(b) Anonymous usage data via cookies

We collect anonymised data about how visitors use this website through Google Analytics 4 (see Section 4 below). This does not identify you personally.

3. Photography and Video at Camp

We take photos and video at our camps and use them on our social channels (Facebook and Instagram) and on this website, to show what a camp day is actually like.

You can opt out when you book, using the checkbox on the booking form. If you change your mind at any time, email bookings@bournemouthballersholidayclub.com or call 07727 302099, and we will stop using new images of your child.

If a photo or video of your child is already published and you would like it removed, tell us and we will take it down.

We never publish a child's full name alongside their photo.
