Third-Party Privacy Policies

The website may contain links to websites owned by other organizations. If you follow a link to another website, these websites will have their own privacy policy. We suggest that you check the policies of any other websites before giving them your personal information as we cannot accept responsibility for any other website.

Keeping Your Personal Information

How We Store Your Personal Information

The security of your personal information is important to us. We use appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard personal information. We use state-of-the-art encryption technology where appropriate to enhance privacy and help prevent information security breaches. We use industry-standard measures and processes for detecting and responding to inappropriate attempts to breach our systems.

Our platform is hosted on Amazon Web Services' (AWS) enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with data centers located within the European Economic Area.

All third parties who provide services to the website are required to sign a contract requiring them to have appropriate technical, administrative, and physical procedures in place to ensure that your information is protected against loss or misuse.

We only hold your personal information for as long as necessary for the purposes for which we collected your information. We have a company retention policy that details timescales for the retention of information. Our document retention periods are available on request to admin@varunamarine.eu.

We have set these timescales in accordance with any applicable legislation and where none exists, we will keep your information for a period of 1 year after which time it will be deleted. Please be informed that you may withdraw your consent for processing (including storage/retention) at any time.

Emails
