This Privacy Policy applies to https://www.alaskaseafood.org (hereinafter, “us”, “we”, or “https://www.alaskaseafood.org”).

This Privacy Policy, together with the Terms and Conditions posted on our website, set forth the general rules and policies governing your use of our website. Depending on your activities when visiting our website, you may be required to agree to additional terms and conditions. 

Website Visitors 

Like most website operators, ASMI collects non-personally identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. ASMI’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Alaska Seafood’s visitors use its website. 

ASMI also collects potentially personally identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. 

Gathering and Use of Personally Identifying Information 

Certain visitors to ASMI’s websites choose to interact with ASMI in ways that require ASMI to gather personally identifying information. The amount and type of information that ASMI gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. 

ASMI does not automatically collect personally identifiable information from you as you visit our site. Personal information is collected only if you provide it voluntarily, through a form, email, telephone or in-person contact. 

Specifically, 

  • We will limit the collection of personal information to that which is necessary for the purposes of responding to your requests. 
  • All information we collect will be by fair and lawful means. 
  • We will ensure that security safeguards are in place to protect your personal information in a manner appropriate to its sensitivity. 
  • We will not use your personal information for marketing purposes other than the purposes specified at time of collection, or without your prior consent. 
  • We will not share, sell, or otherwise distribute your personal information to any third party. 
  • Every effort is made to maintain the accuracy of your personal information, and at any time you have the right to notify ASMI and update your personal information. If you wish to change or update your personal information, please notify us in writing at [email protected]. 
  • At any time, if you request, we will remove your personal information from our files. 
  • At any time, if you request, you have the right to copy, transfer, or move your information. 
  • At any time, if you request, you have the right to be informed how we have used your information.

We share your Personal Information with service providers to help us provide our services and fulfill our contracts with you, as described above. For example:

Security 

The security of your Personal Information is important to us but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. 

Links to External Sites 

Our Service may contain links to external sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions of every site you visit. 

We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third-party sites, products or services. 

Embedded Content from Other Websites 

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. 

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website. 

Aggregated Statistics 

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. 

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies 

To enrich and perfect your online experience, ASMI uses “Cookies”, similar technologies and services provided by others to display personalized content, appropriate advertising and store your preferences on your computer. 

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. ASMI uses cookies to help ASMI identify and track visitors, their usage of https://www.alaskaseafood.org, and their website access preferences. ASMI visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using ASMI’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of ASMI’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies. 

By continuing to navigate our website without changing your cookie settings, you hereby acknowledge and agree to ASMI’s use of cookies. 

CloudFront 

CloudFront is an Amazon Web Service (AWS) that speeds up distribution of static and dynamic web content, such as .html, .css, .js, and image files, to users. CloudFront delivers content through a worldwide network of data centers called edge locations. When a user requests content that served by CloudFront, the user is routed to the edge location that provides the lowest latency (time delay), so that content is delivered with the best possible performance. 

If the content is already in the edge location with the lowest latency, CloudFront delivers it immediately.
If the content is not in that edge location, CloudFront retrieves it from an Amazon S3 bucket or an HTTP server (for example, a web server) that has been identified as the source for the definitive version of the content.
CloudFront captures information about each request that includes system logs which captures the following information: IP address, lat/long of the server which served the request, country and date and time. More information about AWS’s privacy practices can be found at https://aws.amazon.com/privacy/. 

Google Analytics 

We use a tool called “Google Analytics” to collect information about use of this site. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit this site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site. We use the information we get from Google Analytics only to improve this site. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit this site, rather than your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this site, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use (https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/) and the Google Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy). 

Google Tag Manager (GTM) 

Google Tag Manager (“GTM”) is a tag management system to manage JavaScript and HTML tags used for tracking and analytics on websites. Tags are small code elements that, among other things, are used to measure traffic and visitor behavior, to understand the effect of online advertising and social channels, to set up remarketing towards target groups and to test and optimize websites. GTM makes it easier for us to integrate and manage our tags. We use GTM on our website to include the Google Analytics tracking tool. 

If you have performed deactivation, GTM takes this deactivation into account. For more information about GTM’s privacy practices can be found at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en and terms of use at https://www.google.com/analytics/tag-manager/use-policy/. 

Privacy Policy Changes 

Although most changes are likely to be minor, ASMI may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in ASMI’s sole discretion. ASMI encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
