ITIC circular: BIMCO GDPR clauses

Following a number of recent enquiries regarding GDPR (the General Data Protection Regulation) ITIC would like to remind our ship management members that BIMCO has drafted the following GDPR clauses: 

Personal Data Protection Clause for CREWMAN A and B 2009
Personal Data Protection Clause for GUARDCON
Personal Data Protection Clause for SHIPMAN 2009
Personal Data Protection Clause for SUPPLYTIME 2017

ITIC's legal advisor, Mark Brattman, was part of the drafting committee.

BIMCO personal data protection clause for SHIPMAN 2009:

For the purposes of this Clause:

“Data Subject” means any identified or identifiable natural person, including Crew.
