All users are fundamentally able to access the portal without personal data being collected. Users do not need to register to use the services provided by BOATSHOWEVENTS.COM.

Further details may also be requested depending on the service.

We will only use your personal data for the purposes of allowing you to access those of our services that require registration and/or payment, or to provide and invoice for services. As such, your personal data will only be requested and processed to the extent required for the purposes of the contract.

We would like to expressly point out that our partners generally have their own privacy policies, over which we have no control. We can therefore accept no liability or responsibility for the privacy policies of our partners.

Duration of data storage
We will store your personal data for as long as necessary to achieve the respective purpose or for as long as specified in the various storage periods provided for under the applicable legislation.

​

In order to ensure that the blocking of data can be taken into account at any time, the data must be retained in a blocked file for control purposes. You may also request the deletion of the data. You can also make changes to the data or revoke your consent by sending us a message detailing your request, which will then take effect for the future.

​

Changes to our Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy from time to time so as to ensure that it always complies with the current legal requirements, or in order to integrate changes in our services into the Privacy Policy, e.g. in the event that new services are introduced. The new Privacy Policy shall then apply to your next visit.

​

If you have registered with us for a personalised or chargeable service, we will notify you in writing of any such changes at least thirty (30) days in advance, usually via email. As part of this notification, we will explain the content of and reason for the change. If you do not object to the change within the notice period, it will take effect.

​

If you object to the change, the current provisions shall continue to apply for the time being. You or BOATSHOWEVENTS.COM may then terminate the contract on which your registration is based for extraordinary reasons. If you do not cancel it or if it has not been possible to deliver notice of the change, BOATSHOWEVENTS.COM may wholly or partly block your data until you have been able to read the new Privacy Policy and accept it. If your data is blocked, you may only be able to continue using our services to a limited extent, particularly new services. If there is no further contact, we may delete blocked data after a reasonable period. If the change involves the implementation of urgent legal requirements, your data will always be blocked if you object to the change or if the notice of the change cannot be delivered. In such cases, BOATSHOWEVENTS.COM may delete the data immediately after it is blocked.

​

Any such change will not affect your rights to information, correction, blocking, deletion and objection.
