Privacy Policy

 

What is personal data at Superyacht Operating Systems (SOS)?

At SOS, we believe strongly in fundamental privacy rights and that those fundamental rights should not differ depending on where you live in the world. That's why we treat any data that relates to an identified or identifiable individual or that is linked or link-able to them by SOS as personal data, no matter where the individual lives. 

This Privacy Policy covers how SOS or an SOS-affiliated company (collectively, SOS) handles personal data whether you interact with us on our websites or through SOS apps (such as Charter Guest). SOS may also link to third parties which the SOS Privacy Policy does not apply. SOS is not responsible for how third parties define personal data or how they use it. We encourage you to read their privacy policies and know your privacy rights before interacting with them. 

At SOS, we respect your ability to know, access, correct and delete your personal data. SOS does not sell your data including any portion of it to any third party in any country.

Use of personal data by SOS

SOS uses your personal data and preferences to enhance your experience when onboard the superyacht and to power our services when you're not onboard.

SOS uses your personal data only when we have a valid legal basis to do so.

  • Charter Opportunities. Our affiliate companies may present future charter opportunities that are inline with your chartering profile and preferences.
  • Communicate with You. To respond to communications, reach out to you to request information or feedback. From time to time, we may send important notices, such as communications about changes to our terms, conditions, and policies. Because this information is important to your interaction with SOS, you may not opt out of receiving these important notices.
  • Comply with Law. To comply with applicable laws for example, to satisfy tax or reporting obligations, or to comply with a lawful governmental request.

SOS does not use algorithms or profiling to make any decision that would significantly affect you.

SOS retains personal data only for so long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including as described in this Privacy Policy, or as required by law. 

We will retain your personal data for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy.

In addition to cookies, SOS uses other technologies that help us achieve similar objectives. 

In some email messages SOS sends to you, we provide a click-through URL that links you to content on the SOS website. When you click one of these URLs, they pass through a separate server before arriving at the destination page on our website. We track this click-through to help us determine interest in particular topics and measure whether we are communicating with you effectively.

SOS generally treats data we collect using these cookies and similar technologies as non-personal data. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal data by local law, we also treat these identifiers as personal data in those regions. In addition, SOS sometimes combines non-personal data collected from these technologies with other personal data SOS holds. When we combine data in this way, we treat the combined data as personal data for purposes of this Privacy Policy.
