Consent
Where consent is required, we will ask you for appropriate consent before carrying out the relevant processing.
Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
6. Direct marketing
We may send information about The Deck 747, including new experiences, offers, promotions and other services, where permitted by applicable law.
Where consent is required for electronic marketing, we will obtain appropriate consent.
In certain circumstances, UK law permits us to contact existing customers about our own similar products or services without obtaining separate consent. This is sometimes referred to as the “soft opt-in”.
Where we rely on the soft opt-in, we will only do so where the applicable legal requirements are satisfied, including that:
-
we obtained the person’s contact details directly in the context of a sale or negotiation for a sale;
-
the marketing relates to our own similar products or services;
-
the person was given a clear opportunity to opt out when their contact details were collected; and
-
every subsequent marketing communication provides a simple opportunity to opt out.
The soft opt-in does not apply simply because somebody has contacted us, visited our website or had their details supplied to us by another organisation.
You can unsubscribe from our marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe facility provided or by contacting us.
We will maintain appropriate records of marketing preferences and will respect requests not to receive marketing.
We do not sell customer email addresses or personal information to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

When you use a third-party website or platform, that organisation may collect and process your personal information under its own privacy policy.
For example, if you make a purchase or booking through a third-party platform, that organisation may process your payment and booking information and provide relevant information to us so that we can fulfil the purchase or provide the experience.
The third party remains responsible for processing it carries out for its own purposes.
Where The Deck 747 receives personal information and determines the purposes for which we use it, we will process that information in accordance with this Privacy Notice and applicable data protection law.
We recommend that you read the privacy notice of any third-party website or platform you use.
