Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

Cape Croker Park is dedicated to safeguarding the privacy and confidentiality of our visitors’ personal information through our comprehensive privacy policy.

Below, our full Privacy Policy is outlined.

Cape Croker Park (Cape Croker Park, “we” or “us”) is committed to protecting the privacy of the personal information entrusted to us by our employees, volunteers, members, customers, visitors, donors, sponsors, and other stakeholders. This Cape Croker Park Privacy Policy applies to the collection and use by Cape Croker Park of information about identifiable individuals (“Personal Information”) collected by Cape Croker Park during its operations.

We value the trust of those we deal with, and of the public, and recognize that maintaining this trust requires that we be transparent and accountable in how we treat the information that you choose to share with us. Cape Croker Park employs reasonable administrative and technical measures to ensure the security of all the personal information that we collect, and our credit card processing systems are industry-compliant.

During the course of our various projects and activities, Cape Croker Park frequently gathers and uses personal information. Anyone from whom we collect such information should expect that it will be carefully protected and that any use of, or other dealing with, this information is subject to consent. Cape Croker Park’s privacy practices are designed to achieve this.

Defining personal information

Personal information is any information that can be used to distinguish, identify, or contact a specific individual. This information can include an individual’s opinions or beliefs, as well as facts about or related to the individual.

However, ‘personal information’ does not include business contact information or certain publicly available information, such as names, addresses, and telephone numbers as published in telephone directories, are not considered personal information. Information in the public domain is not subject to privacy legislation and as such is not included in this policy.

Where individuals use their home contact information as business contact information, Cape Croker Park considers that the contact information provided is business contact information and is not therefore subject to protection as personal information.

We consider donor and volunteer information always to be personal information and do not disclose information about donors or volunteers without consent.

Cape Croker Park observes the following practices when collecting, maintaining, and using personal information:

Consent

An individual’s consent is required regarding the collection and proposed use of personal information when information is collected. Consent can be either express or implied and can be provided directly by the individual or by an authorized representative. Express consent can be given orally, electronically, or in writing. Implied consent is consent that can reasonably be inferred from an individual’s action or inaction. An individual’s consent is required before confidential information is released to outside parties.

When personal information is provided to Cape Croker Park, consent is implied to Cape Croker Park’s collection, use, and disclosure of the personal information in accordance with this privacy policy. Withdrawal of consent to the collection, use, or disclosure of personal information can be made at any time by contacting our Privacy Officer, whose contact information may also be found on our Contact Us page. We will act on such requests promptly.

Children should use Cape Croker Park’s website only with the approval of a parent or guardian. In particular, a child under the age of 13 should not provide Cape Croker Park with any personal information unless his or her parent or guardian has consented to such disclosure. Cape Croker Park does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13.

The Rememberer

Are there bears here – what kind – how big – how many – what do they eat?

bears

Stories tell us that along time ago, Mkwa took care of the first Anishinaabe children, fed them and kept them warm. Another story tells us that each year during Mkwa Giizis or Bear Moon also known as February, bear cubs venture outside their cozy dens to play. If their play is brief, then winter will be long. If they stay out, then spring is fast approaching.

The bear is known as a healer and peacekeeper who taught our people about the medicines. Some of our people have bear names like Mkoons (Little Bear) or Mko-kwe (Bear Woman). Some of our people belong to the Mkwa Dodem (Bear Clan). Some people have bears as "spirit helpers."

Seeing a bears in a natural setting like out in a field or crossing the road somewhere is an exciting and memorable experience. However, this is not necessarily so in a campground or on someone’s deck. This is why we built garbage depots, purchased recycling bins and closed our dump. In doing so, we have given responsibility to our campers and visitors to help us keep bears safe. Bear is called The Rememberer because Bear always remembers where to find food.

Help us protect our bears and all other critters who share their world with us.

  1. Store food in your vehicle at night.
  2. Take your bagged garbage to the Garbage Depot every evening.
  3. Do not scrap your leftover food into the fire pit or around your campsite
  4. Wash out your recyclables before putting them into the bins.
  5. Keep your campsite clean.
  6. Day visitors please take your garbage and recyclables with you.

Our Park attendants will be around to encourage your continued assistance in keeping bears safe.
