Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 14, 2019

Swede and the Swan LLC dba Saltwolf (“Saltwolf”, “we,” “our” or “us”) is committed to respecting the privacy and security of your personal information. The following online privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes the information we collect when you access or use our Site or Service and how we use that information. By using this website (“Site”) or the service offered through our Site (the “Service”), you consent to our Privacy Policy.

We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect material changes in how we collect, use, share or store your personal information. We encourage you to refer to this Privacy Policy on an ongoing basis so that you understand our current Privacy Policy. You consent to any changes we make to this Privacy Policy if you continue to use the Site or Service after receiving a notice of the change or upon our posting of the new Privacy Policy on this Site.

This Privacy Policy informs you about:

• the personal information we collect and how we collect it;
• how we use and disclose the personal information;
• how we protect your personal information;
• our practices regarding the information of children;
• third party data practices;
• how you can access and change the personal information we store about you; and
• how you can contact us with any questions or concerns.

As used in this Privacy Policy, the term “personal information” is information that would allow someone to identify or contact you, including, for example, your full name, address, telephone number, birth date, or email address. Non-personal information is information that does not directly identify an individual. We collect both types of information about you. The following provides examples of the types of data that we collect from you and how we use the information.

COLLECTING INFORMATION

Like many websites, we gather information about how visitors use our Site. In general, you can visit many of our web pages without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. We may track your visit for trends and statistics, but you will remain anonymous unless you tell us who you are. Once you choose to give us your personal information, you are not anonymous to us.

The following are the types of information we collect:

Information you give us: We receive the personal information you provide to us when you use the Site such as your name, email address, phone number, address, credit card information and any feedback, questions, or recommendations you provide. We also retain information that you post or store through your account and/or on our Site and Service, including, without limitation, any messages you send or post, and your interests and preferences. If you purchase anything through our Site or Service, we (or our third party partners) may collect your credit card or payment information. In some cases, the Service allows you to submit questions and comments in public areas of the Site, and such information may read, collected, and used by us and other users of the Site. If you provide information directly to us in other ways, such as by sending us an email, registering for free newsletters, and sending us product ideas, we may retain that information and add it with the other information we have collected from you. We may also collect personal information that is necessary for our legitimate interests, which will be disclosed to you at the time of collection. We will use this information for the purposes for which it was collected. 

Information from third parties: We may receive personal information about you from other sources, such as our business partners or from individuals who refer you to us. We may also receive information about you from third parties, including marketers and advertisers. We may add this information to other information we collect from you.

Automatically collected information: We may receive and store certain types of information from you each time you use the Site or Service. For example we may automatically log your browser type, language preference, the date and time of your visit to the Site, your Internet Protocol (IP) address, and the website you visited before our Site. In addition, we may receive and store information about your use of the Site and Service. The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include:

• Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive by a website. Among other things, cookies help us improve our Site and Service and improve your experience on our Site and within our Service by analyzing the way you use our Site and Service. You can set your browser to not accept cookies, but that may prevent us from providing you with the full range of Service we offer. Also, please be aware that if you visit other websites you may be required to accept cookies. The use of cookies placed by third parties on other websites is not covered by this Privacy Policy. We do not have access or control over such cookies.
• Web Beacons. Web beacons are electronic images that may be used on our Site or in our emails. We use web beacons to deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and to tell if an email has been opened and acted upon.
• We may also use clear gifs or other data files or identifiers to collect information for statistical purposes and to improve and develop the Service we provide. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are placed on a hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on web pages.

We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking). We do not respond to browser-based “do not track” signals. Some third party sites who push content to our Site may keep track of your browsing activities over time and across different websites when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you.

Social Information: The Site may offer you the ability to share your personal information through a social networking site (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest), using such site’s integrated tools (e.g., Facebook “Like” button, or Pinterest “Save” button). The use of such integrated tools enables you to share personal information about yourself with other individuals or the public, depending on the settings that you have established with such social networking site. Additionally, by making personal information available on the website, you “opt in” to allow Saltwolf to provide such personal information to a social networking site without your further consent. For more information about the purpose and scope of data collection and use in connection with such social networking site or a site’s integrated tools, please visit the privacy policies of the entities that provide these social networking sites.

• To our wholly-owned companies and affiliates, which may be outside the United States;
• To third parties in connection with any merger, acquisition, reorganization, change in capital structure or sale of all or part of the business or makes a sale or transfer of assets of Saltwolf;
• To third parties designated by you with your express consent;
• When we have a good faith belief that disclosure is necessary to comply with law, protect or defend our rights or the rights of other users of our Site or products or Services, or act in an emergency to protect someone’s safety; or
• Otherwise with your express consent.

We may create non-personally identifying anonymous or aggregate data from the information we collect and information provided by third parties. We may use that anonymous or aggregate data for our own purposes or disclose it to third parties in our own discretion.

PROTECTING YOUR INFORMATION

We take reasonable steps to help protect your personal information in an effort designed to prevent loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. We follow reasonable standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.
