Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 3, 2025 · Last updated: August 29, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to ilove.camp. This is Matt Kaufman's personal author site. I value your privacy, and this page explains what little information the site collects and what happens to it. By using this website you agree to this policy.

2. Information this site collects

This is a static website. It has no user accounts, no comments, and no community features. The only information it collects is what you choose to send:

  • If you use the contact form: your name, email address, and message.
  • If you subscribe to the newsletter: your email address.

The site sets no cookies of its own and runs no analytics or advertising trackers. Like nearly every website, the hosting provider that serves these pages keeps standard server logs (such as IP address and pages requested) for security and performance.

3. How your information is used

  • Contact-form messages come to me by email so I can reply to you.
  • Newsletter addresses are kept on a private list I maintain myself and are used only to send the newsletter. You can unsubscribe anytime by replying to any issue or emailing me.

I will never sell your personal information.

4. Who handles your information

Two service providers touch data on this site's behalf: the form service that relays contact-form and signup submissions to my inbox, and the hosting provider that serves the pages. Neither is permitted to use your information for anything else.

5. Data security

I take reasonable precautions to protect your information from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access. However, no website can guarantee 100% security.

6. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information, or to opt out of email communications. To make a request, email matt@ilove.camp.

7. Children's privacy

This site is written for adults working in and around the camp profession. It is not directed at children, and I do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted information here, email me and I will delete it promptly.

8. Third-party links

This site links to external sites such as social media and bookstores. I am not responsible for their privacy practices or content.

9. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with an updated date.
