Cookie Policy

1. Who we are

We are Interocean Marine Services Limited (“Interocean”), an integrated asset solutions partner to the offshore energy and maritime sectors. We are the controller of any personal data collected through cookies on this website for the purposes of the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Notice, which explains more broadly how we collect and use personal data.

2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your computer or device. Some are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies); others remain until they expire or you clear them (persistent cookies), which can be anything from a day to two years.

Cookies set by this website are first-party cookies. Third-party cookies are set by other organisations whose services we use on the site. Like many websites, we use a small number of both to make the site work and to understand how it is used.

3. Essential cookies

These are needed for the website to work and cannot be switched off. They remember the choice you make in our cookie notice, keep your visit secure and let the site load correctly. They do not identify you and are not used for marketing.

4. Analytics cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website: which pages are visited, how people arrive, and where they have difficulty. This helps us improve the site. The data is collected in aggregate; we do not use it to identify you, and we do not collect information about age, gender, political or religious beliefs or nationality through cookies.

Analytics cookies are set only if you accept them in the cookie notice. If you decline, or make no choice, Google Analytics runs without cookies and receives only anonymous, non-persistent signals. Google’s own use of the data is described in its privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.

5. Marketing cookies

This website does not set marketing or advertising cookies, and does not load social media or advertising pixels. If that changes, this policy will be updated and you will be asked for your consent before any such cookie is set.

6. What we will not do

7. Other services on this site

The interactive maps on our homepage and contact page are provided by Mapbox. Loading a map sends your browser’s request, including its IP address, to Mapbox’s servers in order to deliver the map tiles; Mapbox does not set cookies on this site. Our website is hosted by Vercel, whose servers similarly receive the technical data needed to serve each page. Both are described in our Privacy Notice under disclosures and international transfers.

8. Your rights

Information collected through cookies can be personal data, and the rights described in our Privacy Notice apply to it: access, correction, erasure, restriction, objection, portability, withdrawal of consent, and the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office. To exercise any of them, contact us at info@interocean.com.

9. Managing your preferences

You can change your choice about analytics cookies at any time using the button below, which shows the cookie notice again. Declining will not affect your use of the website.

You can also control cookies through your web browser, including deleting cookies already set and blocking new ones. If you block essential cookies, some parts of the website may not work as intended. Your browser’s help pages explain how: search for “cookies” in the help for Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge.
