When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

We do not knowingly share data with outside parties other than when required to do so pursuant to legislation. We use the data inputted into our registration system to administer our programs and maintain the health and safety of our participants. How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Personal data for program participants is kept on file for the legally required period, then deleted.

What rights you have over your data

If you have provided us with personal data, you can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. All other data is used only by ALIVE Outdoors Inc., for internal program delivery and planning. Personal data and end-user information are stored on servers within the United States.
