How we handle personal information
Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 23, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes our policies and procedures on the collection, use and disclosure of your information when you use our website and related services (the “Service”). It also explains your privacy rights and how the law protects you.
We use the information you provide to respond to enquiries and provide our services. Optional analytics and advertising measurement are controlled by your cookie choices, which you can change at any time. Browsing the website does not select these optional settings for you.

Information We Collect
Personal Data
While using our Service, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you. This may include:
- Name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Any other details you choose to share when sending an inquiry or booking request.
We assign each enquiry an internal reference to track its processing status. We keep a private service record of that reference, submission time, enquiry entry point, structured charter details and email sending status. This record does not copy your name, contact details or free-text message. Optional campaign attribution is included only with the relevant cookie choices.
Confirmed Quotes and Payments
When we prepare a formal charter quote, we keep a separate private record of the customer name and email, charter details, agreed amounts, quote terms and payment status. The private quote link provides access to these details; please do not share it publicly. Quote pages are excluded from our optional analytics.
Where Escrow.com payment is available and you choose to continue, we share the buyer email and the agreed transaction details with Escrow.com to prepare the payment. Card, identity-verification and bank details requested by Escrow.com are entered on its own website, subject to its privacy policy and transaction terms. We retain the provider transaction reference and verified payment status to reconcile your quote; a return to our website alone is not proof that payment has been received.
In-person Security Deposit Payments
The separate yacht security deposit is paid by card through our on-site POS terminal at check-in. The terminal provider, acquiring bank and your card issuer process the payment and card information under their applicable privacy notices. The website does not collect card details for this deposit, and it is not processed through our online Escrow checkout.
We may keep the booking reference, payer name, payment amount and currency, transaction date, terminal reference, masked receipt and refund or release status. Where a deduction is considered, relevant handover and return inspection records, photographs, correspondence and cost evidence may also be linked to the booking. We use these records to administer the charter contract, reconcile payments, manage refunds and claims, prevent fraud and meet legal or accounting obligations, using the applicable lawful basis for each purpose.
Access is limited to staff and providers who need the records for those purposes. Relevant records may be shared with the payment provider, banks, insurers or professional advisers where necessary to process a payment, refund or dispute. We retain them only as long as needed for the charter, applicable record-keeping obligations or an unresolved claim, then securely delete or anonymise them.
Do not send full card numbers, PINs or card security codes through our website forms or email. Enter card information only through the payment terminal or the payment provider's secure process. Contact us using the details below to ask about these records or exercise your applicable privacy rights.
Usage Data
Usage Data is collected automatically when using the Service. Usage Data may include information such as your device's Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers and other diagnostic data.
Cookies
We use a first-party cookie, cruise_consent_v1, to remember your cookie choices for up to 180 days across cruiseasiayacht.com and our www and info subdomains. This preference cookie stores your choices and their dates, not your name, email address or enquiry details.
If you allow Analytics, an optional first-party cookie, cruise_attribution_v1, can remember campaign source tags across these websites for up to 30 minutes. Advertising click identifiers are included only when you also allow Advertising measurement. Withdrawing the relevant choice clears or removes these optional values. A successful enquiry can include its random reference in consented analytics so we can reconcile the event with its service record.
- Analytics, optional: if you allow it, Google Analytics helps us understand website visits and successful enquiries. The Google Analytics tag is not loaded until you allow analytics.
- Advertising measurement, optional: you can separately allow advertising cookies and the use of measurement data to understand which ads lead to website visits and enquiries. Our current Google measurement runs through Analytics, so allowing advertising measurement alone does not load it. Personalized advertising remains disabled.
Both optional choices are off until you select them. You can reject optional cookies and still browse yachts, request a quote and send an enquiry. We do not send the contents of your enquiry, your name or your email address as analytics event parameters.
Use Cookie settings below or in the footer to review or withdraw your choices. Withdrawing analytics consent stops further Analytics measurement; it does not erase data already received by Google. If your browser cannot save the preference cookie, your new choice applies only to the current page. To keep it across pages, allow first-party cookies or clear this site's previously stored cookies.
