1. Personal data that I process

scherpte diepte Consultancy processes your personal data because you are using my services and/or because you have provided this information to me. Below is an overview of the personal data that I process:

– First and last name

– Address

– Phone number

– E-mail address

2. Special and/or sensitive personal data that I process

My website and/or service does not intend to collect data about website visitors who are younger than 16 years. Unless they have permission from parents or guardians. However, I cannot check whether a visitor is older than 16. I therefore advise parents to be involved in the online activities of their children, in order to prevent data about children being collected without parental consent. If you are convinced that I have collected personal information about a minor without this permission, please contact me via info@scherptediepteconsultancy.nl and I will delete this information.

3. For what purpose and on what basis do I process personal data

scherpte diepte Consultancy processes your personal data for the following purposes:

– Handling your payment (including invoices)

– Sending my newsletter and/or advertising brochure

– For contacting you by phone or e-mail if required to carry out my services

– Informing you about changes to my services and products

– scherpte diepte Consultancy also processes personal data if I am legally obliged to do so, such as information that I need for filing my tax return.

4. Automated decision-making

scherpte diepte Consultancy does not take decisions based on automated processing on matters that can have (significant) consequences for people. These are decisions taken by computer programs or systems, without a person involved.
