Services that Require Registration

Some of our most useful services are personalized; different visitors get different results based on information they provide. For example, if a student creates an account and signs in, he/she can see his/her lesson history, account information and payment history. On the other hand, when teachers or schools sign in, they have an option to modify their schedules and profiles in addition to their history of lessons and transactions.

Please note, if you do not logout once registered and signed in for services that require registration, other users may view some of your personal information if they have access to your computer.

We need to collect your personal information from you for specific reasons. Our site's registration form requires users to give us contact information (like their name), unique identifiers (like their email address), and, when registering for membership or a lesson with a teacher, financial information (like their account or credit card numbers). We use customer contact information from the registration form to send the user information about our company and promotional material from some of our partners. The customer's contact information is also used to contact the visitor when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the Opt-In/Out section below. Financial information that is collected is used to bill the user for products and services. Your email address is necessary as a unique identifier when you create an account and is used to send you confirmation that you are registered and confirmations of transactions. You need to choose a secret password so that you can keep the personal information that you enter on Fluteland.com private. If you are a teacher, we request more extensive information, such as an address and educational history, for use in creating your profile.

All student information you provide, including your email address is uniquely identifying and is not shared with anyone outside Fluteland.com, unless you first give us your permission. Flute professional's profiles are publicly available, so any personal information entered is available to everybody, with an exception of the email address. Although people are able to contact the flutist, a flutist's email address is not publicaly displayed.

Please note, it you choose to participate in our online discussion boards, your posts will be publicly accessible, as will the username and email address you use. We encourage you to exercise caution when deciding to disclose this personal information.
