This Privacy Policy applies to information about you that Scientific Anglers (“Scientific Anglers”, “we”, “our”, “us”) may obtain when you visit scientificanglers.com and www.scientificanglersb2b.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy describes how we may collect, use, or disclose information about you; your choices regarding our use of your information; how we safeguard such information; and how you may contact us regarding our privacy practices.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Personal Information You Provide
We may collect personal information (including name, address, telephone number, email address, and payment information) when you:
Information Collected Automatically
We, and our vendors, may use various tools and technologies like cookies, web beacons, and web server logs to collect information automatically on the Site. This information may include IP addresses, device identifiers, browser characteristics, operating system details, internet service provider details, and details about your use of the Site (referring URLs, time and length of visits, and pages viewed).
“Cookies” are small data files stored by your web browser on your computer. Cookies may allow a website to recognize a user’s device, record user preferences, track the pages a user clicks on while visiting the website, and identify the website visited immediately beforehand. Most web browsers accept cookies by default, but you may be able to adjust your browser settings to remove or reject cookies. Please note that blocking cookies may affect the availability and functionality of this Site and other websites. Also, disabling cookies may invalidate opt outs that use cookies to recognize devices that have opted out.
We may combine certain automatically collected information with other information we obtain about you, which may include data we obtain from third parties.
Please note that we or third parties may collect personal information about your online activities over time and across different devices and online properties when you use the Site.
Your web browser may have settings that allow you to transmit a “Do Not Track” signal when you visit various websites or use online services. Like many websites, the Site is not designed to respond to “Do Not Track” signals received from browsers.
We may use third-party technology and vendors, such as Google, in connection with your activity on the Site to help us understand and analyze how visitors use the Site and to serve ads on our behalf across the Internet.
For more information on how Google Analytics uses data it collects, visit policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. To opt out of Google Analytics, visit tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We may use your personal information to:
DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We may disclose your personal information to affiliates, business partners, vendors (e.g., payment processors, shippers, sweepstakes promoters, and website developers), and other parties.
In the event of a business transaction, such as if we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets (e.g., further to a merger, reorganization, liquidation, or any other business transaction, including negotiations of such transactions), we reserve the right to disclose any information we obtain through the Site.
In addition, we may disclose your personal information if we are required to do so by law or we believe that such action is necessary to:
SOCIAL FEATURES
The Site may permit you to interact with social media platforms operated by unaffiliated parties, for example, to “like” Scientific Anglers or to share content from the Site on those platforms (“Social Features”). If you choose to “like” or share content or post information using Social Features, that information may be publicly displayed, and the party operating the other platform may receive certain information about you and your use of the Site. Similarly, if you interact with us through Social Features (e.g., if you “like” or “follow” our page on another platform), we may have access to information about you from that platform. Please note that if you mention or comment about Scientific Anglers or our Site in your post on another platform, that platform may allow us to publish your post on our Site. In addition, we may receive information about you if a user on a social media platform gives us access to their profile and you are one of their connections, or information about you is otherwise accessible through that other user. You should review the terms, policies, and settings of these other platforms to learn more about their data practices and/or adjust your settings.
YOUR CHOICES
Communications Preferences
We offer choices about the types of information you receive from us. If you no longer wish to receive our email newsletter, you may unsubscribe using the link provided in each edition of the email.
Accessing, Reviewing & Changing Your Personal Information
Registered users can review and change certain personal information (e.g., name, address, telephone number, email address, and payment information) at any time by accessing their account on the Site.
LINKS TO OTHER SITES
Occasionally, we may provide links on our Site to other websites we think you will enjoy. These sites operate independently of Scientific Anglers and have established their own privacy and security policies. Scientific Anglers does not have any control over, and is not responsible for, these websites’ privacy practices. For the best online experience, we strongly encourage you to review these policies on any site you visit.
SECURITY
We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from loss, theft, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Nevertheless, transmission via the Internet and online digital storage are not completely secure, so we cannot guarantee the security of your information collected through the Site.
INFORMATION FOR USERS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
Please be aware that any personal information you submit will be transferred to and processed in the United States and the data protection laws and regulations that apply to your personal information may be different from the laws in your country of residence.
CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have obtained personal information from a child under age 13 we will delete such information in accordance with applicable law.
POLICY CHANGES
This Privacy Policy is subject to change at our discretion. We will indicate changes to the Privacy Policy by updating the “Effective Date” at the beginning of the Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this Site after any update to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of the changes.
