PRIVACY STATEMENT

This privacy statement sets out the privacy procedures relevant to this website and explains how data is collected through the website, how it is used and what control you have over it.
If you have any questions about or do not find what you are looking for in this privacy statement, please contact us.

This privacy notice was last updated on 1 January 2024.

Data we collect

Our website does not intend to collect data on website visitors under 16 years of age. Unless they have parental or guardian consent. However, we cannot verify whether a visitor is over 16. We therefore advise parents to be involved in their children’s online activities to avoid collecting data on children without parental consent. If you are convinced that we have collected personal data about a minor without such consent, please contact us at jkraak@borrie.nl and we will delete this information.

In administering and maintaining the website, we may collect and process the following data about you:

Data about your use of the website, including details of your visits, such as pages viewed and your access to resources. Such data includes data traffic data, location data and other communication data. Our web servers collect certain data about all visitors to this website, including:

  • IP addresses
  • Host names
  • Domain names
  • The date and time information is looked up
  • The browser version and platform used to look up information
  • An overview of retrieved pages

This data is used to compile aggregated visitor statistics linked to the pages visited. The data may also be used to monitor usage patterns on this website in order to improve navigation and design features to make it easier for you to find the information you are looking for.
Data you provide voluntarily, such as your name, company name, address and contact details such as your phone number or e-mail address, for example when you sign up for a newsletter or when you fill in forms on the website, or when you ask us for information.

Data you provide when you contact us or otherwise communicate with us. Examples include reporting a problem, submitting questions and comments about the website or its content and when you provide us with data about how you heard about us and inform us about which of our services you would like to receive more information.

Apps, QR codes and other related technologies
When you scan a QR code, the third party we engage to provide you with those QR codes may collect certain data from your mobile device (such as your mobile device identifier and your IP address). We only use this data for our statistical reports on users of the website and our services.

Non-personal data
We may automatically collect additional non-personal data about you, such as the type of internet browser you use or the website from which you arrived at this website. The data collected is anonymous and you cannot be identified from it. The data collected will only be used for effective services on the website and to fix errors that may occur during your visit to the website.

Use of your data

We use the data we collect about you to help us provide you with a better service. In addition, we may also use the data for one or more of the following purposes:

To contact you only when you have asked us to (for example, if you indicate via the website that you wish to be called by us)

To provide you with information you have requested from us. (For example, if you subscribe to a newsletter we publish)

Analysing website usage to improve our content and services
We may also send you further information about our services or update you on news via our periodic newsletters, provided you have indicated that you would like to receive information for these purposes, including if you have specifically registered or opted in to receive emails.

No data or information obtained through this website will be distributed or sold to outside parties for consumer marketing purposes or host mailings on behalf of third parties outside Borrie.

Disclosing your data
We may share your details with organisations that help us provide the services referred to in this privacy notice and which may process such details on our behalf and in accordance with this privacy notice to support the Website and our services. For example, we may need to provide these details to a third party – such as a mailing company – in order to provide you with the information you have requested. Details may also be passed to third parties who provide back office support or IT services.

We may disclose personal data in the following cases:

  • if you consent to this as permitted under applicable law
  • if required by law, a court order or an order of a supervisory authority
    to prevent fraud or other crimes; or if we believe it is necessary to protect and defend the rights, property or personal safety of the website or its visitors.
  • If there is a reorganisation or we are sold to a third party, you agree that the personal data we hold about you may be transferred to that reorganised entity or third party.

Data changes and retention
Data collected from visitors to the website is retained solely to provide the required services. Data is retained and eventually destroyed in accordance with Borrie’s data retention policy. If you wish your data to be updated, changed or deleted from our system, please contact us, specifying exactly what you would like changed.

Links to third-party websites
Occasionally, we post links to third-party websites on the website. Our inclusion of any link does not signify our endorsement or approval of that website’s policy on visitor privacy. We encourage you to read its privacy policy before using that website or submitting personal data to it.

E-mail messages
Messages you send us by e-mail may not be secure. We recommend that you do not send confidential information to us by e-mail. If you do choose to send confidential information to us by e-mail, you do so at your own risk, knowing that a third party may intercept that information. Instructions you send by e-mail and to the website are processed solely at your risk.

Social media platforms
We have included social plug-ins from Social Media platforms on the Website. If a relevant social plug-in appears on the Website, your browser with which you visit the Website establishes a direct connection to the servers of the Social Media platform. These servers recognise your visit to this website. If you are a member of the relevant social media platform and are logged in when you visit this website, the social media platform assigns data to your personal social media account with that platform. By clicking on the icon of the relevant plug-in (such as a ‘like’ button), this data will be shared with your personal user account for that Social Media platform. Please read the privacy policy of the relevant Social Media platform to learn more about your rights and choices.

Accessing, updating or correcting personal data
You may ask us whether we hold personal data about you and, pursuant to applicable law and relevant exceptions, you may ask for a copy of that data. A fee may apply for this (which will never exceed the maximum allowed by law under local legislation). If a fee is payable, we will inform you before such fees are charged. You may also contact us if you believe that data about you should be corrected, updated or deleted.

More information
We want to provide you with an optimal browser experience. Therefore, additional functions, features, products or services may be added to the website from time to time. As a result, and because of our commitment to protect the privacy of your personal data, changes may be made periodically to this privacy statement. Therefore, please check it regularly for any changes.

If you have any questions about our privacy statement, please contact us.
