Privacy Policy

Effective Date: June 18, 2026
Last Updated: June 18, 2026

Camp SkyWay ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website campskyway.com and provides day camp programs at Camp Helen State Park in Panama City Beach, Florida. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect from families, campers, and website visitors, how we use that information, and the rights you have regarding your data.

By using our website or registering a camper, you confirm that you have read and agreed to the terms below. If you do not agree, please do not use our site or register for our programs.

1. Who This Policy Applies To

This policy covers:

• Parents and guardians who register campers or contact us

• Visitors to campskyway.com

• Campers (with parental consent — see Section 4 below)

• Job applicants and inquiries from prospective staff

2. Information We Collect

From parents and guardians:

• Full name, email address, phone number, and mailing address

• Emergency contact details

• Payment and billing information (processed by our payment provider — we do not store full card numbers on our servers)

• Communication history (emails, form submissions, messages)

From campers (collected only with verifiable parental consent):

• First and last name, date of birth, and age

• Medical and health information relevant to safe participation: allergies, medications, dietary needs, physician contact, and any condition our team should be aware of during camp activities

• Photos and videos taken during camp (used only with the photo release consent provided at registration)

• Activity preferences and session selections

From visitors to our website:

• Browser type, device type, IP address, and approximate location

• Pages viewed, time spent on pages, and referring source

• Cookie data (see Section 7)

3. Why We Collect This Information

We collect this information to:

• Process registration and enrollment for our day camp programs

• Communicate with families about session details, schedule changes, weather closures, and emergencies

• Keep campers safe by knowing about allergies, medical needs, and emergency contacts

• Process payments and issue receipts

• Improve our website, programs, and family communication

• Comply with Florida state regulations for youth programs and federal law

We do not sell, rent, or trade your information for advertising purposes. Ever.

4. Children's Privacy — Our COPPA Commitment

Camp SkyWay welcomes campers ages 5 to 14. Because many of our campers are under 13, we comply with the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

• We only collect information about a child after a parent or legal guardian has registered them and provided verifiable consent through our registration system

• Children under 13 cannot directly submit personal information through our website (the registration form is intended for parents and guardians)

• Parents and guardians can review, update, or request deletion of their child's information at any time by emailing us at the address in Section 11

• We do not target advertising to children or use their information for marketing purposes

• We retain a child's information only as long as needed to deliver the camp program safely and meet legal recordkeeping requirements (see Section 9)

If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information without parental consent, please contact us immediately and we will delete it.

5. How We Share Information

We only share your information when needed to operate the camp safely or when required by law. Specifically:

• With our staff and counselors at Camp SkyWay who need the information to care for your camper

• With our payment processor to process registration fees (they receive only what's needed to complete the transaction)

• With emergency personnel or medical providers if your child requires medical attention during camp

• With Camp Helen State Park staff for facility coordination and emergency response

• When required by law, such as in response to a valid subpoena or court order, or to protect the safety of our campers and staff

We never sell your data to third-party advertisers or marketers.

6. How We Protect Your Information

We take reasonable steps to keep your information secure:

• Our website uses HTTPS encryption for all data transmission

• Payment information is handled by PCI-compliant third-party processors

• Access to camper records is limited to staff who need it for their role

• Physical records (when used at camp) are kept in locked storage and shredded after the legal retention period

No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee that data sent over the internet will never be intercepted. If you believe a security incident has affected your data, please contact us right away.

7. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our website uses essential cookies to keep the site functioning (for example, remembering your registration progress) and basic analytics to understand which pages families find useful. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party advertising networks on our website — out of respect for the families who use our site, especially because many visitors are parents researching programs for children.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of our site may not work as expected if you do.

8. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you or your child

• Correct any information that is inaccurate or out of date

• Request deletion of your information (subject to legal retention requirements for camp records)

• Withdraw consent for photo or video use at any time

• Opt out of non-essential communications such as our family newsletter

To exercise any of these rights, email us at the address in Section 11. We will respond within 30 days.

If you are a California or EU resident, additional rights may apply under CCPA or GDPR — we honor these requests on the same timeline.

9. How Long We Keep Your Information

• Active camper records: kept while your child is enrolled and for a reasonable period after, to support re-enrollment and respond to questions

• Medical and incident records: kept for the period required by Florida law for youth programs

• Payment records: kept as required by U.S. tax and accounting law

• Website analytics: aggregated and retained for up to 14 months

When records are no longer needed, we securely delete or destroy them.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. For material changes, we will notify registered families by email before the new policy takes effect.
