1.How we use your information
We will use the information we collect for the following purposes:
A. Website Operation and Maintenance: Ensuring the website functions properly, securely, and efficiently.
B. Website Traffic Analysis and User Experience Improvement: Understanding how users interact with our website, identifying popular content, and making improvements based on usage patterns (primarily using Google Analytics data).
C. Responding to Your Inquiries and Providing Services: If personally identifiable information is collected through forms, it will be used to communicate with you, resolve your issues, or fulfill your requests (e.g., sending newsletters).
D. Complying with Legal Obligations: Complying with any applicable legal or regulatory requirements.
2. The Legal Basis of Information
We process your information based on the following legal grounds:
A. Legitimate Interests: For non-personally identifiable information collected through the Google Sites platform and Google Analytics (e.g., website operation, security, traffic analysis). These activities are necessary to provide and improve our website services and do not unduly affect your privacy.
B. Your Consent: For personally identifiable information you voluntarily provide (e.g., through contact forms), or for certain types of cookies and tracking technologies (e.g., non-essential analytics cookies) as required by law. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.
C. Legal Obligations: When processing is to comply with our legal obligations.
3. Information sharing and disclosure with Google
Because our website is hosted on Google Sites and uses Google Analytics, certain data is processed by Google. This data processing follows Google's Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review Google's Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) for full details of its data processing practices.
A. Important: Please note that Google Analytics data processing follows Google's terms and is not subject to the Google Workspace Data Processing Amendments. This means that Google processes Analytics data according to its own terms, and our direct control over Google's use of this data is limited to the settings within Google Analytics.
B. Legal Requirement: We may disclose your information if required by law, a court order, or in response to a valid legal process or enforceable government request.
C. Business Transfer: If Silent Camp is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred to the acquiring entity, but our continued commitment to privacy will remain.
D. We Do Not Sell Your Personal Information: We are committed to protecting your privacy. We will not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. This commitment is not only about legal compliance, but also about proactively building user trust. In the current privacy environment, the "sale" of personal data is a major concern for users, and many privacy regulations also focus on it. Even though the "Camp Tranquil" website does not currently engage in any data monetization activities that constitute a "sale," explicitly stating this commitment (which is consistent with Google's own policies) proactively addresses key public concerns and builds a stronger foundation of user trust.
4. Cookies and Tracking Technology
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer or mobile device) when you visit the website. They are widely used to enable the website to function properly or more efficiently, and to provide reporting information.
B. Types of Cookies We Use
a. Necessary Cookies: These cookies are absolutely necessary for the operation of the Google Sites platform and for you to browse the website and use its features. Without these cookies, the website may not function properly.
b. Analytics/Performance Cookies: These cookies are used by Google Analytics (e.g., _ga cookies) to collect information about how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited most frequently and whether they receive error messages from web pages. This information is aggregated and anonymous to help us improve the performance of the website.
c. How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences: Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually set your browser to reject all or some browser cookies, or to notify you when the website sets or accesses cookies.

A. Data Processed by Google
Information processed by Google (such as through Google Sites operations or Google Analytics) is retained in accordance with Google's data retention policy. Google's policy varies depending on the type of data and your Google account settings. Some data is automatically deleted after a set period (e.g., 18 months for "Web & App Activity"), while other data is retained until you delete it or for longer periods for legitimate business or legal purposes.
B. Data Collected Directly by Website Owners (where applicable)
Any personally identifiable information (PII) that we collect directly (such as through contact forms) will only be retained for the time necessary for the purpose for which it was collected (e.g., in response to your inquiry). Once the purpose is achieved, or if you request deletion, we will securely delete or anonymize your data unless required or permitted by law for a longer retention period.
We are committed to protecting your information. While no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure, we have implemented reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. Google Sites offer inherent security features, such as SSL certificates and robust infrastructure, which contribute to the overall security of the site. We also have appropriate safeguards in place for any materials under our direct control.
