              Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy, 
              we would like to share our online information practices and the 
              choices you can make about the way your information is collected 
              and used. This privacy policy

              through an online form. All of your information is transmitted in 
              an encrypted format. 
            • Because our travel programs are 
              offered in conjunction with the services of other companies such 
              as airlines and hotels, we need to share some of your personal information 
              with those companies, only to the extent that it is necessary to 
              complete your travel arrangements. 
            • When you participate in an 
              online contest or survey, WorldStrides may ask you for personal 
              information such as your name and email address. Your participation 
              in online contests and surveys is voluntary.  
            • If you fill out a form to request 
              information on becoming a Program Leader, we may contact you to 
              provide information on becoming a WorldStrides Program Leader. 
            • When you submit information about 
              another teacher for our “Refer a Friend” program, we 
              may contact that teacher in regards to becoming a WorldStrides Program 
              Leader.

              purpose and we do not share these addresses with outside parties. 
            • Information collected from online 
              registration, contests, surveys or online forms may be used to provide 
              you with special promotions or online information that we believe 
              might be of interest to you. 
            • To respect the privacy of 
              our users, we provide the opportunity to opt-out of certain types 
              of communication. You may also email us directly at update@worldstrides.com
