Huck Adventures, Inc.

Privacy Policy

Who We Are?

The name of our company is Huck Adventures, Inc., and we’re a company formed in Delaware with offices in Boulder, Colorado, in the United States, that provides app-based services to outdoor recreationists for planning trips, organizing groups, booking locations, selecting equipment—all tailored to the user’s specific interests, characteristics, and abilities.

 

What Is This?

This is a privacy policy and the reason we have it is to tell you how we collect, manage, store, and use your information.

Just so we’re clear, whenever we say“we,” “us,” “our,” or “ourselves”, we’re talking about Huck Adventures, Inc. and whenever we say “you” or “your,” we’re talking about the person or business who has decided to use our services. And since we do a lot of different stuff, when we talk about our services, we mean any of our websites or apps; or any features, products, graphics, text, images, photos, audio, video, or similar things we use.

 

Why Are We Showing You This?

We value and respect your privacy. That is why we strive to only use your information when we think that doing so improves your experience in using our services. If you feel that we could improve in this mission in any way, or if you have a complaint or concern, please let us know by sending us your feedback to the following email address: Privacy@huckadventures.com.

Our goal is to be as transparent and open about our use of information and data as possible, so that our users can benefit from both the way they provide information and how we use it.

This privacy policy should be read along with our Terms of Service, posted at https://Huckadventure.com/termsofservice. That’s another big part of what we do, so please review it and follow its process for questions or concerns about what it says there.
