White Whale Yachtbrokers consists of several independent offices that operate and collect data in almost entirely the same way. See our “contact” menu on the website for the details of all independent offices. At each office, the first (or only) yacht broker mentioned there is also the person who is the Data Protection Officer of that company. In the text below, “White Whale Yachtbrokers” refers to the relevant office as described above, or the head office in Willemstad.
White Whale Yachtbrokers processes your personal data because you make use of our services and/or because you provide this data to us yourself. When requesting general information via the website, email, or by phone, we only store the data we need to contact you, no further personal data. Below you will find an overview of the personal data we process in the case of selling yacht owners and buyers of vessels. This is all clearly stated in the relevant Brokerage Agreement and the relevant Purchase Agreement. This is done, among other things, to determine the correct identity of the buyer and seller:
– First and last name
– Gender
– Date of birth
– Address details
– Phone number
– Email address
Our website and/or service does not intend to collect data about website visitors who are younger than 16 years old. Unless they have permission from parents or guardian. However, we cannot check whether a visitor is older than 16. We therefore advise parents to be involved in the online activities of their children, in order to prevent data being collected about children without parental consent. If you are convinced that we have collected personal information about a minor without that consent, please contact us via info@wwy.nl, and we will remove this information.
White Whale Yachtbrokers processes your personal data for the following purposes:
– Determining whether the Seller is an existing person and rightful owner and whether the Buyer is an existing person
