Privacy statement

PRIVACY STATEMENT VAN TILL ADVOCATEN

Van Till advocaten greatly values your privacy. That is why we believe it is important to tell you the details of our privacy policy.

In this privacy statement we clarify which data we process when and for what purpose. The personal data that you provide us with, is always stored on secure servers and is not accessible to third parties.

Personal data that we process

Personal data is understood as data which can be directly or indirectly traced back to you as a person, for example your name and address details. Our basic principle is that we never collect and process more personal data about you than strictly necessary.

The personal data that we process about you is limited to personal data that is necessary within the framework of the execution of our agreement with you. Such data consists of contact details about you or your organisation and its contact persons and the personal data we obtain from you within the framework of the assignment you have issued.

Why Van Till advocaten needs your personal data

We process your personal data for various purposes. For example, we need your personal data to execute the agreement by which you commissioned us to provide services, but also to keep proper administrative records. We also use your personal data to update you on developments that can be important for you.

We also need your personal data to fulfil our legal obligations. This means, for example, statutory regulations relating to the structure of our business operations. Where appropriate, we are also obliged to save a copy of your identity document pursuant to the Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Act [Wet ter voorkoming van witwassen en financieren van terrorisme, “Wwft”].

Who processes your personal data

Van Till advocaten, established at De Lairessestraat 131-135 (1075 HJ) Amsterdam, is responsible for collecting and processing your personal data.

Issuing your personal data to third parties

Your personal data is forwarded to third parties if necessary for the execution of the agreement by which you commissioned us to provide services, if we have a legal obligation to do so, or in instances in which we use an external service provider during the execution of our work. As far as required, we will conclude a data processing agreement with such third parties, in order to ensure that your personal data will be kept confidential and will be used solely in the context of the purpose we determined.

Your data will be forwarded as necessary to third parties located outside the EU, if this is part of our agreement with you. This may be the case, for example, if you ask us to represent your interests outside the EU.

The rights you have in relation to your personal data

You have the right to inspect your personal data which we process, but you also have the right to be forgotten and to have your personal data altered, transferred or deleted. You can also object to further processing your personal data. Lastly, you can ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data.

If you want to inspect the personal data we have recorded about you, to have such data altered because it is incorrect or incomplete, or you want to have such data deleted or transferred, you can send us an email via info@vantill.nl and we will inform you as soon as possible and by no later than four weeks regarding which personal data we have processed and whether we will, or can, meet your request to delete, alter or transfer.

If you have any complaints about our data processing, please contact us via info@vantill.nl or +31 20 4700177. We would also like to point out that you can submit a complaint to the Dutch supervisory body, the Dutch Data Protection Authority [Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens].

The length of time that Van Till advocaten keeps your personal data

All personal data that you provide us with will not be stored any longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. In any event, we will store the personal data you provided as long as necessary for carrying out your assignment and to process any possible claims. Certain personal data is subject to a statutory retention period. For example, we have a legal duty to retain fiscal data for at least seven years. We keep any invoices we send to you for this period.

Amendments

This privacy policy may be amended from time to time, if there is cause to do so. The most recent version of this privacy statement can be found on our website.
