Effective September 2, 2026.

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of https://douglasschoraledc.org/ and the information and features that Washington Douglass Chorale ("WDC," "we," "us," or "our") makes available through the Website. By using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Website.


About the Website

The Website provides information about WDC, concerts, past events, auditions, media, support opportunities, and other activities. It may also link to external services for functions such as ticketing, donations, scheduling, search, media, and newsletter signup.

Website information may change as programs, schedules, availability, and services change.


Acceptable Use

You may use the Website for lawful, personal, and informational purposes. You must not:

  • interfere with the Website's operation, security, or other people's use;

  • attempt to gain unauthorized access to a system, restricted area, or information;

  • introduce malicious code or use automated means in a way that disrupts or burdens the Website;

  • misrepresent your identity or submit information that you are not authorized to provide;

  • use the Website to violate another person's rights or applicable law; or

  • copy, modify, distribute, or commercially exploit Website content except as allowed by law or with permission from the applicable rights holder.

WDC may restrict access to the Website or a feature when reasonably necessary to address misuse, security, technical problems, legal obligations, or a violation of these Terms.


Website Content

Text, graphics, photographs, recordings, logos, and other materials on the Website are provided for information about WDC and its activities. Rights in those materials belong to WDC or to the identified owner or licensor. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of Website content to you.

You may link to public Website pages in a way that is accurate and does not imply an endorsement or affiliation that WDC has not authorized. Contact WDC before using Website content for another purpose unless the use is permitted by law.


Third-Party Services and Links

The Website may link to or embed services operated by other organizations, including services used for ticketing, donations, scheduling, search, media, analytics, and communications. WDC does not control those services. Their terms, privacy policies, availability, and transaction rules apply when you use them.

A link or embed does not by itself mean that WDC endorses all content, products, services, or practices of the third party.


Tickets, Registrations, and Events

Ticket and registration activities linked from the Website are completed on the identified external platform. Prices, fees, availability, fulfillment, refund or exchange terms, and other transaction conditions are those displayed for the applicable event or transaction. Review them before completing a purchase or registration.

Concerts, programs, artists, repertoire, dates, times, venues, and access arrangements may change. WDC will provide current information through the Website, the applicable ticketing or registration service, direct communication, or another reasonable channel when available. Questions may be sent to info@washingtondouglasschorale.org.


Donations

Donation activities linked from the Website are completed through the identified external platform. The external platform's displayed terms and controls apply to the transaction. Questions may be directed to the provider or to info@washingtondouglasschorale.org.

Any statement about tax treatment is general information only. Donors should obtain advice appropriate to their circumstances.


Auditions and Scheduling

Audition information may be provided on the Website, by email, and through a linked scheduling service. Availability, requirements, and schedules may change. Information entered on an external scheduling service is subject to that service's terms and privacy policy.


Privacy and Cookies

WDC's Privacy Policy explains how WDC handles personal information. The Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies are used on the Website. Those policies are incorporated into these Terms by reference.


No Professional Advice

Website content is for general informational purposes. It is not legal, tax, financial, medical, or other professional advice. Seek advice from a qualified professional when appropriate.


Availability and Accuracy

WDC works to keep Website information useful and current but does not guarantee that every item will always be complete, current, uninterrupted, secure, or error-free. The Website and its content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis to the extent permitted by applicable law.


Limitation of Responsibility

To the extent permitted by applicable law, WDC is not responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or similar losses arising from use of or inability to use the Website or an external service linked from it. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits a right or responsibility that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.


Indemnity

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you are responsible for losses, claims, or costs arising from your unlawful misuse of the Website, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of another person's rights.


Changes to the Website or These Terms

WDC may change, suspend, or discontinue Website content or features and may update these Terms as its services, practices, or obligations change. The current version and effective date will be posted on this page. When appropriate, WDC may provide additional notice through the Website, email, or another suitable channel.

Your continued use of the Website after revised Terms are published means that the revised Terms apply to that later use. If you do not agree with revised Terms, stop using the Website.


Severability and Waiver

If a provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, it will be limited or interpreted to the extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue to apply. A failure to enforce a provision on one occasion does not waive the right to enforce it later.
