e) User-Generated Content
Meal plans, grocery lists, notes, and provisioning information are stored locally on the user's device only. We do not access, transmit, or store this content on our servers unless a future feature clearly states otherwise.

Sources of Data
- Directly from users — information voluntarily provided, including support requests or feedback.
- Automatically through the App — limited technical and analytics information via device systems or analytics tools.
- Third-party platforms — limited subscription or transactional confirmations from app store providers for purchase validation.
Third-Party Services
The App may use trusted third-party providers for technical operation, analytics, subscription validation, or app distribution:
We do not sell personal data to third parties. Only limited information necessary for operation of the App may be shared with service providers.
International Data Transfers
Some third-party providers may process limited technical or analytics data outside the EEA, including in the United States. Where international transfers occur, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission and contractual protections implemented by service providers.
We aim to minimize international transfers and limit processed data to what is necessary. Users may contact us for further information.
Data Retention and Storage
a) Local Storage
User-generated content is stored locally on the user's device. Deleting the App generally removes locally stored data. Users are responsible for their own backups unless explicitly provided within the App.
b) Subscription Information
Subscription and purchase records are retained by app store providers according to their own policies and legal obligations.
c) Technical and Analytics Data
Retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for operational, security, debugging, or legal purposes.
Automated Decision-Making
The App does not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on users.
Security Measures
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure, including:
- encrypted communications where applicable;
- limited access to systems and data;
- use of trusted service providers;
- monitoring of service integrity and security.
No system can guarantee absolute security; users acknowledge that use of digital services involves inherent risks.
Children's Privacy
The App is not intended for children under the age of 14. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 14. If we become aware that such data has been collected unlawfully, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
User Rights
Under GDPR and applicable law, users may have the right to:
- access their personal data;
- request correction of inaccurate data;
- request deletion of personal data;
- restrict processing;
- object to processing;
- withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority.
Where technically feasible, users may also request portability of personal data. Submit requests to: privacy@mareblusailing.it
