1. Information We Collect

We only collect information that you voluntarily provide to us through our contact forms or direct consultations. This includes:

• Personal Identity: Name, email address, and phone number.
• Vessel Records: Specifications, registration, location, and maintenance history.
• Service Requirements: Information regarding your specific brokerage or management needs.

 

2. Lawful Basis for Processing

Under UK and EU GDPR, we process your data based on Contractual Necessity (to provide the services you have requested) and Legitimate Interests (to manage and maintain your vessel efficiently).

3. Data Sharing & Global Coordination

As the yachting industry is global, we may share relevant data with third-party professionals to facilitate your requests:

• Service Delivery: Sharing vessel and contact details with shipyards, marinas, and maintenance contractors for bookings and repairs.
• International Transfers: Your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside the UK or EEA (e.g., for Caribbean berthing or US-based surveys). We ensure that such transfers are protected by standard contractual clauses or adequacy regulations.
• Invoicing: Providing necessary billing information to contractors so they may invoice you directly.

 

4. No Tracking & Cookies

To ensure your privacy, this website does not use tracking analytics or marketing cookies. We do not monitor your behaviour across other websites.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal and vessel information only for as long as is necessary to:

• Fulfill the service requests you have made.
• Comply with maritime, tax, and legal reporting requirements (typically 7 years for financial records).
• Maintain a historical record of vessel maintenance for future brokerage purposes.

 

6. Your Rights (Global & GDPR)

Regardless of where you are located, you have the following rights:

• Access & Correction: You may request a copy of your data or ask us to fix inaccuracies.
• Deletion: You may request the deletion of your personal data (“Right to be Forgotten”).
• Portability: You may request that we transfer your data to another provider. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected]

 

7. Policy Changes

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our services or international law. We notify you of any changes by posting the new version on this page and updating the “Effective Date” above.

8. Data Security & Confidentiality

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, we have put in place professional physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. We treat all client and vessel data with the high degree of confidentiality required in the yachting industry.
