With whom are personal data shared?
We only share your personal data with third parties if:
- You have given permission for this;
- We are obliged to do so on the basis of the law, a court order, or an order from a competent supervisory authority;
- We or a third party have a legitimate interest that justifies the sharing of the personal data;
We only pass on the data you have provided to third parties if it is necessary to answer your question or complaint, or to deliver or maintain the products you have ordered or services requested by you. These third parties may be, for example, group companies, subcontractors, ICT and telecom providers, postal and mailing companies, banks, and companies providing payment services such as IDEAL, accountants and lawyers, or attorneys;
When we provide your data to a third party, we ensure, among other things (with an agreement), that your data are not used for other purposes. We also agree that your data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer needed, and that these third parties comply with the GDPR;
Furthermore, we will not provide the data you have provided to other parties unless this is legally required or permitted. For example, we may share personal data with third parties such as the tax authorities or SZW Inspection, or the police in the context of fraud investigations. In that case, we are legally obliged to provide this information.
Retention period of personal data
SKARV therefore retains your data for a standard period of three years. When the maximum legal retention period is shorter, for example for job applications, we use that shorter period. During this time, it may still be necessary for SKARV to have this data, for example, to contact you. When this is legally allowed or required, for example, for tax purposes or for the settlement of (possible) complaints or procedures, data may be retained longer.
No maximum retention period applies to:
- anonymized data and;
- data which is only kept for historical, statistical, or scientific purposes. Care is taken to ensure that the processing of this data is only used for those specific purposes.
Your privacy rights
You have the right to access your personal data and the right to ask us to change, restrict, transfer, or delete your data. Sometimes we cannot comply with your request, for example, based on a legal obligation resting on us. If you want to know which personal data of you we process, you can make a written request for access. SKARV will handle all your requests within a reasonable period, in principle within one month. If your request is complex or if we cannot inform you in a timely manner for other reasons, you will receive a notification.
You can send your requests or complaints to [email protected].
To prevent abuse, we may ask for identification by including a copy of a valid identity document. Don’t forget to make your number and photo unreadable on the copy. If you are not satisfied with how we handle your question or complaint, you can contact the Dutch Data Protection Authority.
