Collecting Information About You
In general, you can visit many of our web pages
without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information
about yourself. We may track the Internet domain address from which
people visit us and analyze this data for trends and statistics,
but individual users will remain anonymous, unless you voluntarily
tell us who you are.
There may be times (such as when you purchase or
order a product, subscribe to a service, or to participate in contests,
sweepstakes or promotions, etc.) at which we ask you to provide
certain information about yourself, such as your name, shipping/billing
address, telephone number, email address, credit card information,
personal interests, etc. We also maintain a record of your online
product purchases. Whether or not to provide such information is
completely your own choice. But if you choose not to provide the
information we request, you may be unable to purchase products,
or access certain services, offers and content on our web site.
Using Information About You
We use the personally identifiable information
you provide for internal purposes, such as confirming and tracking
your order, subscription or registration, analyzing trends and statistics,
informing you of our new products, services and offers, and providing
you with information from and about Heckels Eagle River Marina.
We may contract with companies or persons to provide
certain services including credit card processing, shipping, data
management, promotional services, etc. We call them our Service
Providers. We provide our Service Providers with the information
needed for them to perform these services. We also ask our Service
Providers to confirm that their privacy practices are consistent
with ours.
Although unlikely, in certain instances we may
disclose your personally identifiable information when we have reason
to believe that it is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal
action against persons or entities who may be causing injury to
you, to Heckels Eagle River Marina or to others. We may also disclose
your personally identifiable information when we believe the law
requires it.
Editing, Updating, Correcting and Deleting Information
About You
We want to communicate with you only if you want
to hear from us. If you prefer not to receive information from us
please let us know by calling us at 1-800-HECKELS(432-5357) or by
sending us an email. Please be sure to include your email address,
full name, and specifically what information you do not want to
receive. If you would like to update or correct your email address,
street address or other personal information with us please contact
us the same way.
Please note that sometimes these requests may take
up to 6-8 weeks to be effective, particularly if we are removing
your name from postal mailings. In addition, when you purchase from
us online or when you choose to enter a sweepstakes or other promotion,
we may need to contact you via phone, email or mail to address questions
or issues specific to your order, entry, etc., even if you have
opted to not receive communications.
Please remember, if you delete certain information
you may not be able to continue to purchase products or access other
portions of our web site without entering additional information.
Cookies
Our web sites use "cookies." A cookie
is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web
server and stored on your computer's hard drive. Generally, we use
cookies to remind us of who you are, tailor our products and services
to suit your personal interests, estimate our audience size, assist
our online merchants to track visits to and sales at their stores
and to process your order, track your status in our promotions,
contests and sweepstakes, and/or analyzing your visiting patterns.
You can generally set your browser to not accept cookies or to notify
you when you are sent a cookie, giving you the chance to decide
whether or not to accept it.
We may contract with third parties who may use
cookies and collect information on our behalf. These third parties
are prohibited by our contract with them from sharing that information
with anyone other than us or our Service Providers. However, we
respect your right to choose whether to be included in such services.

Security
We use sophisticated encryption and authentication
tools to protect the security of your personal information that
you share with us. Unfortunately, however, no data transmission
over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result,
while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot
guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit
to or from our web sites, and you do so at your own risk. Once we
receive your transmission, we will do our best to protect its security
on our systems.
We urge you to keep your password in a safe place
and not to divulge it to anyone. Also remember to sign off your
account and close your browser window when you have finished your
visit. This is to ensure that others cannot access your account,
especially if you are sharing a computer with someone else or are
using a computer in a public place such as a library or Internet
cafe.
Links to Third Party Sites
Our web sites may contain links to web sites operated
and maintained by third parties, over which we have no control.
Privacy policies on such linked sites may be different from our
privacy policy. You access such linked sites at your own risk. You
should always read the privacy policy of a linked site before disclosing
any personal information on such site.
Policy Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy in whole
or in part, we will inform you by posting a notice on our web site.
Those changes will go into effect on the date posted in the notice.
The new policy will apply to all current and past users of our web
site and will replace any prior policies that are inconsistent.
This policy was posted in November 2002.
