Introduction
Gear Steady Boat (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website located at gearsteadyboat.com. Your privacy is paramount to us, and this Privacy Policy outlines the types of personal information we collect from you, how we use it, and the steps we take to ensure that it is protected.
Information Collection and Use
We collect information from you when you register on our site, place an order, subscribe to a newsletter, or fill out a form. The information collected may include your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, and payment details. This information is used to process transactions, deliver products, provide customer service, send periodic emails related to your order or services, and improve the overall user experience on our website.
Data Encryption and Security
We understand how crucial it is to keep your personal information safe, and we take strict measures to ensure its security. We promise never to sell your personal or payment information to any third-party entities. If you wish to modify or delete your personal information, please contact us directly. Our website is equipped with an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate, which establishes a secure encrypted connection between your web browser and our server. This means that all information transmitted, including your personal and payment details, is encrypted, making it impossible for third parties to intercept or access it.
What is an SSL Certificate?
An SSL certificate is a digital certificate that provides authentication for a website and enables an encrypted connection. This is typically signified by a padlock icon in your web browser’s address bar and the use of “https” rather than “http” in our website’s URL. When you see this, it indicates that the connection is secure, and the data you enter is private.
The SSL protocol is used by millions of online businesses to protect their customers, ensuring their online transactions remain confidential. A website secured with an SSL certificate assures you that you are connecting to the authentic presence of the company you are dealing with over a protected connection.
Rest assured, with SSL certification, your personal and payment information is encrypted the moment you enter it, and it remains private as it is sent to our site. We are committed to protecting the privacy of our customers and have implemented this technology to ensure that your information is secure at all times.
Continual Monitoring and Updates
In addition to SSL encryption, we constantly monitor our systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks. We also keep our security systems up to date with best practices, providing further assurance that your information is safeguarded to the strictest of standards.
Data Protection
We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you place an order or access your personal data. These measures include the use of secure servers, encryption, and proper data handling procedures. Your personal payment information is only accessible by a limited number of personnel who have special access rights to such systems and are required to keep the information confidential.
Third-Party Disclosure
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties except as necessary to provide the services requested, such as shipping your order. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or serving you, as long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.
GDPR Compliance
As a responsible business, we comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), you have certain data protection rights. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at info@gearsteadyboat.com. We will take all reasonable steps to allow you to correct, amend, delete, or limit the use of your personal data.
