Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is: athenian-yachts.gr.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Forms

We have forms on the site, such as the Booking Request Form and Newsletter Form. We do not store any data regarding the forms on the site. The information that is filled in the form by the user is just sent to the admin’s email. We do store an encrypted log on our database that contains the date, action (e.g., submit form), and an encrypted email that cannot be read. These logs can only be accessed directly from the database and not the CMS. It is just a GDPR security measure.

Newsletter Form

On the footer, we have a newsletter form where the user can add their email. The information is not stored in our database, it is just sent to Mailchimp via an API (application call), and the email is automatically stored in a list inside Mailchimp, only after the user accepts & verifies their email (Mailchimp’s double opt-in).

Cookies

A cookie policy notification shows up the first time you enter the site. If the user accepts the terms, then a cookie is stored in the user’s browser. It contains no personal information, just the acceptance, and it is stored for 60 days, unless the user clears their cookies. The same applies to the notification (special offer) popup cookie (1 day).

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to analyze the use of our website. Google Analytics gathers information about website use by means of cookies. The information gathered relating to our website is used to create reports about the use of our website. Google’s privacy policy is available at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

How long we retain your data

We do not store any data regarding the forms on the site, and we do not store newsletter subscription data in our database. The cookies we use are stored for 60 days, unless the user clears their cookies. The notification (special offer) popup cookie is stored for 1 day.
