Eagle Bluff Privacy Policy
Eagle Bluff's website, in fact all Eagle Bluff's programs, are designed
around respect. We learn the names of students and program participants
here because we feel it is one way to show our respect for them. Our
student Code of Conduct revolves around the concept of respect. Indeed,
respect is the concept at the core of such ideals as ethical behavior,
stewardship, and environmentalism.
Your use of our website and the services it provides is subject to
that same concept of respect. We will not use persistent cookies to
identify you or to gain information about you. The only information
about you that we will gain is information you provide freely and knowledgeably.
With that information, we may continue to contact you. You may ask us
to stop at any time. If you provide us with credit card information,
you can be assured that it will be handled on secure lines and that
no one but You, Eagle Bluff, and your credit card company will know
what transpired.

donor or member, you recognize the value in what Eagle Bluff offers
