What is personal data
Personal data are all data and information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
Example: an account or IBAN number is not personal data until the account number can be linked to a natural person by others. At that moment the account number is also personal data.
Company data are no personal data, unless you are an independent entrepreneur, run a one-man business or participate in another legal form without limited liability. In that case these data are also considered personal data.
What do we use personal data for
Execution of contracts and agreements
For the execution of contracts and agreements, it is necessary that we store contact details, details of employees and details of your company. We do this so we can communicate about the agreement we have with your company. We also use this personal data to be able to direct any proposals from our side to the right person.
Legal requirements
As a company, we have a number of legal obligations. First, we must comply with the General Data Protection Regulation. Secondly, we are obliged to keep our financial records for 7 years, so all personal data related to these records must be kept for 7 years.
In addition, we must comply with other tax legislation and legislation on personnel data.

Normal Personal Data
This includes data such as your name, address, telephone number and e-mail address. We may also have this personal data from your company's representatives or contact person within your company. In addition, in some cases we determine what role you have within your company. We use this information to contact the company about, for example, appointments or improvement of our services.
It may also be that you have contacted us about our products and services. At that point, you are registered in our CRM system. Often we only have your name, phone number and e-mail address.
Contact history
In some cases, we may keep a record of how often, when and for what reason you contacted us. Situations where this is logged include when you contact our service desk. Your call will be recorded at that time, as well as the service request you submit to us. If you call our sales department, we will keep a record of the product or service you contacted us about so we can follow up on your request.
How long we keep personal data
We will retain data for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which we are using it and for as long as we are required by law to keep your data.
Exactly how long this is can vary from a few months to many years.
Old customer data is deleted after 24 months. However, we keep the personal data we need for the legal tax retention obligation for 7 years. This includes, for example, our general ledger, accounts receivable and accounts payable, and our payroll records. In some cases, we are obliged to retain personal data for 10 years.
