Privacy Policy

Grassroots Warrior Society
Effective Date: June 11, 2025

At Grassroots Warrior Society, we respect and honour your privacy. As an Indigenous-led grassroots movement, we are guided by the values of trust, respect, and responsibility — in our relationships with both people and the land.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website, sign up for our activities, or interact with us online or in person.

When you interact with Grassroots Warrior Society, we may collect:

• Personal information you provide:

  • Name, email address, phone number, and any information you submit through forms (such as sign-ups for events, camps, or volunteer opportunities).

  • If you apply for certain roles or activities (such as warrior training or camp participation), we may ask for additional information like emergency contacts or criminal record check consent.

• Automatically collected information:

  • Basic website analytics such as your IP address, browser type, and which pages you visit — used to improve our website and outreach.

  • We do not use invasive tracking technologies.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Communicate with you about events, calls to action, and news related to the Grassroots Warrior Society movement.

• Coordinate camps, direct actions, community gatherings, and land-based programming.

• Ensure safety and security for participants (e.g. through pre-screening where needed for camp roles).

• Improve our website and online presence to better serve our communities.

We will never sell your personal information or share it with third parties for profit. We only share data where necessary to operate our movement activities (such as coordinating camp logistics or emergency preparedness) and always in accordance with our values.

3. How We Protect Your Information

We take reasonable measures to protect your information:

• Access to personal information is limited to Grassroots Warrior Society organizers and trusted volunteers on a need-to-know basis.

• We store digital information on secure servers and take care to avoid unnecessary data retention.

Our website or movement communications may link to third-party websites (such as partner organizations or news articles). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external sites. We encourage you to review their policies before sharing personal information on those platforms.

6. Community Conduct & Cultural Protocol

As a movement rooted in Indigenous laws and teachings, we expect respect for individual privacy both online and offline. Any misuse of personal information within the community will be addressed in accordance with our values and guidance from our elders and leadership.

7. Updates to this Policy
