This Privacy Policy (this "Policy") explains how we collect, use and protect information that we learn about you as a result of your interaction with us through the websites provided by the domain GarthBrooks.com (collectively, the "Sites") and the services provided through the Sites (the "Services"). By accessing any part of the Sites or using the Services, you agree to this Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this Policy, please do not use the Sites or the Services.
We comply with United States privacy laws and regulations. We do not represent that the Sites are governed by or operated in accordance with the laws of other nations, or that the Sites or any portion of the Sites are appropriate or available for use in any particular location. If you choose to access the Sites, you do so at your own risk, and you are responsible for complying with all local laws, rules and regulations. Visitors to the Sites from outside the United States acknowledge and agree by using the Sites that the Sites are subject to United States laws and regulations, and waive any claims against us that may arise under their own national laws.
This Policy applies solely to our online information gathering and disclosure practices in connection with the Sites, and does not apply to any of our practices conducted offline. This policy does not apply to and we are not responsible for information you post in a public fashion, e.g. a bulletin board or chat room, or any other Site area where information you share is visible to others. Further, this Policy is only applicable to the Sites and not to any other website, including purchase and payment processing websites, that you may be able to access from any of the Sites which may have its own data collection and use practices and policies. This Policy is effective as of the indicated "Last Updated on" date. We reserve the right to modify this Policy at any time, and such revisions will become effective upon posting of the revisions to the Sites. For this reason, please visit this page on a regular basis and check the "Last Updated on" date to ensure that you are familiar with the most recent version of this Policy. Your continued use of any of the Sites or Services after the effective date of the revisions signifies your acceptance of any such changes or revisions.

This Policy answers the following questions:
The Sites are not for children under 13 years of age. However, there are some areas of the Sites that may be attractive to children under 13. We do not condition participation by a child of any age in any activity or any of the Services that are available on or through the Sites on the disclosure of more personally identifiable information than is reasonably necessary to participate in an activity. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from users of the Sites who are under 13 years of age. No personally identifiable information should be submitted to or posted at the Sites by visitors under 13 years of age without the prior written consent of their parent or guardian. If we receive an e-mail message from a child who discloses, or is otherwise known to us, to be under 13 years of age, we may, without the consent of the child's parent or guardian:
Any parent or guardian of a child under 13 years of age who has provided personally identifiable information to us may request a description of the personally identifiable information that has been collected from or about that child, and either limit or restrict any further maintenance or use of such information from that child and/or direct us to delete it. Also, a parent may decline to allow any future collection of personally identifiable information from that child. Such requests can be made by contacting us at info@garthbrooks.com. We will take reasonable measures to verify that the requesting party is, in fact, the parent or guardian of the child in question before providing a child's personally identifiable information to such person.
We will not knowingly use or disclose any personally identifiable information of a child under 13 years of age for any purpose except as described above.
