Some SistaH of SurvivaL programs and activities may be designed for teens or young people. Participation requirements, parental or legal guardian consent, and information-collection practices may vary depending upon the particular program and participant's age.
We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children in violation of applicable law. When parental or guardian consent is legally required for participation or collection of personal information, we will seek appropriate authorization.
General portions of our websites are not intended to solicit personal information directly from young children without appropriate adult involvement.
Parents or legal guardians who believe a child has submitted personal information without appropriate authorization may contact us so that we can review the matter and, where appropriate, delete the information.

Certain services or programs may require information of a more sensitive nature. We seek to collect such information only when reasonably necessary for the requested service, program, transaction, or legal requirement.
Please do not send highly sensitive personal or financial information through ordinary email unless specifically instructed to do so through an appropriate secure process.
Payment card information submitted through third-party payment processors is handled according to the security and privacy practices of the applicable payment provider. We do not intentionally request that complete credit-card information be transmitted through ordinary email.
Travel Information
When you submit a travel inquiry, we may collect information such as destinations, travel dates, departure locations, number and ages of travelers, accommodation preferences, transportation preferences, budget information, and other information necessary to understand your requested travel arrangements.
If you later proceed with a booking, additional information may be required to complete reservations or transactions. Such information may be collected through a separate booking or authorization process and may need to be shared with airlines, hotels, cruise lines, rail providers, rental-car companies, tour operators, travel suppliers, payment processors, or other providers necessary to fulfill the requested travel services.
Information will be shared with such providers only as reasonably necessary to facilitate the requested service or as otherwise authorized or required by law.

Third-Party Websites and Services
Our websites may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites and services.
These may include payment processors, social-media platforms, form providers, scheduling systems, travel suppliers, video platforms, email providers, or other technology services.
When you interact directly with a third-party service, that provider's privacy policy and terms may govern its collection and use of your information. We encourage you to review those policies when appropriate.
Data Security
We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, misuse, or destruction.
However, no internet transmission, electronic storage system, or digital platform can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You are responsible for exercising appropriate caution when transmitting information electronically.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, maintain appropriate organizational or business records, comply with contractual requirements, resolve disputes, protect legal rights, and satisfy applicable legal or regulatory obligations.
Information that is no longer reasonably required may be deleted, anonymized, or securely disposed of consistent with our record-retention practices and applicable law.

Depending upon applicable law, these rights may include access, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, objection to processing, data portability, withdrawal of consent, and the right to lodge a complaint with an appropriate supervisory authority.
Where consent is the legal basis for processing, withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.
