One of the main priorities of the Maurice Duruflé Academy of Music website and our services (this “website” and the “services”) is the privacy of our visitors. This privacy policy document describes types of information that are collected and recorded by this website and the services, and how we use and treat it. This privacy policy forms part of this website’s terms of service, and we encourage you to read both documents in conjunction with each other.
This privacy policy applies only to our online activities – this privacy policy is not applicable to any information collected offline or via channels other than this website or our services. Individual services accessible by and through this website may also be governed by their own privacy policies.
If you have additional questions or require more information about this privacy policy, do not hesitate to Contact Us.
