Privacy Policy

Overview
Restless Lady Fishing Charters ("we", "us", or "our") operates restlesslady.com and provides sport fishing charter services out of Ocean City, Maryland. This policy describes what information we collect from visitors and customers, how we use it, and the choices you have.
We only collect what we need to run the business — booking trips, communicating with guests, and improving the website. We never sell your information.
Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of personal information:
- Booking details — name, email, phone number, trip date, party size, and any notes you provide when requesting a reservation.
- Newsletter sign-ups — email address if you subscribe to fishing reports.
- Contact messages — whatever you send us through contact forms, email, or phone.
- Site usage data — pages visited, device and browser type, approximate location derived from IP, and referral source. Collected through standard server logs and analytics.
How We Use Information
We use the information above to:
- Confirm reservations and process trip payments at the dock
- Contact you about weather, schedule changes, or your booking
- Send newsletter content if you've opted in
- Respond to inquiries and support requests
- Improve the website and understand how visitors use it
- Comply with legal and Coast Guard recordkeeping requirements
Data Retention
We keep booking records for as long as needed to operate the business, respond to post-trip issues, and comply with tax and Coast Guard recordkeeping requirements — typically up to seven years. Newsletter subscribers can unsubscribe at any time, after which their email is removed from active use and deleted within 30 days.
Your Rights
You can always:
- Ask what information we have about you
- Correct inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your personal information
- Opt out of marketing emails via the unsubscribe link
To exercise any of these rights, email us at jdunc777@aol.com. We'll respond within 30 days.
Children's Privacy
Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has submitted information, contact us and we will delete it.

We may update this policy as the business and applicable laws evolve. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Significant changes will be announced via the website or email to newsletter subscribers.
