When visitors contact us, request learning resources, or submit partnership applications, we may collect names, email addresses, telephone numbers, business names, business locations, website addresses, fishing interests, and other information voluntarily provided in our forms.

Our website and its service providers may also collect technical information, such as IP addresses, browser information, and website usage data.

We do not use partnership applications as authorization to send unrelated promotional emails.

4. Technology and Service Providers

Our website operates through Squarespace. We also use services including Zapier, Google Sheets, Google Drive, and email providers to support registration, approval, communication, and resource delivery.

Information may be processed by these providers as needed to operate our website and fulfill requests, subject to their applicable terms and privacy practices.

7. Third-Party Websites and Purchases

Our website may link to Amazon, publishers, retailers, educational resources, and other independent websites.

Those websites maintain their own privacy policies and information-handling practices. We encourage visitors to review those policies before sharing personal information.

8. Information Retention and Security

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to administer requested services, maintain appropriate business records, resolve issues, and fulfill applicable legal obligations.
