Thursday Pools, LLC, DBA River Pools (the “Company,” “we”, “our”, or “us”) respects your concerns about the security of your personal data and your privacy.
This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) provides you with important information about how and why the Company, which is based in North America, collects, processes, and shares personal information about your rights and how to contact us if you have a question, concern, or complaint.
1. HOW THIS POLICY APPLIES
This Policy applies to personal information we collect through the sales and marketing of our products and services, which include the “Thursday Pools” and “River Pools” brands of fiberglass swimming pools (and their features, components, and systems, some of which may collect and transmit data), our websites, our social media pages which reference this Policy, online portals, and mobile applications. This Policy also applies to personal information we collect through interactions with you, through offline sources (such as sales and marketing efforts), and from third parties.
Note: You have a choice as to whether you want to share personal information with us. If you choose not to provide us with certain personal information, we may not be able to offer you products and services which utilize that information and/or the functionality and features of those products and services may be limited or inoperable.
