For what purposes is my personal data used?

We use your data exclusively for the following purposes:

  • Sending products
  • Inviting to events
  • Sending a newsletter

On what basis is this processing based?

We process your personal data based on the consent you have given (for example, if you give us permission to send invitations for events or newsletters), the performance of the agreement (for example, processing and sending a product or service you ordered on our website), a legal obligation that may apply to us, or based on a legitimate interest (for example, to improve our website). For the latter basis, we not only carefully consider what that interest is but also weigh it against the privacy interests of the individuals involved.

If you have given consent for the processing of your personal data, you can withdraw this consent at any time by sending us an email (see the contact information on our website). Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing up to the moment of withdrawal.

Are my personal data shared with third parties?

We share your personal data only with other parties if this is necessary for the execution of our activities. This includes software providers or parties that manage our website and store the data.

If we engage third parties, we make the necessary written agreements with them regarding the processing and security of your personal data.

Are my personal data transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area?

We strive to process your personal data only within the European Economic Area (EEA) and to store your data as much as possible on a server within the EEA. Sometimes this is not possible. In such cases, we take the necessary organizational, technical, and contractual measures to provide an appropriate level of protection for your personal data.

How is my personal data protected?

We take organizational and technical measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, loss, and any form of unlawful processing. We periodically assess whether the existing measures are still adequate or if additional or different measures are necessary.

What are my privacy rights?

Based on the GDPR, you have the right to access the personal data we collect and to correct personal data that contains factual inaccuracies.
