Applicable Laws and Arbitration: We control and operate the Site from our offices in the United States of America. We do not represent that materials on the Site are appropriate for use in other locations. Persons who choose to access the Site from other locations do so on their own initiative, and are responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable. All parties to these terms and conditions waive their respective rights to a trial by jury. The exclusive means of resolving any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions (including any alleged breach thereof) or the Site will be BINDING ARBITRATION administered by the American Arbitration Association. The one exception to the exclusivity of arbitration is that you have the right to bring an individual claim against us in a small-claims court of competent jurisdiction. But whether you choose arbitration or small-claims court, you may not under any circumstances commence or maintain against us any class action, class arbitration, or other representative action or proceeding. The laws of the State of Pennsylvania will govern these Terms of Use, as well as any claim that might arise between you and us, without regard to any conflict of law provisions.

Regarding claims:

(a) By sending to camp, you agree to the above arbitration agreement. In doing so, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend any claims between you and us (except for matters that may be taken to small-claims court). YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER CLASS PROCEEDING. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. You are entitled to a fair hearing before the arbitrator. The arbitrator can grant any relief that a court can, but you should note that arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons. For details on the arbitration process, see our Arbitration Procedures .

(b) Any proceeding to enforce this arbitration agreement, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, may be commenced in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the event that this arbitration agreement is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against us (except for small-claims court actions) may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. You hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes. These Terms and Conditions, and any dispute between you and us, will be governed by the laws of the State of Pennsylvania without regard to principles of conflicts of law, provided that this arbitration agreement will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

Termination: We may terminate, change, suspend or discontinue any aspect of the Site or the Site’s products or services at any time. We may restrict, suspend or terminate your access to the Site and/or its products or services if we believe you are in breach of these Terms and Conditions or applicable law, you are a repeat infringer of intellectual property rights, or for any other reason without notice or liability.

Changes to Terms of Use: We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify any portion of these Terms and Conditions at any time. Changes in these Terms and Conditions will be effective when posted. Your continued use of the Site and/or the products or services offered on or through the Site after any changes to these Terms and Conditions are posted will be considered acceptance of those changes.

Communication: If you provide us your email address, you agree and consent to receive email messages from us. These emails may be transactional or relationship communications relating to the products or services we offer, such as administrative notices and service announcements or changes, or emails containing commercial offers, promotions or special offers from us. You also may sign up, and therefore agree, to receive SMS or text messages on your mobile phone.

Consent Forms: Enrollment for camp is completed online (by clicking the “Enroll Now!” button on the website).  When enrolling, you must complete the entire Camper Enrollment Form for each child, which contains a consent form that must be signed by the parent and/or legal guardian of the camper.  If you enrolled over the phone, our office will start your enrollment, but you still need to complete your enrollment online, which includes completing/submitting the Camper Enrollment Form.  If you do not complete our consent form but send your child to camp, this is considered implied consent to the terms and conditions listed in our consent form. If you are having trouble accessing online enrollment, you must print the consent form and scan/email it to Info@lavnercamps.com prior to your child attending camp. By signing the consent form, families understand that if Lavner Camps is unable to hold camp at a camp location, it may, at its sole discretion, offer camp at another location or through e-learning. The consent form constitutes the entire agreement and no section of the consent form may be waived by any other writings or methods of communication.

Assumption of Risk: I understand that there are potential dangers incidental to my child’s participation in camp, some of which may be dangerous and which may expose my child to the risk of personal injuries, property damage and illness. I knowingly and voluntarily assume all such risks, both known and unknown, even from the acts or omissions of the Releasees and assume full responsibility for my child’s participation in camp. 

Behavioral Policy: Lavner Camps reserves the absolute right to dismiss a camper without refund for any behavior (1) that threatens or endangers the welfare and/or the safety of any camper, instructor, or any other person involved with the camp, (2) is disruptive to the overall camp environment, which interferes with the beneficial use and enjoyment by campers and staff, or (3) for any form of bullying of other campers or disrespectful behavior to camp authority. Lavner Camps emphasizes a safe, fun, and healthy camp environment that fosters learning and friendship, and appropriate camp behavior is essential to a great overall experience for everyone involved.  It is imperative that every camper feels included, safe, and part of our camp community.
Campers must be potty trained in order to attend camp. A potty trained camper is someone who can 1) communicate to an instructor that he/she needs to go to the restroom, 2) be able to stop what he/she is doing, to go and use the restroom, 3) utilize the restroom facilities without any assistance and 4) postpone going to the bathroom for up to 10 minutes if they must wait for someone who is in the restroom or if they are not near a restroom. In accordance with the American with Disabilities Act, reasonable accommodations will be made for campers with disabilities.

Storing Payment Information Electronically: I consent that Lavner Education, Inc.’s designated third party gateway can store my payment information.

 Physical Examination: I certify that within the past 12 months my child has had a physical examination by a licensed physician and that all immunizations required by school are current, that he/she is physically able to participate in all camp activities at Lavner Camps, and that I will submit the physical (which can be the health form provided to your child’s school for the current school year) by uploading the health form to my online account or scanning and emailing it to: info@lavnercampsandprograms.com. If my child has not had a physical within the past 12 months by a licensed physician, I certify that my child will get a physical by a licensed physician and that I will upload the health form from this licensed physician to my online account and/or scan/email it to Info@lavnercampsandprograms.com.

2024 Cancellations & Change of Week Policies

Cancellation Policy:
If you cancel your child’s camp week(s) with written notice by email to info@lavnercamps.com prior to March 1, 2024, you are entitled to either a 100% refund of camp tuition or a 100% credit in your Lavner Education account for amounts you have already paid. Due to the significant costs throughout the year to prepare for the summer camps and to run summer camp, if you cancel your child’s camp week(s) with written notice by email to info@lavnercamps.com between March 1st, 2024, and June 1st, 2024, we do not offer refunds, but you can receive a 100% credit to your Lavner Education account for payments that you have already made. Lavner Education credits can be used towards (1) alternative camp weeks during the 2024 or 2025 summer, (2) registering for our 2024 Virtual Summer Tech Camps through Tech Revolution Online, and/or (3) by signing up for 1-on-1 tutoring through Lavner IQ, our online tutoring academy, during the 2024 year. These credits are non-refundable. We do not offer refunds or camp credits for any cancellations made after June 1st, 2024. However, you will have the option to change your child’s camp week to another week in 2024 by using our Change of Week policy below. The term ‘camp’ refers to one-week camp, not the entire camp season. All cancellation notifications must be made to our office via email to info@lavnercamps.com. Should events beyond our control including, but not limited to, any fire, act of God, hurricane, tornado, flood, extreme inclement weather, explosion, war or armed conflict, governmental action, act of terrorism, risk of infectious disease, epidemic, pandemic, shortage or disruption of necessary utilities, or any other event beyond our control prevent us from running camp in-person, Lavner Education has the discretion to modify its curriculum, schedules, length of camp day or week, and/or means of learning and teaching methods, including offering camp online with live instructors. If we shift to a virtual tech camp model, campers will automatically be scheduled for the same camps, dates and times as already enrolled. If you prefer not to take advantage of the virtual camp model, you may request a 100% credit to your Lavner Education account which can be used towards in-person camps in Summer 2024 if they later become available during the summer and there is availability or in Summer 2025. These credits are non-refundable.

Change of Camp Weeks:
If you would like to change your child’s camp week(s), you may do so free of charge if you provide us with at least 30 days written notice to info@lavnercamps.com prior to the start of the camp week. Any requests made within 30 days of the start of the camp week will incur a $40 change of week fee (per camp week). The new camp or camp dates requested are subject to availability. We do our best to accommodate all requests. A change of camp pertains to either a change of dates, change of camp, change of location, or change of virtual session time. All change requests must be made by the Tuesday (5:00pm ET) prior to the upcoming camp week. A difference in camp tuition may apply. Refunds are not issued for campers who switch into a less expensive camp. Change of weeks can only be made within the same summer (i.e., a camp week in Summer 2024 can only be changed to another camp week in 2024).

    Make sure your Camper’s first name or nickname (only) appears on the screen.  This will help us get your child into their camp breakout room quicker.
    Sign in to your Zoom call 15 minutes early. Camp sessions begin at 9am, 1pm, and 5pm Eastern Time, but we may let you in earlier to speed up the check in process. We will get you in as quickly as possible.
    Download the required software downloaded prior to sign in! This information is listed in the Welcome Letter we send you leading up to each camp week. If you need additional assistance on Monday, our Tech Team is ready and waiting to help 30 minutes prior to camp. Sign in early and we will be sure to check in with each family to see if assistance is needed.
    Late additions and changes to our registration lists happen! It may take us a few minutes to locate where your child needs to be. We appreciate your patience and will get your camper to the correct spot as soon as we can.

    • Encourage your camper to ask for help if his or her computer isn’t cooperating. We have a fabulous and very knowledgeable IT team who can help with technical problems that arise.
    • Our goal is to provide a child-directed camp experience, where our campers communicate directly with their instructors. This means that questions and participation in camp should be through our campers. As parents, if you would like to ask a question or make a suggestion, please contact our camp director directly so they can help. Your Camp Director’s email is listed in the Welcome Letter that you receive and you can email them with your questions during the camp day.

Children’s Privacy Policy

The Lavner Education programs are intended for children of all ages and their families, some of which may include programs and activities that collect personal information from children under the age of 13 (“Child” or “Children”).  This Children’s Privacy Policy (“Policy”) is in accordance with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), and outlines our practices in the United States regarding Children’s personal information.  

Information We Collect From Children and How We Use It

If you enroll your Child in an online virtual camp, we collect the Child’s first name and any personal information that they provide during the virtual camp session.  We use the information collected to provide the services requested, namely to provide our virtual camps and educational programs.  

The virtual camp sessions may be recorded, in whole or in part, for quality assurance purposes, to facilitate the safety of a Child, or to enable us to take precautions against liability.  The recordings will not be shared except as stated below and will not be used for marketing purposes.

When Information is Available to Others

Virtual camps are conducted using video conference services such as Zoom.  You should be aware that any information your Child provides during the video conference will be made publicly available to others participating in virtual camp or other persons who may be in the same household as other camp participants.  This includes any information provided using the Chat feature.  The Child’s first name will also be displayed to other participating campers.  Parents should carefully supervise their Children when they participate in these online activities.

In addition to the personal information your Child shares during the virtual camp session, we may share or disclose personal information collected from Children in a limited number of instances, including the following:

  • We may share information with our service providers if necessary for them to support our “internal operations” (as defined by COPPA), including activities necessary for the site or service to maintain or analyze its functioning; perform network communications; authenticate users or personalize content; protect the security or integrity of the user, website, or online service; ensure legal or regulatory compliance; or fulfill a request of a child as permitted under COPPA.
  • We may disclose personal information if permitted or required by law, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we also may disclose personal information collected from Children (i) in response to a law enforcement or public agency’s (including schools or children services) request; (ii) if we believe disclosure may prevent the instigation of a crime, facilitate an investigation related to public safety or protect the safety of a child using our sites or applications; (iii) to protect the security or integrity of our sites, applications, and other technology, as well as the technology of our service providers; or (iv) enable us to take precautions against liability.
  • As otherwise permitted or required by COPPA or other applicable law.

Parental Choices and Controls

We will not require a Child to disclose more information than is reasonably necessary to participate in an activity. If you are a parent or guardian, you can review or have deleted your Child’s personal information, and refuse to permit further collection or use of your Child’s personal information. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us by emailing info@lavnercamps.com or calling (888) 854-2267.
