Personal Information We Collect
Information collected automatically
When you visit our website, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies installed on your device. We also collect information about the pages you view, what websites or search terms referred you to us, and how you interact with the site.
Information you provide to us
We may also collect personal data you provide voluntarily, such as your name, email address, telephone number, business name, and any other information you share when contacting us, signing up for our newsletter, or engaging our services.
Why We Process Your Data
Our priority is data security. We process only minimal user data — only as much as is necessary to maintain the website and provide our services. Device information collected automatically is used to identify potential abuse and gather statistical information about website usage. This data is not aggregated in a way that identifies any individual user.
You can visit our website without revealing any personally identifiable information. However, if you wish to use certain features, receive our newsletter, or contact us, you may need to provide personal data.
Legal Basis for Processing
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we process your personal data on the following legal bases:
Contract: Where processing is necessary to fulfil a contract with you, or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
Legitimate interests: Where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as maintaining website security and improving our services.
Consent: Where you have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for a specific purpose, such as receiving our newsletter.
Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected. Our retention periods are:
Device information and website analytics: 26 months from collection
Newsletter and marketing data: Until you unsubscribe, plus 30 days
Enquiry and correspondence data (no contract): 2 years from last contact
Client contract and service data: 7 years after the contract ends

The right to be informed — to know how your data is being used
The right of access — to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
The right to rectification — to have inaccurate data corrected
The right to erasure — to request deletion of your data in certain circumstances
The right to restrict processing — to limit how we use your data

Information for US Residents
If you are a resident of the United States, this section provides additional information relevant to you.
As an EU-based business, we process your personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This means you benefit from strong privacy protections, which generally meet or exceed US state privacy law requirements.
While we do not currently meet the thresholds requiring compliance with laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), we are committed to treating all clients' data with the same high standard of care.
We:
Do not sell your personal information to third parties
Do not share your personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising
Will respond to requests regarding access, correction, or deletion of your data, regardless of which state you reside in
If you have questions about your privacy rights, please contact us at [email protected].
International Data Transfers
Your information may be transferred outside of the European Economic Area (EEA), including to the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States, where our service providers may be located. Where we transfer data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with GDPR requirements.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies to enhance your browsing experience. For detailed information, please see our separate Cookie Policy.
Links to Other Websites
Our website may contain links to other websites not owned or controlled by us. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to read the privacy statements of each website that may collect personal information.
Information Security
We secure your information on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorised access, use, or disclosure. We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards. However, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
Legal Disclosure
We will disclose information we collect if required or permitted by law, such as to comply with a court order, and when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.
Complaints
If you have concerns about our use of your personal data, please contact us first so we can try to resolve them. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Dutch supervisory authority, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens (AP), at autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl or by calling +31 (0)70 888 8500.
