Privacy Policy
Updated: January 16, 2024
At Sixthman Ltd., our mission is to provide the best possible festival cruise and event experiences for our guests. This mission applies to all our activities including the products and experiences we offer during our festival cruises and events, at the destinations and ports of call we visit during our festival cruises and events, and online through websites and interactive features, including applications, widgets, blogs, social networks, social network "tabs," and other online or mobile offerings (which we collectively call the "Services"). Our Services are owned and/or operated, either directly or through our service providers and business partners, by Sixthman Ltd. and our partner brand, Norwegian Cruise Line, which operates the majority of our festival cruises (we refer to Sixthman and Norwegian Cruise Line together as the "Company," "we," "our," or "us").
This Privacy Policy describes what data we collect online and offline and how we use, share, and secure that data. It also describes your choices regarding use, access, correction, and deletion of your personal data. Personal data is information, or a combination of different types of information, that could allow you to be identified.
We encourage you to review our Privacy Policy and click on the available links if you want additional information on a particular topic.
By providing us with your personal information or otherwise using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service.
When you attend an event or take a festival cruise with us, register to attend an event or take a festival cruise with us, set up an account through one of our websites, request information about our Company, communicate with us, visit our websites, apply for employment with us, sign up for our promotions, contests, sweepstakes, or webinars or access our Services through various other methods, we collect data about you and those interactions.
Data we collect directly from you or other sources
We may collect the following categories of data either directly from you or from our business partners or third parties and in accordance with applicable law:
Data collected when you create an account with us, purchase our products, or use our Services may include data about yourself, those traveling or attending an event with you, and your emergency contacts. By providing us with the personal data of any third party, you confirm that you have the authority to do so on their behalf and have provided them with the information set forth in this Privacy Policy.
We operate closed circuit television ("CCTV") cameras on Norwegian Cruise Line’s ships, including at all access points and throughout public areas. These CCTV cameras record continually and images of you may appear in these recordings.
Please be aware that Norwegian Cruise Line has photographers on board taking photographs for guests to purchase. If you would not like to be photographed, please let the photographers know and they would be happy to take reasonable steps to comply with your request. Please note that we are unable to guarantee that you will not be included in photographs on an incidental basis.
Data we collect automatically
When you access websites or otherwise receive Services, and to the extent permissible under applicable law, we automatically collect some categories of data from you, including data collected using cookies, embedded scripts, and other tracking technologies (“Cookies and Tracking Technologies”), for website analytics to improve your online experience, analyze website usage, provide better security, and to personalize online and offline marketing. More information about our use of Cookies and Tracking Technologies and your choices are available in our Cookie Policy. We do not respond to Do Not Track signals. To learn about Do Not Track and for information about how to opt out of receiving targeted advertising, please visit our Cookie Policy.
Special or sensitive categories of personal data
Some of the categories of data that we collect in connection with the provision of our Services or through the employment application process may constitute special categories of personal data (also known as sensitive personal data). In particular, we may collect personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, religious, philosophical, or political beliefs, sexual orientation, or data concerning health, such as medical history or dietary restrictions, if in connection with our provision of Services or through the employment application process.
We collect this information when you choose to provide it to us or to a service provider or third party such as a travel agent or through the employment application process. We use this information to provide a service you request, such as medical care on board one of our festival cruises (whether in person or through our telehealth services), or special dietary accommodations, or in connection with your application for employment.
If, while traveling with us or attending an event, you allege a personal injury or submit a claim after alleging a personal injury, we may collect personal data concerning the alleged incident, including healthcare information.
Optional facial recognition technology
With your consent, Norwegian Cruise Line may use facial comparison technology to facilitate and expedite your embarkation and/or disembarkation by taking your photograph and matching it against the photograph they collected from you during check-in or embarkation. When there is a match, you will be able to board the ship or be checked out of your festival cruise.
Separately, Norwegian Cruise Line may securely provide your disembarkation photograph to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”), who uses its own facial comparison technology to match the photograph against images of you that CBP already has on file from your passport, other travel documents or prior CBP border inspections. Once Norwegian Cruise Line receives verification of your identity from CBP, Norwegian Cruise Line will delete your disembarkation photograph immediately. Norwegian Cruise Line does not retain your facial recognition data beyond the duration of your festival cruise or use it for any other purpose other than those described above. If you are a U.S. citizen, CBP will maintain your photograph for no more than 12 hours. For certain non-U.S. citizens, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will store your photograph for a longer period. For more information on how CBP uses your biometric data, please visit www.cbp.gov/travel/biometrics.
Global health data
For the health and safety of our guests and crew, we may process additional personal data during a pandemic or other global health crisis, including taking individuals’ temperatures through means such as thermal imaging cameras.
If we are made aware that an individual is exhibiting symptoms of an infectious disease, we may evaluate our transaction data and photographs taken during your cruise and may run facial recognition technology on our CCTV footage to notify the persons who were in close proximity with the affected individual and take appropriate action to mitigate the spread of the disease. Such steps may include medical examinations, testing, containment, and/or disembarkation of the affected persons.
We may use your personal data for the following purposes:
Customer Testimonials
We may publish guest testimonials on our mailings, brochures, websites, and social media pages. Prior to publishing the testimonial, we obtain guests’ consent to publish their names, usernames, festival cruise dates, photos, videos, event, and travel destinations along with their testimonial, as applicable. If you wish to update or delete your testimonial, you can contact us via the methods described under “How to Contact Us.”
We may share any of the categories of personal data described above with third parties under the following circumstances, as permitted under applicable laws and regulations:
All of the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent collected for Sixthman Alerts; this information will only be shared with third parties necessary for administering Sixthman Alerts and to comply with our legal obligations under applicable law.
We implement physical, technical, and organizational security measures designed to safeguard the personal data we process. These measures are aimed at providing ongoing integrity and confidentiality of your personal data. We evaluate and update these measures on a regular basis.
The Company takes reasonable precautions to attempt to ensure the safety and security of our customers’ online transactions. Billing information is encrypted and transmitted through strong encryption technology.
We retain your personal data for as long as we have a relationship with you or in accordance with applicable law, and such relationship includes any request to receive marketing or other promotional materials from us or membership in our loyalty programs. When deciding how long to keep your personal data after our relationship with you has ended, we take into account our legal obligations, including requirements of regulators and governmental agencies that have authority over us. We may also retain records to investigate or defend against potential legal claims.
We will delete or anonymize your personal data at the end of the retention period. If there is any information that we are unable, for technical reasons, to delete entirely from our systems, we will put in place appropriate measures to prevent any further processing or use of the data.
