    2. Personal data we may collect

    • Identity and contact information: name, email address, telephone number, company, role and postal address.
    • Enquiry and service information: the content of messages and information about a vessel, yacht, owner, captain, crew member, charter, registration, survey, brokerage or technical request.
    • Transaction information: quotation, invoice and payment-related records where a service is ordered. Payment-card data is processed only by the relevant payment provider, where applicable.
    • Technical information: IP address, browser and device information, security logs, referring pages, dates and times of access, and cookie or consent preferences.
    • Application information: professional history, qualifications and other information voluntarily submitted in connection with recruitment or crew enquiries.

    Please do not submit sensitive or confidential information unless it is necessary for the service requested and you are authorised to provide it.

    3. How we obtain personal data

    We obtain personal data directly from you through contact, registration, enquiry, newsletter and other website forms; by email or telephone; during the provision of services; and automatically through essential website, security and consent technologies. We may also receive information from an owner, captain, authorised representative, business partner, registry, port authority or other relevant third party where this is necessary to handle a legitimate request.

    4. Purposes and legal bases

    • To respond to enquiries and take steps requested before entering into a contract.
    • To provide, administer and support contracted services.
    • To comply with legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, maritime, customs and security obligations.
    • To protect the website, our systems, users and business against fraud, misuse and cyber threats on the basis of our legitimate interests.
    • To improve website operation using privacy-respecting technical information and, where required, your consent.
    • To send newsletters or promotional communications only where you have consented or where otherwise lawfully permitted. You may unsubscribe at any time.
    • To establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

    Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal.

    5. Cookies and similar technologies

    We use essential technologies required for the website to function and may use optional technologies only after the required consent. Details, purposes, providers and retention periods are described in our Cookie Policy. You can change your choices at any time through the cookie-preferences control available on the website.

    6. Recipients and service providers

    Personal data may be shared, only where necessary, with hosting and IT providers, website and security providers, professional advisers, payment or communications providers, maritime registries, authorities, ports, surveyors, contractors and carefully selected partners involved in fulfilling a request. These parties act under their own legal obligations or appropriate contractual safeguards. We do not sell personal data.

    7. International transfers

    Some service providers or maritime counterparties may be located outside the European Economic Area. Where the GDPR applies, we use an appropriate transfer mechanism, such as an adequacy decision, Standard Contractual Clauses or another lawful safeguard, unless a specific legal derogation applies.

    8. Retention

    We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including contractual, warranty, maritime, tax, accounting and legal requirements. General enquiries are reviewed periodically and deleted or anonymised when no longer needed. Security logs are retained for a limited period appropriate to their purpose. Consent records are retained as required to demonstrate compliance.

    9. Your rights

    Subject to applicable law, you may request access to your personal data, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or object to processing based on legitimate interests. You may also withdraw consent at any time and lodge a complaint with the Hellenic Data Protection Authority or another competent supervisory authority.

    To exercise a right, contact info@argomaritime.com.gr. We may request information necessary to verify your identity.

    10. Security

    We apply appropriate technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal data. No internet transmission or storage system is completely secure, so absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

    11. Children

    This website and our services are not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children through the website.

    12. Third-party websites and embedded content

    Links, maps, videos, social-media features and other third-party content are governed by the relevant provider’s terms and privacy information. Optional third-party content is blocked until consent where required.

    13. Changes to this policy

    We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, website or legal obligations change. The latest revision date appears at the top of this page.
