Privacy Policy:

How We Protect Your Personal Data

At Halal Sailing Adventures, we respect and protect your privacy. In line with the European Union’s
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), this policy explains how we collect, use, and secure personal
data you share with us.

1. Key Principles for Handling Your Data
We’re committed to handling your data with respect and transparency. Here’s how:

•  Transparency and Fairness: We’re open about how we collect and use your information. You
  have the right to know how your data is used, and you may request a copy of it at any time.
•  Purpose: We only collect the data we truly need to provide our services, meet legal
  requirements, and fulfill your booking.
•  Accuracy and Updates: We work to ensure that your information is correct and up-to-date. Let us
  know if anything changes.
•  Security: We protect your data with technical and organizational safeguards to prevent
  unauthorized access or misuse.
•  Access and Control: You can access, update, or delete your data, or change your preferences
  regarding how we use it.

2. Why We Collect Your Data
We need certain information to provide our charter services, including:
● Identification and Contact Details: Name, date of birth, citizenship, contact information (email,
phone).
● Booking and Sailing Details: Yacht booking number, embarkation details, and VHF license
information.
● Website Use: We collect limited data when you visit our website (e.g., location and device info)
to improve your experience. We also use MailChimp for email newsletters, from which you can
unsubscribe at any time.

3. Your Rights Under GDPR
You have several rights under GDPR, including:
● Access: View and receive a copy of your data.
● Correction: Update any inaccurate information.
● Deletion: Request to delete your data when it’s no longer needed.
● Objection: Choose to limit how your data is processed or shared.
● Data Transfer: Receive your data in a portable format.
To exercise any of these rights, please email us at info@halalsailingadventures.com. We’ll respond within
two months.

4. How We Secure Your Data
We use strict safeguards to protect your data. Only authorized personnel have access, and all data is
encrypted and stored securely. In rare cases where we’re legally required to share data (e.g., government
request), we’ll notify you when possible.

5. Special Data Categories
We generally don’t process sensitive information, such as race, religion, or political beliefs. If you share
sensitive data voluntarily (e.g., dietary needs for religious reasons), we handle it with extra care and
privacy.

6. Data Breaches
In the unlikely event of a data breach, we’ll inform you within 72 hours and explain any actions taken to
secure your information.
Effective Date
This policy is effective as of May 1, 2024. If we make any changes, we’ll update this document and notify
you.
