Privacy Policy

Introduction

This page describes our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information when you use our Website, and the choices you have associated with that data. By using our Services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

Terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Service, unless otherwise defined here.

GetTheShip.com does not sell your data.

Definitions

• Service: The GetTheShip.com website.
• Personal Information: Information that identifies, relates to, describes, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual.
• Usage Data: Data collected automatically, either generated by your use of the Service or from the Service infrastructure itself (for example, the duration of a page visit).
• Cookies: Small pieces of data stored on your device (computer or mobile device).

Information We Collect

We collect several types of information to provide and improve our Service.

Personal Information

While using our Service, we may ask you to provide personally identifiable information, including:

• Email address
• First name and last name

In the course of using the Service, you may also choose to provide additional information such as graduation year, height, weight, position, GPA, and profile links. All information collected is accessible via your user account and may be corrected or deleted at any time through your account or by contacting us.

Usage Data

We may automatically collect information about how you access and interact with our Service. This may include details such as your IP address, browser type and version, pages visited, time and date of your visit, time spent on each page, unique device identifiers, and other diagnostic information. Some of this data may be considered Personal Information under applicable laws.

Cookies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Service and hold certain information. Cookies are small data files that may include a unique anonymous identifier — sent to your browser and stored on your device. We also use beacons, tags, and scripts to gather and monitor information to enhance and analyze our Service.

You can configure your browser to block all cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being sent. Note that disabling cookies may prevent some features from functioning properly. To learn more, visit allaboutcookies.org.

We use:

• Session Cookies — to keep you logged in and help you interact with the service.
• Security Cookies — for security purposes.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To provide and manage our Service;
• To inform you about updates or changes to our Service;
• To enable you to access interactive features;
• To offer customer support and respond to inquiries;
• To collect analytics and insights to improve our Service;
• To monitor usage and user activity;
• To identify, prevent, and resolve technical issues;
• To send you news, offers, and information about products or services similar to those you have previously purchased or shown interest in — unless you have opted out;
• To comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal proceedings.

We may also use your information to send newsletters, marketing materials, or promotional content. You can opt out at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email we send.

We will retain your Personal Information until you request its deletion or until it is automatically removed in accordance with our data retention policy. In some cases, we may retain certain information for backup, archival, audit, or legal purposes.

External Websites

The Website may include links to third-party websites not operated or controlled by GetTheShip.com. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or policies of those external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit before providing them with Personal Information.

Sharing and Transfer of Data

Your information, including Personal Information, may be stored and processed on computers in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction. By using our Service, you consent to this transfer and processing.

In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, your information may be transferred to the surviving or acquiring entity. We will notify affected users through the Website if your Personal Information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

We may also share Personal Information where required by law or subpoena, or where we reasonably believe such disclosure is necessary to: (a) comply with law or reasonable requests of law enforcement; (b) enforce our Terms of Service or protect the security and integrity of our Services; or (c) exercise or protect our rights, property, or personal safety, or that of our users.

Other than for purposes of the Service, we will not rent or sell your Personal Information to third parties without your consent.

Data Security

We are committed to safeguarding the confidentiality of your information. We implement physical, electronic, and procedural protections that meet or exceed federal standards. Access to your information is limited to authorized employees who are trained in handling customer data and need access to perform their duties.

All of our operational and data systems are housed in secure environments designed to prevent unauthorized access. You are responsible for keeping your password and account details confidential and for managing access to any email communications you receive from us.

Data Retention

When a subscription is canceled, all associated user data will be deleted after 180 days, unless the subscription is reactivated within that period.

Google Gmail API

Pro users have the ability to authorize GetTheShip to send emails on their behalf through Google's Gmail API. We will prompt you to grant access with the scope of https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.send.

If at any time you wish to revoke our access, you can do so directly at Google or from your account settings page.

Service Providers

We may engage third-party companies or individuals to help deliver and support our Services — such as operating the Service on our behalf or assisting with usage analysis. These providers are granted access to your Personal Information solely to perform their functions and are contractually obligated to maintain confidentiality and not use it for any other purpose.

Payments

We use trusted third-party payment providers to process payments. We do not store or collect your payment card details — all payment information is submitted directly to our processors, whose handling of your data is governed by their own privacy policies. Our processors comply with PCI-DSS requirements maintained by the PCI Security Standards Council.

Our current payment processor: Stripe — stripe.com/us/privacy.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Changes are effective when posted. By continuing to use our Services, you agree to any such changes.
