Privacy & Client Discretion Policy

When you interact with Rapide Yacht Group online, via concierge phone lines, or through tailored yacht charter briefs, we collect information necessary to fulfill your maritime inquiry.

This includes: (a) Identification information (full name, email address, telephone number, country of residency); (b) Charter specifications (desired cruising grounds, target charter dates, guest count, cabin layout requirements); (c) For finalized charters: passport copies, dietary preference sheets, and maritime clearance forms required by customs authorities.

We process your data strictly to: deliver tailored charter proposals; check real-time multihull calendar availability; prepare formal charter agreements; coordinate onboard provisioning with yacht chefs; and facilitate secure escrow wires.

We do not use automated profiling or algorithmic scoring to make legal decisions concerning your booking eligibility.

International maritime regulations mandate that yacht captains submit an official crew and passenger manifest prior to entering territorial waters, marine national parks, or international ports of entry.

Passenger data is transmitted securely to the vessel Master over encrypted channels and presented exclusively to sovereign immigration, customs, and coast guard officers. We do not retain copies of guest passports on unencrypted public web servers.

Rapide Yacht Group does not store full credit card numbers or banking account passwords. Charter wires and security deposits are conducted via verified SWIFT, Fedwire, or regulated maritime escrow escrow institutions.

Wire instructions from Rapide Yacht Group are verbally verified via phone confirmation protocols to prevent intercept fraud.
