More about the information we use and why

Where we have a legal basis to use your personal information without consent (as we have described above), this Policy fulfils our duty to process personal information transparently, and helps us to do so fairly and lawfully and in a manner that you would expect given the nature of our relationship with you, by giving you appropriate notice and explanation of the way in which your personal information will be used.

Where consent is required for our use of your personal information, we will ask you to positively opt-in by ticking the appropriate consent box or otherwise communicating your consent.

Where you provide us with personal information relating to other individuals (for example, if you are a Camp Counsellor or a Campower and you give us your emergency contact’s details or your referees’ details), you must obtain the consent of those individuals before doing so.

If you have any questions or require any further information regarding our use of personal information please contact our data protection officer (see HOW TO CONTACT AIFS).

SHARING YOUR INFORMATION

We may share your personal information with your consent or as is necessary with selected third party service providers, and other companies within our group that support us in the performance of the activities set out in the tables above. See below for more details.

We require all our third party service providers and all other companies within our group to take appropriate security measures to protect your personal information in line with our policies. We do not allow our third party service providers to use your personal information for their own purposes and we only permit them to process your personal information for specified purposes in accordance with our instructions.

We may also need to share your personal information with a regulator or otherwise to comply with the law or to respond to valid legal process, including from law enforcement or other government agencies.

Why might you share my personal information with third parties?

We may share your personal information with third parties where it is necessary in order to consider you for the Program or to place you with a Camp, where required by law (as above), or where we have another legitimate interest in doing so that is not overridden by your interests and fundamental rights (for example, to protect Camp Counsellors or Campowers, or to operate and maintain the security of our computer systems).

Who will you share my personal information with?

We will share - and, in some cases, you will provide - certain information about you as follows:

  • we use Google to track your usage of the Camp America Website. We do so to improve our users’ experience of the Camp America Website

In addition, if you are a Camp Counsellor or a Campower:

  • we will share certain information about you (including your name, age, education and/or employment history, hobbies and interests) with Camp Directors to enable them to consider potential Camp Counsellors or Campowers for their Camps;
  • we will share certain information about your health with Camp Directors (a) during the application process, from your Camp America application form; (b) at the point your work placement is confirmed, from the form your doctor will complete on your behalf; and (c) from any further medical disclosures you make, if and when we receive further enquiries regarding your health from any Camp Director(s), to enable them to assess any medical and/or health issues which are relevant to your role as a Camp Counsellor or Campower;
  • we may share information that we collect as part of your application with our Agents and/or Interviewers. We do so to enable our Agents and Interviewers to assist us in interviewing, and placing you with a Camp;
  • we may share certain information (including your name, gender, date of birth and address) with third party suppliers such as IT service providers (including hosting providers such as Microsoft); travel and accommodation providers (including airlines and hotels); insurance providers; embassies; and border control agencies. We do so to facilitate your participation in the Program;
  • we may share certain information (including your name, gender, date of birth and address) with embassies and government departments (including the Student Exchange Visitor Information Service (SEVIS) – US Department of State). We do so to progress your visa application and to comply with visa regulations for your participation in the Program;
  • we may share certain information (including your name, gender, date of birth and details of any serious incident, e.g. a criminal or serious medical incident in which you may be involved) with the US Department of State if any such incident occurs during your participation in the Program. We do so in order to [comply with visa regulations for your participation in the Program];
  • we may share your contact details (including your name and address) with DHL, the mail and logistics company. We do so to enable DHL to deliver a visa pack to you to enable you to complete a visa application;
  • we may share or ask you to share certain information (including your name, age and address) with third parties carrying out background checks who will process that information as part of a criminal record check and share the results with us. We do this so that we can consider your eligibility for the Program; and
  • we will ask you to share your financial and/or payment details with a third party payment processors, SecureTrading and DotPay, (although we ourselves will never access that information). We do so to collect any payments associated with your Program fees.

RETAINING YOUR INFORMATION

We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including to satisfy any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To decide the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of it, the purposes for which we process your information, and the applicable law.

In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal information so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use such information without further notice to you. Even if you request that we erase your information, we may still need to keep it (see YOUR RIGHTS) or may keep it in a form that does not identify you.

The following retention periods will apply, unless we inform you otherwise (or you request that we erase your information).

If you are a Camp Counsellor or a Campower and you:

  • register your interest in or apply to take part in the Program but do not take part in the Program, we may retain some of your personal information (including your name, email address and date of birth) for a period of three years following the date when you first complete your registration and/or application; or
  • take part in the Program, we will process your personal information while you take part in the Program, and may retain some of your information for a period of seven years from the end of your Program, for example, to keep in touch with you and/or for legal reasons.

If you are a Visitor and you do not use the Camp America Website for one year, then we will erase your information. We may keep certain information for longer periods than those stated above if you have agreed to us using it, for example, for keeping in touch about our services or for our promotional purposes (such as part of a blog post on the Camp America Website).

Please contact our data protection officer if you would like further details on how long we retain your information (see HOW TO CONTACT AIFS).

TRANSFERRING YOUR INFORMATION OVERSEAS

If you are a Camp Counsellor or Campower based in the EEA, we may transfer the information we collect from you to Camps, to AIFS US and other relevant third parties based in the U.S. (i.e. outside of the EEA). We do so as it is necessary for us and for Camps to consider you for the Program, and so that you can take part in the Program (i.e. necessary for the performance of our obligations under our agreement with you).

If you are a Visitor based in the EEA, we may transfer the information we collect from you to AIFS US and other relevant third parties based in the U.S. We do so because part of the Camp America Website is operated out of, and accessed in, the U.S. and it is necessary for us to understand how it is used, so that we can improve it.

In each case, we will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your personal information receives an adequate level of protection and is treated in a way consistent with EU laws on data protection.

CHILDREN'S INFORMATION

We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under the age of 16 and you should not register your interest in or apply to take part in the Program if you are under the age of 16. If you become aware that your child or any child under your care has provided us with information without your consent please contact our data protection officer (see HOW TO CONTACT AIFS).

KEEPING YOUR INFORMATION SECURE

All personal information that you provide to us is stored on secure servers. We have put in place (and require anyone we share your information with to put in place) appropriate measures to protect the security of your information.

In addition, we limit access to your information to those of our employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know.

You should be aware that the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your information, we cannot guarantee the security of the information transmitted to the Camp America Website or by email; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access or inadvertent disclosure.

UPDATING AND ACCESSING YOUR INFORMATION

You have the right under data protection laws to access personal information held about you, subject to certain conditions, and to request its rectification or deletion.

If you would like to access or amend the personal information which we hold about you, or if you would like us to stop using your personal information, please contact our data protection officer (see HOW TO CONTACT AIFS).

Alternatively, if you are a Camp Counsellor or a Campower and you have completed an application to take part in the Program, you can access and amend most of your personal information by signing in to your account on the Camp America Website. However, once we have shared your personal information as described in SHARING YOUR INFORMATION above, you may be unable to amend that information by signing in to your account. If you would like to amend any of your personal information but you are unable to do so by signing in to your account on the Camp America Website, please contact our data protection officer (see HOW TO CONTACT AIFS).

To learn more about the rights you may have in relation to your personal information see YOUR RIGHTS.

YOUR RIGHTS

By law you have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal information (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it. We will need you to prove your identity before we release any personal information to you.
  • Request correction or erasure of your personal information (unless we have the legal right to retain it). You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal information where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below).
  • Object to processing of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
  • Request the restriction of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
  • Request the transfer of personal information that you have provided to us to another party.
  • Change your information processing preferences at any time (where this specifically relates to marketing messages, see MARKETING).

You should be aware that if you ask us to stop processing your personal information in a certain way or to erase your personal information, and this type of processing is necessary to consider you for the Program or in order for you to participate in the Program, then we may not be able to continue to provide our services to you and you may need to leave the Program. This does not include your right to object to direct marketing, which can be exercised at any time without restriction.

If you want to exercise any of the rights listed above, please contact our data protection officer (see HOW TO CONTACT AIFS).

No fee usually required to access your personal information

You will not normally have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request for access is clearly unfounded or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with the request in such circumstances.

What we may need from you

We may need to request specific information from you to confirm your identity and verify your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

Right to withdraw consent

Where you have consented to the collection, use or transfer of your personal information for a specific purpose, you have the right to withdraw your consent for that specific processing at any time. To withdraw your consent, please contact our data protection officer (see HOW TO CONTACT AIFS). Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your information for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to, unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so in law.

MARKETING

If you are a Camp Counsellor or a Campower, we would like to send you information by email, SMS and/or via social media about opportunities or services of ours and other companies in our group which may be of interest to you (including, for example promotional materials and newsletters). We will ask whether you would like us to send you these messages when you request a brochure / information or apply to take part in the Program.

You have the right at any time to stop us from contacting you for marketing purposes. If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, you can unsubscribe by using the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of our marketing messages or by contacting our data protection officer (see HOW TO CONTACT AIFS).

We will not provide your personal information to any businesses outside our group for marketing purposes.

OTHER WEBSITES
