Guidelines for Accessing Reports
At BR Report – Boats Registry, we are committed to protecting the privacy and security of personal information associated with boat ownership and vessel records.

Our approach is designed to support:
- The confidentiality of sensitive vessel and ownership information
- The protection of personal information associated with boat ownership
- Responsible access to available vessel records
- Compliance with applicable privacy laws and data-source requirements
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. For questions or assistance, please contact us at:

3. Do Not Track and Privacy Preferences
Some browsers offer a Do Not Track (DNT) setting or other privacy signals. Because there is no universally adopted standard for responding to every DNT signal, our handling of these signals may depend on applicable law and the technologies used by our website.
Where legally required, we will honor applicable privacy preference signals, including recognized opt-out preference signals.
You may contact us for additional information about available privacy choices.

Refund eligibility, processing, and dispute resolution are subject to the applicable purchase terms and governing law. Nothing in this policy is intended to waive any consumer rights or dispute rights that cannot legally be waived.

However, no method of electronic transmission or data storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services, maintain relevant business and transaction records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet applicable legal obligations. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected.

Our Service is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13.
If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 in circumstances where parental consent is required, we will take appropriate steps to delete the information.
