This policy explains what information Swim With Manatees collects when you visit this website, contact us or book a tour, how we use it, and the choices you have. We keep it short and in plain English. If anything is unclear, ask us.
Last updated October 2026
Swim With Manatees runs small-group manatee tours on the Homosassa River from 5297 S Cherokee Way, Homosassa, FL 34448. In this policy, “we” and “us” mean Swim With Manatees, and “the website” means snorkelwithmanatees.com.
When you contact us. Our contact form asks for your name, your email address, your trip date if you know it, and your question. We also keep the details you share when you call, text or email us.
When you book. Bookings are made through FareHarbor, our booking provider. FareHarbor collects the details needed to book your tour, such as your name, email, phone number, the number of guests and your payment. Payment card details are handled by FareHarbor and its payment processors. We don’t receive or store your full card number.
When you add Event Photography or Trip Protection. We keep the details needed to deliver your photos or honor your booking terms.
Like most websites, ours uses cookies and similar tools to understand how the site is used. These tools may record things like the pages you visit, how you got here, your device and browser type, your general location (city or region, not your exact address), and how you scroll and click.
Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager help us count visits and see which pages are useful.
Microsoft Clarity shows us, in aggregate and through session replays, how visitors move through a page, so we can fix confusing spots. Clarity is set up to mask what you type into form fields.
Advertising measurement. Tools from Google may record whether a visit to our site led to a booking, so we can tell which ads and links are worth paying for.
Some parts of the website come from other companies, and they may set their own cookies when they load: the FareHarbor booking calendar and checkout, Google Maps on our Directions page, YouTube for video, and Trustindex for the Google reviews we display. Their use of your information is covered by their own privacy policies.
We use your information to answer your questions, manage your booking, send you confirmations and important trip details (like weather or a changed departure time), deliver photos you’ve purchased, honor our No Sighting Promise and Trip Protection, improve the website, measure our marketing, and keep our business and guests safe.
We don’t sell your personal information. We share it only with the companies that help us run the business, such as FareHarbor for bookings and payments, our email provider, and the analytics and website tools named above, and only as needed for them to do that work.
We may also share information if the law requires it, to protect the safety of our guests and crew, or as part of a sale or transfer of the business.
Cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The website will still work, though some features, like the booking calendar or map, may not. You can also opt out of Google Analytics with Google’s browser add-on.
Your information. To see, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, email us at manateesnorkel@gmail.com. We’ll respond within a reasonable time. We may need to keep some booking records for tax, accounting or legal reasons.
Emails. If we ever send you promotional emails, every one will include a way to unsubscribe. Booking confirmations and trip updates are part of your booking and aren’t optional while your trip is coming up.
We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes above, such as running your tour, keeping business records and meeting legal requirements. Then we delete it or keep it in a form that no longer identifies you.
We use reasonable safeguards to protect your information, and our booking and payment partners use industry-standard security. No website or email system is perfectly secure, so please don’t send sensitive information, like card numbers, through our contact form or by email.
The website isn’t directed at children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect their personal information online. Parents and guardians book tours for children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we’ll delete it.
Our website links to other sites, such as our partners’ tours and social media. We aren’t responsible for how those sites handle your information, so check their privacy policies.
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we’ll change the date at the top of this page.
