HOW WE PROCESS DATA

  1. Wij zullen ons uiterste best doen om alleen de persoonsgegevens te verwerken die nodig zijn om de in deze Privacy Policy vermelde doeleinden te bereiken. Wij zullen uw persoonsgegevens op een wettelijke, eerlijke en transparante manier verwerken. Wij zullen ons uiterste best doen om de persoonsgegevens accuraat en up-to-date te houden.
  2. Uw persoonsgegevens worden alleen verwerkt zolang als nodig is om de in deze Privacy Policy vermelde doeleinden te bereiken of tot het moment waarop u uw toestemming voor de verwerking ervan intrekt. Hou er rekening mee dat de intrekking van de toestemming kan impliceren dat u niet langer in staat bent om de Website en/of Diensten geheel of gedeeltelijk te gebruiken. Als u zich bij onze Website heeft geregistreerd, zullen wij uw persoonsgegevens verwijderen als u uw profiel verwijdert, tenzij een wettelijke of reglementaire verplichting of een gerechtelijk of administratief bevel ons dat zou verhinderen.
  3. Wij zullen de gepaste technische en organisatorische maatregelen nemen om uw persoonsgegevens veilig te houden tegen ongeoorloofde toegang of diefstal en tegen onopzettelijk verlies, manipulatie of vernietiging. Toegang door ons personeel of personeel van onze externe verwerkers is alleen mogelijk op een need-to-know-basis en is onderworpen aan strikte geheimhoudingsverplichtingen. U begrijpt echter dat de zorg voor veiligheid en beveiliging slechts inspanningsverplichtingen naar beste vermogen zijn, die nooit kunnen worden gegarandeerd.
