  • Platform User Accounts: Business contact details (name, email, role, job title) provisioned by client organisations for authorized software access.
  • Audit & Operational Records: User IDs and timestamps associated with technical task completions, checklist sign-offs, and report approvals within the software (required to maintain maritime audit traceability).
  • Technical Server Logs: Standard IP addresses, browser user-agent headers, and request timestamps logged by our web servers to ensure system security and prevent abuse.

3. Lawful Bases for Processing (UK GDPR Art. 6)

We process personal data under the following recognized legal bases:

  • Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)): When you voluntarily submit an operational enquiry or request a live demonstration via our website.
  • Contractual Performance (Art. 6(1)(b)): To provision user accounts, provide customer support, and fulfill service agreements.

  • Authenticate authorized users and enforce role-based access permissions.
  • Maintain immutable operational history logs for maintenance tasks and daily progress reports.
  • Provide direct technical engineering support and incident resolution.

5. Data Storage & Security Standards

All central cloud platform databases and automated backups are hosted in certified, high-security data centres situated within the United Kingdom.

We implement comprehensive technical security controls, including TLS 1.3 encryption in transit, encrypted storage volumes at rest, strict least-privilege administrative access, and regular backup integrity verifications.

6. Absolute Rule: Zero Data Selling

We do not sell, rent, monetize, or trade personal data under any circumstances. We do not use marketing trackers or advertising networks. Personal data is disclosed only to vetted technical infrastructure providers (such as secure UK data centre hosts) strictly acting under written data processing agreements, or where required by law or valid court order.

7. Data Retention

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to satisfy the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable UK law. Commercial enquiry records are retained for up to 24 months. Active client accounts and operational logs are retained for the duration of the commercial engagement and purged in accordance with our Data Retention Schedule following termination.
