This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) applies to the website located at https://panapesca.com/ operated by PanaPesca USA LLC (“PanaPesca,” “us,” “our,” or “we”) and its associated websites, subdomains, mobile versions, any associated mobile applications and services where this Privacy Policy is posted (collectively, the “Platforms”), and describes how PanaPesca collects, uses, discloses, and secures the personal information you provide on the Platforms. It also explains what your rights are, which may differ depending on where you are located. We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy carefully to understand our personal information practices. When you access and use our Platforms, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy, understand it, and that you do not object to our processing activities.
WHAT DO WE MEAN BY “PERSONAL INFORMATION” AND “PERSONAL DATA”?
“Personal information” or “personal data” is information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household. Personal information that is aggregated (e.g., compiled to create statistics that cannot identify a particular individual) or de-identified (all identifiers obscured such that it cannot be linked to a particular individual) is not considered “personal information” for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.
THE PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE COLLECT IT
We collect the following personal information from you:
INFORMATION THAT YOU PROVIDE TO US ABOUT YOURSELF
- Identifiers: When you complete a form on our website or create an account, if account creation becomes available, we may ask you for information such as: (i) contact information, including your name, email address, phone number, and Zip code; and (ii) unique identifiers, such as username, account name, or password. This information allows us to provide you with an account, operate our Platforms, and send you communications.
INFORMATION COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY
Internet or other electronic network activity information: When you use our Platforms, or interact with our advertisements and emails, we may use cookies and similar technologies (“cookies”) to collect information about your location, your activities on our Platforms, your interaction with our advertisements and our emails, information about your device, and log information. These cookies may collect Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages (the pages you come from and go after leaving the Platforms), the files viewed through our Platforms (e.g., HTML pages, graphics, etc.), operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data.
Pixels: We may use third-party pixels, including social media pixels. These pixels collect information about your usage of our Platforms and transmit this information to third parties, such as social media companies. These social media companies may combine personal information collected via their pixels that may be deployed on the Platforms with your social media account and use it for their own advertising or profiling purposes. These pixels allow us to send you personalized advertisements. If you would like to adjust how ads are shown to you on social media, you can adjust your social media account settings.
Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics, a service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”) to help us understand how users interact with the Platforms and to enhance your experience when you use the Platforms. For more information on Google’s privacy practices, please go to https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and to opt out of data recording and analysis by Google Analytics on the Platforms, please visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Note that the opt-out is specific to Google Analytics activities and does not affect the activities of other ad networks or analytics providers that we may use.
How long these cookies stay on your device depends on what they do. For example, some cookies only work while you are visiting the Platforms and get deleted when you are done (session). Others may stay on your device unless you choose to delete them (persistent). Cookies may be placed by us (first party) or by other businesses (third party) when you visit the Platforms or other online properties.
We may use the following types of cookies:
- Strictly necessary. These are cookies that are required for the operation of the Platforms. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of the Platforms or areas requiring your acknowledgment or consent to proceed.
- Analytical/performance. These cookies from third-party services allow us to recognize and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors interact with the Platforms and our advertising and marketing (including email). This helps us to improve the way our Platforms work, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for more easily. It also helps us understand the effectiveness of, and improve, our advertising, marketing and content.
- Functionality. These are used to recognize you when you return to the Platforms. This enables us to personalize our content and recommendations for you, greet you by name or remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
- Advertising/Targeting. These cookies record your interactions with the Platforms, including the pages you visit and the links you click, and our advertising and marketing. We use this information to make the Platforms and our advertising and marketing more relevant to your interests. We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose.
Advertising Opt-Out: In the US, you may opt-out of companies participating in the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) program by opting out at https://optout.aboutads.info. For information and to download DAA’s AppChoices tool, see https://youradchoices.com/appchoices. Note that opting out does not mean you will no longer receive online advertising. It does mean that the company or companies from which you opted out will no longer deliver ads tailored to your preferences.
Browser Settings: You may be able to block cookies by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. Check your browser’s HELP menu to learn the correct way to change or update your cookies. Please see your mobile phone’s manual for information on how to do this on your phone’s browser.

“SALE” AND “SHARING” OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We do not sell your personal information for monetary compensation, but we may use advertising and analytics cookies, which may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information as those terms are defined under applicable privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act. The personal information we “sell” or “share” is limited to your identifiers and internet or other electronic network activity information. At any time, you can opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information by emailing us at info@panapesca.com.
BROWSER “DO NOT TRACK” SIGNALS
Some browsers offer a “do not track” (“DNT”) option. Because no common industry or legal standard for DNT has been adopted by industry groups, technology companies, or regulators, we do not respond to DNT signals. We will make efforts to continue to monitor developments around DNT browser technology and the implementation of a standard.
HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
- To offer our Platforms to you: We use your information to provide the Platforms to you; to communicate with you, including to send you advertising and marketing communications; to analyze your interactions with the Platforms and with our advertising and marketing; to identify you; to provide you with technical support and assistance; and to promote the Platforms to you.
- To optimize or improve the Platforms: We use your information to understand your usage of our Platforms, improve the content on our Platforms, and improve user experience generally; and
- To disclose your information to third parties to the extent permitted by law.
HOW WE DISCLOSE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We may disclose your personal information: (i) to certain third-party service providers, (ii) as required by law, and (iii) in connection with the protection and enforcement of our legal and contractual rights.
- With Service Providers: We may disclose your information to third parties who provide services on our behalf to help us with our business activities. This may include: website hosting, providing customer service, analyzing interactions with the Platforms and sending and analyzing our marketing communications, setting cookies for marketing and analytics purposes, conducting research and analysis, and providing cloud computing infrastructure.
- With Public Authorities or Law Enforcement, or in Connection with a Transaction: In certain situations, we may be required to disclose personal information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. We may also disclose your personal information as required by law (such as to comply with a subpoena or other legal process), when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, when we believe there is a violation to any of our terms or other agreement with us, to protect your safety or the safety of others and minors, to investigate fraud, to respond to a government request. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets or if we are involved in a bankruptcy or liquidation proceeding, your personal information may be one of the assets transferred.
- Prevent Fraud and Abuse of the Platforms: We may disclose information to prevent or detect fraud or to address technical issues and if we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding situations that involve abuse of the Platforms or their infrastructure. The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest in the maintaining the security of our Platforms.
- We may process and disclose information in an aggregated, de-identified manner, where the information is disclosed as part of a statistical report and does not contain personal information.
- With your consent.
LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES
Our Platforms may contain links to other websites owned and operated by third parties. After you leave our Platforms, we have no control over the information collected from or about you on those third-party websites. These third parties may collect information from you when you interact directly with them. We are not responsible, and assume no liability, for the privacy policies and/or practices of any third party. The use of your information by third parties is subject to their privacy policies and terms of use. Accordingly, we encourage you to visit their sites and review their policies prior to providing any personal information to them.
DISCLAIMER REGARDING VIDEO CONTENT
The Platforms may contain video content, audiovisual content, or content of a like nature (collectively, “Video Content”). Video Content is provided for the purpose of enhancing the user experience on the Platforms and is, therefore, provided in connection with our business activities on the Platforms. PanaPesca is not in the business of renting, selling, or delivering Video Content in a commercial manner. By using the Platforms, you agree that PanaPesca is not a “video tape service provider” as defined in the Video Privacy Protection Act (“VPPA”), 18 U.S.C.A. § 2710 or similar state laws.
Further, the Platforms may utilize online tracking technologies and code-based tools, including social media pixels, software development kits, and cookies that track information about your activity on the Platforms (collectively, “Targeting Tools”). Targeting Tools may result in information about your activity on the Platforms being transmitted from your browser to PanaPesca and to third parties, which, in turn, may result in the display of targeted advertisements on third-party websites. Whether Targeting Tools on the Platforms result in your browser’s transmission of information to third parties depends on a number of factors that may be outside of PanaPesca’s knowledge or control, including what third-party websites you use, what information you have provided to such third parties, and whether (and the extent to which) you have limited the use of cookies by the operators of third-party websites. As such, you hereby acknowledge and agree that, if Targeting Tools on the Platforms result in your browser’s transmission of information to third-party websites: (i) such transmissions do not constitute a “knowing disclosure” of “personally identifiable information” by PanaPesca under the VPPA; and (ii) you will not initiate any litigation or otherwise assert any claim against PanaPesca based, in whole or in part, on such transmissions, whether under the VPPA, the California Invasion of Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 630 et seq.), or any other statute, regulation, or cause of action.
DATA SECURITY
The security of your personal information is important to us. We implement reasonable technical and organizational security measures to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once it is received. PanaPesca takes steps to ensure that such data remains private and confidential. We restrict access to personal information to PanaPesca employees, contractors, and agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop, or improve our Platforms. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.
Please understand, however, that no data transmissions over the Internet are guaranteed to be 100% secure due to the inherent risks of data transmission over the Internet. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you understand that any information that you transfer to us is done at your own risk. If we learn of a security system breach, we may attempt to notify you, including electronically, so that you can take appropriate protective steps. By using the Platforms or providing personal information to us, you agree that we can communicate with you electronically regarding security, privacy, and administrative issues relating to your use of the Platforms. We may post a notice via our Platforms if a security breach occurs. We may also send an email to you in these circumstances, at the email address you have provided to us. If you have any questions about the security of your personal information, you can contact us via the contact information below.
DATA RETENTION
We may retain your information for as long as needed to provide you with the Platforms, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. In certain circumstances, we may be required by law to retain your personal information or may need to retain your personal information in order to continue providing access to the Platforms. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information; the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the personal information; the purpose for which we use the personal information; whether we can achieve the purposes through other means; and the applicable legal requirements. If we de-identify personal information, we will maintain and use the information in de-identified form and not attempt to re-identify the information except as required or permitted by law.
Even if you delete an account you have with us, keep in mind that the deletion by our third-party providers may not be immediate, and that the deleted information may persist in backup copies for a reasonable period of time.
OPTING OUT OF MARKETING EMAILS AND NEWSLETTERS
At any time, you can add or remove your name from a PanaPesca marketing list by contacting us at info@panapesca.com. We will endeavor to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable.
You may sign-up to receive email or other communications from us. If you would like to discontinue receiving this information, you may update your email preferences by using the “Unsubscribe” link found in emails we send to you or by contacting us via the contact information below. If you unsubscribe from marketing emails, you may still receive transactional or relationship emails from us.
POLICY REGARDING CHILDREN’S PERSONAL INFORMATION
The Platforms are not directed to children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If you are under 18, please do not use the Platforms and do not provide any personal information to us. If you become aware that a child under 18 has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us at info@panapesca.com.
DATA TRANSFERS
The Platforms are hosted in the United States. In order to communicate with you about content, the information that we collect from you may be transferred to, stored, used, and processed by PanaPesca in the United States or one of our service providers based in the United States or outside of the United States. Such entities may be engaged in, among other things: (i) preparing and sending newsletters or emails to which you may subscribe; and (ii) the provision of support services.
If you are visiting from the European Union or other regions with laws governing information collection and use that may differ from United States law, please note that you are transferring your personal information to the United States. The laws of some countries may not provide the same levels of protection of personal information as your home country, particularly if you are a resident in the European Union. By using the Platforms, you agree to the collection, transfer, storage, use, and processing of your personal information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. When you provide personal information to us or our service providers or vendors, you consent to the processing of your information in the United States as the Platforms are operated in the United States. We will take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is treated securely in accordance with this Privacy Policy, and that all personal information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers or those of our service providers.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES TREAT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION IN A MANNER THAT MAY BE SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT FROM, AND LESS PROTECTIVE THAN, THE TREATMENT REQUIRED UNDER THE LAWS OF OTHER COUNTRIES AND JURISDICTIONS. IF YOU DO NOT WANT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION TRANSFERRED TO THE UNITED STATES, YOU SHOULD NOT SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH US OR MAKE USE OF THE PLATFORMS.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY THE LAW OF THE COUNTRY IN WHICH YOU ARE LOCATED, YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO REQUIRE US TO TREAT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF ANY COUNTRY OR JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE UNITED STATES. HOWEVER, THE FOREGOING WAIVER MAY NOT BE LEGALLY BINDING IN SOME COUNTRIES, SUCH AS THE MEMBER STATES OF THE EUROPEAN UNION. TO THE EXTENT IT IS NOT LEGALLY BINDING IN THE COUNTRY IN WHICH YOU ARE LOCATED, THE FOREGOING WAIVER DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU.
CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We may need to update this policy from time to time, and we reserve the right to do so as we deem necessary or desirable. We will notify you of such changes by revising the “Last updated” date provided herein, and/or by any other legal means, and your use of the Platforms after any such changes shall constitute your consent to such changes. We encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy practices.
LEGAL DISCLAIMER
We are not responsible nor will we be liable to you in any way for events beyond our direct control. Because of the complex and constantly changing nature of our technology and business, we cannot guarantee, nor do we represent, that our performance will be error free, and to the maximum extent permitted by law we will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages or other loss suffered by you and relating to the use or release of your personal information.
