At AFIELD, we recognize that you care how your information is collected and used. We are committed to protecting your privacy while providing high-end content for the adventure sports community. This policy explains our practices for afield.life.
1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We collect only what is necessary to improve your experience on the site.
- Voluntary Information: This is “Personal Information” you choose to give us, such as your name or email when you use our contact form or sign up for a newsletter. We use this to answer your questions and provide the services you requested.
- Automatic Information: Like most websites, we use cookies and tracking technologies (like Google Analytics). This collects your IP address, general location, browser type, and how you interact with our stories. This data is used for analysis and helps us see which adventure sports are trending.
2. HOW WE USE YOUR DATA (Our Integrity Promise)
- We do NOT sell, rent, or lease your personal information. Unlike corporate data brokers, AFIELD is a project driven by passion. Your data is used strictly to operate the site, personalize your experience, and analyze our traffic.
- Service Providers: we may share anonymized data with trusted service providers (like our web host or analytics tools) solely to keep the site running efficiently.
3. AFFILIATE & ADVERTISING DISCLOSURE
AFIELD is supported by its community.
- Affiliate Links: We participate in affiliate marketing programs. If you click on a gear recommendation and make a purchase, we may earn a commission. This does not change the price for you and helps keep our field guides free.
- Third-Party Ads: We may use third-party advertising partners who use cookies to show you relevant ads. You can opt-out of this through your browser settings or Google’s ad preferences.
4. THIRD-PARTY LINKS
Our stories often link to other websites, gear brands, or social media platforms (YouTube, Instagram, etc.). Once you leave afield.life, we are not responsible for the privacy practices of those other sites. We encourage you to check their policies as well.
5. YOUR GLOBAL RIGHTS (GDPR & CCPA)
We respect privacy laws regardless of where you are riding:
- Access & Deletion: You have the right to ask what data we have or request its deletion.
- Children’s Privacy: AFIELD is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from minors.
- Data Security: We use industry-standard security measures (SSL encryption) to protect your data during transmission.
6. CONSENT & UPDATES
By using our site, you consent to this Privacy Policy. We may update this text as the site grows, but our commitment to your privacy will remain the same.
