Off The Table is a coalition campaign that aims to raise awareness of the environmentally destructive nature of the ocean salmon farming industry and calls on the hospitality sector and consumers to take ocean-farmed salmon off their tables (“Off The Table,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). We value the trust you place in us when you use our website (the “Site”).

We may not accommodate a request to change information about you if we believe doing so would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

We use cookies and similar technologies that are necessary to operate and secure the Site, including advertising and analytics. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies but, if you prefer, you can usually modify your browser settings to disable or reject cookies. If you delete your cookies or set your browser to decline cookies, some features of the Site may not work or may not work as designed.

We currently use third-party analytics services, advertising or retargeting cookies, cross-site tracking technologies, and third-party advertising networks that serve targeted or interest-based advertising. The Site currently uses Google Analytics and you can learn more about how Google uses information from sites or apps that use their services. You may use our consent preferences tool located in the footer of our Site to manage how non-essential cookies are used on the Site.  Please note that you must make this selection for each unique device and browser you use to access this Site.

We work with third-party companies who also use these technologies to provide advertisements on our Site and other third-party websites. These third parties may use these technologies to collect information about you when you use the Site. They may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services. They may also use persistent identifiers to track your Internet usage across other websites in their networks beyond our Site. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based advertising or other targeted content. While we do not knowingly provide these entities with information that personally identifies you, such third parties may, with sufficient data from other sources, be able to personally identify you, unknown to us.

Some content or applications on the Site may be served by unaffiliated third parties. We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used, and we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of any website not operated by us to which our Site links or that links to our Site.
