Information you share with us

The information we receive depends on the form you use. Required and optional fields are marked on each form.

  • Camp inquiries and visits: your name, email address, a camper’s entering grade, summer of interest or visit availability, and any phone number or questions you choose to include.
  • General messages: your name, email address, message, and optional phone number.
  • Staff inquiries: your name, email address, role of interest, and any availability, agency information, experience, or questions you provide.
  • Alumni contact updates: your name and email address, plus any mailing address, phone number, camp connection, years at William Lawrence Camp, or note you share.
  • Camp Family News: your name, email address, camp connection, update, publication choice, and any years at camp, photograph, caption, or credit you include.
  • Newsletter subscriptions: your name, email address, and subscription and confirmation details.

Please include only what is needed. Do not send medical records, payment card details, government identification numbers, or other sensitive information through these public forms. Ask the camp office for the appropriate way to provide it.

How we use and share information

We use this information to answer questions, help families explore camp, arrange visits, respond to employment inquiries, update alumni records, send requested camp news, and review Camp Family News submissions. Website activity helps us operate, protect, and improve the site and measure our outreach.

Inquiries, contact updates, and Camp Family News submissions are saved in our website’s form records and sent to the camp office by email. Camp personnel and the providers supporting these systems process information for those purposes.

William Lawrence Camp does not provide its contact or mailing lists to outside organizations for those organizations’ own marketing. Our website also uses third-party tracking services, described below, which receive information about website activity.

Information may also be disclosed when required by law or reasonably necessary to address fraud, security incidents, or threats to someone’s safety.

Camp Family News and photographs

The Camp Family News form asks whether William Lawrence Camp may publish your update. Choosing “Yes” permits William Lawrence Camp to share your update, name, and any submitted photograph in The Knoll News or on the William Lawrence Camp website. Choosing “No” tells the camp office not to publish your submission. Submissions are reviewed before publication and may be edited for length and clarity. Your contact email is for follow-up and is not published as part of your news.

Share only information and photographs you have permission to provide, including appropriate permission for people pictured and from a parent or guardian for a child. Avoid including private details about someone else.

You can contact the office to change your publication choice or request removal from William Lawrence Camp’s website. We cannot recall newsletters already distributed or control copies others have made. Photo permissions collected during camp enrollment are handled separately.

Email updates and newsletter choices

Our website newsletter signup sends your name and email address to Mailchimp. It uses an email confirmation step to confirm your subscription. The Request Info form has a separate, optional choice to receive more camp updates; it is not required to receive an answer to your inquiry.

You can unsubscribe using the link in a camp marketing email or ask the office to change your preferences. Unsubscribing from optional updates does not prevent replies to your questions or necessary communications about an active camp relationship.

Cookies, website activity, and service providers

Our website and its service providers collect technical information such as IP address, browser and device details, pages viewed, referring pages, and visit times. Cookies are small files stored by your browser; pixels and similar tools can send information about a visit or interaction to a provider.

  • WordPress.com and Jetpack: Automattic provides our website hosting and related services. Jetpack Stats measures visits and link activity. Learn more in Automattic’s visitor privacy notice.
  • Google: Google Analytics is configured for website traffic measurement. The site also uses Google Maps and YouTube content, and the Contact form uses reCAPTCHA to help detect spam and abuse. These services can receive device and activity information when they load or you interact with them. See Google’s Privacy Policy. The Contact form is protected by reCAPTCHA, and Google’s Terms of Service apply.
  • Meta Pixel: The website includes Meta Pixel, which sends page-view information to Meta for advertising measurement and related advertising uses. Meta may associate website activity with other information it holds, including a Facebook or Instagram account. See Meta’s Privacy Policy and privacy controls.
  • Mailchimp: Mailchimp processes newsletter contact and subscription information and email delivery activity. When email tracking is enabled, it may also record opens and link clicks. See the Intuit Global Privacy Statement covering Mailchimp.

You can manage or delete cookies in your browser and use the privacy controls offered by these providers. Blocking cookies may affect features such as forms or embedded content. Browser choices do not delete information already sent to William Lawrence Camp or a provider, and unsubscribing from email does not change website tracking settings.

Children’s information

Parents and guardians should complete forms that request information about a camper. Children should ask a parent or guardian before sending personal information or a photograph through this website.

If you believe a child has provided personal information without appropriate adult involvement, contact the camp office so we can review and address it. A parent or guardian can also ask about information concerning their child.

Keeping and protecting information

William Lawrence Camp has not yet adopted a fixed retention schedule for website inquiries or Camp Family News submissions. How long information is kept depends on its purpose, follow-up needs, an ongoing camp relationship, publication permissions, and applicable recordkeeping requirements. Published camp news may remain in newsletter or website archives.

Contact the office to ask about a particular record or request deletion. Removing information from an active system may not immediately remove it from backups, email copies, or newsletters already distributed.

The website uses HTTPS to protect information in transit. No website, email system, or storage method can guarantee complete security. Please contact the office promptly if you have a concern about information you have shared.

Your choices and privacy requests

You can contact William Lawrence Camp to ask about information you have provided, correct your contact details, request access or deletion, change communication preferences, or change permission to publish your Camp Family News.

Tell us which record or submission your request concerns. We may need to verify your identity or your authority to act for a child. Some information may need to be retained for legal or recordkeeping reasons; we will explain any limits that apply to your request. Additional rights may depend on where you live and the laws that apply.
