Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit www.superyacht-capetown.com (the “Site”).

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.”

We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

– “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.*

– “Log files” track actions occurring on the Site, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.

– “Web beacons,” “tags,” and “pixels” are electronic files used to record information about how you browse the Site.

*Please note that cookies may be necessary to provide you with certain features available on our Website, and therfore if you disable the cookies on your browser you may not be able to use those features, and your access to our Website will therefore be limited. If you do not disable “cookies”, you are deemed to consent to our use of any personal information collected using those cookies, subject to the provisions of this Privacy Policy.

When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and Order Information.

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

How we use your personal information

We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).

Sharing your personal information

We share your Personal Information with third parties to help us use your Personal Information, as described above.  For example, we use WordPress to power our online store.  We also use Google Analytics to help us understand how our customers use the Site (you can read more about how Google uses your Personal Information here).

You can also opt-out of Google Analytics here.

Finally, we are entitled to disclose your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, order of court or other lawful request for information we receive, or to otherwise protect our rights. In the event of a fraudulent payment, we are entitled to disclose relevant personal information for the purposes of criminal investigation or in line with any other legal obligation.

You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you and to ask that your personal information be corrected, updated, or deleted. If you would like to exercise this right, please contact us through the contact information below.
