Planet Earth Adventures, LLC, which also is known as discoverak.com (collectively, “Planet Earth Adventures, LLC” “we” or “our”) understand the importance of our customers’ privacy. This Privacy Policy tells you what information we collect about you when you visit this website (our “Site”) or use an online application that contains a link to this Privacy Policy. Our Privacy Policy also tells you how we use, share and protect this information; what choices you have about how this information is used; and how you can access and update this information. Our Site offers certain content, activities, games and services, which are referred to as the “Services.” This Privacy Policy applies to information collected on the Site where this Privacy Policy is posted.

INFORMATION COLLECTED
Information You Provide Directly to Planet Earth Adventures.
If you are interested in obtaining information, products or services from Planet Earth Adventures, or in participating in certain activities on this website, you may need to provide us with information about yourself.

For example:

  • If you book a tour with us, we ask for your name, postal address, email address, telephone number and your credit card number.

  • If you are booking a tour for another person, we will ask you for that person’s name, postal address and phone number in order to enable us to contact that other person.

  • If you participate in an activity such as a survey, we may also ask you to provide other types of information such as gender and personal interests, which we may associate with personally identifiable information that we have obtained about you.

In addition, we may combine personally identifiable information that you have provided to us with other information that is publicly available or that we receive from other sources.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT AUTOMATICALLY
In addition to information you choose to provide to us, we also use standard Internet technologies to collect automatically certain additional information.

For example:

  • IP Address. When you come to our Site, we collect your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, which identifies the computer or service provider that you use to access the Site. We may use IP addresses to collect information regarding the frequency with which specific visitors visit various parts of our Site. We may combine this information with personally identifiable information that we have collected to make our Site and our communications to you more targeted to your interests.

  • Cookies. Our Site also uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on a user’s computer and allow websites to remember information about users. We use cookies for a variety of purposes in order to enhance the quality of our Site. We use transient (also called “session ID”) cookies to provide continuity from page to page. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. We also use persistent cookies. Persistent cookies allow our online store and certain other parts of our Site to recognize your browser when you return after your first visit to that part of our Site. Cookies allow us to personalize your return visits to our Site and to save you time during certain activities, such as checking out from our online store. You have the choice to set your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. (Each browser is different, so check the "Help" menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.) It is up to you whether to allow us to send you cookies. However, if you do not accept cookies from us, your ability to use some areas of our Site will be limited, such as our shopping cart feature or online games.

  • Web beacons and other technologies. The Site uses other tracking tools, including web beacons. Web beacons are images on the Site (or in emails that the Site sends to you) that help us determine what parts of the Site you have visited, whether you have opened an email that we have sent to you, or otherwise to measure the effectiveness of the Site. These technical methods may involve the transmission of information directly to us or to a service provider authorized by us to collect information on our behalf.

The information we collect automatically may be combined with information that is personally identifiable so that we can make our Site and communications more interesting to you.

  • to communicate with you about the Site or other products or services in which you may be interested, or to respond to your inquiries or comments;

INFORMATION SHARING AND DISCLOSURE

  • with entities that provide services on our behalf, including Site development, maintenance and support, payment processing, email distribution, and promotions management, only to the extent that these entities need the information to perform their services or as required by law, unless any additional use or sharing of the information is separately permitted under another provision of this Privacy Policy;

  • with identified entities whose products or services you specifically use or request to receive while you use the Site;

  • with other selected third parties so that they may send you promotional materials about goods and services that they offer, but you have the opportunity to opt out of our sharing personally identifiable information about you as described below in the section entitled “Your Choices,” and we will not share your email address with third parties for promotional purposes unless you specifically agree to such sharing;

  • when we believe that doing so is required by law, may be necessary to protect any person’s property, rights, or safety, or to investigate a potential violation of law, will help to enforce any terms of use or other legal agreement, or will help resolve disputes that arise in the ordinary course of business, or in the event of a corporate transaction, such as a divestiture, merger, consolidation, or asset sale;

  • in aggregated or other non-personally identifiable form; or

YOUR CHOICES
We understand the importance of protecting our customers’ privacy, and we therefore provide you with the opportunity to opt-out of having your personally identifiable information used or disclosed for certain purposes.

You can opt out of receiving promotional communications from Planet Earth Adventures, LLC., or request that we not share personally identifiable information about you with third parties for the third parties’ marketing purposes, by contacting us at:

Planet Earth Adventures, LLC.
1791 Hollybrook Circle
Anchorage, AK 99507

Because we plan our communications in advance, it may take several weeks for your request to become effective. If you continue to receive our communications in error after expressing an opt-out preference, please let us know so that we can investigate the situation.

THIRD PARTY SITES
If you click on or interact with a hyperlink or advertisement that you find on the Site, you may leave our Site or send information to a different website. Our Privacy Policy does not apply to your interactions with other websites, even if you find a link to them on our Site, and so you should read the privacy policy of the third-party website provider to see how your personally identifiable information will be treated on its site.

INFORMATION SECURITY
The security and confidentiality of your information is extremely important to us, and we take a number of steps to safeguard any personally identifiable information or credit card information that you provide to us. We use data encryption technology to help protect against loss, misuse or alteration of your credit card information. Secure Socket Layers (SSLs) encrypt the credit card information sent between your computer and our database. However, no method of transmitting or storing electronic data is ever completely secure, and therefore we cannot warrant or guarantee that such information will never be accessed, used or released in a manner that is inconsistent with this policy.

PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION IN USER CONTENT
Some sections of our Site may allow users to post or transmit messages, comments, screen names, computer files and other materials. If you choose to make personally identifiable information public through these Services, Planet Earth Adventures, LLC. will consider that information public and will not limit its disclosure in the manner described here.

CHANGES IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time by posting the most recent version of the Policy on the Site, along with an indication of the date on which the Policy was amended most recently. If we make any material changes in the way we collect, use, and/or share personally identifiable information that we collect about you through the Site, we will notify you by sending you an email at the last email address that you provided us and/or by prominently posting notice of the changes on the Site. In any event, changes to this Privacy Policy may affect our use of personally identifiable information that you provided us prior to our notification to you of the changes.
