Privacy Policy — Oceanman Academy

Effective date: Jan 8 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Oceanman Academy (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects your information when you visit our website.

Website: www.oceanmanacademy.com

If you have any questions about this policy, contact us at: info@oceanmanswim.com

 


 

1) Who we are

Oceanman Academy operates this website to provide information about our programs, training, and related content.

 


 

2) Information we collect

A) Information you provide directly

We may collect information you choose to submit, for example when you:

  • leave a comment,

  • register for an account (if enabled),

  • contact us via forms (if enabled),

  • subscribe to updates (if enabled).

This may include your name, email address, and any information you include in your message or comment.

B) Information collected automatically

When you use the website, we may automatically collect:

  • IP address,

  • browser type and device information,

  • pages visited, date/time of access, and similar usage data,

  • cookies and similar tracking data (explained below).

This helps us operate the site, maintain security, and improve performance.

 


 

3) Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect:

  • the data shown in the comments form,

  • the visitor’s IP address,

  • the browser user agent string,

so we can help detect spam and protect the site.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check whether you use it. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if connected to Gravatar) may be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

 


 

4) Media

If you upload images to the website (if enabled), avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from images on the website if it is included in the file.

 


 

5) Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies to make the website work properly and to improve your experience.

A) Comment cookies

If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so you don’t have to fill in your details again.
These cookies last for one year.

B) Login cookies (if accounts are enabled)

If you visit the login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we set cookies to save:

  • your login information (lasts two days),

  • your screen display preferences (lasts one year).

If you select “Remember Me”, your login persists for two weeks. If you log out, login cookies are removed.

C) Publishing/editing cookies

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. It contains no personal data and indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after 1 day.

 


 

6) Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (for example videos, images, articles, maps, or social media posts). Embedded content behaves the same way as if you visited the other website directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content—especially if you have an account and are logged in to that third-party site.

 


 

7) Who we share your data with

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information only when necessary to operate the website, such as:

  • Spam detection services (for example, automated comment filtering),

  • Gravatar (if you use it),

  • Hosting / security / technical providers that help run and protect the website.

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email (as part of standard security processes).

We may also share information if required to comply with law, enforce our policies, or protect our rights, users, and the public.

 


 

8) How long we retain your data

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.

  • Registered users (if enabled): If you register on our website, we store the personal information you provide in your user profile. Website administrators can view and edit that information as needed to manage the site.


 

9) Your rights over your data

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights such as:

  • requesting access to the personal data we hold about you,

  • requesting a copy/export of your personal data,

  • requesting correction or deletion of your personal data.

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you provided. You can also request deletion of your personal data.

To request any of the above, contact us at: info@oceanmanswim.com.

Note: This does not include data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

 


 

10) Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Data may be processed in countries where our website providers or tools operate.

 


 

11) Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no website or transmission method is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

 


 

12) Children’s privacy

Our website is not intended for children under the age where parental consent is required by applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us at info@oceanmanswim.com so we can address it.

 


 

13) Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new “Effective date.”
