ARCHELON would like to ensure you that the Society’s volunteers’ and supporters’ personal data are used exclusively either for their participation in its field projects or for the shipping of financial support packages.

These data are not communicated, under no circumstances, to any third natural or legal person and they are deleted 2 years after their registration (or even sooner, after specific request).

After 2 years, the only data remaining in ARCHELON’s database is the email address of the participants, in order to provide information on its activities.

Personal data such as sex, nationality and age are only used for statistical conclusion purposes. In case of malicious violation of ARCHELON’S database, under any circumstances, the volunteers and supporters will be informed with utmost urgency. For any questions regarding this issue, please don’t hesitate to contact the Volunteers Officer  (volunteers@archelon.gr) or the Supporters Officer (info@archelon.gr).

As a volunteer you give permission to ARCHELON to use any photographs/videos you are included in during your duties/shifts and while you are wearing a volunteer t-shirts (taken during your period of participation). This material will be used either for future volunteer campaigns or for ARCHELON publications.

• Every participant in the ARCHELON projects must have a valid certificate of vaccination or recovery from COVID-19, which must cover the whole period of their participation. Citizens of the EU are invited to present their European Certificate of Vaccination.
• Everyone arriving at the ARCHELON camps or the Rescue Center, either from abroad or from Greece, must present a negative result in a molecular detection test of COVID-19 (PCR), done within 72 hours before their arrival. The test results must be forwarded by e-mail to the Volunteer Officer, before the volunteer arrives. No one will be able to participate in the projects if the above are not observed.
• If, unluckily, the pre-arrival COVID-19 test comes out positive, the volunteer should contact the Volunteer Officer so that their participation can be rescheduled or canceled.
• Once the volunteers arrive at the camp or Rescue Center, they should remain in self-isolation for 3 days, wearing a face mask and using the designated areas carefully. Other team members will take care of their supplies, food, etc. On the 4th day, they should perform a self- test and it the test results are negative they will begin their participation.
• In the camps of ARCHELON and in the Rescue Center it is obligatory to apply social distancing and disinfection of spaces and hands and the use of a face mask as required by the public health measures in effect.
• If, unluckily, the post-isolation COVID-19 test comes out positive, the volunteer should remain in self isolation until their test come out negative (up to 2 weeks). The space for their self-isolation will be sought at first in the camp site or the Rescue Centre and, if deemed necessary, in other premises, following the guidance of the health authorities.
• If any participant tests positive during the project, medical advice and guidance from the public health authorities will be sought. The whole team will be checked and asked to be extremely careful to avoid the spread of the virus.
