3. Legal Basis and Purpose of Processing
Your personal data is processed strictly under the following lawful grounds:
- Pre-contractual & Contractual Measures (GDPR Art. 6.1.b): Evaluating requested maritime and asset management scopes, drafting proposals, verifying vessel compliance, and executing private service agreements.
- Legitimate Interest & Consent (GDPR Art. 6.1.a / Art. 6.1.f): Responding directly to professional inquiries, securing website communication integrity, and coordinating operational logistics.
4. Confidentiality and Professional Secrecy
Given the high-profile nature of the maritime and estate management industry, we uphold strict professional discretion. Client identities, vessel data, ownership structures, private itineraries, and estate locations are treated as confidential. We do not sell, rent, or distribute client data to third-party marketing brokers. Data is shared exclusively when operationally mandatory for maritime compliance (e.g., harbor masters, port authorities, authorized class surveyors, or legal mandates).
5. Data Retention
Inquiry records are retained only as long as necessary to address the correspondence. Once a formal private service agreement is established, transactional, operational, and maritime records are retained in compliance with applicable statutory and civil liability limitation periods (minimum 5 years).
6. User Rights
In accordance with European data protection regulations (GDPR), you possess the right to access, rectify, restrict, or request the erasure of your personal data, as well as the right to data portability. To exercise any of these rights, send a written request to guille@guillermoghilardi.com. You also retain the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority (in Spain, the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos at www.aepd.es).
