Camp Fire Privacy Policy

Camp Fire Alaska takes the privacy of its website users seriously.
Please review the following Privacy Policy.

 

What This Privacy Practice Covers

This Privacy Policy covers Camp Fire Alaska Council’s treatment of personally identifiable information that the Alaska Council collects when you are on the Council website and when you use Camp Fire services.

Information Collection and Use

Camp Fire collects personally identifiable information when you register, use or purchase certain Camp Fire events, products or services; or if you make a charitable donation to Camp Fire USA Alaska Council online.

Camp Fire also automatically receives and records information on our server logs from your browser, including your IP address. Camp Fire uses information for the general purpose of customizing the content you see.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

The personally identifiable information you provide is used by Camp Fire Alaska only for internal purposes, such as confirming and tracking your order, subscription or registration; analyzing trends and statistics; and informing you of new products or special promotions. Under no circumstances will Camp Fire Alaska il sell, rent or give your personal information to anyone or to any company for marketing purposes.

Camp Fire will send personally identifiable information about you to other companies or people when:

1. We need to share your information to provide the product or service you have requested.

2. We need to send the information to companies that work on behalf of Camp Fire to provide a product or service to you. (Unless we tell you differently, these companies do not have any rights to use the personally identifiable information we provide to them beyond what is necessary to assist us.)

3. We respond to subpoenas, court orders or legal process.

Security

In certain areas, Camp Fire uses industry-standard SSL-encryption to protect data transmissions. Security of credit card numbers and other personal information is a top concern to Camp Fire Alaska. Camp Fire’s online donation form has sophisticated encryption and authentication tools to protect the security of your credit card information.

To make sure you are accessing our secure server before you submit personal financial information, look at the lower left-hand corner of your browser. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending upon your browser), then SSL is active. To double-check for security, look at the URL or Address line of your browser. If you have accessed a secure server, the first characters of the address in that line should change from “http” to “https.” To help ensure that others will not have access to your credit card information while on Camp Fire’s website, please close your browser window when you have finished your visit, especially if you are sharing a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place.

Children’s Privacy

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act and rule (COPPA) protects the personal information of children under the age of 13. This applies to individually identifiable information about a child that is collected online, such as full name, home address, e-mail address, telephone number, or any other information that would allow someone to identify or contact the child. The Act and Rule also cover other types of information—for example, hobbies, interests and information collected through cookies or other types of tracking mechanisms—when they are tied to individually identifiable information. It is important for you to understand this law; we encourage you to read more about COPPA.

Internet Safety Pledge

Camp Fire encourages parents and children to read and sign, together, the Internet Safety Pledge. The link for this pledge is found on the Social Networking page of the website. Internet Safety Pledges are age-appropriate and provided by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).
