  • Consent: when you sign up for our newsletter or allow analytics cookies;

6. International Transfers

Some of our service providers (including Shopify) may process data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), such as in Canada or the United States.
We rely on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or other approved safeguards to ensure your data remains protected during such transfers.


7. Security and Retention of Your Information

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information and to prevent unauthorised access, loss or misuse.

Please note that no system is completely secure, and information sent over the internet may not be fully protected in transit. We recommend avoiding insecure channels for sensitive information.

We retain your data only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described above — for example, as long as you have an account, to comply with legal obligations, or to resolve disputes.

  • Access the personal data we hold about you;

  • Request correction or deletion of your information;

  • Object to or restrict processing;

  • Withdraw consent (for example, to marketing emails);

We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens (Dutch Data Protection Authority): www.autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl.
