SECURITY 

Protecting your Personal Data is important to us. We use the industry standard technology to protect the security of your Personal Data. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet and via mobile communications networks can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we are committed to protecting your Personal Data, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or through us. At this moment, the Personal Data we collect is stored on computers located in the Netherlands. For the purposes of processing as described in this Privacy Statement, we may transfer the Personal Data to other countries that may be located outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or outside your home country and whose data protection laws may differ from the EEA or from the jurisdiction in which you live. Subject to applicable laws in such other jurisdictions, we will ensure that appropriate protections are in place to require the data processor in that country to maintain protections on the Personal Data that are equivalent to those that apply in the EEA or in the country in which you live. In addition, if you use our Services while you are outside the EEA, your information may be transferred outside the EEA in order to provide you with these Services. By agreeing to this Privacy Statement, you also consent to the transfer of your Personal Data outside the EEA or the country you live in for the purposes as described.

You can send an e-mail to the address mentioned below or on the Sites and/or through our Services and state whether you want your Personal Data removed from our database, if you want to opt-out of communications from us or if you want to opt-out of communications from third party marketers or business partners. Deleting your Personal Data or otherwise opting-out of receipt of communications from us or third parties will delete the data only in our database for purposes of managing future communications from us and third parties. These deletions will not delete Personal Data already collected that may have already been shared with third parties, all as provided above in this Privacy Policy. You will need to contact third parties that may contact you directly to delete your Personal Data that they may be using to contact you.
