- Your email address, when you sign up for our newsletter or use the Contact Us form
- Your IP address, which is collected automatically through our website and analytics tools
We do not collect cookie IDs or track your browsing behavior.
Legal Grounds
We collect and use your personal data based on your clear permission — this is called “consent” under privacy laws like GDPR. You give consent when you type your info into a form or choose to sign up for our emails.How We Use Data
We use your personal information for a few simple reasons:
- We use your name and email to reply to questions or messages you send through the Contact Us form
- We use your email address to send newsletters, only if you sign up for them
- We use your IP address to protect the site and understand general traffic patterns
We don’t use your information for ads or automated decisions.
Sharing
We don’t sell or share your personal information with advertisers.
We do work with a few trusted companies that help us run the site:
- Google Analytics sees your IP address to help us understand website visits
- Our web hosting company may process your name, email, and IP address when you submit forms
These partners are not allowed to use your data for their own purposes and must keep it safe.
Cookies & Tracking
We use Google Analytics to learn how people use our site. This tool uses cookies, which are small files stored on your device.
We currently do not use a cookie banner, and we only use cookies for analytics — not for marketing or tracking your behavior.
If laws change or we start serving people in the EU, UK, or California, we will add a cookie notice to get proper consent.

Olivia@knowseafood.com to:

Children’s Privacy
Our website is not for children under 13 years old. We do not knowingly collect any personal data from kids. If we find out that we accidentally collected information from a child, we will delete it right away.
International Transfers
We store and handle all personal data in the United States.
We do not serve or target people who live in the EU, UK, or Brazil. Because of that, we do not use special legal tools for transferring data internationally.

We work hard to keep your information safe. Here are some of the ways we protect your data:
- We use HTTPS so your connection to our site is encrypted
- We have firewalls to protect our servers
- We use a secure hosting provider that follows ISO 27001 standards
- We update our software regularly to close security holes
- We limit who inside our company can see your data
Retention
We keep your data only as long as we need it:
- We keep your name for 30 days after you submit a contact form
- We keep your email address until you ask us to delete it
- We keep your IP address as long as needed for security and analytics
You can ask us to delete your data sooner by sending an email.
Automated Decisions
We do not use automated tools to make decisions about you, and we do not profile you based on your information.
Do Not Track
Some browsers let users send a “Do Not Track” signal. Our website does not respond to these signals at this time.
