Privacy Statement (UK)

Last updated: November 2026   |   Version 1.0

1. About this statement

This Privacy Statement applies to individuals located in the United Kingdom. It supplements our main Privacy Notice, which explains in full how Ardmore collects and uses personal data, including the data we collect, our purposes and lawful bases, who we share data with, how long we keep it and how we protect it.

Everything in the Privacy Notice applies to you, except where this statement says otherwise. When you read the Privacy Notice:

  • references to the "GDPR" mean the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018;

  • references to S.I. 336/2011 mean the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 ("PECR"); and

  • references to the Data Protection Commission mean the UK Information Commission (see section 7).

2. Applicable law

We process the personal data of individuals in the UK in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation ("UK GDPR"), the Data Protection Act 2018 and PECR, each as amended by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025.

3. Who is responsible for your data

The controller of personal data collected through www.ardmoreshipping.com and our social media pages is Ardmore Shipping Services (Ireland) Limited, a company registered in Ireland under company number 483972, whose registered office is at 1102 One Albert Quay, Cork, Ireland.

Ardmore does not have an establishment in the UK. We have not appointed a representative in the UK, as our processing of the personal data of individuals in the UK is occasional and unlikely to result in a risk to their rights and freedoms.

You can contact us about privacy at privacy@ardmoreshipping.com or by post at Privacy, Ardmore Shipping Services (Ireland) Limited, 1102 One Albert Quay, Cork, Ireland.

4. Marketing and news emails

We send news and marketing emails to individuals in the UK in accordance with PECR:

  • Individuals (including sole traders and partnerships): we only send emails if you have consented, or if you are an existing customer and we are telling you about similar services, and you were given the chance to opt out when we collected your details.

  • Employees of companies and other corporate bodies: we may send relevant business emails to your work email address without prior consent, but you can opt out at any time.

Every email we send identifies Ardmore and includes a simple way to unsubscribe.

5. Cookies

We ask for your consent before placing any non-essential cookies on your device, including analytics cookies, and you can accept or reject them through our cookie banner or change your choices at any time using the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of any page.
