Cookies

Outdoor Tech may use cookies to remember certain user information. This allows users of the Website to avoid logging in more than once, thereby saving time. You may, at any time, disable or refuse to accept cookies by changing the preferences or settings on your web browser. If you choose to disable cookies, you will still be able to use our Website. However, you will not be able to fully take advantage of certain automation and other functionality features available on this Website.

Please note: No personally identifiable information is collected with the cookies that we set. Accepting cookies while on the Website will not put the user at risk for marketing to other sites.

Web Statistics & Shared Data

We collect and use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track user movement, and gather broad aggregate demographic information for reporting and sponsorship purposes. IP addresses are not linked to Personally Identifiable Information.

From time to time, we may use non-identifiable aggregate information to better design our Website and to share with select advertising partners, sponsors, and/or affiliates. For example, we may tell an advertiser that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our Website, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out our registration form, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to personally identify those individuals.

Data Security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have established appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

 

Apps

Your data will be kept securely and never be sold to a third party. However, we will make your data searchable in a directory based system so that other members may find you and invite you into their chat groups. In order to identify your user name, an individual will need to already know your information and input it as an exact match into our database. Once an exact match of a name, username, phone number or email is made based upon the user input, that user will then be able to send you an invitation to be part of their chat group.

 

SMS Messaging

Outdoor Tech collects various information from and about you when you sign up to receive automated marketing text messages, including information you directly provide when you enroll in its text message marketing program (the “Messaging Service”).
