision under the same or different circumstances at any other time.

23. ASSIGNMENT

We may assign our rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to any other party at our sole discretion.
