Pack 12 Online Privacy Policy
The Boy Scouts of America, NeTSeO Trails Council and Pack 12 are committed to respecting and protecting the personal privacy of its members and those who visit its Web site. It is our policy to acquire personal information from users only by overt and voluntary means, only when it is in the interest of the user to provide it, and to utilize this information only for the purpose it was provided.
The information that follows explains the kinds of information the Pack 12 Web site collects, how it is used, the conditions under which it is made available to third parties, how information is maintained, and our compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act.
What information does this site collect?
Personally identifiable data is collected only by means of form interfaces on the site, into which the user must voluntarily enter the information requested and then click a submit button to transmit the data. This information is requested only when it is necessary to accomplish the overt purpose indicated by the interface containing the form that requests it. We require only the information reasonably necessary to accomplish the overt purpose indicated on the interface.
No attempt is made to covertly or "quietly" collect personally identifiable information, nor are cookies or any other tracking technology used for the purpose of coordinating information that a user may opt to enter in various interfaces on the site.
What organization is collecting the information?
Information entered by site visitors is received directly by an official of Pack 12.
How does Pack 12 use the information it collects?
Personally identifiable information is used only for the express purpose for which it was submitted. For example, if a user answers questions on the how to become a scout form, the information will be used only to call or to correspond with them regarding getting their child involved in Pack 12's scouting program.
With whom does Pack 12 share the information that is collected?
Pack 12 does not share personally identifiable information about its web site visitors with anyone.
Exception: Pack 12 reserves the right to use all information at its disposal and to share this information with ISPs and other third parties as necessary to protect the safety of our cub scouts or to investigate any incident of misuse or abuse of its site, server, or information systems.
How does Pack 12 maintain the information it collects?
In most cases, personally identifiable information is not maintained. Once it has been used for its intended purpose, it is deleted. Because of the brevity of this interval, no mechanism is provided to enable users to alter or delete information they have submitted.
How does Pack 12 comply with the
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) of 1998?
Pack 12 does not use its Web site to collect any personally identifiable information from children under 13 years of age. Any interface that requests personally identifiable information that appears on an interface that can be expected to be viewed by children under 13 years of age is accompanied by a notice that submissions cannot be accepted from usersunder 13 years of age.
Providing personal information is never a prerequisite for accessing any of the content or resources on this Web site. Specifically, refusal to provide personal information via a Web interface will never result in a user being denied access to any on-line content or resource he would be able to access were the information submitted.
