Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on your device that help websites operate and understand visitor activity. We may use:
- Essential cookies to support website functionality and security
- Analytics cookies to understand website traffic and performance
- Preference cookies to remember certain settings
- Third-party cookies associated with embedded maps, videos, CAPTCHA services, or other website features
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect how parts of the website function.
Where required by applicable law, we will request consent before using nonessential cookies.
How We Disclose Information
We may disclose information to:

We do not sell personal information for monetary payment. Some privacy laws define “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising more broadly. If our practices become subject to those definitions, we will provide any legally required notices and choices.
Third-Party Websites and Services
Our website may link to or display services operated by third parties, including employment platforms, maps, video providers, social media platforms, analytics services, and CAPTCHA providers.
These third parties may collect information according to their own privacy policies. Loadstar is not responsible for the privacy, security, or content practices of third-party websites or services. We encourage you to review their policies before providing personal information.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, meet operational needs, comply with legal requirements, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards intended to protect personal information. However, no website, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Your Privacy Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Request access to personal information we maintain about you
- Request correction of inaccurate information

To submit a privacy request, contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity before completing the request. An authorized agent may submit a request where permitted by law, subject to appropriate verification.
You may also manage cookies through your browser settings and opt out of certain Google Analytics data collection by using Google’s browser opt-out tools.
Children’s Privacy
This website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. If we learn that such information has been collected, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
The Loadstar Tankerman Academy is limited to applicants who are at least 18 years old.
Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not currently a universally accepted standard for responding to these signals, our website may not respond to them.
Where required by applicable law, we will recognize supported browser-based opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal obligations. The updated policy will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
