This Privacy Policy explains how personal data is processed when you use the BoatsHaven website, contact us or submit information about a boat, watercraft or related marine equipment.
BoatsHaven is a boat buying service (“BoatsHaven”, “we”, “us” or “our”).
BoatsHaven is the controller of personal data processed through the BoatsHaven service.
Contact: hello@boatshaven.com.
We may collect information you provide to us, including your contact details, location, information about the item you wish to sell, photographs, documents, pricing information and communications with us.
We may also collect limited technical information relating to the use and operation of our website. Where consent is required for analytics or similar technologies, they are used only after consent has been given.
Where analytics consent has not been given, an anonymous count of page views may still be recorded. It does not use cookies, does not identify you and cannot be linked to you or to an earlier visit.
We may use personal data to:
— review enquiries and evaluate items;
— prepare, discuss and administer offers or transactions;
— arrange inspections, collection, transport and payment;
— verify identity, ownership, documentation or other information where reasonably necessary;
— communicate with you;
— maintain business and transaction records;
— prevent fraud, misuse or unlawful activity;
— establish, exercise or defend legal claims;
— comply with applicable legal, accounting, tax or regulatory requirements; and
— operate, secure and improve our website and services.
Depending on the circumstances, processing is based on steps taken at your request before entering into a contract, performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, our legitimate interests, or your consent where required.
We may share personal data where reasonably necessary with service providers and other parties involved in operating our business or completing a transaction, including transport and inspection providers, payment providers, professional advisers and technology providers.
We may also disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to protect our rights, property or legitimate interests.
Some service providers or transaction partners may process personal data outside the country in which it was collected.
Where applicable law requires safeguards for an international transfer of personal data, we use safeguards recognised by applicable data protection law.
We retain personal data for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and for legitimate business, accounting, legal, compliance, fraud-prevention, dispute-resolution and record-keeping purposes.
Enquiries that do not lead to a transaction are typically retained for up to one year, after which they are deleted or reduced to anonymous statistics. Records relating to completed purchases are retained for the period required by applicable accounting and tax law, typically up to ten years.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the transaction and applicable legal requirements.
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data.
No method of transmission, processing or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Depending on applicable law and the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data, restrict or object to certain processing, receive certain data in a portable format and withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
These rights may be subject to legal limitations and exceptions.
To exercise your rights, contact hello@boatshaven.com. We will handle requests within the time limits required by applicable law.
You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority. A complaint may also be lodged with the supervisory authority in the controller's country of establishment, the Lithuanian data protection authority Valstybinė duomenų apsaugos inspekcija (VDAI).
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.
The date shown at the top indicates the latest revision.
