Your personal data will not be disclosed to anyone outside Center unless permitted or required under applicable legislation and where necessary subject to appropriate written assurances from third parties who have access to your personal data, in which they must guarantee that they will protect the data with security measures designed to provide an adequate level of protection.

Unless you are otherwise notified, any transfers of your personal data from within the EEA to third parties outside the EEA will be based on an adequacy decision or are governed by Standard Contractual Clauses.

You can always request a copy of the transfer agreements, which includes the transfer of personal data, by sending an e-mail to info@zerocarbonshipping.com.


Automated decisions

We use automated decision-making in processing your personal data for some services and products. An example is our fraud prevention and detection efforts on our online platforms.

You may request that Center provides information about the decision-making methodology and ask us to verify that the automated decision has been made correctly.

We may reject the request, as permitted by applicable law, including when providing the information would result in a disclosure of a trade secret or would interfere with the prevention or detection of fraud or other crime. However, generally in these circumstances we will verify that the algorithm and source data are functioning as anticipated without error or bias.


Security measures

We choose to use suppliers that implement security in accordance with industry practices for good IT security, and we only use encrypted data communications when transferring sensitive and confidential personal data. We also maintain organizational, physical and technical security arrangements for all the personal data we hold. We have protocols, controls and relevant policies, procedures and guidance to maintain these arrangements taking into account the risks associated with the categories of personal data and the processing we undertake.

We store personal data on servers with limited access located in secured facilities, and our security measures are evaluated on an ongoing basis. The servers are protected by anti-virus software and firewalls, among other measures.


Personal data retention

We store your personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the purpose of the processing, unless we are obliged under applicable law or is entitled to store the personal data for a longer period, more specifically:

  • We retain your personal data as long as we have an ongoing relationship with you (in particular, if you have a contract with us or have not withdrawn your marketing consent).
