Introduction:
It is the intention of Outdoor Adventures Inc and Venture Out Resorts (“OAI & VO”), its affiliates, managers,
employees, and agents to maintain the highest standards possible in the course of its business. Toward this end,
Outdoor Adventures Inc & Venture Out Resorts does not intend to violate the privacy rights or wishes of any
person who does not want to be called by our organization. The following policy is mandatory in all solicitations
and campaigns by our company.
Do Not Call Policy (TCPA 47 USCS § 227)
Consumers may request by telephone or in writing, that our company stop calling them and place their name on our
company specific Do Not Call list. Although we may ask for their names, address and telephone number, we will accept
a request even if the consumer only wishes to provide their telephone number. Consumers have the right to have calls
stopped and to be put on our Do Not Call list, even if they are still a customer. The specific reason or severity of
the tone of the request is not important. ALL REQUESTS WILL BE HONORED.
When we receive a request, the telephone number is added to our Do Not Call list within (7) business days. In some
cases, it may take up to (14) business days for the consumer’s telephone to be removed from other company wide
calling lists. A Do Not Call request stays on our list for at least 5 years. If the consumer moves, changes their
telephone or adds additional telephone numbers, the consumer must provide us with the new telephone number in order
for us to prevent calls to that number. We will not share the information customers provide without their prior
permission, except affiliated companies or subsidiaries.
Other companies may perform telemarketing services on our behalf. In this case, we will also forward our updated Do
Not Call list(s) to these companies.
All employees and agents that engage in outbound telephone solicitation are trained in this policy and made aware of
these procedures before they are allowed to place calls to consumers. Customer Service representatives are also
trained pursuant to this policy before they are allowed to take calls from customers. Managers, supervisors, or
trainers must review this policy with these employees annually. Re-certification of training occurs on an as needed
basis.
If the consumer notifies us that they have received a telephone call from us after they have already requested to be
placed on our Do Not Call list, we will apologize for the intrusion and have a manager or supervisor investigate.
The manager or supervisor will also personally confirm that the telephone number is on the Do Not Call list. Upon
request, we will mail the consumer a confirmation that their telephone number is on the list.
The Federal Trade Commission offers a free service to consumers that allow them to place their residential phone
number on a National Do Not Call Registry. This service will reduce the number of telemarketing calls received.
Consumers may add their residential phone number to the list either by calling 888-382-1222 or through the internet
at www.donotcall.gov. It may take several weeks before they notice a reduction in calls.
The methods and procedures in this Do Not Call policy are reviewed by Outdoor Adventures Inc & Venture Out
Resorts Legal team on a regular basis, as the TCPA atmosphere is constantly changing. As the interpretation of the
TCPA changes, so will Outdoor Adventures Inc & Venture Out Resorts Do Not Call Policy.

Procedures for third party telemarketers:
Outdoor Adventures Inc & Venture Out Resorts DNC requests will be consolidated and forwarded to our 3rd party
telemarketer. The DNC request file will minimally contain the consumer’s 10-digit telephone number and the date of
request. Any consumer complaints regarding repeat calls subsequent to a DNC request will be reported to Outdoor
Adventures Inc & Venture Out Resorts Do Not Call Administrator. Consumer requests for a copy of our DNC policy
will be fulfilled by registered mail within 14 business days. Records of this action will be forwarded to our Do Not
Call Administrator.
Procedures for employees:
Employees who receive a written, e-mail or telephone DNC request will enter the DNC request in the following manner:
• The request will be forwarded to our Do Not Call administrator who is responsible for maintaining the internal DNC
list.
• The Do Not Call administrator will log the phone number and date of the request.
• At the end of the day, the Do Not Call administrator will compile all of the requests from that day, and forward
them to our 3rd party telemarketer, as well as, our Do Not Call Administrator.
• Both Outdoor Adventures Inc & Venture Out Resorts and its telemarketers will honor the request for 5 years
after the request is made.
Requests for our DNC Policy will only be fulfilled by US mail. Policies must be sent within 14 business days of
consumer’s request. If someone asks for a copy of our DNC policy, that request will be forwarded to our Do Not Call
administrator, immediately. The Do Not Call administrator shall print a copy of our policy within 14 business days
and mail it by US mail to the requestor at the address provided. The date of mailing shall be logged in the internal
DNC spreadsheet.
Established Business Relationship (EBR) Calls:
During calling campaigns to our existing customers, someone may express concern that we are calling them even though
they have placed their number on the national or state DNC list. Many customers do not understand that calls to them
are exempt (within regulatory parameters) from the DNC rules as long as they have not previously asked to be placed
on our internal DNC list.
Request for Do Not Call Policy
Our Do Not Call Policy is available on our website at www.outdooradventuresinc.com. Any person who requests a copy
of our do not call policy is entitled to receive it as soon as possible. The requestor will be sent a copy in
accordance with these practices and procedures.
