We do not knowingly collect information from children under 14 years of age.  We will only use or disclose personal information about a child to the extent permitted by law, to seek parental consent pursuant to local law and regulations, or to protect a child.  During the registration process, we will ask for your consent to use images and videos taken of your child during the season, for marketing purposes.  If you wish to withdraw that consent, you must provide written notice to us at rangeryouthcheerinfo@gmail.com using the subject line "Revocation of Consent".

​

All matters relating to these Terms and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or relating thereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule.  Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or Ranger Youth Cheer's program shall be brought in the state or federal courts in Kent County, Michigan, and you consent to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.

​

Refund Policy

​

As a non-profit organization, we try to keep the fees as low as possible to ensure that everyone has the chance to participate.  We are forced to make decisions about uniforms and pay insurance long before the season starts.  Due to the fact that we need to make these decisions in advance, the following refunds will be granted only if the person requesting the refund emails Ranger Youth Cheer at rangeryouthcheerinfo@gmail.com by the deadlines listed below. There will be no exceptions to the following rules.

 

In the event that a cheerleader no longer wishes to participate in the sideline cheer program:

 

  • Before the first sideline cheer practice:  a refund will be granted for the sideline cheer registration fee minus a $20 processing fee.

 

  • On or after the date of the first sideline cheer practice:  no refund will be granted.

 

In the event that the sideline cheer season is cancelled in its entirety due to pandemic or related shutdown:

 

  • Before uniforms are ordered: A refund will be granted for the sideline cheer registration fee.

 

  • After uniforms are ordered, but before the first practice: A refund will be granted for the sideline cheer registration fee minus a $20 processing fee, and participants may keep the bow and shirt ordered by Ranger Youth Cheer for participants’ uniforms.

 

  • On or after the date of the first sideline cheer practice:  The Ranger Youth Cheer Board will re-evaluate and refund a pro-rated amount calculated by taking into account the expenses incurred during the partial season.

 

Ranger Youth Cheer is not responsible for and will not refund any amounts paid to third party suppliers, including amounts paid for the supplemental parts of the cheer uniform (such as shoes and bodysuits).  RYC encourages persons seeking a refund for such items to work directly with the supplier of such items, pursuant to such supplier’s own refund policies.
