Privacy Policy

Disclosure of your personal information

There are a number of instances where we may need to share your data with third parties: This may include with; law enforcement to support investigations or for detection and prevention of crime including for public safety; to safeguard the vulnerable such as children. We thoroughly consider and balance any potential impacts on you, both positive and negative, and your rights under data protection laws.

International processing of personal information?

We may need to transfer your personal data outside the UK to service providers and subcontractors in countries where data protection laws may not provide the same level of protection as those in the European Economic Area, such as the USA. These data transfers are covered by an adequacy decision of the European Commission (Article 45 GDPR). Where this is not the case e.g., when it comes to transfers to the USA, the data transfers are especially based on standard data protection clauses/standard contractual clauses in line with the templates adopted by the European Commission (Article 46 Para. 2.lit. c, Para. 5 S. 2 GDPR) or by an exemption according to Article 49 GDPR.

The same applies to external service providers who work on behalf of us (for example IT service providers or data centres) or third parties, insofar as they come into contact with your personal data and are based in third countries.

Otherwise, we do not transfer your personal data to countries outside the EU or the EEA or to international organisations.

Retention of your personal information?

We will retain your personal information for as long as we are legally or contractually required to do so, or for a period which is justifiable to meet our business needs. The exact retention period varies depending on the type of information and purpose for use, set out in this Privacy Policy. The retention of your personal data will be subject to periodic review. If you require any further information on retention periods, please contact us at marine@canonchaigneau.com

Marketing and profiling

If you have given your consent, we will contact you about the products and services we offer.

Legitimate Interests means the interests of our company in conducting and managing our business. When we process your personal information for our Legitimate Interests, we thoroughly consider and balance any potential impacts on you, both positive and negative, and your rights under data protection laws. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests.
