Privacy Policy

Harbor Row Apparel ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect when you visit harborrowapparel.com, how we use it, and the rights you have over it. By using our site, you agree to the practices described below. This policy was last updated in 2026.

Who We Are

Harbor Row Apparel is a fashion content and affiliate website. We publish style guides, product recommendations, and curated fashion picks. When you click certain links on our site and make a purchase, we may earn a commission from the retailer at no additional cost to you. We do not sell products directly, and we do not process your payments — those transactions happen on the retailers' own websites, subject to their privacy policies.

Information We Collect

We aim to collect as little personal information as possible. The data we gather falls into the following categories.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites function and understand how visitors interact with them. We use three types of cookies:

Essential cookies — Required for the website to work properly, such as remembering your cookie preferences and enabling core navigation. These cannot be switched off and do not require your consent.
Analytics cookies — Help us understand how visitors find and use our site (for example, which pages are most popular and how long people stay). This information is aggregated and used to improve our content. Analytics cookies are only set with your consent.
Affiliate cookies — Set by our affiliate partners when you click an outbound product link. They allow the retailer to attribute a qualifying purchase to us so we can earn a commission. These cookies typically record the referring page and a timestamp, and are only used with your consent.

You can manage or withdraw your cookie consent at any time through our cookie settings, and you can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling essential cookies may affect how the site functions.

Usage Data

We may collect information about how you interact with our site, including the pages you visit, the links you click, the time and date of your visit, referring websites, and the search terms that brought you to us. This usage data helps us measure the performance of our content and improve the visitor experience. It is generally analyzed in aggregate and is not used to personally identify you.

Device and Technical Information

When you access our site, certain technical information is automatically collected, such as your approximate location (derived from your IP address), browser type and version, operating system, device type, and screen resolution. We use this information to ensure our site displays correctly, to maintain security, and to understand our audience.

Newsletter Email Collection

Subscribing to our newsletter is entirely optional. If you choose to sign up, we collect the email address you provide so we can send you fashion updates, style tips, and product recommendations. We only send these emails with your explicit consent, which you give by opting in. Every newsletter includes an unsubscribe link, and you may withdraw your consent at any time. We do not require you to subscribe in order to use our site.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

To operate, maintain, and secure our website
To analyze site traffic and improve our content and layout
To attribute qualifying purchases through our affiliate partners
To send our newsletter to subscribers who have opted in
To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms

We Do Not Sell Your Data

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share limited data with trusted service providers — such as our analytics provider, email delivery service, and affiliate networks — strictly so they can perform services on our behalf. These providers are bound by their own privacy obligations and may only use your data for the purposes we specify.

Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we process your personal data on the following legal bases: your consent (for analytics cookies, affiliate cookies, and the newsletter), our legitimate interests (for maintaining and securing the site and understanding aggregate usage), and legal obligations where applicable. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the following rights over your personal information:

Access — Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
Correction — Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data
Deletion — Request that we erase your personal data
Restriction and objection — Limit or object to how we process your data
Portability — Receive your data in a portable format
Withdraw consent — Opt out of cookies or the newsletter at any time

California Residents (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect and how we use it, the right to request deletion of your personal information, and the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information. As stated above, we do not sell your personal information. You also have the right not to be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights.

Data Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy. Newsletter subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe. Cookie and analytics data is retained in line with our providers' standard periods and applicable law.

Third-Party Links

Our site contains links to third-party retailers and websites. When you follow these links, you leave our site, and we are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any website you visit.

Children's Privacy

Our website is not directed at children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can remove it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we will update the date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
