During registration, you may be required to submit contact information and other personal information (e.g., your address, phone number, and unique identifier). We use this data to contact you about the Site’s services and to verify your identity.

Cookies The castawaysenergy.com website uses cookies, tracking pixels, and related technologies. Cookies are small data files that our platform serves and stores on your device. Our site uses cookies dropped by us or third parties for various purposes, including operating and personalizing the website. Additionally, we may use cookies to monitor your site usage, enabling us to target ads to you on other websites.

Log Files Your computer reaches us via an Internet Protocol, or “IP,” address. This data can tell us things such as what part of the world you are connecting from. We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the Site, track a user’s movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.

Information Sharing We may provide or sell aggregated demographic information to other companies. Aggregated information means information that is a collection of data about many users and from which no data specific to any one user can be obtained. We also work with other companies, like those that host our site, which may have access to some data on our servers. The data is confidential and can only be used as stated in the contract.

Links This Privacy Statement applies solely to information collected by the Site. The website contains links to other sites. We are not liable for or aware of other sites’ privacy policies. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our Site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that may collect user information.

Security We take steps to protect our users’ personal information. E-mail sent to and from the Site may not be secure. Users should not send confidential information via unsecured email. Communications to and from castawaysenergy.com will not be encrypted.

The Secure Socket Layer (“SSL”) establishes a “secured session” for the transmission of some information to and from the Site. The Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encrypts the information you send over the Internet between your computer and ours, ensuring its confidentiality during transit. The use of SSL requires that you have an SSL-compatible browser. Currently, Netscape 2.0 or higher, Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 2.0 or higher, and the latest versions of Safari, Mozilla Firefox, & Google Chrome are all SSL-compatible. Older versions of browsers will not support SSL sessions. If you do not have a browser with SSL capabilities, you can download one from a Netscape or Microsoft website.

Our computers themselves are a segregated network through firewall technology. We use anti-viral software and restrict access to sensitive areas on our computers. Every one of our users should install and use, and keep up-to-date, software that screens for viruses and other harmful files that could damage data on systems operated or used by those users.

Surveys From time to time, our Site may request information from users via surveys. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary, and the user, therefore, has a choice whether or not to disclose responsive information.

Disclosure for Law Enforcement Purposes In addition to the aforementioned circumstances, we may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, subpoena, or as requested by another government or law enforcement authority, or in our good faith belief that disclosure is otherwise necessary or advisable, including, without limitation, to protect your rights and those of others with whom we do business, or when we have reason to believe that disclosing the information is necessary to identify, contact, or prior to the release of any of your information, we will give you written notice unless doing so would violate the law or put you or another party in danger.

Review and Correction of Information If a user desires to change personally identifiable information or no longer wishes to use our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update, or remove that user’s personal data provided to us. Sending Castaways Energy an email will start this process.

Modification We may change or modify our privacy policies from time to time. Any such changes or modifications will be effective immediately once they are posted on the Site. This Privacy Statement was last updated on June 26, 2023. We recommend that you periodically review this page. We do this so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it. We will utilize the collected information in compliance with the Privacy Statement.
