How we handle personal data.

Who we are

Sea Genesis Pvt Ltd (“we”) is the organisation responsible for personal data collected through this website. We are an offshore crew and subsea services company registered in Mumbai, India. CIN U74999MH2022PTC375430.

In privacy-law terms we are the data fiduciary under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, and the controller where the EU or UK GDPR applies. Contact details are at the end of this page. Regional rights are set out on our data policies page.

What we collect

Depending on how you use the site, we may hold:

• Identity and contact details you send us, such as your name, work email, company and the message in an enquiry.
• Recruitment details if you apply, including your role, availability, experience and any CV or certificates you attach. Please send only what we need to assess the role.
• Technical data our host may log so the site can run, such as IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time of the request.
• Your cookie choice, stored in a first-party cookie named sgm_consent and in local storage on your device.
• Analytics or advertising identifiers, only if you opt in and only when a tool in that category is active.

We do not ask you to create an account. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe we have, email us and we will delete it.

Why we use it

We do not sell personal information. We do not use enquiry or application data for targeted advertising. Client project work is governed by the contract for that work, which may add terms for operational data.

Cookies and advertising

This website uses cookies to improve your user experience, analyze site traffic and serve targeted ads in accordance with this policy. Strictly necessary cookies are always on. Experience, analytics and advertising cookies stay off until you accept them in the cookie notice. You can change that choice at any time from Cookie settings in the footer.

At the date of this policy we do not load a third-party analytics or advertising tag. Accepting a category records permission for that purpose. A tag in that category runs only after you have opted in. If we add a new purpose, we will ask again. Details of each category, and how to change your mind, are in the cookie policy.

If your browser sends Global Privacy Control, we treat that as an opt-out of sale, sharing and targeted ads.

Who we share it with

We share personal data only with:

• The provider that hosts this website, so the pages can be served and protected.
• The service that delivers a form message to us, when online submission is switched on.
• Analytics or advertising partners, only for a category you have accepted, and only when that tool is in use.
• Professional advisers, or a court, regulator or authority, when we need to or the law requires it.
• A buyer of the business, if that happens, and only under a duty to protect the data.

We do not allow those parties to use enquiry or application data for their own advertising.

International transfers

We handle personal data in India. If you contact us from another country, your data is transferred to India. Where your law restricts that transfer, we put the safeguard that law requires in place before we rely on the transfer, or we do not carry it out. Our data policies describe the rights that travel with you.

How long we keep it

• Enquiries: up to 24 months, or longer if they become a client matter that we must keep for the contract or for a legal claim.
• Applications: up to 12 months after we last consider you, unless we engage you or you ask us to delete them sooner.
• The record of your cookie choice: up to 12 months, or until you change it.
• Security logs: up to 90 days, unless we need them for an incident.

When the period ends, we delete the data or anonymise it.

Your rights

Wherever you are, you can ask us for a copy of the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, ask us to delete it, and withdraw consent. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that already happened, and it does not stop us replying to a message you have already sent if we still need to.

Extra rights apply in some countries, including the right to object, to restrict processing, to data portability, to opt out of sale or sharing, and to nominate another person. Those rights are listed by region on the data policies page. We will not discriminate against you for using them.

To use a right, email us using the contact below. If a law gives you the right to complain to a regulator, you can do that as well as writing to us.

Security

We limit access to people who need the data for the purpose we collected it, and we use a reputable host. No website transmission is completely secure. Avoid sending passport copies, medical files or other sensitive documents unless we have asked for them for a role.

Changes to this policy

We will post any update on this page and change the date above. If a change needs new consent, including a new cookie purpose, we will ask you again.
