Privacy Policy

January 2020

Here is a brief statement of what we, a small heritage foundation in Canada’s first national park, will and won’t do with your information.

Your Information

When you register for updates through this website, you give us information that we collect. Giving us this information means you consent to your information being acquired, used, disclosed and stored by us as described in this Policy.

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to help us understand the interests of site visitors and to help you navigate. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. You can also set your browser to turn off cookies. We are doing our best to ensure our site works without the use of cookies.

How We Use Your Information

We will use your information to keep you informed. If you opt out, that’s fine. You may unsubscribe or change your email address at any time.

Protecting your privacy is an important to us. We will never sell lists or email addresses. Above all, we’d rather have a personal relationship with you than a formal relationship built around data analysis and legal compliance.

How We Store Your Information

Your information may be stored in physical or electronic files. Our electronic files are protected by passwords and other security measures. They are accessible only by people who require the information to do work that we have directed them to do. Likewise, physical files are protected in a manner appropriate to the sensitivity of the information and are accessible only when required.

Two More Things

To the best of our understanding, this Policy is consistent with the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) as well as Alberta’s Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA).  If we make any changes to this Privacy Policy, we will post them here, on our website. Any changes will be effective as of the date we post them.

Lastly, Social Media

We use social media as another tool to share information and build relationships with our stakeholders. Social media accounts are public, not hosted on our servers. They have their own terms of service and privacy policies which you should review if you have questions about how your personal information is used via these channels.

Stay Up To Date

Be part of the heritage projects initiated by Bowstrings Banff and its partners.

The information you provide will only be used to share stories and project updates, and invite your feedback.
We will respect your privacy, and your inbox. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Banff has long been a place where early peoples came in peace to the foot of Sacred Buffalo Guardian Mountain by the Holy Springs. In the spirit of respect, reciprocity, and truth, we honour and acknowledge the deep and enduring memory of this valley held by Ktunaxa, Secwepemc, Métis, Dene & Tsuut’ina, Mountain Cree, Siksika & other Blackfoot, and Stoney Nakoda peoples. We acknowledge both the Treaty of 1877, Treaty Seven, and the Treaty of 1895 between the salmon and buffalo peoples. We are grateful to live here and live together with all our relations.
