Trust & Privacy

This page is maintained by Turnt Tides Charters to answer common questions about how we handle your booking information and payments. It describes our current practices and is not an independent certification or audit attestation.

What we collect

When you book a charter or sign up for updates, we collect the information you provide: name, email address, phone number, trip date, party size, and package selection. Payment card details are entered directly into our payment processor and are never stored on our servers.

How your data is protected

Booking records and newsletter sign-ups are stored in our managed backend with row-level access rules so customer records are not readable by other site visitors. Traffic between your browser and our site is encrypted in transit (HTTPS). Administrative access is limited to Turnt Tides staff.

Payments

Deposits and balance payments are processed by Stripe. Turnt Tides receives confirmation of payment status but does not see or store your full card number, CVC, or bank credentials. Refunds follow the cancellation terms shown at checkout.

Email & marketing

If you sign up for updates, we use your email to send trip news, seasonal offers, and loyalty rewards. Every marketing email includes a one-click unsubscribe link. Booking-related emails (confirmations, payment receipts, departure reminders) are sent for every reservation regardless of marketing preference.

Your choices

You can request a copy of the information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or request deletion of marketing records by emailing the address below. We retain booking records as required for tax, insurance, and U.S. Coast Guard compliance.

Reporting a concern

To report a security concern, suspected unauthorized access, or a privacy question, contact us at reservations_dispatch@turnttides.com or call (859) 567-9367. We aim to acknowledge security reports within two business days.

Last updated July 2026. Turnt Tides Charters is a U.S. Coast Guard licensed and fully insured operator.
