Privacy Policy
1 Who we are
We’re Lime Entertainment, a music agency which specializes in cruise ship entertainment. We’ve always put the privacy of our musicians’ and customers’ data at the heart of everything we do. We never sell or trade personal data or email lists with third parties. We hope you’ll have seen already that we’re striving to do everything in your best interest. Still, just in case you’re not sure, this Privacy Policy goes into a bit more detail about why, how and when we collect personal information. For queries, please use the contact details given at the end of this policy.
2 How we process data
Our business purpose is to provide you with cruise ship employment by introducing you to different cruise lines. The way we process your data is very simple: we only collect data from the application form you willingly fill out on our website, and it goes directly into our database. We don´t collect data from third parties. Once you are eligible for cruise ship employment, we share your information with the cruise lines, so they are able to offer you employment.

This list is not exhaustive and, in specific instances, we may need to collect additional data for the purposes set out in this Policy. Some of the above personal data is collected directly, for example, when you set up an account on our website, submit an enquiry, or send a message to our customer service team.
