Who we are<\/h2>\r\n<p>BayBoater Marine LLC<br \/>482 Bayview Dr<br \/>Harkers Island, NC 28531<br \/>Email: <a href=\"mailto:sales@bayboatermarine.com\">sales@bayboatermarine.com<\/a><br \/><br \/><\/p>\r\n<p>If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we are the controller of personal data described in this policy, unless a payment or shipping provider acts as an independent controller for its own processing.<\/p>\r\n<h2 class=\"mt-6 mb-2 font-semibold text-2xl\" data-streamdown=\"heading-2\">2. Information we collect<\/h2>\r\n<p>We collect information you give us, information created when you use the Site, and information from service providers that help us run the store.<\/p>\r\n<p><span class=\"font-semibold\" data-streamdown=\"strong\">Account and order information<\/span><br \/>If you create an account or check out, WooCommerce stores details such as your name, email address, billing and shipping addresses, phone number, order history, and account credentials (passwords are stored in hashed form by WordPress).<\/p>\r\n<p><span class=\"font-semibold\" data-streamdown=\"strong\">Payment information<\/span><br \/>Payments are processed by our payment provider(s), such as [Stripe, PayPal, or other]. We typically receive confirmation of payment, a partial card identifier (for example, last four digits), and transaction IDs.

WooCommerce and WordPress also use cookies and similar technologies for cart contents, login sessions, and checkout.<\/p>\r\n<h2 class=\"mt-6 mb-2 font-semibold text-2xl\" data-streamdown=\"heading-2\">3. How we use information<\/h2>\r\n<p>We use personal information to:<\/p>\r\n<ul class=\"list-disc list-outside whitespace-normal ps-6 marker:text-secondary\" data-streamdown=\"unordered-list\">\r\n<li class=\"py-1 [&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" data-streamdown=\"list-item\">Process and fulfill orders, including payment, shipping, and customer support<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"py-1 [&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" data-streamdown=\"list-item\">Create and manage your account<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"py-1 [&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" data-streamdown=\"list-item\">Send order confirmations, shipping updates, and service messages<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"py-1 [&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" data-streamdown=\"list-item\">Prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"py-1 [&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" data-streamdown=\"list-item\">Comply with legal, tax, and accounting duties<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"py-1 [&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" data-streamdown=\"list-item\">Legal bases under GDPR\/UK GDPR, where they apply, include contract (fulfilling your order), legitimate interests (security, basic analytics, and improving the store), consent (non-essential cookies and some marketing), and legal obligation (tax and accounting records).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2 class=\"mt-6 mb-2 font-semibold text-2xl\" data-streamdown=\"heading-2\">4.
