We use your child’s camper information to ensure that your child is in the appropriate group or program. We use your telephone numbers in order to contact you in cases of emergencies. We use your mailing address to pick up and drop off your child to and from camp. Health information requested is to ensure that the Camp Directors, Nurses and Counsellors are aware of any medical or behavioural conditions, which may affect a camper’s participation in activities. We also collect information information about your child’s adjustment at camp.

We may obtain your express consent or we may determine that consent has been implied by the circumstances. Consent could be in writing such as: signed consent, e-mail or an application form, or verbally in person or over the telephone.
Providing us with your personal information is always your choice. When you inquire or enroll your child at Green Acres, we ask that you provide information that enables us to provide the best and most appropriate care for your child. In doing so, you consent to our collection, use and disclosure to appropriate third parties of such personal information for these purposes.
You also authorize us to use and retain this personal information for as long as it may be required for the purposes described. Your consent remains valid unless you provide us with written notice that such consent is withdrawn.
