WILDERNESS INQUIRY is committed to the security of your information.

Information We Automatically Collect

IP Address: We record IP addresses in the aggregate for monitoring the level of activity on our site. We do not link this to your information. We may also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer our website.

Browser Information: WILDERNESS INQUIRY tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. WILDERNESS INQUIRY does break down overall usage statistics according to a user’s domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user’s browser).

WILDERNESS INQUIRY tracks and catalogs the search terms that users enter in our search engines, but this tracking is not associated with individual users.

Via Registration Form: To process your registration, we require your name, address, phone number, email address, and credit card information.

In general, we will try to contact you first by email and only if that fails, or if time is critical, will we try to contact you by phone. We share this information, and only that information which is absolutely necessary, with those third parties that are involved in the processing of your registration or the fulfillment of your trip experience. For example, the financial institution that issued your credit card and the staff members who will be leading your trip or event.
