Ettemadis BV attaches great importance to your privacy. We only process data that is necessary for the improvement of our services, and we handle the information collected about you and your use of our services with care. Your data will never be shared with third parties for commercial purposes.

This privacy policy applies to the use of the website and the services offered by Ettemadis BV. The effective date of these terms is 11/01/2021; with the publication of a new version, all previous versions become invalid. This privacy policy describes which information we collect, how it is used, and under which conditions it may be shared with third parties. We also explain how your data is stored and protected, and which rights you have regarding the personal data you share with us.

If you have any questions about our privacy policy, please contact our data protection representative. Contact details can be found at the end of this document.

Data processing

Below we explain how we process your data, where it is stored, which security techniques we use, and who has access to it.

Newsletters

We send our email newsletters via MailChimp. MailChimp will never use your name or email address for its own purposes. Each email we send includes an unsubscribe link at the bottom — if you click this, you will no longer receive our newsletter. Your personal data is securely stored by MailChimp, which uses cookies and other internet technologies to determine whether emails are opened and read. MailChimp reserves the right to use this data to improve its services and may share information within this context with third parties.

Google Gmail

We use Google Gmail for our regular business email communication. Google has implemented suitable technical and organisational measures to prevent misuse, loss, and corruption of data. Gmail has no access to our inbox, and we treat all email communication confidentially.

Purpose of data processing

We use your personal data exclusively to provide our services. The purpose of processing is always directly related to the assignment you have given us. We do not use your data for targeted marketing. If we wish to contact you for any purpose other than the one for which you initially provided your data, we will ask for your explicit consent. Your data will only be shared with third parties when necessary for administrative or accounting purposes.

Purposes include:

  • Sending newsletters or promotional materials.
  • Contacting you by email or phone regarding our services or changes in products.
  • Sending products to you by post.
  • Analysing website behaviour to improve user experience and tailor our offer to your preferences.
  • Processing data when required by law, such as for tax purposes.

Complaints

If you have a complaint about the way Ettemadis BV uses your personal data, you have the right to file a complaint via info@ettemadis.com. Please include your name and phone number.

Automatically collected data

Data automatically collected by our website (such as your IP address, web browser, and operating system) is used to further improve our services. This information does not contain personal data.

Cooperation in tax or criminal Investigations

In certain cases, Ettemadis BV may be legally required to share data in connection with tax or criminal investigations by government authorities. In such cases, we are obliged to share your data but will do so only within the limits permitted by law.

Retention periods

We retain your data as long as you are a client. This means we maintain your client profile until you indicate that you no longer wish to use our services. If you make such a request, we treat it as a request for erasure. Due to legal and administrative obligations, we must retain invoices containing personal data for as long as legally required. However, our staff will no longer have access to your client profile or documents once your relationship with us ends.

Your rights

Under Dutch and European law, you have certain rights concerning the personal data processed by or on behalf of us. Below we explain what these rights are and how you can exercise them. To prevent misuse, we send copies of your data only to your registered email address. If you wish to receive the data at another address or by post, we may ask for identification. We maintain a record of all handled requests. You will receive all data in a machine-readable format. You also have the right to file a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens) if you believe we misuse your personal data.

Right of access

You have the right to access the data we process about you. Submit a request to our data protection representative, and you will receive a response within 30 days.

Right to rectification

You have the right to have inaccurate or incomplete personal data corrected.

Right to restriction of processing

You may request a temporary restriction on the processing of your data.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have your personal data transferred to another party.

Right to object and other rights

You may object to the processing of your personal data. Upon receiving your objection, we will cease processing until it has been resolved. If your objection is upheld, we will permanently stop processing your data.

We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling.

Changes to this privacy policy

We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy at any time. The most recent version will always be available on this page. If a new version affects how we process data already collected from you, we will notify you by email.
