How the Seafood Consumer Association collects, uses, and protects the personal information you share with us.
We collect personal information only when you interact with us — for example, when you submit an enquiry through our contact form, enrol in a certification programme, sign up for our newsletter, or correspond with us by email.
The types of information we may collect include:
We do not collect sensitive personal information (such as health data, financial account details, or government identifiers) and we do not ask for it. If you ever feel that a form is requesting something unnecessary, please contact us and we will look into it.
We use the information we collect for the following purposes only:
We will not use your information to send you unsolicited marketing, sell you products or services unrelated to I-CADMUS, or make automated decisions about you. If you have opted into the newsletter, you can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the link at the bottom of any email we send.
This website uses a small number of cookies — small text files stored in your browser — to make the site work properly and to help us understand how it is being used.
We use two types:
You can control cookies through your browser settings. If you block all cookies, some parts of the site — particularly the certification platform — may not function correctly. Disabling analytics cookies has no effect on your ability to use the site.
We do not use advertising or tracking cookies, and we do not permit third-party advertisers to set cookies on this site.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. Ever. That is a firm commitment, not a qualified statement.
We do share limited information with a small number of service providers who help us operate the site and deliver our programmes — for example, our email delivery platform and the university partners who administer certification on our behalf. These providers are contractually required to handle your data only for the purposes we specify and in accordance with applicable privacy law.
If we are required by law or a court order to disclose information, we will comply — but we will notify you wherever we are legally permitted to do so.
You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to ask us to correct anything that is inaccurate, and to request that we delete your information where we no longer have a legitimate reason to keep it.
Specifically, you may:
