If you subscribe to our newsletter or inspirational emails, we use your email address to send these messages. You can unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included at the bottom of each email.

Special categories of personal data and children’s data

Our website and services are not intended to collect special categories of personal data unless this is necessary and you knowingly provide this information to us.

Our website is not intended for children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal data. If you believe that we have collected a child’s personal data without the appropriate consent, please contact us at hallo@jaapbressers.nl. Where appropriate, we will delete this information.

How long do we retain personal data?

We do not retain personal data for longer than necessary. In principle, we use the following retention periods:

Processing outside the European Economic Area

Some external service providers may process personal data outside the European Economic Area, for example in the United States.

Where required, we use appropriate safeguards, such as an applicable adequacy decision, a recognised data-transfer framework or standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.

Automated decision-making

We do not make decisions that have significant legal or similar consequences for you based solely on automated processing.

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, unauthorised access and unwanted disclosure.

If you believe that your information is not adequately protected or suspect that it is being misused, please contact us at hallo@jaapbressers.nl.
