Privacy Policy

Last Updated: [23/07/2026

1. Introduction

We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information transparently and securely. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, when we share it, and your rights regarding your personal data.

By using our website and completing our surveys, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

When you complete a survey through our website, we may collect:

• Your name
• Your email address
• Your survey responses and feedback
• Any other information you voluntarily provide within the survey

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Analyse survey responses and identify trends.
• Produce aggregated survey reports and insights.
• Improve the services and information we provide.
• Contact you if necessary regarding your survey participation.
• Share your personal information with third parties where you have given explicit consent.

4. Sharing Survey Results

Survey results may be shared publicly or with third parties in aggregated or anonymised form. Published survey reports will not identify individual participants by name or email address.

5. Sharing Personal Data with Cruise Lines

Where a survey includes an option allowing you to consent, and you actively tick the relevant consent box, we may share your name, email address and relevant survey information with the applicable cruise line.

By providing this consent, you acknowledge that the cruise line may contact you directly regarding your feedback or other matters related to the survey.

If you do not provide this consent, your personal information will not be shared with the cruise line, although anonymised or aggregated survey results may still be included in reports.

6. Surveys Conducted with Content Creators

We also conduct surveys on behalf of content creators for their audiences.

Where you provide consent through the relevant opt-in box, we may share your:

• Name
• Email address
• Survey responses

with the content creator who commissioned or promoted the survey.

Content creators may publicly discuss or display aggregated survey findings but will not publicly disclose your personal information such as your name or email address.

Where you separately consent, we may also share your personal information and survey responses with relevant cruise lines and content creators, who may contact you directly.

7. Lawful Basis for Processing

Where applicable under data protection law, we process your personal data on the basis of:

• Your consent (including where you opt in to sharing your details with cruise lines or content creators).
• Our legitimate interests in operating surveys, analysing feedback, and improving our services.
• Compliance with legal obligations where required.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or to comply with legal, regulatory, or contractual obligations.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to:

• Access your personal data.
• Request correction of inaccurate information.
• Request deletion of your personal data.
• Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
• Object to certain processing activities.
• Request a copy of your personal data in a portable format.

Withdrawal of consent will not affect processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

10. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

11. Third-Party Recipients

Where you have expressly consented, your personal data may be shared with:

• Relevant cruise lines.
• Content creators running or sponsoring surveys.
• Service providers that assist us in operating our website or processing data on our behalf, subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations.

12. International Transfers

Where personal data is transferred outside your country of residence, we will take appropriate steps to ensure that suitable safeguards are in place as required by applicable data protection laws.
