The information that follows applies to all of these platforms.

If you disagree with this Privacy and Cookies Policy, you should discontinue using our services.
Privacy
What kind of personal information does Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) use?
When you make a request, you'll be asked for your name, address, telephone number, email address, payment details, the names of guests traveling with you and your preferences for your stay. To make it easier to manage your reservations, you will need to open a user account. This allows you to save your personal settings, review previous bookings and manage future reservations.
When you visit our website, even if you don't make a reservation, we may collect certain information, like your IP address, which browser you’re using, and information about your computer’s operating system, application version, language settings and pages that have been shown to you. If you're using a mobile device, we might also collect data that identifies your mobile device, device-specific settings and characteristics, and latitude/longitude details. When you make a reservation, our system registers through which means and from which websites you've made your reservation. We may also receive information about you when you use certain social media services.
Why does Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) collect, use and share your personal data?
Reservations: First and foremost, we use your personal data to complete and administer your online reservation and forward your reservation details to the Yacht you've booked.
Customer Service: We provide international customer service via e-mail to sales@skyfallyachtcharter.com. Sharing your details with our global customer service staff allows us to respond when you need us – including helping you find appropriate yacht(s) and responding to any questions you might have about your reservation.
Guest Reviews: We use your contact information to invite you by email to write a guest review after your travel. This can help other travelers choose the Yacht(s) that suit them best.
Account Administration: We offer a user account facility on our website. We use the information you give us to administer this, allowing you to manage your bookings, take advantage of special offers, make future reservations more easily and manage your personal settings.
Managing personal settings allows you to keep and share lists, share photos, see Yacht(s) you've searched for before, and see other information you've provided about Yacht(s) and destinations. It also allows you to see any reviews you've submitted about Yacht(s) you have traveled with. If you want, you can share certain information in your user account by creating a public profile that’s associated with either your own first name or a screen name of your choice.
For example: When you make a reservation with us or set up a user account, we may use your contact information to send you news about similar travel-related products and services. With your consent—if consent is required under local law—we may also send you other regular newsletters by email. You can opt out, or unsubscribe, from marketing communications at any time using the "Unsubscribe" link in each newsletter, or you can administer your subscriptions through your account (if you've created one). Based on the information you share with us, individualized offers may be shown to you on the Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) website, in mobile apps or on third-party websites, including social media sites. These might be offers that you can book directly on the Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) website, or third-party offers or products we think you might find interesting. If we believe that a particular offer may be of interest to you, we may decide to contact you by phone.
Other Communications: There may be other times when we get in touch with you by email, traditional mail, phone or text message, depending on the contact information you share with us.
There could be a number of reasons for this: We may need to respond to and handle requests you've made. If you haven't finalized a reservation online, we may email you a reminder to continue with your reservation. We believe that this additional service is useful to you because it allows you to carry on with a reservation without having to search for the Yacht(s)again or fill in all the reservation details from scratch. When you use our services, we may send you a questionnaire or invite you to provide a review about your experience with Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com). We may also send you other material related to your reservations, such as how to contact Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) if you need assistance while you're away, and information that we feel might be useful to you in planning your trip or getting the best out of it. We may also send you material related to upcoming reservations or a summary of previous reservations you made through Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com).
Market Research: We sometimes ask our customers to take part in market research. Any additional personal details that you give us as part of the market research will only be used with your consent.
Fraud Detection and Prevention: We may use personal data for the detection and prevention of fraud and other illegal or unwanted activities.
Improving Our Services: Finally, we use personal data for analytical purposes, to improve our services, to enhance the user experience, and to improve the functionality and quality of our online travel services.
How does Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) use social media? We use social media to promote our Yacht/Skipper providers’ properties and to promote, improve and facilitate our own services. For example, we integrated social media plugins into the Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) website. So when you click on one of the buttons and register with your social media account, information is shared with your social media provider, and possibly presented on your social media profile to be shared with others in your network. In addition to implementing these buttons, Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) uses social media by maintaining accounts and offering apps on several social media sites.
These social media services may allow you to share information with Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com). When you register with a social media app, you'll be told which information will be shared with Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com). The information you choose to share with us may include the basic information that’s available in your social media profile, email address, status updates and your list of friends. This information is necessary to create a unique user experience either in the app itself or on our websites. It facilitates things like personalizing our website to suit your needs, connecting you with your friends on travel destinations, and analyzing and enhancing our travel-related services. We may also enable you to sign in to Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) services with your social media accounts. Your social media provider will be able to tell you more about how they use and process your data in such cases.
How does Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) share your data with third parties? In certain circumstances, we may share your personal data with third parties.
The Yacht You Booked: In order to complete your reservation, we need to transfer relevant reservation details to the Yacht you've booked. This may include information such as your name, your contact details, your payment details, the names of guests traveling with you and any preferences you specified when making a booking. This information may also be used by Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) or the Yacht/Skipper providers to give you personalized offers related to the reservation. If you have a question about your reservation, we may contact the Yacht/Skipper provider and ask them to handle your request.
Your Local Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) Office: In order to provide 24/7 service to our customers and support our local Yacht/Skipper providers and distribution partners worldwide, your details are shared with local Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) offices. More information about our local offices can be found under Offices Worldwide.
Third-party Service Providers: We may use service providers (such as "data processors") to process your personal data strictly on our behalf. This processing would be for purposes such as facilitating reservation payments, sending out marketing material or for analytical support services. These processors are bound by confidentiality clauses and are not allowed to use your personal data for their own purposes or any other purpose.
Competent Authorities: We disclose personal data to law enforcement and other governmental authorities insofar as it is required by law or is strictly necessary for the prevention, detection or prosecution of criminal acts and fraud.
Business Partners: We work with business partners around the world to distribute or advertise Yachts/Skippers and to help our business partners distribute and advertise their travel-related services. This may mean that their services are integrated into our website or they have been enabled to show a customized advertisement on our website – or we are advertising on theirs. When you make a reservation on one of our business partners’ websites, certain personal data that you give them will be forwarded to us. Certain business partners may receive your personal data from us if requested by you. When you make a reservation on a business partners’ website, please read the privacy policies on these business partners’ websites for more information.
How does Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) use mobile devices? We have free apps for a variety of mobile devices and use versions of our regular website that have been optimized for mobile. These apps and mobile websites process the personal details you give us in much the same way as our website does – and they also allow you to use location services to find Yacht/Skipper providers nearby. With your consent, we may send you push notifications with information about your reservation.
How does Booking Mangement (bookingmng.com) use guest reviews and other destination-related information you share with us? After your stay at any Yacht booked through us, you'll be invited to submit a guest review. This invite may ask for information about the Yacht, the service received, and the destination. If you don’t want to use your name with the review, you can use a screen name (which you can choose in your user account), or the review can be displayed on the website anonymously. By completing a guest review, you're agreeing that it can be displayed (as described in detail in our Terms and Conditions) on, for example, the relevant Yacht/Skipper information page on our websites, in our mobile apps, in our social media accounts and in social apps, or on the website of the relevant Yacht/Skipper providers or our business partner’s website, to inform other travelers about the quality and services at the Yacht you traveled with. If you indicate that a guest review was helpful—or not helpful—we'll aggregate this with feedback from other customers in order to sort and prioritize guest reviews. We may use the information in your lists or in other destination-related information you share with us in anonymous form—unless you've included this information in your public profile—to help other travelers find the right destination.
