You can always ask to see the data we hold on you.

Right of correction
You may ask us to correct your data if it is incorrect or incomplete.

For example, you can indicate to us that you no longer wish to receive mail from us. It also applies to personalised recommendations on our website.

Right to be forgotten
You may ask us to delete any data we hold on you. We will then delete all data that can be traced back to you. In some cases, we cannot or may not yet delete your data. For example, we have to keep some data for 7 years for tax purposes.

Our privacy statement must comply with several conditions. In particular, these conditions can be found in the General Data Protection Regulation. In addition, the general rules applicable under Dutch law apply to our privacy statement.
