Saltwater Insider (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit saltwaterinsider.com, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using our site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
Information you give us. When you sign up for our newsletter, submit a catch, list a charter, or contact us, you may provide information such as your name, email address, and any details you choose to include. We only collect what you give us voluntarily.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we automatically collect certain technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, and the site you came from. This is standard analytics data used to understand how our site is used and to improve it.
Cookies. We use cookies and similar technologies to help the site function, remember your preferences, measure traffic, and support our affiliate relationships. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not work as intended without them.

Email and newsletter
If you subscribe to Saltwater Insider, we use your email address to send you content and updates. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time. We use a third-party email service provider to manage our list and send our messages.
Analytics and third parties
We use third-party services (such as website analytics and affiliate networks) that may collect information through cookies and similar technologies to help us understand traffic and track affiliate referrals. These providers have their own privacy policies governing their use of your information.
Affiliate links
