This Privacy Policy explains how Bandama Charters ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you visit bandamacharters.com or send us an enquiry. We are committed to handling your information in line with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Maltese data-protection law.
Who we are
Bandama Charters operates private yacht charters from Creek Marina, Pontoon N, Ta' Xbiex/Msida, Malta. For any questions about this policy or your personal data, contact us at simonborgcardona001@gmail.com or on WhatsApp at +356 9949 6510.
What data we collect
When you submit our enquiry form or contact us, we may collect:
- Contact details — your name, email address, and phone number.
- Enquiry details — your preferred charter date, number of guests, and any message you send us.
- Technical data — anonymised information such as your approximate location, device, and how you arrived at our site (for example, which ad or link you clicked), collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies.
How we use your data
We use your personal data to:
- Respond to your enquiry and arrange your charter booking.
- Communicate with you about your booking, including by phone, email, or WhatsApp.
- Understand how our website and advertising perform, so we can improve them.
Our lawful basis for processing your enquiry is to take steps at your request before entering into a contract, and our legitimate interest in responding to potential customers.
The tools we use
We use a number of trusted third-party services that may process your data on our behalf:
- Tally — to collect and manage enquiry-form submissions.
- Google (Sheets, Analytics, Tag Manager) — to store enquiries and measure website performance.
- Meta (Facebook & Instagram) Pixel — to measure the performance of our advertising and reach relevant audiences.
- WhatsApp (Meta) — if you choose to contact us via WhatsApp.
These providers process data under their own privacy policies. Some are based outside the EU; where that is the case, appropriate safeguards are in place for international data transfers.
Cookies and tracking
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to make the site work, to analyse traffic, and to measure advertising. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how the website functions.
How long we keep your data
We keep enquiry data only as long as necessary to respond to you and manage any resulting booking, and to meet legal or accounting obligations. When it is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, and to data portability. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at simonborgcardona001@gmail.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Information and Data Protection Commissioner (IDPC) in Malta at idpc.org.mt.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available on this page, with the revision date shown above.
