The information gathered may be shared with corporate affiliates of Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing (for example, the U.S. Army). We also share the information with third parties, including responsible companies with which we have a relationship. For example:
- Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing may team with another Web site to conduct a sweepstakes or other event (e.g., SU Poll). In those cases, each of the participating Web sites may collect or receive personal information from you.
- Like other companies, may use an outside company to place its advertising banners or links on other sites. In certain cases, the advertiser may collect information on people who click on the banner or link.
In most of the above situations, these third parties will receive your information because you will be visiting their Web sites or using their links and, in doing so, you may provide information directly to them. You therefore should refer to their privacy policies to understand how they handle your information and what kinds of choices you have.
Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing also may share your personal information with outside companies that perform services for Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing. For example, we may retain an outside company to manage a database containing certain customer information or to create and distribute an email offering. In those situations, the outside party is performing work for Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing, and Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing takes appropriate steps designed to ensure your information is used only to provide the services requested by Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing, and not for other purposes.
Additionally, Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing may share account or other information when we believe it is necessary to comply with law or to protect our interests or property. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers, credit bureaus, agents or government agencies in connection with issues related to fraud, credit or debt collection. And in the event that some or all of the business assets of Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing are sold or transferred, we generally would transfer the corresponding information about our users.
Finally, Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing may share your personal information with unrelated outside companies so that they can directly market their products or services to you if we feel that a company offers products or services that we believe may be of interest. We also may provide you with the opportunity to sign up on our Web site to receive such email offers.

What About Information About Children?
The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) took effect on April 21, 2000 and imposes certain requirements on Web sites directed toward children under 13 that collect information on those children, or on Web sites that know they are collecting information on children under the age of 13. We want to let you know that it currently is Syracuse/IMG Sports Marketing’s policy not to collect personal information on any person under 13. For this reason, our online sweepstakes are restricted to entrants who, at a minimum, are at least 13.
