Privacy Policy

Last updated: [date]

1. What we collect

When you use our contact or booking forms, we collect the information you provide directly: name, email address, phone number, and any booking details (preferred date, vessel class, group size, notes).

2. How we use it

We use this information to respond to inquiries, confirm bookings, process payments, and communicate with you about your rental. We do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

3. Cookies & analytics

This site does not currently use third-party advertising cookies or tracking pixels. If we add analytics tools (e.g. Google Analytics) in the future, this section will be updated to disclose them, along with any required cookie consent mechanism.

4. Data retention

We retain booking and contact information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including recordkeeping for tax, accounting, and insurance purposes, and in accordance with applicable California record-retention requirements. You may request deletion of your information at any time, subject to our legal obligation to retain certain records.

5. Categories of personal information we collect

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, the categories of personal information we collect include: Identifiers (name, email address, phone number); Commercial information (booking history, vessel class rented, transaction details); and, if you contact us by phone, audio information incidental to that call. We do not knowingly collect biometric information, precise geolocation, or sensitive personal information as defined by California law.

6. Sources of personal information

We collect personal information directly from you, through our contact and booking forms, phone calls, and email correspondence. We do not purchase personal information from data brokers.

7. Business purposes for collection

We collect and use personal information to: provide and manage rental bookings; communicate with you before, during, and after your rental; process payments and deposits; comply with legal and insurance recordkeeping obligations; and improve our services.

8. Sharing of personal information

We do not sell personal information, as that term is defined under the CCPA/CPRA. We may share limited personal information with service providers who help us operate our business (for example, email or payment processing providers), solely to perform services on our behalf and under contractual confidentiality obligations.

9. Your California privacy rights

If you are a California resident, you have the right to:

To exercise any of these rights, contact us via our contact page. We will respond within 45 days, as required by California law (extendable by an additional 45 days when reasonably necessary).

10. Shine the Light

California Civil Code §1798.83 permits California residents to request information about disclosures of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not share personal information with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

11. Children's privacy

Our booking services are intended for adults 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and we do not sell the personal information of minors under 16.

12. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the information you provide, but no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
