About Data Processing

Below you can read how we process your data, where we (let) store it, which security techniques we use, and who has access to the data.

We only collect personal data that you provide yourself when requesting/contacting/requesting samples or when ordering. Here, we try to ask for only necessary data. This may include:

- First and last name
- Address details
- Telephone number (optional where possible)
- Email address

If you apply for a position at Kranendonk B.V., we also receive and store your CV. This data is deleted 6 weeks after the end of the procedure.

In addition, some data is collected automatically by our website in order to further improve our services. This data (such as your IP address, web browser, and operating system) is not personal data. This data is deleted after 6 months.

Newsletter

If you like to stay up to date with new products and promotions, you can subscribe to our newsletter. We will then register your email address. If you register for our newsletter, we will use the data required for this purpose or provided separately by you to send you our email newsletter regularly based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR.

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by sending a message to the contact option described above or via a link provided for this purpose in the newsletter. After unsubscribing, we will delete your email address from our newsletter database.

Purpose of Data Processing

We use your personal data exclusively for the purpose of our services: to execute the agreement and to further improve our services.

Use and Exchange of Your Personal Data

We do not use your data for (targeted) marketing without your explicit consent (for example, signing up for the newsletter). You can also withdraw this consent at any time. Kranendonk B.V. does not sell your data to third parties. Of course, we share necessary data with parties involved in the execution of the agreement. Think of carriers, IT services, and other services. Or to comply with a legal obligation. With companies that process your data on our behalf, we conclude a data processing agreement to ensure the security and confidentiality of your data. Kranendonk B.V. remains responsible for these processes.

Processing of Payment Data

To handle (part of) the payments in our webshop, we use, among others,

- the platform of Mollie B.V.
- the various platforms of banks
- Paypal, if you choose Paypal as a payment method

These payment platforms process your name, address, and place of residence, and your payment details such as your bank account or credit card number. These payment platforms have taken appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data. These payment platforms reserve the right to use your data to further improve the service and, in this context, share (anonymized) data with third parties. In the case of a request for deferred payment (credit facility), these payment platforms share personal data and information about your financial position with credit rating agencies. All the safeguards mentioned above regarding the protection of your personal data also apply to the parts of the service provision of these payment platforms for which they engage third parties. These payment platforms do not keep your data longer than allowed by law.

Processing of Personal Data for Reviews

To demonstrate our reliability and measure your satisfaction, we use the seal of approval and review service of Trusted Shops GmbH. For this purpose, your order number, name, and purchase data are shared with Trusted Shops. After purchase, you will therefore receive a one-time email from Trusted Shops asking you to rate our service and products.

Processing of Personal Data for Marketing Purposes

Of course, we want to offer you the best shopping experience and show you as relevant advertisements as possible on our website and beyond. For this, we use various analysis and marketing tools. If data is shared with these parties, it concerns non-personal/traceable data, or your data is hashed shared, which means that it is irreversibly anonymized. For more information, see the section Cookies & Similar Techniques.

Cooperation in Fiscal and Criminal Investigations

In certain cases, Kranendonk B.V. may be required by law to share your data in connection with fiscal or criminal investigations by government agencies. In such a case, we are obliged to share your data, but we will resist this to the extent permitted by law.

Retention Periods

We will not retain the collected personal data for longer than strictly necessary and as legally regulated to achieve the purposes for which the data was collected. Based on applicable administrative obligations, we must retain documentation related to your order (invoices, receipts, order confirmations, etc.) with your personal data, so we will retain this data for as long as the legal term (7 years) runs. We anonymize personal data as much as possible after a period of 1 year.
