  • PolarExplorers Privacy Policy

    At PolarExplorers we respect the privacy of our clients and their personal information. We collect the minimum amount of data needed to respond to a request for information or to register someone on our expeditions.

    The data we collect, including medical data and other personal data, is only provided to people who need to have it for the safety and success of the expedition.

    We collect data typically via online forms, electronic forms and hard copy paper forms. The security of the forms is as strong as the email servers and the online servers used to create and transmit the forms (that includes your email server). We think it's smart to assume that anything online can be breached, and therefore, we can make any form available through PDF or hard copy which you can fill out by hand and send by post or by fax to us. Just let us know.

    We may also collect information regarding the use of our website, including, for example, traffic volume, frequency of visits, etc. 

    Client information is never shared or sold for commercial purposes.

    People who supply PolarExplorers with their email addresses may receive periodic emails about upcoming expeditions, etc. Upon request we will immediately cease sending these updates and offers.

    Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns about your privacy.

    Thank you!

  • Responsibilities of PolarExplorers (that's us):

    PolarExplorers exists to help people achieve their dreams of travel within the polar regions. We will work closely with each team member to achieve individual and team goals. PolarExplorers is the polar division of The Northwest Passage, Inc. The Northwest Passage, Inc.,(dba PolarExplorers) and its employees, agents, outfitters, and owners act only as the agent for certain providers such as hotels, transportation companies, landoperators and suppliers of travel services and their owners, contractors and suppliers.

  • PolarExplorers reserves the right to alter or omit without notice any part of the itinerary, including lodging and expedition/trip leadership. Should there be insufficient participation in any trip or should circumstances beyond our control arise, PolarExplorers reserves the right to withdraw the trip. We will make every attempt to accommodate you on another trip. PolarExplorers reserves the right to alter prices and dates listed in our material. Air packages may also be altered at any time to accommodate international influences. PolarExplorers is not responsible for any expenses incurred by trip members such as equipment purchase, medical costs, trip cancellation and evacuation insurance, air ticket cancellation penalties, etc.

  • Responsibilities of Participants (that’s you!)

    All adventure has many elements of risk. The risks on a polar expedition include, but in no way are limited to: flying in charter aircraft in very remote regions, cold weather injuries and illnesses including hypothermia and frostbite, falling, sunburn, snow blindness, falling in open water, moving ice, collision, overturning dogsleds, snowmobile accidents, altitude sickness, etc. Be sure you are willing and prepared to assume all risks associated with the trip and the activity before joining us. All participants are required to read, be certain that they understand and, if they agree to fully assume all the risks involved, sign a waiver at the time of applying releasing PolarExplorers from any liability resulting from participation in any given trip.

  • Participants must make any medical problems (physical and mental) and any dietary restrictions known to us when they register. Participants with known medical difficulties must provide their doctor’s written permission to participate. Participants should take care of any pending medical or dental problems prior to departure and must supply their own medical needs including medication for 21 days longer than the duration of the trip. The trip leader has the right to disqualify anyone at any time during the trip ifhe or she feels the trip member is physically incapable and/or if the trip member’s continued participation will jeopardize that individual or the group. Neither refunds nor credits are given under such circumstances. Trip participants must choose a trip that is appropriate to their interests and abilities, must bring appropriate clothing and equipment as advised by PolarExplorers, and are responsible for following normal social behavior patterns with fellow trip members as well as maintaining normal standards of personal hygiene. Should it become necessary, PolarExplorers will arrange or supply medical treatment, evacuation or any other emergency service on your behalf and at your expense, as PolarExplorers deems essential for your safety and well being.
