3. Cookies
This website uses cookies and similar technologies.
Some cookies are necessary for Squarespace to operate the website properly and securely. These cookies are used regardless of whether you consent to non-essential cookies.
This website also uses Squarespace analytics and performance cookies. These cookies help us understand website traffic and visitor activity and are used only after you have acknowledged the site's cookie-consent banner.
We also use a cookie-consent banner that allows visitors to manage their preferences regarding non-essential cookies.
Third-party services used on this website may process information or use cookies or similar technologies independently of Squarespace. Their practices are described below and are governed by their own privacy policies.
4. Newsletter
If you choose to subscribe to the Fish Untamed newsletter, we collect:
Your first name
Your last name
Your email address
Newsletter subscriptions are managed and delivered through Mailchimp, our third-party email marketing provider. We provide this information to Mailchimp so that it can maintain our mailing list and send newsletters to subscribers on our behalf.
We use a double opt-in process. After submitting the newsletter signup form, you must confirm your subscription through an email from Mailchimp before you are added to our mailing list.
You may unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in our emails. You may also contact us directly to request removal from our mailing list.
Mailchimp may collect information about interactions with our emails, such as whether messages are opened or links are clicked, depending on the features we use. Mailchimp's handling of your information is governed by its own privacy policy and terms.
Signing up for the newsletter is voluntary and is separate from contacting us through the website's contact form.
5. Contact Form
The website includes a contact form that allows visitors to contact us directly.
When you submit the contact form, we collect:
Your first name
Your last name
Your email address
The contents of your message
Any other information you voluntarily include in your message
We use this information to receive and respond to your inquiry and to communicate with you about your message.
Contact-form submissions are delivered to our Gmail account and may be retained in our email records as reasonably necessary to respond to and manage correspondence.
The contact form uses Google reCAPTCHA to help prevent spam and automated submissions. Google may process information about your browser, device, and interactions with the form in connection with its reCAPTCHA service.
Submitting the contact form does not subscribe you to the Fish Untamed newsletter.
6. Embedded Podcast Players
Podcast episode pages on this website contain embedded audio players provided by Megaphone, a podcast publishing platform owned by Spotify.
The podcast players are embedded using code provided by Megaphone. When a page containing an embedded player is loaded or when the player is used, Megaphone may receive technical information associated with the request, such as your IP address, browser, device, and information relating to use of the player.
Megaphone may also process information relating to podcast listening and advertising. The processing of information by Megaphone and Spotify is governed by their respective privacy policies and terms.
Fish Untamed does not directly embed a Spotify player on its website. The Spotify links on the site are ordinary links to Spotify.
7. Links to Other Websites
This website contains ordinary links to third-party websites and services, including:
Instagram
Apple Podcasts
Spotify
These are simply links to external websites. Clicking one of these links does not automatically subscribe you to, follow, or otherwise enroll you in the corresponding service.
Once you leave Fish Untamed and visit a third-party website, that website's own privacy policy and terms apply. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites.
