WEBSITE USE INFORMATION AND COOKIES

Similar to other websites, our Website utilizes a standard technology called “cookies” and web server logs to collect information about how our Website is used. Information gathered through cookies and web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, and time spent at our Website.

What Are Cookies? A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a website, that site’s computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but to protect your privacy, your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.

How Do We Use Cookie Information? Cookies, in conjunction with our web server’s log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people visiting our Website and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us gather feedback to constantly improve our Website. Cookies do not allow us to gather any Personal Information about you, and we do not generally store any Personal Information that you provided to us in your cookies.

We may use third-party services such as Google Analytics that collect, monitor, and analyze visitor data to help us understand how our Website is used. We may also use advertising platforms such as Google Ads or Meta Ads that use cookie data to serve relevant ads to visitors across the web.

To opt out of data collection, you can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Website. To disable cookies, go to your browser’s settings and turn off cookies. If you have a Google account, you can manage your ad preferences in your Ad Settings.

Do Not Track Signals Some browsers include a “Do Not Track” (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Our Website does not currently respond to DNT signals. If a standard for DNT compliance is adopted in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy accordingly.

IOWA CONSUMER DATA PROTECTION ACT (ICDPA)

If you are an Iowa resident, you may have certain rights under the Iowa Consumer Data Protection Act (ICDPA), effective January 1, 2025, depending on whether our data processing activities meet the thresholds established by that law. These rights may include:

  • The right to confirm whether we are processing your Personal Information and to access that information;
  • The right to delete Personal Information you have provided to us;
  • The right to obtain a portable copy of your Personal Information; and
  • The right to opt out of the processing of your Personal Information for targeted advertising purposes.

To submit a request or inquire about your rights under the ICDPA, please contact us at aaron@aarongoesoutdoors.com. We will respond to verifiable requests within the timeframes required by applicable law.

We do not control such websites and are not responsible for their contents or the privacy or other practices of such websites. It is up to you to read and fully understand their privacy policies.
