With whom do we share data and where do we store it?
In a number of cases we provide your data to third parties, for example to processors who help us process your personal data, but also in the context of the performance of your work, to our shareholder and any partners with whom we collaborate. However, we will never sell your data to other parties.
Processors who help us process your personal data are only allowed to use your data on our behalf and for the execution of the relevant services they provide to us. They may not use or pass on your personal data on their own behalf.
We use various applications to process certain data. To ensure your privacy, we choose our suppliers carefully, and the applications are subject to strict rules. Most of the data is stored within the European Union.
For the data that is processed outside the EU, we only work with parties that offer sufficient protection according to European rules. If we process your data outside the EU (possibly through our external service providers), we will ensure adequate protection of your personal data, for example by using special contracts (e.g. EU model contract provisions).
How long will we retain your personal data?
We will retain your data for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which we use your data and/or as long as required by law. The period may vary from a few months to many years, for example if so required for the purpose of efficient bookkeeping.
We will in any case retain your data for as long as your account remains active, unless you ask us to delete data or your account by email at info@qualinx.nl. You can always view and/or change some of your personal data in your own account.
How do we protect your personal data?
Pursuant to Article 32 of the GDPR, we are obliged to take appropriate technical and organizational measures to prevent the loss of personal data or unlawful processing. The security of your personal data is well regulated by physical, administrative, organizational and technical measures.
Only authorized staff who have signed a confidentiality agreement have access to the data. Thus we maintain an adequate level of protection, which is periodically adjusted (if necessary).
Our organization is set up in such a way that we do everything in our power to prevent data breaches. If there is a data breach, we will act in accordance with the Data Breach Protocol.
