This Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) applies to your use of Wheat Marketing Center’s (“WMC”) website at www.wmcinc.org (this “Site”), payment services, or participation in WMC’s courses or related activities. WMC reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify, add or remove portions of this Policy at any time and will notify you of such changes by posting the modified Policy on the Site and indicating the date the Policy was last updated.

Information WMC Collects
Personally Identifiable Information is information that can be used to identify you individually. WMC collects Personally Identifiable Information in connection with its services, but only when you provide such information voluntarily. Individuals may voluntarily supply certain Personally Identifiable Information, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and email address, in connection with registration for WMC’s course offerings. If you participate in a WMC course, your photographic image may be included in our photo archive for potential posting on the Site. WMC provides you the opportunity to pay course registration fees through the Site
using a credit card. WMC contracts with a third-party service provider (the “Payment Service Provider”) for credit card payment services. WMC does not collect or store your credit card information in connection with these transactions. By using the online credit card payment option, you provide your information directly to the Payment Service Provider, and are subject to its privacy policy and terms and conditions. If you have questions regarding your transaction, please review the Payment Service Provider’s policies and terms, or contact the Payment Service Provider directly. WMC is not responsible for the actions of the Payment Service Provider, including the use or
disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information by the Payment Service Provider.

WMC uses Personally Identifiable Information provided by you to register you for the WMC courses you request, and provide course materials and other services related to the WMC courses and WMC’s mission. WMC may use your Personally Identifiable Information to contact you in connection with WMC’s services. WMC may also evaluate
your Personally Identifiable Information for the purposes of improving Site functionality, and for other reasons deemed appropriate by WMC. WMC may disclose your Personally Identifiable Information to third parties in certain
circumstances. Your contact information, as provided by you in connection with registration for a WMC course, may be included in a directory that will be distributed to other course participants. Your photographic image may be posted on the Site or included in WMC’s marketing materials or press releases. WMC may disclose your Personally Identifiable Information to third parties in other ways for the purpose of providing you services you request. WMC may also disclose Personally Identifiable Information when we believe such disclosure is appropriate to comply with law; enforce or apply this Policy and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of WMC, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and risk reduction.
