Business Transactions
If Saddleback is involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, financing, bankruptcy, or similar business transaction, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
If you voluntarily provide your email address, you may receive communications from Saddleback about products, services, events, conditions, promotions, news, and other information.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link included in the email. We will honor your request within the period required by applicable law and, for requests governed by the CAN-SPAM Act, within 10 business days.
Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not necessarily prevent us from sending transactional or service-related communications, such as purchase confirmations, account notices, reservation information, or important operational updates.
6. Text Messages and SMS Communications
If you provide your mobile telephone number and consent to receive text messages from Saddleback, we may use your number to send community news, urgent notifications, event information, promotional offers, and other communications.

You may opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP to a Saddleback text message or by using another reasonable method to communicate that you no longer consent to receive text messages. We will honor opt-out requests within the period required by applicable law.
Your consent to receive marketing or informational text messages is not required as a condition of purchasing goods or services.
7. Children’s Privacy
Our Services are not directed toward children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online directly from children under 13 without appropriate parental consent. A parent or guardian may provide information about a child when purchasing or arranging products or services, such as lift tickets, lessons, rentals, events, or lodging. We use that information to provide the requested products or services and for other purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
If we learn that we have collected personal information online directly from a child under 13 without appropriate parental consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information. This does not apply to information appropriately provided by a parent or guardian for the products, services, and purposes described above.
Parents or guardians who believe that a child may have provided personal information to us may contact us using the information below.
8. Third-Party Websites and Services
Our Services may contain links to third-party websites, applications, social media platforms, lodging providers, ticketing platforms, retailers, advertisers, or other services.
Those third parties may collect information from you independently. Your use of a third-party website or service is governed by that third party’s privacy policy and terms of use.
Saddleback is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites or services.
9. Social Media
Saddleback may maintain accounts or pages on third-party social media platforms. If you interact with us through those platforms, the platform may collect information about your interaction in accordance with its own privacy policy.
Information that you voluntarily post publicly on social media may also be visible to others.
10. Data Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically is completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your personal information.
If you believe that your interaction with Saddleback or our Services has resulted in unauthorized disclosure or misuse of your information, please contact us promptly.
If Saddleback becomes aware of a security breach involving computerized personal information, we will conduct a good-faith, reasonable, and prompt investigation to determine the likelihood that the information has been or will be misused, in accordance with Maine’s Notice of Risk to Personal Data Act, 10 M.R.S. §§ 1346–1350-B. If misuse has occurred or is reasonably possible, we will notify affected Maine residents and either the applicable agency within the Maine Department of Professional and Financial Regulation or, if none, the Maine Attorney General, as expediently as possible and without unreasonable delay. Notice may be delayed as permitted by law to accommodate legitimate law-enforcement needs or measures necessary to determine the breach’s scope and restore the reasonable integrity, security, and confidentiality of the system. Absent a qualifying law-enforcement delay, notice will be provided no later than 30 days after we become aware of the breach and identify its scope. If notice is required for more than 1,000 persons, we will also notify nationwide consumer reporting agencies as required by law.
11. Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including providing products and services, maintaining required business and financial records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, complying with legal obligations, and protecting legitimate business interests. Retention periods vary by the type of information and purpose of collection.
12. Your Privacy Choices
Depending on the law that applies to you and the circumstances of your request, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information; opt out of certain marketing or legally defined sales, sharing, or targeted advertising; withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and exercise other rights provided by law.
To submit a request, use the contact information below and describe the request and relevant interaction. We may verify your identity and, if applicable, an authorized agent’s authority before responding within the period required by law.
We may deny or limit a request when permitted by law, including when information must be retained to complete a transaction, provide a requested service, maintain required records, protect against fraud, resolve disputes, or comply with legal obligations.
13. Maine Law
Saddleback complies with applicable Maine privacy, consumer-protection, and data-security laws, including Maine’s requirements to investigate qualifying security breaches and provide required notices. The rights and remedies available to you depend on the law applicable to the information, request, and relationship involved.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, technology, Services, or applicable law. We will revise the “Effective Date” above and provide any additional notice required by law. Please review this policy periodically.
