I understand that protecting the privacy, dignity, and safety of the children, families, and individuals we encounter while volunteering with Traveling with a Purpose (TAP) is extremely important.
I agree to be respectful and thoughtful when taking photographs or videos and understand that not every person, interaction, or situation is appropriate to photograph. I will follow any photography or privacy restrictions established by TAP, its partner organizations, children's homes, schools, community organizations, or other service sites we visit.
I understand that particular care must be taken when interacting with and photographing children, especially children living in children's homes or other residential care settings. A child's presence at a children's home, their personal circumstances, family history, or other information about why they are receiving care is private and should never be disclosed through photographs, captions, social media posts, or conversations without appropriate authorization.
I will not photograph, record, post, share, or distribute content that could compromise an individual's privacy, dignity, or safety. I will not share full names, personal information, specific location information, personal histories, or other identifying details without appropriate permission. Photos and videos should always portray individuals respectfully and with dignity and should never exploit, embarrass, demean, or unnecessarily expose someone in a vulnerable situation.
These expectations apply to all TAP trips, service locations, children's homes, partner organizations, community activities, and excursions. I understand that individual sites may have additional or more restrictive photography and privacy requirements, and I agree to follow those requirements at all times. I am responsible for following these expectations when using my personal phone, camera, social media accounts, messaging platforms, or any other means of capturing or sharing content.
