Can I Loop? (“we,” “us”) helps people evaluate used boats against the requirements of the Great Loop. This explains what we collect, why, and what you can do about it. Questions or requests: support@caniloop.net.
We look at which makes, models and years are being researched, in aggregate as counts. That tells us which boats deserve a model profile next.
We do not read your individual list, your notes, your price history, or what you decided about a boat. The exception is when you hand us something — if you ask for help with a specific boat, or send a correction, we obviously read what you sent.
We do not sell or share your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.
Only the service providers needed to run the site — hosting, database, and email delivery — and only what those services need. They process it on our behalf. We do not share your data with advertisers.
We use only what's needed for the site to work and to keep you signed in. No advertising cookies, no third-party tracking.
One page has a video on it, and it does not load until you ask. The guide about boat length carries a video hosted on YouTube. Nothing on that page contacts YouTube while you are reading it — the player is a button until you press it. If you do press it, YouTube can see your IP address and set its own storage, exactly as if you had opened the video on their site. That part is theirs and we cannot speak for it. Do not press it if you would rather they did not.
Your account data for as long as your account is open. Delete a boat and its record and your notes are removed; what survives is the anonymous count that the model was researched, which is not linked to you. Ask us to close your account and we'll delete your personal data, keeping only what we're required to retain.
Wherever you live, you can: see what we hold, correct it, get a copy, or have it deleted. Email support@caniloop.net and we'll do it. We won't treat you differently for asking.
If you're in California — you have the right to know what we collect and why, to delete it, to correct it, and to opt out of sale or sharing. We don't sell or share personal information, so there's nothing to opt out of. You can designate an authorized agent to make a request for you.
If you're in Canada — we collect only what we need for the purposes described above, and we'll tell you before using it for anything else. You can access and correct your information, and you can challenge our handling of it by contacting us. If a breach ever creates a real risk of significant harm to you, we'll notify you and the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
Where your data lives — on servers in the United States. If you're outside the US, you're consenting to it being processed there.
We'll email you about your account and in reply to things you send us — those are part of the service. Anything promotional has an unsubscribe link and we'll honor it. Unsubscribing from promotional email will not stop account or reply emails, because those are how the service works.
Not directed to anyone under 16, and we don't knowingly collect their data.
If Can I Loop? is ever sold or merged, your data may transfer to the new owner, who would be bound by this policy. We'd tell you before that happened.
We'll update the date above, and tell you if anything material changes.
