Visitor Use Management Tool is:
A data controller of limited data about site visitors and account holders (i.e. we determine the purposes, conditions and means of the processing of personal data). Visitor Use Management Tool collects webpage analytics from unregistered and registered users of its webpage – pages visited, clicks, browser used, language choice, country of origin and so on. For registered users, Visitor Use Management Tool collects e-mail and basic information as part of the registration process and stores users’ preference in their profile. The application then collects and stores limited information about visits recorded by the users.
Visitor Use Management Tool takes very seriously the privacy, confidentiality and security of personal information and any data collected or stored using Visitor Use Management Tool.
Data under our control which includes site visitors data (website analytics) and registration data (username, password and profile) is used in aggregated ways to monitor usage and growth of Visitor Use Management Tool as well as visitor activity at locations configured in the system. Information about specific visits and visitors may be shared with the entities that own the places where visits are recorded. For example, reports may allow park rangers who manage a particular trailhead and nearby destinations to review visitors and contact information on a specific date in the same manner they presently can with a paper-based trail register. This enables us to report especially on visitor use at locations configured in the system. Personal information from registered users is used to provide services to registered users and communicate with registered users about our services. Registered users can view, edit, and delete their personal information stored in their profile, unregister from communication emails, or delete their account. Personal information is never shared or sold to third parties.
