Privacy
How we handle your details.
Last updated May 2026. Shipmate is built by Envision Labs DMCC, a company registered in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. This page covers how we handle the email addresses captains share on the waitlist form at shipmate.chat.
What we collect
Just your email address and which form you submitted it on (the hero form or the closing form on the landing page). We also log the timestamp and which language version of the page you were viewing. Nothing else. No names, no payment details, no boat names, no location data.
Why we collect it
One reason only: to email you once when Shipmate launches, so you can decide whether to sign up. The waitlist is not a subscription, not a newsletter, and not a marketing list. We won't email you about anything else.
Who we share it with
Nobody. We don't sell waitlist emails, we don't share them with marketing partners, we don't hand them to booking platforms. The email is stored on infrastructure operated by Supabase (database) and Vercel (web hosting), both of whom act as data processors under our instructions and have published privacy and security commitments.
Analytics
We use Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to understand how many people visit the landing page and how quickly it loads. Both are privacy-respecting: no cookies, no cross-site tracking, no personally identifying information. They tell us things like “500 visitors this week, 75% from mobile,” nothing about who you specifically are.
Cookies
We don't set tracking cookies. The site uses minimal functional storage (for things like remembering whether the waitlist form was submitted in your current session). No third-party advertising cookies.
Your rights
You can ask us to delete your email from the waitlist at any time. Just send a message to miles@shipmate.chat with the email address you want removed and we'll do it within seven days. If you're in the EU or UK, this is your right under GDPR. If you're in California, this is your right under CCPA. We honor it for everyone regardless of jurisdiction.
How long we keep it
Until Shipmate launches and we email you, plus six months after that to handle any reply or signup follow-up. If you haven't signed up by then, we delete the entry. If you ask us to delete it sooner, we do.
Changes to this policy
If anything material changes about how we handle waitlist data, we'll update this page and email everyone on the list before the change takes effect. For non-material changes (typo fixes, clarifications) we'll just update the date at the top.
