Camp Mataponi Privacy Policy
At Camp Mataponi, we’re committed to creating an experience that’s not only fun and safe in person—but also secure and respectful online. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information shared with us through our website, mobile platforms, and any other online services that link to this policy (collectively referred to as the “Site”).
This Site is operated by Camp Mataponi, located in Naples, Maine.
Your Privacy Matters
We respect and value your privacy. This policy outlines how we collect and use information, including how we protect children’s privacy online. If there are any updates to our privacy practices, we’ll post the revised policy right here. By using our Site, you agree to the terms described in this policy.
Information We Collect
Personally Identifiable Information
We don’t collect personal information unless you provide it knowingly and voluntarily. You can browse our Site freely without submitting personal details. If you choose to share your name, address, email, or other information—such as during program registration, donations, or contact forms—we may use that information to support your experience with Camp Mataponi and to communicate about our programs and services.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information
To help us improve our website and services, we may automatically collect general technical data such as your browser type, device information, IP address, pages viewed, and referring links. This information helps us understand how visitors use our Site and may be collected via cookies or similar technologies (like web beacons). You can adjust your browser settings to disable cookies if you prefer.
How We Use and Share Information
The personal information you provide may be used to:
- Process registrations, transactions, or donations
- Facilitate your participation in our programs and communications
- Share updates about camp activities or promotions
- Improve our services and user experience
We may share your information with trusted service providers (e.g., for payment processing), but only as needed to support camp operations. We do not share mobile opt-in data or SMS consent with third parties for promotional use.
We may disclose your information when required by law or when necessary to protect your legal rights or ours.
Children’s Privacy
We’re deeply committed to safeguarding children’s online privacy. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13 without verified parental consent. With permission, we may collect limited information such as name, email, and participation details for online activities or services.
Parents can request access to, review, or delete their child’s information at any time by contacting us. We take special care to ensure children’s information is used only for its intended purpose and is never shared for marketing.
Cookies & Similar Technologies
Like most websites, we use cookies to make your visit smoother and more personalized. Cookies help us track general usage patterns and improve our Site content. You can disable cookies through your browser settings if you prefer not to use them.
We may also use web beacons for analytics, improving services, and relevant advertising. Our third-party advertising partners may use anonymized data to show ads that are relevant to you—but never your name, contact info, or personal details.
Links to Other Sites
Our Site may include links to external websites. Please note: once you click away, those sites have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to read them. We are not responsible for content or data practices outside of Camp Mataponi’s control.
Keeping Your Information Safe
We use reasonable physical, digital, and administrative safeguards to protect your data. For online purchases or form submissions, we use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption to protect sensitive information.
Always sign out when using a shared computer, and never share your password with others.
Credit Card Safety
We take extra precautions when it comes to online payments. Any credit card transactions processed through our Site are encrypted and secured. Look for “https” in your browser or a padlock icon to confirm a secure connection.
If you’re under 18, please have a parent or guardian’s permission before submitting payment online.
