Privacy Policy
Last UpdatedAt SailsGoal, we appreciate your use of and contributions to our website, our mobile and desktop applications and/or our related services (collectively known as the "Services," or, each individually, a "Service"). SailsGoal respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information.
We encourage you to read this privacy policy to understand the information we collect and how we use and disclose it. This policy applies to all of our Services that link to it.
Information Collected by SailsGoal
When you use the Services, we collect a variety of information from and about you, your devices, and your interaction with the Services. Some of this information identifies you directly or can be used to identify you when combined with other data.
Information you provide
When using the Services, you may be asked to provide personal information about yourself, such as your name, contact information, payment information, details about your boat or boats you are interested in, expected boat costs. This may occur, for example, when you register on the Services, share or save a boat, or provide models to estimate your costs. You may also provide information about a third party through the Services, for example, if you share a boat listing with a recipient via email. We may combine this information with other information we collect from your interaction with the Services or from other companies.
Some information you provide through the Services is collected and processed by third parties on our behalf. For example, when you order products or services through the Services, we may need to collect your credit or debit card information. This information is collected and processed by third-party payment processors.
Cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies
We and our partners use various technologies to collect information automatically when you access and use the Services, including cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies. Cookies are bits of electronic information that can be transferred to your computer or other electronic device to uniquely identify your browser. When you use the Services, we may place one or more cookies on your computer or other electronic device or use other technologies that provide similar functionality. We and our partners may use cookies to connect your activity on the Services with other information we store about you in your account profile or your prior interactions on the Services to, for example, store your preferences. The use of cookies helps us improve the quality of the Services to you, by identifying information which is most interesting to you, tracking trends, measuring the effectiveness of advertising, or storing information you may want to retrieve on a regular basis, such as your favorite boats. At any time, you may adjust settings on your browser to refuse cookies according to the instructions related to your browser. However, if you choose to disable cookies, many of the features of the Services will not operate properly.
The pages on the Services may also include web beacons or pixels, which are electronic files to count users who have visited that page, to track activity over time and across different websites, to determine users' interactions with emails we send, to identify certain cookies on the computer or other electronic device accessing that page, or to collect other related information, and this information may be associated with your unique browser, device identifier, or Internet Protocol address.
Third-party cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies
We work with service providers and advertising networks to track and manage cookie information and your activities while you're using the Services and your online activities over time and across different websites and devices. We use third party providers (for example, SendGrid) to send emails on our behalf and to track and collect certain information such as user interaction with such emails (e.g. opening an email or clicking on a link in an email).

We will retain your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
When you delete your personal information, we will retain logs and non-personal information uploaded by you (such as details about a boat) or about your activity on our website.
