BoatSetup.com
respects your PRIVACY. We have created this Privacy Statement to explain how and why we collect certain information online, and how we use that information. This statement also explains how you can prevent collection of certain information about yourself, if you choose.
BoatSetup.com will not collect or maintain your private and personally identifiable information without your consent. If you consent to give us your personal information, we will not disclose your personal information to any third party without your consent, unless we are compelled to do so under the law or to comply with a court order.
You are free to browse the BoatSetup.com site without submitting any personal information. We do not collect any of your personal information unless you register on our Bulletin Boards.
IF YOU ARE UNDER 13 YEARS OF AGE you are not allowed to participate in the BoatSetup.com forums, or to provide any personal information on our site.
Our Bulletin Boards are resident on OUR server and maintained by BoatSetup.com, not provided by a third party "free service". As such, your personal information remains in OUR domain.
In order to register, you must provide us with a username (which does not have to be your real name) and a valid e-mail address. Your password will be e-mailed to you. Once registration is verified, you may change your password. This allows us to protect our boards from abusive postings and provides a verifiable point of contact should legal questions arise. At any time, you have the ability to keep your e-mail address hidden from other users by selecting that option within your user profile. When you register, you have the option of providing some additional information such as occupation, interests, and homepage URL. This optional information is made available to other bulletin board users. If you have any concerns about providing this information, simply leave the fields blank and your registration will still be processed.
It is important for you to remain aware that when you provide personal information (e.g., last name, address, phone number) in a posting on any message board, that information is available to any other person or user having access and use of that message board, and may be used by someone in a manner unintended by you. For that reason, we discourage you from offering any personally identifying information within a posting to any message board.
Any personal information you provide to us in the course of asking questions about BoatSetup.com will be used only for the purposes for which it was submitted. We may store the information, but we will not use it for any other purposes or disclose it to any third parties.
BoatSetup.com uses the personal information it collects from forms you fill out on our site to:
1. Allow users to access our services
2. Supply users with instructions, access or use information, and technical support information
3. Improve our services by using statistical analysis and evaluation of user data. We use the anonymous information we collect from the other methods, such as cookie information, to collect broad demographic information about user trends, count the number of users of our services, to provide advertising services and to continue to enhance and improve our services. We do not and will not disclose your private, personally identifiable information to any third party for any purpose without your prior consent. However, BoatSetup.com reserves the right to disclose your personal information if required to do so by law, or in the good faith belief that such action is reasonably necessary to comply with legal process, respond to claims, or to protect the rights, property or safety of our company, its employees, customers, or the public. All reasonable care is taken by our staff in handling your personal information to ensure its security both offline and online.
