Who we share your data with
If you choose to receive information about products and services from AB Marine & Expert-Tours and other “select” companies, AB Marine & Expert-Tours may sometimes disclose your personal information to those companies. We will only do so with those companies that have assured us that they will not use your personal information for any purpose other than to provide this information to you. If you decide that you no longer want to receive information from a particular company, you should contact that company directly.
We may also disclose your personal information to third parties that will assist AB Marine & Expert-Tours in processing and fulfilling your orders, charging your credit card, delivering the footage and providing customer service. We are also required to release your credit card information to the card-issuing bank to confirm payment.
You should be aware that if you subsequently give any personal information to another company, the uses to which that information may be put will be determined on the basis of that company’s privacy policy. Our policy will no longer apply.
AB Marine & Expert-Tours may share your personal information to third parties such as contractors who are working with AB Marine & Expert-Tours to improve its technology and services. All such individuals shall be required to execute a confidentiality agreement prior to AB Marine & Expert-Tours disclosing any personal information to them. Furthermore, in the event of a merger, acquisition, or the unlikely event of bankruptcy, management of AB Marine & Expert-Tours customer information may be transferred to its successor or assign.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
