4. Cookies & Tracking

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, keep the Site functioning, and understand how visitors use the Site. Some cookies are set by us and some by the third-party tools listed in Section 5. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; however, some features of the Site may not work properly without them.

5. Third-Party Services & Tools

The Site is built on WordPress and uses the following third-party services and plugins, some of which may receive or process your information. Each provider handles data under its own privacy policy.

Tools marked “if enabled” should be confirmed against your current site configuration and removed from this list if not in use.

6. Booking & Payments

Online bookings and payments are processed through FareHarbor, our third-party booking platform. When you book through the Site, the information you enter (including payment card details) is submitted directly to FareHarbor and processed under FareHarbor’s Privacy Policy. We do not store full payment card numbers on our own systems. We receive booking confirmations and the contact and trip details needed to deliver your reservation.

• Legal and regulatory authorities when required by law, or to protect our rights, safety, or property.

8. Data Retention

We keep your information for as long as needed to provide our services, maintain business and booking records, comply with legal and tax obligations, and resolve disputes. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete or anonymize it.

9. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, to opt out of marketing communications, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To make a request, contact us using Section 14. We will respond as required by applicable law. Residents of California (CCPA/CPRA) and individuals in the EU/UK (GDPR) may have additional rights; we honor those rights where they apply.

11. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information, and our booking and hosting providers maintain their own security measures. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

12. Third-Party Links

The Site links to external websites and platforms, including the Alaska Department of Fish & Game, social media, TripAdvisor, and our booking provider. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties; please review their policies.
