Privacy policy Van Breukelen Kaas B.V.
To carry out our work, we process personal data. In some cases, we do this in cooperation with third parties.

We believe it is very important to handle personal data with care. We therefore process and secure personal data with great care, and we comply with the requirements set out in privacy legislation. This means, for example, that we:

• Clearly state for which purposes we process personal data. We do this through this privacy statement.
• Limit the collection of personal data to only those data necessary for the purposes for which they are processed.
• First ask for your explicit consent to process your personal data in cases where your consent is required.
• Do not disclose your data to third parties, unless this is necessary to deliver the requested service or if we are legally obliged to do so.
• When we share your data, we make arrangements with third parties to ensure, among other things, that they do not use the data for other purposes.
• Take appropriate security measures to protect your personal data and require the same from parties processing personal data on our behalf.
• Respect your right to access, correct or delete your personal data upon your request.

• First and last name
• Email address
• Telephone number
• Information you enter in an open field, such as a message in the contact form
• IP address

It is also possible that your data is provided by someone else, for example if a customer wants to send an order to you as a gift. In such cases, we will only use your name and address to deliver the order to you.

• To inform you about changes to our services and products.
• Van Breukelen Kaas B.V. analyses your behaviour on the website to improve the website.
• Van Breukelen Kaas B.V. also processes personal data if legally required to do so, for example data needed for our tax returns.

Sharing personal data with third parties
We share the data you provide with third parties (such as payment service providers or transporters) if this is necessary for the delivery of the products you ordered or the services you requested.

When we share your data with a third party, we ensure (with a data processing agreement) that your data will not be used for other purposes. We also agree that your data will be deleted once it is no longer needed.

Van Breukelen Kaas B.V. does not sell your data to third parties and only discloses data when necessary to perform our agreement with you or to comply with a legal obligation. With companies that process your data on our behalf, we enter into a processing agreement to ensure the same level of security and confidentiality of your data. Van Breukelen Kaas B.V. remains responsible for these processes.

Security and retention
We take appropriate security measures to prevent misuse and unauthorised access to your personal data. We ensure that only necessary personnel have access to your data, that access is protected, and that our security measures are regularly reviewed.

We do not store your data longer than necessary. This means that we keep the data as long as needed to provide the service you requested, except for data that we must keep for longer because the law requires it.

We take the protection of your data seriously and take appropriate measures to prevent misuse, loss, unauthorised access, unwanted disclosure and unauthorised modification. If you believe that your data is not properly secured or there are indications of misuse, please contact us at info@vanbreukelenkaas.nl. We have taken the following measures to protect your personal data:
