ACI collects and processes the personal data of prospective and existing customers, as well as other service users, primarily in order to fulfil your requests (responding to enquiries, preparing offers, booking berths, arranging appointments), manage and improve our business operations and relationship with you, and conduct research activities.

All information ACI requests is used exclusively for the following purposes:

  • Analytics and research: Conducting market research and internal statistical analysis in order to better understand customer needs and improve business strategies.

Combining and analysing data

We may combine your personal data with information collected from third parties (e.g. marketing agencies providing socioeconomic data or online identifiers) in order to better understand your interests. This enables us to develop and improve our processes, products and services provided to you. This may include, for example, implementing our business strategy, evaluating the effectiveness of our marketing and customer service activities, conducting market research, identifying products and services that may be of interest to you and contacting you regarding such products and services.

In partnership with third parties, and provided that you have consented to the use of cookies, we may also display personalised advertisements on social media platforms or while you browse the internet and visit other websites (more information is available in the Cookie Statement).

Legal and regulatory compliance

Personal data is processed in order to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, respond to legal proceedings and requests for information issued by public authorities or third parties, prevent and detect fraud, and protect your rights as well as the rights of others.

Data retention period

We store your personal data in a form that permits identification only for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfil the above purposes or while one of the following conditions applies:

  1. The data is required for the provision of requested services and products.

  2. The data is necessary to protect and defend our rights or property (within the legally prescribed limitation periods).

  3. A legal obligation to retain the data exists (e.g. tax and accounting regulations).

ACI guarantees that the collected data will be used solely for the above-mentioned purposes, based on lawful grounds for processing in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data Protection Regulation – GDPR) and the Croatian Act on the Implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (Official Gazette NN 42/2018), as well as applicable national legislation.

In addition to this Policy, certain ACI products and services (including some ACI applications and other ACI websites) may have their own privacy policies that describe in more detail how your personal data is collected, processed and stored in those specific contexts.

  1. Protection of children’s personal data

ACI would appreciate it if your children do not provide any personal information without your permission. ACI advises parents and guardians to educate children about the safe and responsible handling of personal data on the internet. 

As a general rule, ACI does not collect personal data relating to individuals under the age of 18, except in specific situations such as prize draws, and always subject to parental consent. Any online contact information collected from children without parental permission will be used solely for the direct response to the child’s request and will not be used for any other purpose. 

ACI does not disclose any personal data to third parties without prior parental consent. 

ACI does not allow children to, without parental consent, publicly post or otherwise distribute personal data or other materials that could enable them to be contacted, nor do we encourage children to disclose more information than is necessary to participate in a prize draw or other activity.

Where children under the age of 18 are permitted to participate in prize draws, ACI requires the child to first obtain permission from a parent or legal guardian and to provide the email address of the parent or guardian. If a child under the age of 18 wins a prize, the parents or guardians will be informed by email, telephone or in writing.

The personal data of both the child and the parent will be deleted from the ACI database upon request by the parent or guardian;  you always have the right to request access to all personal data relating to your child that ACI may have collected through any of our websites, request deletion of such data (provided it is still retained in our database), and/or prohibit the future collection and use of data relating to your child. If you are a parent wishing to exercise these rights, you are required to contact us with such a request. In addition to the above, we guarantee the protection of children’s personal data in accordance with applicable special legislation governing this area.

  1.  Statement regarding credit card information

ACI undertakes all measures required by law to protect credit card information. ACI, as the owner of the Website, shall not be held liable for any interception of credit card details or for any other unlawful use of credit card information in connection with the direct use of this Website. 

Credit card payments made during the booking process are processed through our partner Monri and its WSPay system, which ensures a secure and protected execution of online credit card transactions. This payment method is recommended by card issuers themselves (Visa, Mastercard, Diners etc.) because it has proven reliable in practice and, according to research, safer than conventional credit card payments in restaurants or shops. 

However, no security system or method of transmitting data over the internet can be considered completely secure. For your own protection, we recommend that you do not include your credit card details in any emails sent to ACI.

  1. Who has access to your personal data?

ACI does not sell or rent collected personal data, as such practices are contrary to this Policy. 

ACI adheres to a strict “no spam” policy. 

ACI shall not be held liable for accidental errors, errors arising from force majeure, or other objective circumstances resulting in the unintended violation of the guaranteed protection of your data; however, we guarantee such issues will be remedied as soon as possible, where feasible.

Some of our partners and service providers (e.g. providers of analytics services, cookie management tools and marketing platforms) may process your personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), including in the United States of America. In such cases, we ensure that any transfer takes place subject to appropriate safeguards in accordance with Chapter V of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), such as the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission or the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. 

Data transfers are carried out subject to the following safeguards:

  • Google LLC (USA) – analytics services (Google Analytics, Google Ads) – Data Privacy Framework

  • Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd / Meta Platforms Inc. (USA) – marketing services (Meta Pixel) – Data Privacy Framework

  • CookieYes Ltd (Ireland/USA) – cookie management services – Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)

  • Plus Hosting Grupa d.o.o. (Croatia) – Plus Hosting – web hosting services (within the EU)

  • Monri Payments d.o.o. (EU) – online payment services (within the EU)

  • Vixel d.o.o. (Croatia) – website management services (within the EU) 


ACI may also disclose your personal data to:

  • companies or other organisations hired by us to provide services on our behalf, such as web hosting companies, postal service providers, analytics service providers, event management services and information technology providers;

  • companies or other organisations with which you have requested or agreed that we may share your personal data;

  • professional advisers (such as lawyers and accountants);

  • any law enforcement agency, court, public authority or third party where we believe such disclosure is necessary to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation, protect our rights, the rights of third parties or individual personal safety, or to detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or safety issues; or

  • any third party acquiring, or to whom we transfer, all or a substantial part of our assets and business operations. In the event of such sale or transfer, we will take all reasonable steps to ensure that the entity receiving your personal data uses it in accordance with this Policy.

  1. Changes to your data

You may contact us at any time to review your personal data, as well as to update, correct or delete such data. Until such changes are made, we will continue to use your existing data for the stated purposes. 

If you encounter any difficulties in exercising your rights, please contact ACI directly in writing via email at: dpo@aci-club.hr.

  1.  Legal bases we rely upon when using your personal data

There are several legal grounds upon which we rely in order to use your personal data. We will collect and use your personal data in the following circumstances, unless such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject:

  • where the use of your personal data is necessary for the performance of one or more contracts to which you are a party, or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract. For example, such contracts may include terms under which you purchase our products and services; 

  • where the use of your personal data falls within our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of organisations with which we have shared your personal data and have taken measures to protect your personal data and your related rights;

  • for the purpose of understanding and improving our (or their) products, services, and/or marketing strategies;

  • where you have provided your consent. 

We rely on your consent, for example, when collecting technical information such as cookie data and similar technologies, as described in our Cookie Statement, and when using your personal data for direct marketing communications to you via email, post, telephone or text messages. 

You retain the right to withdraw your consent at any time. For further details, please refer to Section 12 of this Policy.

  1. Retention of personal data

We will not process your personal data for longer than is necessary and intended for the specific purpose of processing and as prescribed by the applicable legislation of the Republic of Croatia and the Terms of Use.

The protection of the privacy of your personal data is ensured on a permanent basis.

  1. Your rights

List of Rights You May Exercise:

Right of access (Article 15 of the General Data Protection Regulation)

You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed and, where that is the case, access to the personal data and the following information: the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data concerned, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data has been or will be disclosed, the envisaged period for which the personal data will be stored, and the existence of the right to request from the controller rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing personal data.

Right to rectification (Article 16 of the General Data Protection Regulation)

If we process incomplete or inaccurate personal data relating to you, you may request correction or completion of such data at any time.

Right to erasure (Article 17 of the General Data Protection Regulation)

You may request the deletion of your personal data where the purpose for which it was collected no longer exists, where the processing is unlawful, where the processing disproportionately interferes with your protected legitimate interests, or where the processing is based on your consent which has subsequently been withdrawn. However, you should be aware that there may be other grounds preventing the complete erasure of your data, such as legal retention obligations, ongoing proceedings or the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, etc. 

Right to restriction of processing (Article 18 of the General Data Protection Regulation)

You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your data if you contest the accuracy of your data, for a period enabling us to verify its accuracy; if the processing of your data is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the data and request restriction of its use instead; if we no longer require the data for the intended purposes but you still require it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or if you have objected to the processing.

Right to data portability (Article 20 of the General Data Protection Regulation)

Data which you have provided to us and which we process on the basis of your consent or for the performance of a contract, and which is processed by automated means, will, upon your request, be provided to you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. Where technically feasible, we may also transfer such data directly to another controller, depending on your request.

Right to object (Article 21 of the General Data Protection Regulation)

If you believe that your rights have been violated and that your personal data is being used improperly, you may submit a written objection. In such a case, we will no longer process the personal data unless it is demonstrated that there are legitimate grounds for processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or where processing is required for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Furthermore, where personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing purposes, including profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. Specifically, the right to object may not apply where the processing of personal data is necessary for taking steps prior to entering into a contract or for the performance of an already concluded contract. 

Right to be exempt from legal decisions based on automated decision-making and profiling 

ACI does not use automated decision-making within the meaning of Article 22 of GDPR. Automated processing for decision-making purposes will only be used where necessary in the following circumstances: 

  • where a decision based on an algorithm is necessary (i.e. there is no alternative means of achieving the same purpose) for entering into or performing a contract with the individual whose data is processed by the algorithm;

  • where the individual has given explicit consent to a decision based on an algorithm.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding how we use your personal data, or if you wish to access the information ACI has about you, exercise your right to object, or exercise any other rights relating to your personal data, please contact us so that we may clarify any issues.

Your enquiries, requests and objections which you are entitled to submit pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) may be addressed to the Data Controller (Section 2). If you are not satisfied with our response or believe that your rights have been infringed, you may also contact the Croatian Personal Data Protection Agency (AZOP) in writing at AZOP, Martićeva 14, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia, or via email at: azop@azop.hr. 

The Croatian Personal Data Protection Agency is the competent authority responsible for overseeing and enforcing rights and obligations relating to personal data protection in the Republic of Croatia.

Right to withdraw consent (Newsletter)

You may withdraw your consent to receive marketing communications at any time. 

Upon withdrawal of consent, the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes will cease. Your data will be deleted from the newsletter distribution database, except for data which we are legally required to retain under other legal bases (e.g. records of issued invoices in accordance with tax regulations). In such cases, ACI may only use the data for legally prescribed obligations or internal statistical analysis subject to appropriate protective measures. ACI guarantees that your data will be stored and used in good faith and exclusively in accordance with your decisions.

If you no longer wish to receive our marketing communications via Newsletter, please unsubscribe using the unsubscribe link located in the footer of the Newsletter or by submitting a written request to the email address dpo@aci-club.hr.
