Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to Flytechy, Inc. (dba Fishtechy) (“Fishtechy,” “our,” “we” or “us”), including our websites, mobile apps, and products (collectively, the “Service”). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and share Personal Information from users of the Service (“you” or “your”). As used in this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable individual. By using the Service, you consent to this Privacy Policy.

Please read the entire Privacy Policy before using the Service, but for your convenience here are some of the key points:

• In some cases, we collect Personal Information from you and from some third parties about you (such as when you place an order, your payment is processed, create an account, if you log into a third-party, etc.). We do not sell your Personal Information and only share it with any third parties that are pivotal to providing the Service. Fishtechy does not disclose individual account data with other users or third parties unless we’re legally compelled to do so.
• Your use of the Service allows Fishtechy to collect Catch Data, including (but not limited to) species, measurements, date/time, environmental data, images/videos and precise geolocations for each catch.
• Any precise geolocation information collected during your use of the Service and attached to Catch Data belongs to you … your hot spots are yours alone! We do not share or sell the precise geolocation information attached to Catch Data with other users or third parties.
• Certain features within the Service allow you to optionally share Catch Data with third parties such as government entities or non-profit organizations for the protection, health and welfare of fisheries, or to tournaments you explicitly choose to compete in. We remove precision to any/all geolocation data shared so that the body of water can be known, but not the exact location (ie., your hot spots!). You may opt-in or out of this sharing at any time. (future data not past data)
• You may choose to share Catch Data with other users of the Service or to social media through the Service, but in no cases will this include precise geolocation.
• In some cases, we may share or sell aggregated and anonymized Catch Data, with Personal Information and precise geolocation removed, to third parties.

By visiting, accessing, or using the Service, you expressly consent to the collection, use, storage, transfer, processing, and disclosure of your information, including Personal Information, as described in this Privacy Policy. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS PRIVACY POLICY, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE ANY PART OF THE SERVICE, REGISTER FOR AN ACCOUNT, OR MAKE A PURCHASE. Beyond this Privacy Policy, your use of the Service is also subject to the Terms of Use located at https://fishtechy.com/terms-of-use/ (“Terms of Use”). All capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy have the respective meanings set forth in the Terms of Use.
