This information is collectively referred to as ‘Profile Information’ in this Privacy Notice.

Information collected may include Profile Information for yourself and those traveling with you. By providing us with the Profile Information of any third party, you confirm that you have the authority to do so on their behalf and have provided them with the information set out in this Privacy Notice.

How Do We Use the Information We Collect?

USC uses the information we collect primarily for the purposes of our legitimate business interests, such as: to provide a better customer service to you; to improve and tailor our services to you including meeting your needs and preferences, such as if you require a wheelchair or dietary preferences; to contact you about special promotions and new products, and for other purposes set out in this Privacy Notice.

We also process your personal information for the purposes of entering into and fulfilling our agreement with you, including to provide you products, services or membership benefits you request, and to comply with applicable legal obligations as detailed in this Privacy Notice (for example, providing certain information to governmental and recognized law enforcement agencies).

We use your credit card information to complete your purchase. We may keep your credit card and passport information on file and on our servers to enable you to book additional services, make purchases on board more easily, to facilitate your boarding procedure and other transactions between us, and to resolve disputes as may arise between us and you.

Information We Collect or Store Automatically

We automatically collect certain types of usage information when you visit the Site(s), receive USC emails, or otherwise engage with us. For example, we use cookies to better understand our Site usage information and to improve our Site and our user experience. Some methods we use to collect this usage information are explained below.

Cookies are small text files containing a string of alphanumeric characters placed on your devices that uniquely identify your browser and let us help you log in faster and enhance your navigation through the Site. A cookie may also convey information to us about how you use the Site(s) (e.g., the pages you view, the links you click, how frequently you access the Site(s), and other actions you take on the Site(s)), and allow us to track your usage of the Site(s) over time.

Log file information may include anonymous information such as your web request, Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, information about your mobile device, referring / exit pages and URLs, number of clicks and how you interact with links on the Site(s), domain names, landing pages, pages viewed, and other such information.

Embedded scripts are a type of programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the Site(s) such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your device from our web server or a third-party service provider, is active only while you are connected to the Site(s), and is deactivated or deleted thereafter.

Browser fingerprinting includes collection and analysis of information from your device, such as, without limitation, your operating system, plug-ins, system fonts and other data, for purposes of identifying your browser and device.

Entity tags (“ETags”) are a feature of the cache of information from device browsers. ETags are an opaque identifier assigned by a web server to a specific version of a resource found at a URL.  If the resource content at that URL ever changes, a new and different ETag is assigned. Used in this manner, ETags are a form of Device Identifier.  ETag tracking may generate unique tracking values even where the consumer blocks HTTP, Flash, and/or HTML5 cookies.

Recognition technologies apply statistical probability tools to data sets in an attempt to recognize or make assumptions about users and devices. This information helps us to identify you across multiple devices that you may use, analyze and improve the Site(s) and present you with information based on these assumptions.

When you access the Site(s) by or through a mobile device, we may receive or collect and store unique identification numbers associated with your device or our mobile application (including, for example, a UDID, Unique ID for Advertisers (“IDFA”), Google Ad ID, or Windows Advertising ID), mobile carrier, device type, model and manufacturer, mobile device operating system brand and model, phone number, and, depending on your mobile device settings, your geographical location data, including GPS coordinates (e.g. latitude and/or longitude) or similar information regarding the location of your mobile device.

How do we use the information we collect or store automatically?

We use or may use the data and any personal information collected through the above methods for our legitimate business interests, namely to: (a) remember information so that you will not have to re-enter it during your session or the next time you visit the website(s); (b) provide and serve custom, personalized advertising; (c) identify and recognize you across multiple devices; (d) provide and monitor the effectiveness of the Site(s); (e) monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors, traffic, usage, and demographic patterns on our website and the Site(s); (f) diagnose or fix technology problems; and (g) otherwise to plan for and enhance our services and Site(s). For more information, please see the Online Advertising section below.

The information generated by the above methods may be transmitted to and stored on servers in the United States. Although we do our best to honor the privacy preferences of our users, we are unable to respond to Do Not Track signals set by your browser at this time.

If you would prefer not to accept cookies, most browsers will allow you to: (i) change your browser settings to notify you when you receive a cookie, which lets you choose whether or not to accept it; (ii) disable existing cookies; or (iii) set your browser to automatically reject cookies. Please note that doing so may negatively impact your experience using the Site(s). Depending on your mobile device and operating system, you may not be able to delete or block all cookies. Please review the section below titled ‘Online Advertising’ for more details. You may also set your e-mail options to prevent the automatic downloading of images that may contain technologies that would allow us to know whether you have accessed our e-mail and performed certain functions with it.

We do not retain personal information for longer than necessary to fulfill these purposes and in accordance with applicable law. For information on third parties we share your information with, please see the Disclosing Information to Third Parties section below.

Security Procedures to Protect Information

Security of personal information is extremely important to us. USC employs physical, administrative and technical security measures designed to prevent unauthorized access to your personal information collected on and used by USC at our Site(s) and when providing our Services. Our Site(s) uses SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) security technology to encrypt information you provide to us through the Site, but any information you provide us by email or fax is unencrypted. SSL is an industry-standard protocol for encryption over the internet. Data transmission over the internet is never 100% secure. While we take steps to protect your personal information and keep it secure, you also play a role in protecting your information. You can help to maintain the security of your online transactions by not sharing your login information, booking number or password with anyone. USC cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us or from our Site(s), and therefore you use our Site(s) at your own risk.

Transferring Your Data
USC is headquartered in Bermuda, and has operations, entities and service providers in Bermuda and throughout the world. We may need to process your personal information worldwide, for example on board our partnerships (depending upon the destinations you travel to with us); where a service provided has operations / processing facilities in another country; or where we have to provide personal information to immigration authorities, port agents or excursion operators in destination countries.

If you are based in the EU, this may involve sending your personal information to countries outside the EU where data protection rules may not be as stringent as in the EU. Such transfers are made pursuant to appropriate safeguards. In addition, from time to time, personal information may need to be shared with other companies outside of the EU, or accessed by companies from outside of the EU, in order to provide the services you request from us. For these transfers, we use ‘standard contractual clauses’ to ensure the adequacy of the transfer. If you wish to enquire further about these transfers, please contact us using the details set out at the end of the Privacy Notice.

For Customers in the EU
If you reside in the EU, you are entitled to the following rights in respect of personal information that we hold:

• Right of Access. The right to obtain access to your personal information.
• Right to Rectification: The right to obtain rectification of your personal information without undue delay where that personal information is inaccurate or incomplete.
• Right to Erasure. The right to obtain the erasure of your personal information without undue delay in certain circumstances, such as where the personal information is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or processed.
• Right to Restriction. The right to obtain the restriction of the processing undertaken by us on your personal information in certain circumstances, such as where the accuracy of the personal information is contested by you, for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of that personal information.
• Right to Object. The right to object to us processing personal information relating to you.
• Right to Port. The right to obtain certain personal information from us in a format that can be transferred electronically to a third party.
• Right to be Informed. The right to be informed about the personal information being processed.

In some cases, our ability to uphold these rights for you may depend upon our obligations to process personal information for security, safety, fraud prevention reasons, compliance with regulatory or legal requirements, or because processing is necessary to deliver the services you have requested. Where this is the case, we will inform you of specific details in response to your request. You may contact our marketing department to discuss how to exercise those rights by sending an email to [email protected]
