Our Commitment to Your Privacy
Welcome to Jungle Hook. As experts in custom fishing tackle and remote angling expeditions, we understand the importance of trust and integrity. Our privacy policy reflects this ethos, outlining how we protect your personal information with the same meticulous care we apply to crafting a bespoke rod or planning an expedition into the heart of the rainforest.
We are fully compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable data protection laws. This means transparency in data handling, secure processing, and empowering you with control over your personal information are cornerstones of our operations.
This policy details the types of data we collect, how we use it, and the robust measures we employ to keep it secure. We encourage you to read it thoroughly. For any privacy-related questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to our dedicated team. We pledge to communicate any significant policy updates promptly and transparently.

What Information We Collect and Why
We only collect data that is necessary to provide our bespoke services and enhance your Jungle Hook experience.
When you engage with Jungle Hook for bespoke rod crafting, expedition planning, or workshop registration, we collect personal details such as your name, contact information (email, phone, address), and specific requirements for your gear or trip. This information is critical for fulfilling your orders, providing tailored customer support, and ensuring the success and safety of your expeditions.
We gather anonymized data on how you interact with our website to improve its functionality and user experience. This includes information about pages visited, time spent on site, and navigation patterns. This data helps us understand what content is most valuable to our users and how we can refine our online presence to serve you better. It is never used to identify you personally.
If you opt-in, we collect your email address for marketing communications regarding new products, workshops, or expedition opportunities. You have full control over these preferences and can unsubscribe at any time through a link provided in every email. We respect your choices regarding promotional content.
For purchases, we securely process payment details through trusted third-party payment gateways. Jungle Hook does not store your full payment card details. We only retain transaction records necessary for order fulfillment, accounting, and dispute resolution. This ensures the highest level of security for your financial information.
How We Protect Your Information
Our commitment to your data security is embedded in every aspect of our operations.
- Data Encryption: All sensitive data is encrypted both in transit (using SSL/TLS) and at rest, ensuring it remains unreadable to unauthorized parties.
- Access Controls: Strict access controls are in place, limiting personnel access to personal data only to those who require it for legitimate business purposes. Regular training ensures our team adheres to the highest privacy standards.
- Regular Security Audits: We conduct periodic security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and address potential weaknesses, maintaining an adaptive and resilient security posture.
- Third-Party Oversight: We carefully vet all third-party service providers, ensuring they meet rigorous data protection and security standards commensurate with our own.
- Breach Response Protocol: In the unlikely event of a data breach, we have a comprehensive response plan to mitigate harm, inform affected individuals, and report to regulatory authorities in accordance with legal obligations.
