These data are used to obtain anonymous statistical information on the use of the Website and to check its correct functioning; to enable—given the architecture of the systems used—the proper provision of the various features you request; for security reasons and for the verification of liability in the event of alleged computer crimes to the detriment of the Website or third parties.

How are Personal Data processed?
Personal Data may be freely provided by you or, in the case of browsing data, collected automatically during your use of the Website. Where specified in the forms on the Website pages (data marked with an asterisk), providing Personal Data is necessary in order to provide the requested service (e.g., purchase of a service): if you refuse to provide such data, it may be impossible to fulfil your request.

If you do not give specific consent to processing, Venice Luxury Boat will not be able to carry out the above activities.

In such cases, you qualify as an independent data controller and assume all related legal obligations and responsibilities. Accordingly, you undertake to hold Venice Luxury Boat harmless from any dispute, claim, request for damages, etc. that may be brought against Venice Luxury Boat by third parties whose Personal Data have been processed through your unsolicited submission in breach of applicable data protection rules.

Appropriate technical and organisational measures have been adopted to ensure the security of your Personal Data, taking into account the state of the art and implementation costs, as well as the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing, and the risks (of varying likelihood and severity) to rights and freedoms arising from the processing activities described in this Notice.

Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy relates exclusively to the Website and forms an integral part of the Personal Data Processing Notice for the Venice Luxury Boat Website. What is a cookie? Cookies are small text files that websites visited by a user send and store on the user’s computer or mobile device, to be transmitted back to the same websites on the next visit. Thanks to cookies, a website can remember a user’s actions and preferences (such as login data, chosen language, font size, other display settings, etc.) so that they do not need to be set again when the user returns to the website or navigates from one page to another. Cookies are therefore used to perform IT authentication, session monitoring and storage of information regarding users’ activities on a website, and may also contain a unique identifier code that enables tracking of the user’s browsing within the website for statistical or advertising purposes. While browsing a website, the user may also receive cookies from websites or web servers different from the one being visited (so-called “third-party” cookies). Some operations could not be carried out without cookies, which in certain cases are therefore technically necessary for the website to function. There are various types of cookies, depending on their characteristics and functions, and they may remain on the user’s computer or mobile device for different periods of time: so-called session cookies are automatically deleted when the browser is closed; so-called persistent cookies remain on the user’s device until a preset expiry date. Technical cookies are cookies whose use does not require the user’s consent. These cookies are essential to allow browsing of a website and use of all its functions. Without these cookies, which are strictly necessary, a website could not provide certain services or functions, and browsing would not be as smooth and easy as it should be. A cookie of this type is also used to store the user’s decision regarding the use of cookies on the website. This category also includes so-called performance cookies, sometimes called analytics cookies. These cookies collect information about how a user uses a website and allow improvements to its functioning. For example, performance cookies show which pages are most frequently visited, help verify recurring usage patterns, help understand any difficulties the user encounters while using the website, and show the effectiveness of advertising published on the website. Profiling cookies, on the other hand, are aimed at creating user profiles and are used to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user while browsing the web. The user’s prior consent is required for the use of these cookies.
