Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 26, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Badfish Slayers LLC (“Badfish Slayers,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit badfishslayers.com and any related subdomains or pages we operate (collectively, the “Site”). By using the Site you agree to the practices described below. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
1. Information We Collect
We try to keep data collection minimal. We collect:
- Information you provide directly. When you submit our dealer inquiry form, contact us by email, or otherwise reach out, we receive the information you choose to provide — for example your name, dive shop or organization, email address, phone number, city/state, and any notes you include.
- Automatically collected information. Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically log basic technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and the pages you visit. This is used to operate, secure, and improve the Site.
- Cookies and similar technologies. The Site may use cookies or similar storage to remember preferences and enable core functionality. You can disable cookies in your browser, but parts of the Site may not function as intended.
- Third-party services. If you click links to our online shop, social media pages, photo galleries, or partner dive shops, those third-party services collect information under their own privacy policies, which we do not control.
We do not knowingly collect Social Security numbers, government IDs, precise geolocation, biometric data, or payment card numbers through this Site. Purchases, if any, are processed by a separate e-commerce platform under its own privacy terms.
2. How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to dealer inquiries, contact requests, and questions.
- Operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site.
- Send transactional or relationship messages (for example, replies to your inquiry).
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.
- Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or technical issues.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your information for targeted advertising on this Site.
3. How We Share Information
We share personal information only as needed and only with:
- Service providers who help us operate the Site (such as hosting, email delivery, and analytics), under obligations of confidentiality and limited use.
- Legal and safety purposes when we believe disclosure is required by law, subpoena, court order, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Badfish Slayers, our users, or the public.
- Business transfers in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of all or part of our assets, in which case information may transfer subject to the recipient’s obligations.
4. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Dealer inquiries and contact messages are typically retained for the period needed to maintain the relationship or until you ask us to delete them.
5. Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You use the Site at your own risk.
6. Children’s Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
7. Your Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, delete, or limit how we use it. To make a request, email info@badfishslayers.com. We will respond consistent with applicable law. You can also unsubscribe from any marketing emails by following the unsubscribe link in those emails.
California residents: We do not sell or “share” personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as those terms are defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act.
8. International Visitors
The Site is operated from the United States. If you visit from outside the U.S., you understand that your information will be processed in the United States, which may have data protection laws different from those in your country.
9. Third-Party Links
The Site contains links to third-party websites and services, including our online shop, social media pages, photo galleries, and partner dive shops. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or terms of those third parties. Review their policies before sharing information with them.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be posted on this page; your continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Policy.
