We collect this personal data by using server logs, cookies and data analytics technologies and services provided by third party suppliers such as Google based outside the EU. Please refer to our Cookies Policy for more information.

When following us on social media, the collection, processing, storage and use of your information is the responsibility of the social media provider, subject to the Privacy Policy of the respective social media platform. We can view information that you share via the social media platforms and platform providers provide us with analytics tools which we use for informational and marketing analysis purposes.

Should you be chartering a yacht, it is also possible that we may automatically collect yacht coordinates tracking information mainly for safety and emergency handling purposes but also to enhance the level of charter base service level you receive.

What Personal Data We Collect

The amount and type of personal data we collect is always reasonable, necessary and maintained to the minimum requirement imposed by criterion of necessity for operational and contract performance, legal requirement or other legitimate interest per level of interaction.

To help you better understand the type of personal data we may collect and process we have grouped them per level of interaction as follows:

Kindly understand that personal data required to be collected, processed, distributed and stored by law, or under legitimate interest or reasonable requirement so as to execute a service or product order or to enter or fulfil the terms of a contract needs to be provided from you in an accurate and timely manner. Should you fail to do so then we may not be able to render our services, execute your order, enter or perform the contract so we may be obliged to decline or cancel your service or product order or contract.

Sailing Coordinates Data

During your sailing holiday you may require from us technical or other support or you may even face an emergency requiring assistance. Being able to define your current location is crucial for us to be able to respond fast and effectively and for this purpose some of our yachts are equipped with GPS tracking devices transmitting GPS coordinates of navigation. This information also allows us to optimize service level by prioritizing charter base personnel allocation when you return your chartered yacht to base and can be used as evidence in any event of damage or accident caused during the charter.

How we use personal data

Other than for the specific purposes agreed with you, any information collected can be processed and used without your knowledge or consent for legitimate purposes only, when this is required or permitted by Law.

The two principal uses of your information are Operational / Legal requirements and Marketing.

Operational & Legal Requirements

Commonly refer to when we need to,

  • respond to an inquiry or contact of other purpose that we have received from you
  • prepare a contract we are about to enter with you
  • perform a contract we have entered with you or to render you a service or product you have ordered
  • comply with legal, statutory or regulatory obligations
  • serve or protect our legitimate interests (or those of a third party)

Marketing

Nausail Yacht Charters shall never sell or make otherwise available your personal information to any third party for the purposes of advertising.

We use information collected from you to,

  • improve our websites’ content and functionality
  • perform internal marketing analysis
  • communicate offers and news which we believe will be of interest to you

If you have contacted us requesting information, or inquired for goods or services from us or subscribed to our newsletters or publications, or registered for a competition or promotion organized by us, or provided us with your contact details during a fair, or received goods or services from us and on condition that you have not opted out of such an activity then you may be receiving marketing communications from us.

Data Storage & Retention

Where we store your data

Your information is stored on our servers and protected physical storage locations in our head offices as well as servers owned by third parties as further explained below. We implement a variety of procedures and technologies including security equipment (controlled access technology and CCTV monitoring) and software (firewall, antivirus, data encryption) to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

Just like almost any business worldwide we obtain business essential services such as e-mailing and data storage from external suppliers. We take great care in selecting only reputable trustworthy suppliers such as Google, Microsoft, Dropbox and Mailchimp especially because they process and store your data on servers of their own that are dispersed in many countries and so possibly located outside the country where you live or the European Economic Area (EEA).

Despite all reasonable measures being taken, it is well understood that no business can fully eliminate security risks associated with information.

How long we retain your data

Your personal data is retained for as long as it is required to fulfil the purpose we collected it for, or as mandated by applicable legislation and regulations (including tax and accounting requirements as well as purposes of an investigation or dispute).

You may at any time unsubscribe from our marketing activities (i.e. Newsletters and Publications) and we will immediately update your marketing preferences so you will no longer be receiving marketing activities from us. However, your personal data previously collected (including any e-mails exchanged) can and will be retained for legal and legitimate purposes (as when such information is pertinent to a previous product or service order of yours).

It is important that any personal data you hold with us is always current and accurate so please be so kind to keep us updated on any changes of your information.

Who we share personal data with

Sharing your information is strictly limited to serving legitimate purpose and Summer Dream Yacht Charters will never sell or otherwise make your information available to any third party for any purpose which lies beyond operational or legal requirement.

Your personal data will be accessible by our staff through a structured system of authorization and access levels whilst some of our staff may be accessing it from remote locations (as when in a marina). Our personnel receive training on Data Protection issues so that they have a good understanding of the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data and take great care to ensure that their handling practices minimize such risk (so for example, your printed charter documentation will move through the various stages required to obtain permit to sail always enclosed in company folder and will never be left unattended or accessible by unauthorized persons).

Your personal data will be shared by us on an as-necessary basis with service providers (e.g. IT provider, analytics companies, pay per click (PPC) and E-Newsletters services), operational partners (e.g. fleet operators, charter brokers, yacht owners, yacht crews, charter-base operators), other suppliers (for as long as they are required to provide you services or goods ordered through us) and competent authorities but the amount of your information shared will at all times be limited to the minimum required for the purpose it is intended to serve, always taking under consideration the nature and sensitivity of personal data.

Your rights to your personal information

Subject to applicable Law, you under certain circumstances have the right to request,

  • to access your personal data
  • to correct your personal data
  • to erase your personal data
  • to object processing of your personal data
  • to restrict processing of your personal data
  • to transfer your personal data to another company
  • to withdraw consent
  • to lodge a complaint

To receive more information or exercise any of your rights please contact us at info@summerdreamgr.com . Before responding to your request, we may ask you to verify your identity and to provide further details about your request whilst we will make best effort to respond within reasonable time. We normally do not require a fee so you may access your personal data (or process any other request pertinent to your personal data) but please keep in mind that a fee will need to be charged in cases of requests that are clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive.
