Personal Information 

“Personal Data” or “Personal Information” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (the “data subject”), including but not limited to its name, contact details, name, contact details, identification numbers, preferences, economic and social data.

Depending on whether you just visit our Platform or register to become a member, we collect different types of information. However, we always obtain your permission and it is always your choice to share this Personal Information with us. We generally collect only the minimum amount of Personal Information necessary to facilitate our matchmaking and co-living services (see more under Section 3 below).

Our Platform is not intended for persons younger than 18 years. If you are younger than 18 years old , please do not share any of your Personal Information with us! 

Data Controller

The Data Controller responsible for any processing of your Personal Information is:

For any issue concerning or related with the processing of your Personal Data by NautiSharing, please contact us here: [email protected].

Personal Data, purposes and legal bases

Upon registering on the NautiSharing platform, your first and last name, email, and password are initially required. This basic information serves to create your personalized NautiSharing account, processed under the legal basis of contract performance (Article 6, par. 1b GDPR).

After your registration is complete, you have the option to add details such as your location and types of luxury boats you’re interested in. This extra information helps us understand which boat types to focus on offering. This data is processed under our legitimate interest to provide better services to our members (Article 6, par. 1f GDPR).

Should you decide to apply for a share in a luxury boat, this involves scheduling a call with our admin team. Once terms are agreed upon and enough interested parties are found, you can proceed to payment for acquiring your share. This process is based on your consent.

Disclosure and transfer of Personal Data

We may share some of your Personal Data with third parties, such as:

• Legal advisors and facilitators for the establishment of the co-ownership entity;
• Boat dealerships or maintenance companies;
• Web hosting service providers;
• Financial advisors for contractual matters;
• Online payment processing providers to handle your share purchases;
• Marketing service providers for service optimization;

In all these cases, whether these third party recipients act either as processors on our behalf, or as joint controllers, or as independent controllers, we ensure, to the maximum extent possible and within the limits of our responsibility as Data Controller, that they will treat as confidential your Personal Data that we disclose to them, they will take appropriate security measures, they will not further disclose this data and will generally comply with the legal data privacy framework. Under no circumstances do we assume responsibility for any unlawful use or processing of your Personal Data by the above recipients, which exceeds our limits of liability, as determined by applicable laws.

We do not transfer your Personal Information outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Should there ever be a need for such a transfer, you will be asked for your explicit consent in compliance with relevant legal provisions (Article 49 par. 1a GDPR).

Retention Period

We will retain your Personal Data for the minimum time necessary to fulfill the specific purposes for which we collected it. Typically, this means we will keep your information until you deactivate or delete your account on the NautiSharing app. However, certain types of Personal Data may be kept for an extended period if mandated by legal obligations or if there is a legitimate reason for doing so. For instance, invoices and other accounting-related data are stored for a period defined by applicable laws, usually for 12 years or more.

Data protection and Information Security

We consider the confidentiality, integrity and security of your Personal Information as crucial in order to build trustful relationships with our users . Therefore, principles and measures of data privacy by default and by design are built in the very core of our business. We are continuously taking into account the latest technological advances, assessing risks and adopting improvements to our Information Security systems in order to keep your information and Personal Data secure. We are complying with professional Information Security standards and we are continuously improving our technical and organizational measures to provide adequate levels of data protection. 

Data subjects’ rights

As data subjects, you have the following rights with respect to your Personal Information:

• the right of access;
• the right of rectification;
• the right of erasure (‘right to be forgotten’);
• the right to restriction of data processing;
• the right to data portability;
• the right to object;
• the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling and
• the right to withdraw your consent, where the legal basis of processing is consent.

Please note that, depending on the purpose and the legal basis of the processing, some of the rights may not be exercisable in full. For example, we may not be able to fulfill a deletion request if there is a legal obligation for the retention of your Personal Data.

You can exercise your rights by contacting us at the following e-mail address: [email protected]. We will use our best efforts to respond promptly to any request regarding your Personal Data. If, due to the complexity of the request, more than one (1) month is needed in order to properly respond, we will promptly notify you about the delay and the reasons for the delay. Under no circumstances it will take more than two (2) months to respond to your request.

If you are not satisfied with our response or if you think that our processing of your Personal Information violates the applicable privacy laws, you can lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The contact information of the Croatian supervisory body is:
