4. Sharing your personal data

Unless otherwise stated in this privacy statement, we do not describe, sell or trade any personal data about our visitors and users to third parties.

4.1 Sharing with processors

We may ask others to assist with the provision of the Service. Such third parties may process your personal data. These third parties are referred to as “Processor” in this privacy statement. We conclude processing agreements with these processors.

We use the following types of Processors:

  • developers and suppliers of software;

  • storage of (personal) data and database management and maintenance;

  • research agencies and analytical software to improve our services and website (including privacy-friendly Google Analytics settings to prevent sharing personal data with Google);

  • ticket managers for customer support;

  • managers of evaluation forms;

  • hosting provider(s);

  • providers of relationship-management software.

In some cases, the Processor may collect your personal data on our behalf. We inform the Processors that they may only use personal data obtained from us to enable the provision of the Service. Processors may not use this information for advertisements.

We bear no responsibility if you provide additional information to these processors by yourself. It will be useful to be properly advised about the Processor and his company before you provide your personal data.

4.2 Sharing with your permission

We may moreover share personal data with others if you give us permission to do so. For example, we can work with other parties to offer you specific services or offers. If you register for these services or marketing offers, we may provide your name or contact details if necessary for providing such service or for contacting you.

4.3 Our legal responsibility

We may furthermore share personal data with third parties if this is:

  1. reasonably necessary or appropriate to fulfil legal obligations;

  2. is necessary to fulfil legal requests from authorities;

  3. is required to respond to any claims;

  4. is necessary to protect our rights, property or safety as well as that of our users, our employees or the public;

  5. is necessary to protect ourselves or our users against fraudulent, abusive, inappropriate or unlawful use of the Service.

We will immediately inform you if a government agency makes a request that relates to your personal data, unless we are not allowed to do so pursuant to the law.

4.4 Merger or sale of (part of) the company

Your personal data may be disclosed, shared or transferred in case we transfer part of our business. Examples include (negotiations about) a merger, sale of parts of the company or in order to obtain financing. We will obviously try to limit the impact for you as much as possible by transferring personal data only if necessary.

5. Protection of personal data

We believe it is important to treat your personal details with due care and to protect them. We have therefore taken appropriate technical and organisational security measures for the protection of your personal data. We have at any rate taken the following measures:

  • We have implemented physical and electronic measures designed to prevent unauthorised access, loss or misuse of personal data as much as possible.

  • We use SSL/TLS (Secure Socket Layer/Transport Layer Security) technology where necessary to encrypt transmission of sensitive information or personal data to us, such as account passwords and other payment-related identifiable information.

  • Two-step authentication is used where reasonably possible in order to prevent unauthorised access to personal data to the greatest extent.

  • Where reasonably possible, backups of personal data are made.

  • Sensitive information is stored encrypted wherever possible.

  • Vulnerabilities in the software are dealt with as quickly as reasonably possible.

We would like to point out that absolute security for the transmission of personal data via the internet or the storage of personal data cannot at all times be guaranteed.

Our Services may contain links to other websites and services. In addition, our Service may moreover be provided with third-party advertisements. Third-party websites and services may keep information about you. We have no control of these sites or their activities. We have no involvement if you provide your personal data to third parties. In that case, the privacy policy of such third party applies. We bear no responsibility with regard to the content of the privacy policy of such parties and the way in which these parties deal with personal data. We encourage you to review their privacy and security practices and policies before you provide personal information to them.

7. Your rights

Privacy legislation gives you certain rights in respect of your personal data. The rights described below are not absolute rights. We will always weigh up the interests in respect of whether we can reasonably fulfil your request. If that is not possible, or if it would infringe on the privacy of others for example, then we can refuse your request. If we refuse a request, we will justify our decision.

Right to view

You are entitled to ask us what personal data we process. You can also ask us to give you an insight into the processing purposes, relevant categories of personal data, the (categories of) receivers of personal data, the period of retention, the source of the data and whether or not we use automated decision making.

You may also request a copy of your personal data processed that we process. If you would like additional copies, we can charge you a reasonable sum for this.

Right to rectification

If your personal data which we process is incorrect or incomplete, you can ask us to amend or supplement your personal data.

If we agree to your request, we will inform the parties to whom we provide data about it insofar as that is reasonably possible.

Right to deletion of data

If you no longer want us to process specific elements of your personal data, you can ask us to delete some (or all) of your personal data. Whether or not we will delete the data depends on the purpose of processing. We only delete data we process on the basis of statutory obligations or to fulfil the agreement if the personal data is no longer required. If we process data on the basis of justified interests, we only delete data if your interests outweigh ours. We will make this judgement. If we process this data on the basis of consent, then we will only delete the data if you withdraw your consent. If we have accidentally processed your data unlawfully, or a specific law stipulates that we must delete data, then we will delete the data. If the data is necessary for the administration of legal proceedings or (a legal) dispute, then we will only delete the personal data once the procedure or dispute has been dealt with.

If we agree to your request, we will inform the parties to whom we provide data about it insofar as that is reasonably possible.

Limitation of processing

If you dispute the accuracy of personal data processed by us, if you believe we have processed your personal data unlawfully, if we no longer require the data, or if you have objected to the processing, you can also ask us to limit the processing of that personal data. For example, for the period of time we need to assess your disputation or objection, or if it is already clear that there is no (longer a) legal basis on which to process that personal data, but it is in your interests for us not to delete your data yet. If we limit the processing of your personal data on your request, we can still use that data for the administration of legal proceedings or a (legal) dispute.

Right to transfer

On your request, we can transfer the data we process to fulfil the agreement, or on the basis of your consent, and which is automatically processed, to you or another party nominated by you. You can submit such a request at reasonable intervals.

Automated individual decision making

We do not make an decisions based exclusively on automated processing.

Right to object and withdrawal of consent

If we process your data based on a justified interest, you may object to this processing. If we process data with your consent you may withdraw that consent. Please refer to the relevant processing purposes above for more information.

Exercising your rights

You can send a request to view, correct, delete, or transfer your personal data, or the withdrawal of your consent, or your objection to the processing of your personal data to [email protected].

To prevent misuse, we require sufficient identification when you submit a written request to view, amend, or delete your data. You can do this by sending a copy of valid proof of identification with your request. Do not forget to redact your citizen service number and photo on the document.

We aim to process your request, complaint, or objection within a month. If it is not possible to make a decision within a month, we will inform you of the reasons for the delay and of the timeframe within which we expect to inform you of our decision (no longer than 3 months after receipt).

Data Protection Authority

Please contact us if you have a complaint about our processing of your personal data. We would be happy to assist you. If we are unable to achieve a resolution together, you are entitled to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority, the Data Protection Authority, in accordance with privacy legislation. You can contact the Data Protection Authority via https://autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/.
