Our Privacy Policy

OUR PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy applies to Blue Ocean Enterprises, Inc., and to its subsidiaries, Blue Ocean Real Estate Management, LLC, Blue Ocean Aviation, LLC, and Blue Ocean Caribbean Enterprises, Ltd. (“BOE”). BOE is responsible for the processing of your personal information (also referred to as personal data) when you interact with our website, www.blueocean-inc.com (the “Website”), use our services, apply for career opportunities, contact us for information in-person or via the telephone or email, and any other sites or services under our control where this Privacy Policy is displayed. You may contact us at any time via the methods described below.

This Privacy Policy may change from time to time (see Changes to Our Privacy Policy). Your continued use of this Website after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the policy periodically for updates.

This Privacy Policy also covers our collection, use and disclosure of personal information that we process to provide business services, such as legal, financial, human resources, information technology, privacy, information security, physical security, real estate, and aviation services, to clients. The use of information collected through our services is limited to the purpose of providing the service for which our clients have engaged BOE.

The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to inform you how we collect, use, and share your personal information, and the choices you have regarding our use of, and your ability to review, access and correct, such information.

We value your privacy, and we make this policy easily accessible throughout our site to assist you in understanding the way information is handled. At BOE we want to make your online experience easy and safe. Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we want you to fully understand our policies surrounding the attainment and use of that information.

EU-U.S. DATA PRIVACY FRAMEWORK WITH UK-U.S. EXTENTION, AND SWISS-U.S. DATA PRIVACY FRAMEWORK

BOE participates in and has certified its compliance with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (UK-U.S. DPF), and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF). BOE is committed to subjecting all personal data received from European Union (EU) member countries, the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar), and Switzerland, respectively, in reliance on the relevant parts of the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) Program, to the DPF Principles. To learn more about the DPF, and to view our certification, visit the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Data Privacy Framework List.

BOE is responsible for the processing of personal data it receives, under each DPF, and subsequent transfers to a third party acting as an agent on its behalf. BOE complies with the DPF Principles for all onward transfers of personal data from the EU, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, including the onward transfer liability provisions.

With respect to personal data received or transferred pursuant to the DPF, BOE is subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC). In certain situations, BOE may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

If you have an unresolved privacy or data use concern that we have not addressed satisfactorily, please contact our U.S.-based alternative dispute resolution provider (free of charge) at TRUSTe Feedback and Resolution System.

Under certain conditions you may invoke binding arbitration when other dispute resolution procedures have been exhausted, more fully described on the DPF website.
