The mark in the footer is a certificate, not a decoration. Nullware Project checked DeckVakt against their Standard and scans this site every week. The picture lives on our server. Clicking it leaves this site and opens the record they keep.
The orbit is the mark. The sentence is the promise. The date is when the certificate runs out. “Check” means the whole thing is a link, and the link is not to us. The words and the date are Nullware’s. We do not redraw them.
What the badge means
01
The mark
The dot in the middle is the person. What they share stays in the ring, with the business they chose. On DeckVakt that is literal: the passage file does not leave the phone. The picture of the mark is a file on deckvakt.com. It does not call nullwareproject.org, so Nullware does not see who looked at this page.
02
The promise
“Customers not for sale” means names, email addresses, phone numbers and browsing do not go to advertising companies or data brokers. Not as a pixel, not as an upload, not scrambled, and not because someone clicked Accept. For a crew, the thing that would be for sale is the list of people on the boat. We never receive that list.
03
The date
Certified 21 September 2026. Valid to 21 September 2027, against Nullware Standard 2.2.3.1. A certificate lasts twelve months. They review again every year and scan the site every week. Past the date it lapses on its own, and we take the badge down. Last clean scan recorded: 21 September 2026.
04
The check
The whole badge is one link. It opens nullwareproject.org/register/deckvakt/. That page is theirs. Read the address bar. If a picture like this opens deckvakt.com, or any other site, it is not their badge.
What the certificate covers
Only the surfaces named on the record. Partner means this record follows the Standard closely. It is the same promise, not a bigger one.

Where a passage goes
There is no DeckVakt account for the boat. The same list is on the public record and in the privacy policy, both dated 21 September 2026.
What
What happens to it
Where
Passage file
Crew, rota, log, standing orders, boat, waypoints. It does not leave the device. The skipper controls that file. DeckVakt does not receive it.
On device
Saloon share
Join codes, QR, Bluetooth or local Wi-Fi. A handoff between phones, not an upload.
Local
Waitlist
The email address and message you send, relayed by Web3Forms to our inbox. No DeckVakt database of addresses. One notice when the app is ready. No newsletter.
US
This website
The host keeps connection logs: IP address, time, URL. Umami counts page views on marketing pages only: referrer, country, browser. No cookies, no profiles, no advertising. It honours Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track. The desk and the apps do not use it.
EU host · US stats
Faults
Sentry, EU region, on the website and the desk. Names, boats, ports and share codes are stripped before anything is sent. The mobile apps do not send crash reports.
EU
Apple and Google
The app stores, an optional one-time contribution, and Apple place lookup if you use it. A contribution tells them that it completed, not the card number. A coordinate is sent only if you look a place up. Location is not used for advertising.
US
The five lines we signed
Signed 21 September 2026. Each line is theirs. The sentence under it is what that line means on this boat.
P-1
Your price never depends on your profile.
On this boatThe app is free. An optional contribution after a real passage does not unlock anything, and it is the same ask for everyone. We do not look at who you are and change the price.
P-2
Leaving takes two steps, online.
On this boatDelete the passage, or uninstall. There is no account to close and no phone call. A waitlist address goes when you ask, or after the launch notice.
P-3
We keep only what we need, on a published schedule.
On this boatWe cannot restore a passage, because we never had it. Host logs age out. Error reports go when the fault is understood. The schedule is the one on the record.
P-4
Apps and inboxes count too.
On this boatThe promise is not only the marketing site. It covers the desk and the iPhone and Android apps. Mail we send is the launch notice you asked for, not a drip.
P-5
If someone gets into your data, you hear within 72 hours.
On this boatThat is a pledge about notice, not a claim that a break-in is impossible. Nothing like that is on the record for the past 24 months.
What it does not say
The watches
Whether the rota is fair, the alarm gets through a locker, or the log is any good. That is a different claim, and this badge does not make it.
Other products
Only DeckVakt, deckvakt.com, the desk and the two apps. A different site with a similar name is not covered.
A lawyer’s stamp
It is a voluntary standard. On this one point it asks for more than the law does. It is not a legal opinion.
If it doesn’t open nullwareproject.org, it isn’t their badge
It has to be a link. A picture that does nothing proves nothing.
The address bar has to read nullwareproject.org/register/deckvakt/.
The record has to name DeckVakt, status Certified, and a date that has not passed.
