Last update 26/1/2023 Your privacy is important to us at ORC. We developed this Privacy Policy to provide you with information on how we process your personal data when you use ORC websites and when your boat's certificate is issued by your local rating office or the ORC central rating office. Categories of Personal Data Processed by ORCPersonal data that is processed when you register with ORC Sailor Services:When registering, we ask you to provide your email address and name. If you wish you can choose to provide your first name or a nickname instead of your full name. We process your email address because you use it along with your password to sign in on Sailor Services. Your password itself is initially transmitted to the email address you provided. We need to process your email address in order to protect the security of your account. We also process your email address to deliver to you the digital products you ordered for us, such as the ORC Speed Guide and the Target Speeds, and update your account balance with Sailor Services credits or other products you purchase from the ORC and pay using Paypal or Stripe. Furthermore, we may process your email address in order to send you other important information about your account security, about products that you have purchased from the ORC, and respond to your inquiries or requests or questions. Personal data that is processed when you sign in to Sailor Services with social media credentials:If you choose to sign in using your social media (such as Facebook or Google) credentials, the only information processed and retained is your email address and fullname. This information is made available to Sailor Services by the social media provider due to the way the social sign-on configuration works. If you do not want your information to be shared with Sailor Services by the social media provider, then you can simply sign in to your Sailor Services account using your Sailor Services credentials (email and password) instead of your social media account credentials. Sailor Services associates the email address provided by the social media provider with your Sailor Services account so that you can use your email address to sign in to your Sailor Services account in the future if you no longer wish to sign in using your social media account credentials. Processing this information serves in providing you an alternative sign-in method and in securing your account.
