Sharing personal data with third parties
We pass on the data you provide to third parties (e.g., payment services or carriers) if this is necessary for the delivery of the products you have ordered or services you have requested.
When we provide your data to a third party, we ensure, among other things (with a processing agreement), that your data is not used for other purposes. We also agree that your data will be deleted once they are no longer needed.
Amstel Engineering does not sell your data to third parties and only provides them if necessary for the execution of our agreement with you or to comply with a legal obligation. With companies that process your data on our behalf, we conclude a processing agreement to ensure the same level of security and confidentiality of your data. Amstel Engineering remains responsible for these processing operations.
Securing and storing
We take appropriate security measures to limit misuse of and unauthorized access to your personal data. For example, we ensure that only necessary persons have access to the data, that access to the data is protected, and that our security measures are regularly checked.
We do not store the data longer than necessary. This means that we keep the data as long as necessary to provide the service you have requested. Exceptions are the data that we must keep longer because the law requires us to do so.
We take the protection of your data seriously and take appropriate measures to prevent misuse, loss, unauthorized access, unwanted disclosure, and unauthorized modification. If you have the impression that your data is not properly secured or there are indications of misuse, please contact us at info@amstel-engineering.nl. We have taken the following measures to secure your personal data:
