Privacy Policy

Our Commitment

Welcome to WeBoating.com (the “Website”), a global water adventures marketplace operated by ELITE CARD INC. (“EliteCard“, “we”, “us” or “our”). As the operator of the platform, EliteCard acts as the primary Data Controller in respect of your personal data collected and processed via the Website. Our Website, along with any current or future online stores, mobile applications, and other online products and services (collectively, the “Services”), is committed to responsible information practices and maintaining a high level of personal data protection for all users – customers and vendors alike.

At EliteCard, we value the trust you place in us when you choose to use WeBoating.com to discover, book, or offer unforgettable water experiences. We are dedicated to ensuring the privacy and security of your personal data.

Privacy Statement

This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) explains how information about you is collected, used, disclosed, and otherwise processed by EliteCard. It applies to information we collect when you visit our Website, use our Services (including booking experiences as a customer or listing experiences as a vendor), interact with us online, or when you otherwise communicate with us. This Policy also applies to personal data we may collect offline, such as when you call us or interact with EliteCard in person (e.g., at an industry event).

As a global marketplace, WeBoating.com facilitates connections between customers seeking water adventures and independent vendors offering those experiences. While EliteCard controls the overall platform, vendors may also process your data independently for the purpose of fulfilling bookings. This Policy primarily describes EliteCard’s data practices; however, where data is shared with vendors, it will be noted, and we encourage you to review any separate privacy policies provided by the specific vendors you interact with for their independent data processing activities.

Although we currently do not have a parent company, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under common control with us (collectively, “Affiliates”), we may in the future. You agree that we may share some or all of your personal data with these Affiliates. We will require our Affiliates to comply with this Policy regarding your personal data. If our company or our assets are acquired by another company, that company will possess the personal information collected by us and it will assume the rights and obligations regarding your personal information as described in this Policy.

This Policy does not cover external websites linked from WeBoating.com. Those sites are not governed by this Policy, and if you have questions about how a third-party site uses your information, you’ll need to check that site’s own privacy statement.

What is Personal Data?

For the purpose of this Policy, Personal Data refers to any information enabling us to identify you (or a third party whose personal data you provide us) directly or indirectly. This includes any information incidental to the purchase of goods or services, information you choose to communicate or share with us or third parties while using the Website or Services, or any data that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person.

You may also encounter terms like “Personally Identifiable Information” (PII) or “Personal Information.” While these terms can sometimes be used interchangeably, especially in different legal jurisdictions (e.g., PII being a common American term), we adopt the broader definition of “Personal Data” as per the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”). This means that certain data elements not typically considered PII might still be Personal Data under the GDPR. Therefore, to ensure comprehensive compliance, we adhere to the broader context of what constitutes Personal Data.

We will process your Personal Data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and with the legislation of the country where data should be collected, if applicable, including but not limited to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) and Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

We reserve the right to carry out additional processing as required by law or as part of a criminal or other investigation or proceedings.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully to understand how we collect, use, protect, and otherwise handle your Personal Data in connection with WeBoating.com.

Legal Basis For Processing Personal Data

How We Share Information

In general, we do not share personal information about you with third parties for their direct marketing or advertising purposes without your explicit consent. We primarily share your personal information with third parties for other purposes essential to operating WeBoating.com and providing our Services. For example, we share personal information with:

• Customers and Vendors (Marketplace Operations): A core function of our marketplace is to connect customers and vendors. When you make a booking as a customer, certain necessary information (like your name, contact details, booking specifics, and any special requests) is shared with the vendor to facilitate the experience. Conversely, when a vendor lists an experience, their business name, contact information, location, and service details are made available to customers. This sharing is essential for the completion of bookings, communication regarding experiences, and the provision of services.
• Third Parties and Service Providers: We work with various third-party companies and service providers that help us operate, provide, improve, understand, customize, support, and market our Services. These include:
  • Payment Processors: To securely handle your payments for bookings.

  • Analytics Providers: To help us understand how our Services are used (e.g., Google Analytics).
  • Marketing and Advertising Partners: To help us manage and deliver our own marketing and advertising campaigns, and to measure their effectiveness.
  • Customer Support Providers: To assist with your inquiries and support requests.
  • Geolocation Service Providers: As an integral part of our Services, we share necessary location data with mapping services such as Google Maps, OpenStreet Maps, and GEO my WP to display experience locations, enable proximity searches, and facilitate navigation.
  • Dokan & WooCommerce Add-ons: Information is shared with plugins and add-ons that enable our marketplace functionality, such as booking management, vendor dashboards, and payment gateways. We may use these third parties or service providers to perform any of the actions or activities allowed under this Policy.
• The EliteCard Family of Brands and Companies: This includes oursailing.com and our other affiliates, parents, and subsidiaries. We may share information with these entities for internal administrative purposes, to provide you with seamless service, or for joint marketing initiatives if permitted by law and your preferences.
• Social Media Platforms and Networks: If you choose to use functionalities, plugins, widgets, or tools in connection with our Website (e.g., to log in using a social media account, or to share content), certain information may be shared with or collected by those social media companies (such as Facebook, Google, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram). For more information about what information is shared or collected, and how it is used, please see the applicable social media company’s privacy policy.
• Parties to Business Transactions: In the event of a merger, acquisition, joint venture, sale of assets, reorganization, divestiture, dissolution, bankruptcy, liquidation, or other types of business transactions, personal information may be shared, sold, or transferred. In such cases, the acquiring company will assume the rights and obligations regarding your personal information as described in this Policy.
• Additional Third Parties (Legal and Safety Purposes): We may share personal information with law enforcement, government entities, courts, or other third parties as required or allowed by applicable law, such as for the legal and safety purposes described under the “How We Use Information” section above. This includes efforts to help prevent harm or fraud to us, you, our customers, vendors, or other third parties.
• Upon Your Request or With Your Approval: We may also share personal information with third parties upon your explicit request or with your approval, though we may not always be able to accommodate all requests.

Online Advertising And Third Parties We Work With

We engage with third-party companies for advertising purposes, primarily to serve advertisements across the Internet that are relevant to our own products and services. These companies help us track and categorize your activity and interests over time on our Website and mobile application, and potentially on other third-party websites and mobile applications. They also assist us in identifying the different devices you use to access online content.

We share certain information with these companies, and these companies may collect information—including automatically collected information (such as cookie identifiers, IP addresses, and Browse data)—when you use our Website or mobile application. This collection occurs through methods described in the “How We Collect Information” section above (e.g., using cookies and other automatic collection methods).

These third-party companies may also possess or obtain information about you from your direct interactions with them, from other websites, mobile applications, or companies that they work with, or from your interactions with advertisements they help display to you. The information that these companies collect or that we share may be used to customize or personalize the advertisements that are displayed to you related to WeBoating.com.

While we may share certain personal information with the third-party companies we work with for our own advertising purposes, we do not sell personal information about you to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes. We may, however, share other information in our discretion, including aggregated or de-identified information (which cannot be used to identify you personally), and this may be used by third parties for their marketing, advertising, and other purposes.

For information about the choices you have concerning the online advertising practices described in this section, please refer to the “Your Choices and Access Requests” section below.

Your Choices And Access Requests

We are committed to offering you meaningful choices about how your Personal Data is used and shared. Your choices and rights include:

• Wish List Choices: If we offer the ability to create a Wish List, you may update your Wish List privacy settings to “Private” (not searchable) to help protect your Wish List information from being publicly searched on our site, or you may select “Public” (searchable). To help protect your privacy, we initially set your Wish List account to a “Private” setting.
• Mobile Location Choices: You may choose not to provide precise location data to us in connection with your use of our mobile application or browser by declining any prompt requesting location information, and by customizing your mobile device settings to prevent the sharing of location information. While our platform’s functionality heavily relies on location for searching and displaying experiences, you maintain control over your device’s settings. If you disable location services, certain location-dependent features (e.g., “experiences near me”) may be limited or unavailable. We may also collect approximate location data (e.g., from your IP address) even if precise location services are disabled.

Subject to applicable law, you have the following rights regarding your Personal Data. To exercise these rights, please contact us using the methods specified in the “Additional Information and Contacting Us” section below.

Security And Fraud

We take steps to help protect the confidentiality and security of the Personal Data you share with us through our Website and mobile application. We implement a variety of security measures, including technical and organizational safeguards, designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include data encryption, firewalls, and access controls.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Information transmitted through the Internet may not be perfectly secure, and we are unable to guarantee the complete security of your Personal Data.

We encourage you to take proactive steps to help protect the confidentiality and security of your account and Personal Data, including by doing the following:

• Reviewing your account periodically and immediately reporting any unexpected activity or unrecognized information.
• Installing the latest security updates and anti-virus software on your computer or device to help prevent malware and viruses.
• Using strong, complex passwords (a minimum of 12 alpha/numeric characters with a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters like !@#$%^&*()_+~`).
• Not using the same password on more than one website.
• Considering the use of a reliable password manager to securely store and generate unique passwords.
• Not sharing your password with others.
• Password protecting your computer and mobile device.
• Signing out/logging off of website sessions, especially when using a public or shared computer.

You may encounter websites, emails, or texts that attempt to lure you into providing personal information with fraudulent offers such as gift cards or discounts (phishing). EliteCard does not sponsor or endorse these offers. If you become aware of any potentially fraudulent activity on a website or in an email or text that purports to be from us, please forward the information to us so we can investigate and follow up.

Data Retention

We retain your Personal Data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. The exact retention period depends on the type of data, the purpose of processing, and any applicable legal or regulatory obligations.

Generally, we retain Personal Data for the duration of your active account or vendor relationship with us. This includes data necessary to:

• Provide you with the Services you requested (e.g., maintaining your account, facilitating bookings, managing vendor listings).
• Perform our contractual obligations (e.g., payment processing, customer support).
• Comply with legal obligations (e.g., tax, accounting, anti-fraud laws).
• Resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.

If you close your account or withdraw your consent for certain processing activities, we may still retain some of your Personal Data for a limited period if required by law or for legitimate business purposes (e.g., fraud prevention, audit purposes, or to comply with our retention policies). In cases where we no longer need your Personal Data, we will securely delete or anonymize it. Anonymized data, which cannot be linked back to you, may be retained for longer periods for analytical and statistical purposes.

We strongly encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit to understand their data collection, use, and disclosure practices.

Browsers Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers may transmit “Do Not Track” signals to websites with which the browser communicates. There is no industry standard governing what, if anything, websites should do when they receive these signals. While we strive to offer you choices when you use our Website and mobile application, we do not promise that we will be able to receive or honor web browser “Do Not Track” signals. As technology evolves, we may adopt a standard if one is established.

California Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), provides you with specific rights regarding your personal information. These rights include the right to know what personal information is collected about you, the right to request deletion of your personal information, the right to correct inaccurate personal information, and the right to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. As stated in the “How We Share Information” section, EliteCard does not sell personal information to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes unless you specifically request or consent to us doing so.

International Customers

ELITE CARD Inc. is a Canadian company based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Your Personal Data will primarily be processed in Canada. However, as a global marketplace, we operate with users and service providers located in various countries worldwide. Therefore, your Personal Data may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries outside of your country of residence, including, but not limited to, Canada, the United States of America, Germany, and other jurisdictions where our vendors, service providers, or affiliates operate.

Please be aware that the laws concerning data protection and privacy in these countries may differ from, and in some cases, may not offer the same level of protection as, the laws in your own country. For example, data transferred to the United States may be subject to access by U.S. government agencies under U.S. law.

When transferring Personal Data from the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom (UK) to countries that have not been deemed to provide an adequate level of data protection by the European Commission or the UK government (as applicable), we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as:

• Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs): We implement Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission (or the UK equivalent) for transfers of Personal Data to third countries. These clauses are contractual commitments between us and the recipient of the data, designed to protect your Personal Data.
• Necessity for Contract Performance: Transfers may also occur if necessary for the performance of a contract between you and EliteCard (e.g., to process a booking with a vendor located in a different country), or for pre-contractual steps taken at your request.
• Your Explicit Consent: In limited circumstances, and where other legal bases are not applicable, we may transfer your data based on your explicit consent.

By using our Services, you understand and acknowledge that your Personal Data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your country of residence, and you consent to such transfers when necessary for the provision of services.
