Producing investigative journalism on the Canary Islands’ blue economy, the logistics sector, and with an international perspective requires continuous investment. At Canarymaritime, we finance our operations through a balanced combination of subscriptions and high-quality advertising.
As a leading platform for the Canary Islands’ maritime and port sector, we understand that our success depends on the trust of our readers. For this reason, we always prioritize their experience over commercial interests. This charter sets out our commitments regarding trust, privacy, and seamless navigation across all devices.
1. Trust and Independence
Credibility is the anchor of our relationship with the port community.
Editorial Independence: Our journalism is, and will always remain, independent. Editorial lines covering the blue economy and the Canary Islands’ economy are free from commercial influence.
Sponsored Content (“Supported by”): When a report or special coverage is funded by a commercial partner (e.g., a port authority or a shipping company), it will be labeled as “Supported by.” In such cases, while the partner may suggest the general topic, they have no influence over the final outcome and no prior access to the content before publication.
Branded Content (“Partner Content”): We allow selected brands to publish commercial content. This content is not produced by our newsroom and is always clearly identified so that readers understand it is corporate information.
2. Professional Data Privacy
Canarymaritime is committed to ensuring that the use of personal data is secure, controlled, and transparent.
Security: We store and transfer personal data under the strictest security standards and in full compliance with applicable laws.
No Data Sharing: Your individual data will never be shared with advertisers or third parties without your explicit consent.
Ethical Advertising: We do not track our readers across other websites using personally identifiable data. Our cookies are used solely to deliver relevant advertising based on professional interests within our own platform.
Advertiser Restrictions: Our advertising terms strictly prohibit advertisers from using cookies to create user profiles; they may only measure the performance of their campaigns.
3. User Experience (UX)
We are committed to ensuring that advertising never becomes an obstacle to accessing technical and up-to-date information.
Reading Comes First: The reader’s experience always takes precedence over advertising revenue. We continuously work to make Canarymaritime the fastest and most efficient platform in its sector.
Non-Intrusive Advertising: You will never encounter ads that cover text, disruptive pop-ups, or animations that shift content while you are reading a technical article.
Respectful Environment: We do not allow ads with automatic sound or videos that play without user initiation. Noise and aggressive animations are strictly prohibited on our platforms.
Right of Veto: Canarymaritime’s management reserves the right to veto any advertising deemed inappropriate or detrimental to the visual and professional integrity of the portal.
At Canarymaritime, we work to ensure that every click is productive for your business and respectful of your time.
