This privacy policy has been compiled to better serve those who are concerned
with how their 'Personally identifiable information' (PII) is being used online.
PII, as used in US privacy law and information security, is information that can
be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a
single person, or to identify an individual in context. Please read our privacy
policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how we collect, use, protect or
otherwise handle your Personally Identifiable Information in accordance with our
website.
What personal information do we collect from the people that visit our
blog, website or app?
When registering with our app, or on our website, you will be asked to enter
your email address, and a password, to create an account. An account is
required to use the app, in order to protect our servers, and to help customize
your experience, and allow you to preserve your data when upgrading your phone.
If you choose to allow the app to access your location, you will get the most
functionality from the app. By doing so, we will collect the current date, time
and your location when you save your catches. If you take a photo for your
catch, we will collect this information as well, so that you can restore this
information when upgrading your phone, or view it on our companion website.
When do we collect information?
We collect information from you when you register on our site, when saving your
catches, and when taking photos within the application.
How do we use your information?
We may use the information we collect from you when you register, sign up for
our newsletter, respond to a survey or marketing communication, surf the website,
or use certain other site features in the following ways:
• To personalize the user
experience.
• To allow us to better
service you in responding to your customer service requests.
• To administer a contest,
promotion, survey or other site feature.
• To send periodic emails
regarding your order or other products and services.
How do we protect visitor information?
We do not use vulnerability scanning and/or scanning to PCI standards.
Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only
accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such
systems, and are required to keep the information confidential. In addition, all
sensitive information you supply is encrypted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
technology.
Do we use 'cookies' on our website?
Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to
your computer's hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables
the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture
and remember certain information. For instance, we use cookies to help us
remember your State selection when navigating between pages on our website. They
are also used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current
site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use
cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction
so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.
We use cookies to:
• Understand and save user's
preferences for future visits.
You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent,
or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your web browser
settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your
browser's Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies.
If you disable cookies, some features of our website may be unavailable.
Third Party Disclosure
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally
identifiable information unless we provide you with advance notice. This does
not include website hosting partners and other parties who assist us in
operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as
those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release
your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law,
enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others' rights, property, or
safety.
However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to
other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
Third party links
Occasionally, at our discretion, we may include or offer third party products or
services on our website. These third party sites have separate and independent
privacy policies. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the
content and activities of these linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect
the integrity of our site and welcome any feedback about these sites.
California Online Privacy Protection Act
CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and
online services to post a privacy policy. The law's reach stretches well beyond
California to require a person or company in the United States (and conceivably
the world) that operates websites collecting personally identifiable information
from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website
stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom
it is being shared, and to comply with this policy. - See more at: http://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/#sthash.0FdRbT51.dpuf
According to CalOPPA we agree to the following:
• Users can visit our site anonymously
• Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page,
or as a minimum on the first significant page after entering our website.
• Our Privacy Policy link includes the word 'Privacy', and can be easily be found
on the page specified above.
• Users will be notified of any privacy policy changes:
• On our Privacy Policy
Page
• Users are able to change their personal information:
• By emailing us
• By calling us
How does our site handle do not track signals?
We honor do not track signals and do not track, plant cookies, or use
advertising when a Do Not Track (DNT) browser mechanism is in place.
Does our site allow third party behavioral tracking?
It's also important to note that we do not allow third party behavioral tracking
COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under 13,
the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control.
The Federal Trade Commission, the nation's consumer protection agency, enforces
the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services
must do to protect children's privacy and safety online.
We do not specifically market to children under 13.
Fair Information Practices
The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in
the United States and the concepts they include have played a significant role
in the development of data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the
Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is
critical to comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal
information.
In order to be in line with Fair Information Practices we will take the
following responsive action, should a data breach occur:
We will notify the users via email
• Within 1 business day
We also agree to the individual redress principle, which requires that
individuals have a right to pursue legally enforceable rights against data
collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires
not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also
that individuals have recourse to courts or a government agency to investigate
and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.
CAN SPAM Act
The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes
requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails
stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.
We collect your email address in order to:
• Send information, respond
to inquiries, and/or other requests or questions.
• Market to our mailing
list or continue to send emails to our clients after the original registration
has occurred.
To be accordance with CANSPAM we agree to the following:
• NOT use false, or
misleading subjects or email addresses
• Identify the message as
an advertisement in some reasonable way
• Include the physical
address of our business or site headquarters
• Monitor third party email
marketing services for compliance, if one is used.
• Honor opt-out/unsubscribe
requests quickly
• Allow users to
unsubscribe by using the link at the bottom of each email
If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails, you
can
• Follow the instructions
at the bottom of each email.
