Privacy Policy

1. Introduction & Data Controller

This Privacy Policy explains how Pure Ripple Maritime Provisions Ltd (Company Registration No. 12948510), trading as rankdshpureripple.xyz ("we", "us", or "our"), collects, holds, processes, and safeguards personal information gathered when you visit our website or communicate with our provisioning desk.

Our registered office is located at Suite 4, Quay West Maritime Hub, West Quay Road, Southampton SO15 1GZ, United Kingdom. For all data protection enquiries, you may contact our designated Privacy Officer at [email protected].

2. Information We Collect

We restrict data collection to what is strictly necessary for professional maritime provisioning communications and site integrity:

• Contact & Enquiry Data: When you submit our online enquiry form, we collect your name, email address, yacht or project reference name, preferred delivery port/region, category of interest, and the free-text content of your operational message.
• Technical & Telemetry Data: We may collect standard server access logs comprising your IP address, browser type and version, language settings, operating system, referring URL, date and time of visit, and basic page interaction data.
• Local Storage & Cookie Preferences: We store your consent choices regarding browser cookies directly on your local device via standard browser storage APIs.

3. Lawful Basis for Processing (UK GDPR / EU GDPR)

We process your personal information under the following legal bases recognized under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and EU Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR):

• Contractual Necessity & Pre-Contract Steps (Article 6(1)(b)): To review your provisioning requirements, provide itemized requisitions, check supplier availability, and respond to commercial yacht enquiries.
• Legitimate Interests (Article 6(1)(f)): To maintain website security, prevent spam abuse on our forms, diagnose server faults, and preserve confidential communications with vessel representatives.
• Consent (Article 6(1)(a)): Where you explicitly check an opt-in box on our contact forms or accept non-essential functional browser cookies.

4. Use of Contact Form Information

Information submitted via our enquiry form is used solely to respond to your specific maritime provisioning questions, verify vessel requirements, and discuss logistics timelines. We do not sell, rent, or lease your contact information to commercial marketing brokers or third-party mailing lists.

5. Cookies and Local Storage

Our website uses minimal cookie technology. Essential cookies are necessary for page routing and basic security. Functional cookies (such as remembering your consent preferences) are stored locally in your browser’s localStorage. For a detailed schedule of our cookie categories and expiration terms, please read our dedicated Cookie Policy.

6. Third-Party Processors & Hosting

Our website is hosted on secure web servers located within the United Kingdom and European Economic Area (EEA). We do not embed intrusive third-party behavioral trackers, social media retargeting pixels, or ad networks. When necessary to respond to multi-port deliveries, logistics coordination may involve communication with verified port agents or regional refrigerated couriers, strictly with your prior consent.

7. International Data Transfers

Because yachting operations span multiple European cruising grounds, your communication may be handled by our operational staff travelling or operating within both the UK and the EEA. All data transfers comply with UK Adequacy Regulations and standard contractual clauses ensuring an equivalent level of data protection.

8. Data Retention

We retain contact form enquiries and associated email correspondence only for as long as necessary to complete commercial transactions, resolve logistical queries, and meet statutory UK accounting and corporate record-keeping requirements (typically up to seven years for formal business ledgers, or six months for general non-transacting enquiries).

9. Your Legal Rights (UK GDPR / EU GDPR & CCPA/CPRA)

Depending on your jurisdiction, you possess specific statutory rights regarding your personal data:

• Right of Access: You may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
• Right to Rectification: You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete records.
• Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): You may request deletion of your personal data where no overriding legal basis for retention exists.
• Right to Restriction & Objection: You may restrict or object to our processing under certain conditions.
• Right to Data Portability: You may request your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
• California Residents (CCPA/CPRA): We do not sell personal data or share consumer data for cross-context behavioral advertising. You have the right to know, delete, and opt out of discrimination for exercising privacy rights.

To exercise any of these rights, email our team at [email protected]. We respond to verified requests within 30 calendar days.

10. Data Security Measures

We enforce transport layer encryption (HTTPS/TLS) across our entire domain, strict access controls on administrative inboxes, and routine security audits to protect against unauthorized data interception, loss, or alteration.

11. Children's Privacy

Our website and maritime provisioning services are directed exclusively to adult commercial marine professionals, vessel owners, and yacht crew. We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from individuals under 18 years of age.

12. Policy Updates & Contact
