This Privacy Policy explains how The Outdoor Recreation (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses and protects information when you visit theoutdoorrecreation.com (the “Site”). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below.

Information we collect

Information you give us

  • Contact messages: if you email us or use our contact page, we receive your name, email address and the content of your message.
  • Comments and reviews: if you leave a comment, we collect the name, email address and text you submit, plus your IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam.
  • Newsletter or deal alerts: if you sign up, we collect your email address so we can send you the updates you requested.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, we automatically receive standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, pages visited and the date and time of your visit. This information is used in aggregate to understand how the Site is used and to keep it secure.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We and our partners may use cookies to:

  • remember your preferences (for example, light or dark mode);
  • measure traffic and understand which content is useful (analytics);
  • attribute purchases made through our affiliate links.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some parts of the Site may not work properly if cookies are disabled.

Affiliate links and third-party sites

The Site contains affiliate links, including links to Amazon. When you click one of these links, you leave our Site and the third party may set its own cookies and collect information under its own privacy policy. We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices of other websites. Please review the privacy policy of any site you visit. See our Affiliate Disclosure for more details.

Analytics and search tools

We may use analytics and webmaster services (such as Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Microsoft Clarity or Bing Webmaster Tools) to understand traffic and improve the Site. These services may collect information such as pages visited and general device and location data. Where available, IP anonymization is used.

How we use information

  • To operate, maintain and improve the Site and its content.
  • To respond to your messages and requests.
  • To send newsletters or deal alerts you have subscribed to (you can unsubscribe at any time).
  • To detect and prevent spam, abuse and security issues.
  • To comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information.

How long we keep information

We keep personal information only for as long as needed for the purposes above. Comments and their metadata are kept indefinitely so follow-up comments can be approved automatically. Contact messages are deleted when they are no longer needed. You can unsubscribe from emails at any time.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or California), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To make a request, contact us through our Contact page. We will respond within a reasonable time and as required by applicable law.

Children’s privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We use reasonable measures, including HTTPS encryption, to protect information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
