8. Choice and Ways You Can Opt Out
You have the right to opt out of certain uses and disclosures of your Personal Information, as set out in this Privacy Policy.
8.1 General
Where you have consented to Seagull’s processing of your Personal Information or Sensitive Personal Information, you may withdraw that consent at any time and opt out by following the instructions in this section.
Additionally, before we use Personal Information for any new purpose not originally authorized by you, we will provide information regarding the new purpose and give you the opportunity to opt out.
Prior to disclosing sensitive Personal Information to a third party or processing sensitive Personal Information for a purpose other than its original purpose or the purpose authorized subsequently by you Seagull will endeavor to obtain your e explicit consent (opt-in). Where your consent for the processing of Personal Information is otherwise required by law or contract, Seagull will comply with the law or contract.

An “Unsubscribe” button will be provided at the top or bottom of each opt-in mailing list email communications sent by Seagull so that you can opt-out. However, we may continue to send transaction-related emails regarding reservations, programs or services you have requested in response to such request. We may need to send you certain communications regarding the Seagull programs and services and you will not be able to opt out of those communications – e.g., communications regarding updates to our Terms of Service or this Privacy Policy. We maintain telephone “do not call” lists and “do not mail” lists as mandated by law.

8.4 “Do Not Track”
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. DNT is a way for users to inform websites and services that they do not want certain information about their webpage visits collected over time and across websites or online services. Some Internet browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the online services that you visit. There is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context. Like many websites and online services, Seagull does not alter its practices when it receives a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.

We may use certain tools offered by third parties that enable such third parties to collect or receive information about actions users take on: (a) the Seagull Site and elsewhere on the internet through use of cookies, pixel tags and other storage technologies; or (b) a Seagull mobile application and other mobile applications, in order to provide interest-based advertising. Interest-based advertising is advertising that tries to make the ads you see more interesting and relevant to you based on the types of sites you visit online and other information that does not personally identify you. Advertisements on Third-Party websites that contain the AdChoices link and that link to this Privacy Policy may have been directed to you based on anonymous, non-Personal Information collected by advertising partners over time and across websites. These advertisements provide a mechanism to opt-out of the advertising partners’ use of this information for interest-based advertising purposes. You can opt out of the collection and use of your information for interest-based advertising by going to http://optout.aboutads.info or http://www.youronlinechoices.eu/ to limit collection through the Seagull Site or by configuring the settings on your mobile device to limit ad tracking through the mobile applications. Even if you opt-out, we may still collect and use non-Personal Information regarding your activities on our Websites and/or information from the advertisements on third-party websites for non-interest based advertising purposes, such as to determine the effectiveness of the advertisements.
9. How and When We Disclose Information to Third Parties
In addition to receiving your Personal Information from third parties, Seagull may so share or disclose the Personal and non-Personal information we collect or receive.

9.2 When You Agree to Receive Information from Third Parties or Request That We Share Your Information
You may be presented with an opportunity to receive information and/or marketing offers from one or more third parties. If you agree at that time to have your Personal Information shared (by opting in or choosing not to opt out at that time), your Personal Information will be disclosed to that third party (or parties) and will be subject to the privacy policy and practices of that third party. If you later decide that you no longer want to receive communications from a third party, you will need to contact that third party directly. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of third parties.
9.3 Administrative and Legal Reasons
We reserve the right to disclose any information (including Personal Information) if we believe such action is necessary: (i) to conform to legal requirements, to comply with legal process or a subpoena, or at the request of a governmental entity conducting an investigation; (ii) to collect amounts owed to Seagull (iii) to enforce Seagull policies or contracts or protect and defend the legal rights or property of Seagull, our Consumers, Partners, the Seagull Site or its users, or any other party; (iii) if we in good faith believe that such action is permitted by law; or (iv) in an emergency, to protect the health and safety of our Consumers, Partners, users or the general public. In addition, from time to time, server logs may be reviewed for security purposes – e.g., to detect unauthorized activity on the Site. In such cases, server log data containing IP addresses may be shared with law enforcement bodies in order that they may identify users in connection with their investigation of the unauthorized activities.
9.4 Business Transfers & Transitions
Seagull may share your information, including Personal Information, with its parent, subsidiaries, and affiliates, primarily for business and operational purposes. In the event Seagull goes through a business transition (such as a merger, acquisition by another company, bankruptcy or sale of all or a portion of its assets, including, without limitation, during the course of any due diligence process), your Personal Information will likely be among the assets transferred. By providing your Personal Information, you agree that we may transfer such information to the acquiring entity without your further consent.

If you choose to enter a Promotion, Personal Information may be disclosed to third parties or the public in connection with the administration of such Promotion, including, without limitation, in connection with winner selection, prize fulfillment, and as required by law or permitted by the Promotion’s official rules (such as on a winners list).
10. Rights of Access, Rectification, Erasure and Restriction
There is currently no account registration or “My Profile” section to our site, but this may be added at a future date. Should you opt in, you are responsible for maintaining and updating, as applicable, your account registration data with current, accurate, and complete information. You may view, update, delete, and/or edit the registration data you have provided to Seagull by logging in to your account and going to “My Profile” section, and following the appropriate instructions.

Seagull will make good faith efforts to implement requested changes in our active databases. Note, however, that we may keep information you update or change for Seagull’s administrative purposes. Also, it is not always possible to completely remove or delete all of your information from our databases, and such requests will be processed in line with local laws.
Although Seagull makes good faith efforts to provide Individuals with access to their Personal Information, there may be circumstances in which Seagull is unable to provide access, including but not limited to: where the information contains legal privilege, would compromise others’ privacy or other legitimate rights, where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to the individual’s privacy in the case in question or where it is commercially proprietary. If Seagull determines that access should be restricted in any particular instance, we will provide you with an explanation of why that determination has been made and a contact point for any further inquiries. To protect your privacy, Seagull will take commercially reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access to or making any changes to your Personal Information.
11. Retention
Seagull retains the Personal Information we receive as described in this Privacy Policy for as long as you use our Website(s)s or as necessary to fulfill the purpose(s) for which it was collected, provide our products and services, resolve disputes, establish legal defenses, conduct audits, pursue legitimate business purposes, enforce our agreements and comply with applicable laws.
12. Protection of Personal Information by Seagull
The security of all Personal Information provided to Seagull is important to us, and we employ commercially reasonable security methods and technologies to help secure your Personal Information. However, no data transmission over the Internet or storage of information can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while Seagull strives to protect your Personal Information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Seagull, and you do so at your own risk. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your own passwords.

Seagull does not knowingly solicit or collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13 (and in certain jurisdictions under the age of 16). If we learn that we have collected Personal Information directly from a child under the age of 13 (and in certain jurisdictions under the age of 16), we will promptly delete that information.
If you are under the age of 13 (and in certain jurisdictions under the age of 16), please do not submit any Personal Information to Seagull.
If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child under the age of 13 (and in certain jurisdictions under the age of 16), has directly provided us with Personal Information without his or her consent, he or she should contact us and we will delete such information from our files.

14.5 California Residents
California’s “Shine the Light” Law: Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1798.83, residents of the State of California have the right to request from companies conducting business in California certain information relating to third parties to which the company has disclosed certain categories of Personal Information during the preceding year for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Alternatively, the law provides that a company may comply, as Seagull does, by disclosing in its privacy policy that it provides consumers choice (opt-out or opt-in) regarding sharing Personal Information with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes, and information on how to exercise that choice. As stated above in this Privacy Policy, Seagull provides you with a choice prior to sharing your Personal Information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. If you do not opt-in or if you choose to opt-out at the time Seagull offers that choice, Seagull does not share your information with that identified third party for its direct marketing purposes.
If you are a California resident and you have questions about our practices with respect to sharing information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes and your ability to exercise choice, please send your request by email to seagulloffice@seagullvacations.com or write to us at: P.O. Box 1559, Wells, Maine 04090. You must put the statement “Your California Privacy Rights” in the subject field of your email or include it in your writing if you choose to write to us at the designated mailing address. You must include your name, street address, city, state, and ZIP code. We are not responsible for notices that are not labeled or sent properly, or do not have complete information. Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per person each year.
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA): California residents may have certain additional rights under the CCPA such as the right to request that a business subject to the CCPA provide access to their personal information or delete their personal information, and the right to opt out of sales of personal information.

Code §§1798.100-1798.199) Although Seagull does not do business in the State of California, if you are a California resident you may contact us at 1-800-573-2485 if you have questions regarding our processing of your personal information.
