We design intimate dive trips. We treat your data the same way: with discretion, care, and only what is strictly necessary. This page explains what we collect, why, and the rights you keep over it.

To organize your trip, we share strictly necessary information (names, dates, certifications) with our local partners — dive centers, liveaboards, hotels, transport providers — bound by confidentiality.
