New to River Hatch?
River Hatch (“River Hatch”, “we”, “us”) operates riverhatch.com, a fly fishing reference and fly box planning service. Our mailing address is 4611 Ortega Blvd, Jacksonville, FL 32210. Questions about this policy go to peter@riverhatch.com.
You can browse rivers, months and fly selections without giving us anything. We only collect personal information when you choose to register.
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| Name | To address you, and to label the fly boxes you save |
| Email address | To sign you in, and to send what you asked for |
| City and state | To understand which waters matter to our users, and to suggest nearby rivers |
| Mobile phone number | Account recovery, and text updates only if you asked for them |
| Your fly boxes | The patterns, sizes and quantities you save, so they are there next time |
| Reports and photographs | Only if you publish one. See “Reports you choose to publish” below. |
| Basic usage data | Pages viewed and rough location from IP, to see what people use and to keep the service secure |
We do not collect your street address, your date of birth, or payment details. We do not sell anything on this site today.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share it with advertisers or data brokers.
Everything above is private to you. Reports are the one exception, and only when you choose to publish one.
A published report shows your first name and last initial, your home state, the river and section, your photograph, and anything you write. Anyone can see it, including people who are not signed in and search engines. Your email address and phone number are never shown.
We deliberately do not publish precise locations — river and named section only. Please do not put an exact spot, a private access point or anyone else’s details in the text of a report.
You can delete a report at any time and it will be removed from the site. Copies may persist briefly in caches or search engine indexes outside our control. Ask us at peter@riverhatch.com if you need a report taken down urgently.
Marketing email and text messages are opt-in and separate from your account. Ticking neither box still gives you a full account. Every marketing email carries an unsubscribe link; reply STOP to any text to end texts. We will still send you essential account messages, such as a sign-in link you requested.
We use service providers who process data on our behalf under contract, and only to provide the service to you:
We may also disclose information if legally required, or to protect our rights or someone's safety. If the business is ever sold or merged, your information may transfer as part of that, and we will tell you first.
We keep your account and fly boxes for as long as your account is open. If you ask us to delete your account we will remove your personal information within 30 days, except anything we must keep by law. Aggregate statistics that cannot identify you may be retained.
Wherever you live in the United States, you may ask us to:
Write to peter@riverhatch.com and we will respond within 45 days. Deletion requests are completed within 30 days. We will not deny you service, charge you a different price, or give you a lesser experience for exercising any of these rights.
To protect your account we need to verify who you are before acting on a request. For most requests, sending your message from the email address on the account is enough. You may also use an authorised agent, who will need written permission from you.
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the CPRA, you have the rights listed above plus the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and to limit the use of sensitive personal information.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. We have not done so in the preceding twelve months. We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of anyone under 16. We do not collect sensitive personal information as that term is defined by the CCPA.
The categories of personal information we collect are identifiers (name, email address, phone number), geolocation at city level (the city and state you tell us), commercial information (the fly boxes you build), and internet activity (basic usage of this site). We collect them for the purposes described above, from you directly and from your use of the site, and we keep them as described in “How long we keep it”.
Residents of Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana and other states with comprehensive privacy laws have substantially the same rights, including the right to appeal a refused request. If we decline a request we will tell you why, and you may appeal by replying to that message. Write to us at the address above.
River Hatch is operated from the United States and intended for anglers fishing United States waters. If you are in the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area, note that your information will be processed in the United States, and that this policy is not written to satisfy the UK or EU GDPR. Contact us before registering if that matters to you.
Data is transmitted over HTTPS and held with reputable hosting providers. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Tell us promptly at peter@riverhatch.com if you believe your account has been accessed without permission.
River Hatch is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.
We do not use cookies. There are no advertising cookies, no analytics cookies and no third-party tracking on this site.
We do use your browser's local storage, which is a different thing and is used only to make the service work: it holds your sign-in session so you are not asked to sign in on every page, and a copy of your fly boxes so they appear instantly. Nothing in it is used to track you or shared with anyone. Clearing your browser data removes it, and you will simply be asked to sign in again.
We may update this policy. We will change the date above, and for significant changes we will tell you by email or by a notice on the site.
By using riverhatch.com you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. We are River Hatch, 4611 Ortega Blvd, Jacksonville, FL 32210, contactable at peter@riverhatch.com.
River Hatch is a reference and planning tool. It is not fishing instruction, not a safety service and not a source of legal information.
River Hatch lets you look up fly patterns commonly used on a given river in a given month, and assemble and save fly box lists. Fly recommendations are general guidance compiled from published sources and local knowledge. They are opinion, not fact, and they do not guarantee that you will catch fish.
Do not scrape, bulk-download or republish our river and fly data; resell or redistribute the service; attempt to break, overload or gain unauthorised access to it; upload unlawful content; or use it to break the law.
The fly boxes you create remain yours. You grant us the licence needed to store and display them back to you, and to use anonymous, aggregated patterns of use to improve the service. We will not publish an identifiable fly box without your permission.
The river data, fly catalog, text, imagery and software are owned by us or our licensors and protected by copyright. You may use them for your own personal, non-commercial fishing. Everything else needs our written permission.
We provide the service “as is” and “as available”. We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of it, and we do not promise it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the data is complete or accurate.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, River Hatch and its owners are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, nor for personal injury, death, property damage, legal penalty or lost fishing time arising from your use of the service or reliance on its information. Our total liability will not exceed the greater of $100 or the amount you paid us in the previous 12 months.
Some jurisdictions do not allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.
You agree to indemnify River Hatch against claims arising from your use of the service or your breach of these terms.
We may update these terms. We will change the date above, and continued use after a change means you accept the revised terms.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Disputes go to the state or federal courts located in Duval County, Florida.
