Purpose of data processing

General purpose of processing

We use your data exclusively for the purpose of providing our services. This means that the purpose of the processing is always directly related to the order you place. We do not use your data for (targeted) marketing. If you share data with us and we use this data to contact you at a later date, other than at your request, we will ask for your explicit consent. Your data will not be shared with third parties, other than to comply with accounting and other administrative obligations. These third parties are all bound to confidentiality on the basis of the agreement between them and us or an oath or legal obligation.

Automatically collected data

Data that is automatically collected by our website is processed for the purpose of further improving our services. This data (e.g. your IP address, web browser and operating system) is not personal data.

Cooperation with tax and criminal investigations

In certain cases, DS Cosmetics and Skincare B.V. may be required by law to share your data in connection with tax or criminal investigations by the government. In such cases, we are obliged to share your data, but we will oppose this within the limits of the law.

Retention periods

We retain your data for as long as you are a customer of ours. This means that we retain your customer profile until you indicate that you no longer wish to use our services. If you indicate this to us, we will also consider this as a request to be forgotten. Based on applicable administrative obligations, we are required to retain invoices containing your (personal) data, so we will retain this data for as long as the applicable period lasts. However, employees will no longer have access to your client profile and documents that we have produced in response to your assignment.

Your rights

Under applicable Dutch and European legislation, you, as a data subject, have certain rights with regard to the personal data processed by or on behalf of us. Below, we explain what these rights are and how you can exercise them. In principle, to prevent misuse, we will only send copies and duplicates of your data to your email address already known to us. If you wish to receive the data at a different email address or, for example, by post, we will ask you to identify yourself. We keep a record of completed requests; in the case of a request to be forgotten, we administer anonymised data. You will receive all copies and duplicates of data in the machine-readable data format that we use within our systems. You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office at any time if you suspect that we are using your personal data in an incorrect manner.

Right of access

You always have the right to access the data that we process (or have processed) that relates to you or can be traced back to you. You can submit a request to that effect to our contact person for privacy matters. You will receive a response to your request within 30 days. If your request is granted, we will send you a copy of all data to the email address we have on file, along with an overview of the processors who have this data in their possession, stating the category under which we have stored this data.

Right to rectification

You always have the right to have the data that we process (or have processed) that relate to your person or can be traced back to you, modified. You can submit a request to that effect to our contact person for privacy matters. You will receive a response to your request within 30 days. If your request is granted, we will send you a confirmation that the data has been modified to the email address we have on file.

If your request is granted, we will send you copies or copies of all data about you that we have processed or that has been processed on our behalf by other processors or third parties to the email address known to us. In all likelihood, we will no longer be able to continue providing services in such a case, because the secure linking of data files can no longer be guaranteed.
