Purpose of Data Processing

General Purpose of Processing

We only use your data for the purpose of our services. This means that the purpose of the processing is always directly related to the assignment you provide. We do not use your data for (targeted) marketing. If you share data with us and we use this data to contact you at a later time - other than at your request - we will ask for explicit consent. Your data is not shared with third parties, other than to meet accounting and other administrative obligations. These third parties are all bound by confidentiality based on the agreement between them and us or an oath or legal obligation.

Automatically Collected Data

Data that is automatically collected by our website is processed with the aim of further improving our services. This data (e.g., your IP address, web browser, and operating system) is not personal data.

Cooperation in Fiscal and Criminal Investigations

In certain cases, Damp-e may be legally obliged to share your data in connection with fiscal or criminal investigations by the government. In such a case, we are forced to share your data, but we will resist this to the extent that the law allows us.

Retention Periods

We keep your data as long as you are our client. This means that we keep your customer profile until you indicate that you no longer wish to use our services. If you inform us of this, we will also interpret this as a forget request. This also means that we will not keep your data for longer than two years from the last point of contact or transaction, unless there is a legal justification for doing so. Based on applicable administrative obligations, we need to keep invoices with your (personal) data, so we will keep this data for as long as the applicable term runs. However, employees no longer have access to your client profile and documents that we have produced based on your assignment.

Your Rights

Based on the applicable Dutch and European legislation, you, as the data subject, have certain rights regarding the personal data processed by or on our behalf. We explain below what these rights are and how you can invoke these rights. In principle, to prevent abuse, we send copies and copies of your data only to your already known email address. If you wish to receive the data at another email address or, for example, by post, we will ask you to identify yourself. We keep a record of completed requests; in the case of a forget request, we administer anonymized data. You will receive all copies and copies of data in the machine-readable data format that we use within our systems. You always have the right to file a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority if you suspect that we are using your personal data in the wrong way.

Right of Access

You always have the right to inspect the data that we (have) process and that relate to your person or can be traced back to it. You can make a request to that effect to our contact person for privacy matters. You will receive a response to your request within 30 days. If your request is granted, we will send you a copy of all data with an overview of the processors who have this data, stating the category under which we have stored this data.

Right of Rectification

You always have the right to have the data that we (have) process and that relate to your person or can be traced back to it adjusted. You can make a request to that effect to our contact person for privacy matters. You will receive a response to your request within 30 days. If your request is granted, we will send you a confirmation at the email address known to us that the data has been adjusted.

Right to Restrict Processing

You always have the right to restrict the data that we (have) process that relate to your person or can be traced back to it. You can make a request to that effect to our contact person for privacy matters. You will receive a response to your request within 30 days. If your request is granted, we will send you a confirmation at the email address known to us that the data will no longer be processed until you lift the restriction.

Right to Data Portability

You always have the right to have the data that we (have) process and that relate to your person or can be traced back to it, executed by another party. You can make a request to that effect to our contact person for privacy matters. You will receive a response to your request within 30 days. If your request is granted, we will send you copies or copies of all data about you that we have processed or that have been processed on our behalf by other processors or third parties at the email address known to us. In all likelihood, we can no longer continue the service in such a case because the secure linking of data files can no longer be guaranteed.

Right to Object and Other Rights

In certain cases, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data by or on behalf of Damp-e. If you object, we will immediately stop the data processing pending the settlement of your objection. If your objection is justified, we will provide you with copies and/or copies of data that we (have) process and then permanently stop processing. You also have the right not to be subjected to automated individual decision-making or profiling. We do not process your data in such a way that this right applies. If you believe that this is the case, please contact our contact person for privacy matters.
