Processing of personal data: Processing is any activity that is carried out with personal data. This includes collecting, storing, organizing, maintaining, adapting, using, transferring, distributing, making available, combining, protecting, erasing, exchanging, and destroying such data.

Cookies:

Cookies are small files placed on your device when you visit our website. They ensure that the website remembers information about your visit, such as language settings, login details, or other preferences. This allows the website to function correctly and improves your user experience. Some cookies are necessary for the functioning of the website, while others collect analytical information. Cookies are not personal data in themselves, but when stored or collected in combination with personal data, they can indirectly be linked to an identified or identifiable person.

Legal grounds

The law provides specific scenarios in which an organisation is permitted to process personal data. We process your data in the following situations:

  • We need the data to fulfil our obligations towards you. These may include the services we offer you or the obligations arising from the employment or cooperation agreement we conclude with you or your employer;
  • We need the data to comply with legal obligations, such as correctly reporting and paying taxes and levies;
  • We, as an organisation, have legitimate interests in processing your personal data, without infringing on your own interests, rights, or freedoms;
  • We have obtained your explicit and unambiguous consent to carry out certain processing activities.

Which personal data do we process?

When you visit our website, we process the following personal data about you, but we anonymise your IP address so that it can never be traced back to you:

  • IP address (immediately anonymised by replacing the last digits with zeros);
  • Personal information such as your date of birth and gender;
  • Your (approximate) geographical location at the moment you visit our website;
  • Specifications of your computer or mobile device (type, operating system, browser, language, etc.);
  • How you accessed our website (via which link);
  • Your browsing behaviour on the website (duration of your visit, which pages you view, click behaviour, etc.).

We also process certain information through the use of cookies.

We use the following types of cookies:

  • Necessary cookies: These cookies are required to enable the basic functionalities of the website, such as secure operation of the site and saving your cookie preferences. Without these cookies, the website cannot function properly.
  • Functional cookies: These cookies enable additional functionalities, such as sharing content via social media platforms, collecting feedback, and activating certain third‑party features.

  • Other cookies: These are cookies that have not yet been assigned to one of the categories above. These cookies are currently being further analysed and will be correctly classified where necessary.

Necessary cookies are always active because they are essential for the proper functioning of the website and for storing your cookie preferences. These cookies cannot be refused. Functional, analytical, performance, advertising, and other non‑essential cookies are only placed after you have given your explicit consent. You may change or withdraw your consent at any time through the cookie settings.

Here you can adjust the cookie settings.

What we use your personal data for

We use your personal data, on the one hand, to ensure the proper functioning of our website and, on the other hand, to make your browsing experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible.

We also use your (anonymised) personal data to compile statistics and perform analyses. The purpose of this is to identify certain trends and patterns so we can optimise our website and better tailor it to our target audience.

For example: If we notice that a specific page on our website is rarely visited, we know that this page may be difficult to find for visitors or that there is little to no interest in its content.

In addition, we use information about your browsing behaviour on our website to optimise our marketing activities and target audiences more effectively.

Your data is never used for purposes involving automated decision-making.

Who has access to your personal data

For the processing of the data listed below, we use the tool Google Analytics:

  • Specifications of your computer or mobile device (type, operating system, browser, language, etc.);
  • How you arrived on our website (via which link); and
  • Your behaviour on the website (duration of your visit, which pages you view, etc.).

Appropriate safeguards are applied to ensure that neither we nor Google can link this information back to you.

To capture your browsing and click behaviour, we use the software Hotjar.
The collected data is shared with Facebook and LinkedIn to show you relevant advertisements on those platforms. This processing takes place solely on the basis of your prior consent. You are free to refuse this consent and may withdraw it at any time.

We do not sell the personal data we collect to third parties.

How long do we retain personal data?

You can disable or delete all installed cookies from your computer or mobile device at any time through your browser settings (usually found under “Help” or “Internet Options”).
Each type of browser has its own settings for managing cookies. You can find this information on the help page of the browser you are using.

The following data is deleted fifty (50) months after your visit:

  • Specifications of your computer or mobile device (type, operating system, browser, language, etc.);
  • How you arrived on our website (via which link);
  • Your behaviour on the website (duration of your visit, which pages you viewed, etc.).

This data is anonymised immediately upon receipt and can therefore not be traced back to you directly.

How we protect your personal data

We make every possible effort to ensure the secure processing of your personal data. To achieve this, we have implemented various technical and organisational security measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, misuse, loss, and theft.

The most important measures include:

  • We use software and IT infrastructure from market‑leading providers who apply the highest security standards and strictly comply with legal requirements;
  • Only authorised individuals have access to your personal data;
  • All our employees are trained to process personal data in accordance with the rules prescribed by legislation;
  • We work exclusively with partners who comply with legal regulations and who uphold the same strict standards for the secure processing of personal data.

In the event of a data breach that could potentially impact your rights and freedoms, you will be informed in the manner required by law.

What are your rights?

You have the right, at any time, to:

  • Access your personal data and request a copy of it;
  • Correct any incorrect, incomplete, inappropriate, or outdated data;
  • Object to the processing of your personal data and have this processing partially or fully restricted, even if you previously gave consent;
  • Have your data erased;
  • Receive your data in a structured and digitally readable format.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights or submit a complaint, you can do so by sending an email to legal@recurv.be or by post to the address of our registered office.
