What personal data do we collect?
If you are a customer or supplier, we only collect personal data when you decide to communicate identification data to us: we collect name and contact information and possibly your position within your company. Further, we collect the contents of each communication so long as this is necessary for providing our services to you.
If you appear in word or image in our promotional clips or promotional material made at the customer´s order, we process only those data that you yourself communicate to us: your name, position, your vision about the company, etc.
You can visit our website without communicating any personal data. In that case, however, it is possible that certain data are collected via Cookies, for example in order to record the language in which you consult the website.

What are your rights?
In accordance with the Belgian Privacy Act and the General Data Protection Regulation, you can exercise the right to access and correct your data at any time. Furthermore, you can file a request to have data deleted at any time and in accordance with the data protection regulations. If the processing is based on your consent, you can withdraw that consent – in whole or part – at any time. However, that may have as a consequence that we will no longer be able to provide our services.
All of this can be done by sending a request with an attached copy of your identity card to privacy@madaboutyou.eu or by letter to the address of the headquarters. In accordance with such a request, we will make no further use of your personal data and we will only continue to retain them in so far as and to the extent that this should be necessary for the fulfilment of a statutory obligation or the pursuit of a legitimate interest.
If you have a question or complaint about the processing of your personal data, send it to privacy@madaboutyou.eu. We promise to respond promptly to your request or complaint.
If at any time you find that one of your rights has not been respected, you can also file a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (see: www.gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit.be).
