What Information We Collect About You
SNS Outfitters & Guides collects information we need to provide our hunt guiding and outfitting services to you. To complete hunting trip reservations, we generally collect your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, credit card information and certain other types of personally identifiable information ("PII"). In the reservation process and during the course of providing guiding services to you, we may collect additional PII, such as your dietary requirements, travel preferences, medical conditions that may require the special attention of our employees during trips, and similar information.
We also receive PII when you request a catalog, subscribe to our e-mail list, or provide feedback through our website or by other means (such as by e-mail, telephone or regular mail). This PII may include additional types of information (such as the types of hunting trips that you indicate would be of interest to you).
In addition, we may receive your PII from a third party. For example, a friend may request us to send you a catalog through our website, in which case we may be provided with your name, address, e-mail address and other PII. From time to time we may engage in cooperative marketing initiatives with other companies and receive your PII accordingly.
Children's Data. Customers of SNS Outfitters & Guides must be 12 years of age or older. We never knowingly target or collect PII directly from children.
