We make an assessment of the business interests. All this data is stored securely and only for as long as it is actually relevant to the achievement of our activities.

Photos and video

Basis: legitimate interest

It is possible that we capture you on photographs as a visitor or passer-by in our projects, events or actions. Such photos may (sometimes) also be considered personal data. We use photographs and videos to communicate our activities to the public and to report to our partners and financiers. Pursuant to an assessment of interests, we may moreover opt for storing (and publishing) a photo that contains you.

Cookies<

Cookies are used on our websites; we can for example store information so that you do not need to enter it repeatedly, and they also help us to see that you are visiting us again. Basically, all our cookies are so-called “functional” or “analytical” cookies, but it is possible that other cookies are used (for example, by certain embedded videos) or that ‘tracking cookies’ are placed as well. You can manage your settings in our cookie wall.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to track how visitors use our online service. We have signed a processor agreement with Google. This contains strict provisions about what Google may keep track of. We do not allow Google to use the obtained Analytics information for other Google services and we have Google anonymise IP addresses.

Other parties

We will only provide your personal data to other companies or agencies if this is necessary for our business operations or if the law requires us to do so. An example is when we suspect fraud; in that case we may file a report with the police. Another example is that we engage an external party for our accounting purposes and for sending newsletters. Our contractors can also access personal data they need when performing their duties under an assignment. We have entered into a processor agreement with all other parties that handle your data.

Minors

We only process personal data of minors (persons below the age of 16) with written permission from parents, guardians or legal representatives.

Retention period
