The controller responsible for processing your personal data is:

CROP registeraccountants
De Brand 40
3823 LL Amersfoort
033 – 46 357 27

Cookies

When you visit our website, we process personal data using cookies. We use functional, analytical and tracking cookies. Read more about cookies in our cookie statement.

 How does CROP obtain your personal data?

We obtain your personal data partly through the use of the website (indirectly) and partly because you actively leave personal data on the website (directly).

Is CROP permitted to process your personal data?

We only process personal data for a reason specified in the GDPR (the basis). The possible bases are listed in Article 6 of the GDPR. The bases on which CROP processes personal data are:

Consent

If you have given your consent, we may process your personal data. This could be us sending you the newsletter if you leave your contact details for this purpose and have confirmed your subscription. You always have the right to withdraw previously given consent.

 Legitimate interest

We process personal data in order to (continue to) provide our services to our website visitors as efficiently as possible and to make our website as useful as possible.

CROP processes your personal data only for the purpose for which they were obtained.

 Who has access to your personal data?

Only employees charged with or directing the performance of the activities for which your personal data have been received have access to the personal data.

Does CROP use automated decision-making?

We do not use automated decision-making.

How does CROP secure your personal data?

We take both technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data. We follow the applicable legal requirements and guidelines in this context. Examples of a technical measure are secure servers and firewalls. An example of an organisational measure is restricted access to the personal data. A summary of technical and organisational measures can be requested from avg@crop.nl.

How long does CROP keep your personal data?

We do not keep your personal data for longer than is necessary to realise the purposes for which we collect your data.

Does CROP share your personal data with third parties?

We only share your personal data with third parties if it is necessary for realisation of the purposes.
When you ‘order’ a product or service via our website, we may need to transfer your personal data to a third party that provides support for this activity. In such cases, these companies are not entitled to use these data for any other purpose.

If CROP shares your personal data with third parties, we will conclude a (sub)processor agreement with those parties. CROP only engages processors who provide adequate safeguards and take adequate measures to ensure the protection of personal data and the processing thereof is in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. We keep a record of the (sub)processors we engage.

Exceptions to this are bodies that are allowed to request data under laws and regulations. In these cases, CROP is reluctant to share specific personal data unless sharing at the level of the person is a requirement. In that case, the privacy officer is always involved.

What are your rights?

You have the following rights with regard to your personal data:

  • Withdraw your consent to processing
  • Receive information about what we do with your data and why
  • Access to the data we process about you
  • Have incorrect data corrected
  • Have data that no longer need to be processed by us deleted
  • Object to processing
  • Have the processing limited
  • Have your data transferred to a third party
  • Submit a complaint

A more detailed explanation of the various rights can be found on the website of the Dutch Data Protection Authority.

However, these rights are not unlimited. The applicable laws and regulations provide the frameworks within which we may or may not have to honour such requests. This may mean that we are obliged to retain data and therefore cannot cooperate with a deletion request.

Complaint

If you do not agree with how we process your personal data, you can file a complaint with our privacy officer (avg@crop.nl). If your complaint is not resolved to your satisfaction, you can file a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority.

More information

Do you have questions about this privacy statement, want to exercise (one of) your rights or have other questions about how we handle privacy? Then contact our privacy officer, Mr Henk Rompelman (avg@crop.nl).

Other

We reserve the right to amend this privacy statement, for instance, if a change in legislation requires us to do so. We will post any revised versions on this website.
