How does Serenco Nederland BV handle your personal data? Carefully, safely and confidentially. That is how we handle your personal data. Serenco Nederland BV has drawn up a policy document for the purpose.


Supervision of the processing of personal data The rules for processing your personal data have been laid down in the Personal Data Protection Act; since 25 May 2018 this concerns the General Data Protection Regulation. The Personal Data Authority (AP) supervises observance of this act.


If you believe that the provisions from this Privacy Statement are not or insufficiently observed by us, you are entitled to submit a complaint to the AP. The contact information of the AP is Bezuidenhoutseweg 30 2594 AV The Hague 0900-2001201


Safe To safeguard your privacy and the confidentiality of your data, Serenco Nederland BV takes the appropriate technical and organizational measures. We take safety measures to prevent abuse of and unauthorized access to personal data.


Apart from protecting the systems we do not want everyone within Serenco Nederland BV to have access to your data. The systems in which customer data are stored, are therefore only accessible to a select group of employees for whom it is necessary for the performance of their work that they have access.


Reporting incidents If unexpectedly it should appear that something did not go well with the protection of your personal data or we suspect that this may be the case, we shall report this to the AP. If the infringement of your personal data may possibly have unfavourable or detrimental consequences for you, we shall let you know this as soon as possible.


Confidential We presume that your data are always of a confidential nature. Every employee of Serenco Nederland BV is therefore obliged to observe secrecy. This also applies to third parties who have been hired by Serenco Nederland BV or otherwise appointed to perform work. Persons who are entrusted with performing technical work on our systems are also obliged to observe secrecy. In short everyone who has access to your data is charged with an obligation of secrecy.


How long do we keep your data? Serenco Nederland BV does not keep your data longer than necessary for the purposes for which your data are processed and longer than is permitted by law. How long certain data are kept depends on the nature of the data and the purposes for which they are processed. The periods of storage may therefore differ according to purpose.


Supplying to third parties We explicitly do not supply your personal data to third parties, unless that is necessary within the framework of the performance of the agreement, if this is required by law or if you have given us permission to do so.


Serenco Nederland BV may also be obliged to supply personal data on the basis of legislation or regulations, on the basis of a judgment of a competent court, or in the event of fraud or abuse. If that is the case, Serenco Nederland BV will render its cooperation.


Forwarding your data to countries outside the European Union Serenco Nederland BV will not forward your data to a business or establishment in a country outside the European Union, unless a model agreement has been concluded for the purpose or when you have signed a statement in which you give permission for the forwarding.

What are your rights? When Serenco Nederland BV processes your personal data, you have certain rights according to current regulations. Your rights will be explained below.


We shall inform you if we process personal data of yours Before processing your data Serenco Nederland BV will supply information to you concerning our identity, about the purposes for which and the manner in which we process your data, about the rules that apply thereto, about the rights that you have and how you may influence that.


This supply of information may be omitted if you are already aware of the processing of your data or if the communication to you is impossible or requires a disproportionate effort from us.


Inspection of your data Are you a customer of Serenco Nederland BV and do you want to see which personal data are known to us? Then you may exercise your "Right of Inspection". We do request you to indicate specifically which personal data you should like to receive.


Right to rectification You are entitled to rectify your data if your data are incorrect or incomplete. You are also entitled to rectify the data if the data are not relevant to the purpose for which we process them, or if your data have been processed by us contrary to a statutory regulation.


We shall communicate any rectification to the third party/parties that has/have received your data from us, unless this is impossible or requires a disproportionate effort from us.


Right to removal of data In addition you are entitled to have particular data removed. For instance when your data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which we received them, you object to the processing or if your data have been processed wrongfully by us. We cannot, however, always remove all data requested because we are (possibly) obliged to keep some of your data.


Right to limitation of the processing You are also entitled to limitation of the processing of your data. The right to limitation means that we must not process and must not alter your personal data (temporarily). This happens if you contest the correctness of the data, if you believe that the personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes or if you believe that the processing of your personal data by Serenco Nederland BV is wrongful.


Right of objection You may object to processing of your personal data by Serenco Nederland BV if your personal data are used for other purposes than necessary for the performance of an agreement or necessary for the fulfilment of a statutory obligation. For instance if you do not want us to use your personal data to make personal offers to you.


Right to data portability If you have supplied your personal data to us yourself, you will be entitled to data transferability in certain cases. This entails that we shall supply your data to you in a structured, current and machine-legible manner, when you ask us to do so.


How can you exercise your rights? If you want to exercise your rights, you may always contact us via the contact information below or by sending a letter to us, provided with your name, address and telephone number. A stamp is not necessary. We shall react to your request within one month.


We shall ask you to prove your identity, on the basis of a valid proof of identity. In that way we can check whether we are supplying the personal data to the right person. Extravagant requests in connection with the supply of information may be rejected by us. It will be a question of extravagant requests if for instance you approach us with requests for information more frequently than on average and necessary.
