4. How We Use Your Personal Data

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

  • Responding to Enquiries: To reply to messages, answer questions, and provide quotes or availability information.

  • Performance of a Contract: To process and deliver your charter experience, manage bookings, take payment where applicable, and communicate logistics such as pick-up locations (e.g., Lymington Harbour Master pontoon).

  • Marketing: To send you updates, news, and exclusive offers via our mailing list where you have chosen to opt in. You have the right to withdraw consent to marketing at any time by contacting us or using the "unsubscribe" link in our emails.

  • Legitimate Interests: To improve our services, manage our relationship with you, and ensure the security of our operations.

5. Disclosures of Your Personal Data

We do not sell your personal data. We also do not rent it out or trade it. However, we may share your personal data with:

  • Service Providers: Third-party providers who provide IT, system administration, and email marketing services (for example, Mailchimp, an email distribution platform for our mailing list). These providers process data on our instructions.

6. Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered, or disclosed. We limit access to your personal data to those employees and third parties who have a business need to know.

7. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, insurance, or reporting requirements.

  • Marketing data (mailing list): We keep this data until you unsubscribe (or otherwise ask us to stop sending marketing).

  • Enquiry and booking records: We keep these for 7 years for tax and insurance purposes.

To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means.
