Privacy

Offshore Trainer is operated by Locke Design Firm LLC. This page says what the site does and does not collect. The short version: the site itself collects nothing about you, and what you type into a form is used only to answer you.

What the site does not do

No accounts, no sign-in and no payments.
No analytics, no advertising, no tracking pixels and no social-media buttons.
No cookies set by the site.
No third-party scripts, fonts or models: everything the page loads comes from this site, so a visit makes no requests to other companies.

What stays in your browser

The trainer keeps a few settings and your training progress in your browser's local storage, on your device only: lesson and quiz progress, the name you type for a certificate, display quality, voice and volume settings, the last safety chapter you read, and whether you have dismissed the welcome card. None of it is sent to us. You can clear it at any time through your browser's site-data settings, and the Export progress button writes the same data to a file that is yours to keep or share.

Drawings, DXF files, the CSV exports and the certificate are generated in your browser and downloaded directly; they are not uploaded anywhere.

What you send us

The error report form and the contact form are the only ways the site collects anything. A submission holds what you type: where the problem is, what it says, your source, and your email address if you choose to give one. Submissions are delivered to us by the hosting provider's form service, which screens each one for spam with Akismet, a third-party spam filter that receives the submission's content for that check. They are used only to answer you and to fix the site. They are kept for as long as that takes and may be deleted on request through either form. We do not sell, rent or share them.

Hosting

The site is served by Netlify. As with any web host, its servers see your IP address and the pages you request in order to deliver them, and Netlify's own privacy policy covers that processing. The site is served over HTTPS with a Content-Security-Policy and related security headers.

Children

The site is written for working adults in the offshore oil and gas industry and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect anything from them.

Your choices and rights

Because the site keeps nothing about you beyond form submissions, the main choice is in your own browser: clearing site data removes everything the trainer stored. If you have sent a form and want it corrected or deleted, ask through the contact form and say which submission you mean. Residents of California, the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom have the rights their laws provide; the same form is the way to exercise them.
