This Privacy Policy explains how TNT Watersports (“TNT Watersports,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you visit our website, contact us, request service, apply for financing, or otherwise interact with us online or offline.
This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through:
Our website (including boat inventory pages and “Search Boats” features).
Our contact form (including SMS opt-in).
Our service request form.
Our financing application link, which takes you to a third-party application portal.
Phone calls, emails, text messages, and in-person interactions at our locations.
If you click a link to a third-party website (for example, financing, manufacturers, or product brands), that third party’s privacy practices apply.
We collect information in three main ways: (a) information you provide, (b) information collected automatically, and (c) information from third parties.
Depending on how you interact with us, you may provide:
Contact details: name, email, phone number.
Message content: details you include in contact/service forms.
Boat/service information: your boat details and service request information.
Recipient selection: if you choose a specific department or team member to receive your message.
SMS opt-in/consent: if you choose to opt in to marketing text messages.
If you apply for financing, you are directed to an online credit application hosted by a third party. That application may request sensitive personal information (for example, Social Security Number, date of birth, driver’s license number, employment and income information, address history, etc.).
Important: Information you enter into the financing application is collected and processed through that third-party portal and is subject to their privacy and security practices.
When you use the website, we (and service providers who help run the site) may automatically collect:
Device and usage data: pages viewed, time spent, referring pages, clicks, and general site interaction data.
Technical data: IP address, browser type, device type, approximate location (derived from IP), and system settings.
Cookies and similar technologies: small files used to help websites work properly, remember preferences, and support site functionality.
(If we add analytics or advertising tools in the future, we will update this policy to describe them and your choices.)
Our forms may include tools designed to prevent spam or automated abuse (for example, CAPTCHA-type checks).
We use collected information for purposes such as:
Responding to requests: replying to inquiries, quotes, questions, and messages.
Providing services: scheduling, coordinating, and performing boat service and dock services, and following up on service requests.
Sales and customer support: helping you find boats, products, and information you request.
Financing support: assisting with questions about financing and directing you to the application portal (note: the application itself is handled by the third-party provider).
Marketing communications (where permitted): sending updates, promotions, and announcements by email or SMS only where you have opted in or where otherwise permitted by law.
Safety and security: detecting and preventing fraud, spam, misuse, and protecting our users and systems.
Legal and compliance: meeting legal obligations, enforcing policies, and resolving disputes.
We may share information in the following limited circumstances:
We may share information with trusted vendors who provide services such as:
Website hosting, maintenance, and technical support (our site footer indicates design/hosting support).
Boat inventory/data systems (our site indicates real-time boat data is powered by Winboats).
Spam prevention/security services used on forms.
Communications tools (email and SMS providers) used to contact you.
These vendors are permitted to use information only to perform services for us and must protect it under their own contractual and legal obligations.
If you apply for financing, you will be taken to a third-party portal (“Online Credit Application”) and the information you submit there is processed by that third party and any participating lenders as part of the credit application process.
We may disclose information if required to do so by law, subpoena, court order, or if we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to:
comply with legal obligations,
protect our rights and property,
prevent fraud or security issues,
protect the safety of customers, staff, or the public.
If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of some or all assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to standard confidentiality protections.
Mobile Opt-in, SMS Consent, and phone numbers collected for SMS communication purposes will not be shared with any third party or affiliates for marketing purposes.
(For clarity, our contact form also indicates your mobile information will not be sold or shared with third parties for promotional or marketing purposes.)
Most browsers let you control cookies through settings (for example, blocking or deleting cookies). If you disable cookies, some site features may not function properly.
If we implement additional cookie-based analytics or advertising tools in the future, we will update this policy to explain what’s used and what opt-outs are available.
If you receive marketing emails from us, you can opt out by using the unsubscribe link (if included) or by contacting us using the information in the “Contact Us” section below.
If you opt in to SMS marketing, message frequency may vary and standard message/data rates may apply. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP, and request help by replying HELP.
We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for:
the purposes described in this policy,
legitimate business needs (customer support, service history, recordkeeping),
compliance with legal obligations.
Financing application data entered on the third-party portal is retained according to that provider’s and participating lenders’ policies.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information. However, no website or transmission method is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Our website and services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:
request access to personal information we hold about you,
request correction or deletion,
object to or restrict certain processing,
withdraw consent (where processing is based on consent).
To exercise these rights, contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.
Our site may link to third-party websites (for example, financing and product/manufacturer sites). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties. Review their policies before submitting information on those sites.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last Updated” date at the top indicates when it was most recently revised. Material changes will be posted on this page.
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, contact us:
TNT Watersports
Hendersonville, TN and McDaniels, KY locations (see our Contact page for current address/phone details).
