Clear rules before we work together.

Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions govern the use of the Superyacht Engineers Filipino page and the booking, purchase or use of services offered by Riccardo Peirano / Superyacht Engineers, including where applicable Yacht Training Hub, Blue Life, Yacht Interior Setup collaborations, Natalia Navarro when participating in a service, and related professional initiatives.

1. Definitions

“Provider” means Riccardo Peirano / Superyacht Engineers and, where applicable, related initiatives such as Yacht Training Hub, Blue Life, Yacht Interior Setup collaborations and any authorised collaborator participating in a service.

“Client” means any person, crew member, applicant, student, yacht professional, company representative, yacht representative or other participant booking, purchasing, attending or using a service.

“Services” means mentoring, coaching-style guidance, training guidance, career orientation, consulting, advisory, CV discussion, interview preparation, yacht industry orientation, course access, downloadable material and related professional support.

2. Purpose of the Filipino page

The Filipino page is created as a respectful and practical starting point for Filipino professionals who work in yachting or who want to understand how to build a serious career in the superyacht industry.

It does not promise employment, placement, sponsorship, visa support or direct recruitment. Its purpose is to provide clearer information, better preparation, training direction and professional guidance.

3. Scope of Services

Services may include professional guidance based on experience in the naval, superyacht, onboard, refit, operational, training and leadership environment. The exact scope depends on the service booked, the information provided by the Client and any written description available at the time of booking.

Unless expressly agreed in writing, services are advisory and educational in nature. They are not a substitute for formal legal advice, employment agency services, recruitment representation, immigration advice, medical advice, psychological treatment, flag-state advice, class approval, financial advice or tax advice.

4. Training language

Filipino / Tagalog wording may be used on this page to make the message more familiar and easier to understand. However, Yacht Training Hub courses and most professional materials are provided in English because English is the real working language onboard yachts.

The Client understands that improving professional English may be part of their development path in the yacht industry.

5. Booking and Acceptance

By booking a session, submitting a form, purchasing a service, accepting a calendar invitation, attending a session or using any material provided by the Provider, the Client confirms that they have read, understood and accepted these Terms and Conditions.

The Provider may refuse, reschedule or cancel a booking where the request is outside the Provider’s scope, involves inappropriate conduct, creates a conflict of interest, presents legal or ethical concerns, or requires expertise that should be handled by another qualified professional.

6. Payments

Prices, payment methods and payment terms are those shown at the time of booking or agreed in writing. Unless otherwise stated, payment is required before the service is delivered.

The Client is responsible for ensuring that payment information is accurate and that any applicable taxes, bank fees, currency conversion costs or payment platform charges are covered where relevant.

7. Cancellations and Rescheduling

The Client should give reasonable notice if they need to cancel or reschedule a session. Where a booking system, calendar system or payment platform specifies cancellation rules, those rules apply.

If the Client does not attend a scheduled session without notice, the session may be considered delivered and may not be refundable.

The Provider may reschedule a session due to illness, technical problems, operational commitments, force majeure, emergency, safety concerns or other reasonable circumstances. In that case, the Provider will make reasonable efforts to offer an alternative time.

8. Refunds

Refunds are assessed according to the type of service, the timing of the cancellation, whether work has already started, whether digital material has been accessed, and any terms stated at the point of purchase.

No refund is normally due for completed sessions, missed sessions without reasonable notice, downloaded digital materials, delivered customised work, or services already substantially performed.

9. Client Responsibility

The Client agrees to provide accurate, complete and relevant information. The Client remains responsible for their own decisions, actions, communications, employment choices, training choices, applications, interviews, contracts and professional outcomes.

The Client must not share information that they are not authorised to disclose, including confidential information belonging to an employer, yacht, owner, manager, shipyard, client, crew member, guest or third party.

10. No recruitment guarantee

The Provider does not guarantee yacht placement, employment, interviews, job offers, contract approval, salary level, promotion, visa approval, travel documentation, certification approval or acceptance by any yacht, captain, manager, owner, agency or company.

Any career guidance, CV discussion or interview preparation is intended to improve clarity, preparation and professional positioning, not to guarantee a specific result.

11. Professional Guidance and Limitations

The Provider offers professional guidance based on experience, judgement and the information available at the time of the service. Guidance may be practical, strategic, operational, educational or reflective, but it is not a guarantee of any specific result.

The Client should obtain qualified professional advice where a matter involves legal rights, employment claims, immigration or visa issues, medical or psychological issues, formal safety certification, tax matters, financial planning, regulatory compliance or contractual obligations.

12. No Guarantee of Results

The Provider does not guarantee any job, yacht placement, contract, interview, certificate, visa, promotion, business result, technical result, operational result, psychological result, financial result or specific career outcome.

Results depend on many factors outside the Provider’s control, including the Client’s background, documents, experience, conduct, English level, preparation, market conditions, employer decisions, yacht requirements, regulatory requirements and third-party decisions.

13. Confidentiality

The Provider treats Client information with professional discretion. Where applicable, a separate Mutual Confidentiality Agreement may also apply to sessions, mentoring, consulting or training guidance.

The Client should review the applicable confidentiality terms before sharing sensitive personal, commercial, technical, employment, yacht-related or ownership-related information.

14. Recordings and AI Tools

Sessions may not be recorded, transcribed, photographed, filmed, streamed, published or shared without prior consent from all participants.

Automatic meeting transcription, screen recording, AI note-taking or third-party recording tools must not be used unless all participants have expressly agreed in advance.

15. Intellectual Property

All materials provided by the Provider, including documents, templates, frameworks, notes, course content, slides, checklists, videos, exercises, methods and recommendations, remain the intellectual property of the Provider or the relevant rights holder unless otherwise stated.

The Client may use provided materials for personal or internal professional use only. The Client may not resell, publish, copy, distribute, teach, reproduce, repackage or present such materials as their own without prior written permission.

16. Website Content

Website content is provided for general informational, educational and professional positioning purposes. It may be updated, changed or removed at any time without notice.

While reasonable care is taken, the Provider does not guarantee that all website content is complete, current, error-free or suitable for a specific individual, yacht, company, jurisdiction or regulatory situation.

17. Third-Party Links and Tools

The website may contain links to third-party platforms, booking tools, payment tools, video platforms, email systems, social networks, learning platforms or external websites.

The Provider is not responsible for the content, terms, privacy practices, availability, security or performance of third-party websites or tools.

18. Communication

The Client agrees that communications may take place by email, booking forms, video call platforms, messaging, calendar invitations or other reasonable professional channels.

The Client is responsible for providing correct contact details and checking messages, confirmations, reminders and links before the session.

19. Conduct

Both Parties agree to act professionally, respectfully and in good faith. The Provider may end or refuse a service if the Client behaves abusively, dishonestly, unlawfully, aggressively, inappropriately or in a way that creates risk or serious discomfort.

20. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Provider shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, reputational, operational, commercial, employment-related, immigration-related, financial or loss-of-opportunity damages arising from the use of the services or website.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability where such limitation is not permitted by applicable law.

21. Force Majeure

The Provider shall not be responsible for delay or failure to perform due to events outside reasonable control, including illness, technical failure, internet outage, platform failure, travel disruption, operational emergency, accident, natural event, war, strike, legal restriction or other force majeure event.

22. Personal Data

Personal data provided through booking, contact forms, email communication or session preparation will be processed for the purpose of managing enquiries, bookings, service delivery, reasonable business records and legal obligations.

For more information, the Client should review the applicable Privacy Policy available on the Superyacht Engineers website.

23. Changes to These Terms

The Provider may update these Terms and Conditions from time to time. The version available on the website at the time of booking or use will normally apply unless otherwise agreed in writing.

24. Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by the laws of Spain, unless mandatory applicable law requires otherwise.

25. Contact

For questions about these Terms and Conditions, the Client may contact Superyacht Engineers through the contact channels available on the website.
