JvKolck - Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes the purpose of this site. It also states that it is not intended to collect data other than to provide proper access to my website via the URL: www.jvkolck.nl.

Reasons for data collection

There is no reason for me to process your personal data (i.e., any information which may potentially allow your identification with reasonable means; hereinafter: "Personal Data"). Data other than that provided by you through the contact screen is not knowingly processed by me other than that which is necessary for the proper functioning of the website. When you use the Site and subsequently the contact page, you explicitly consent to receiving the data you provide. Nevertheless, I will not disclose received data and will only use it for the contact as intended and as made known by the message you sent. As a natural person, I will adhere to existing privacy legislation as laid down by the Dutch State.

What kind of data is collected through this site?

Two types of data and information are collected from Users.


The first type of information is un-identified and non-identifiable information relating to a User(s), which may be made available or collected through your use of the Site ("Non-Personal Data"). We are not aware of the identity of a User from which Non-Personal Data is collected. Non-Personal Data that is collected may include your aggregated usage information and technical information transmitted by your device, including certain software and hardware information (e.g., the type of browser and operating system your device uses, language preference, access times, etc.) in order to enhance the functionality of our Site. We may also collect information about your activities on the Site (e.g., pages viewed, browsing activity, clicks, actions, etc.).


The second type of information is Personal Data. This is individually identifiable information that can identify an individual, with or without reasonable effort. This type of information includes:

 

  • Device Information: We collect Personal Data from your device. This data may include location data, IP address, unique identifiers (e.g., MAC address and UUID), and other information relating to your activities on the site.


I will not request or otherwise use this data myself, as my site is solely intended to share my personal information. The site is not intended to request, store, or share user information other than what the user determines via the contact screen.

How do I receive information about you?

I receive your personal data from only one source: When you voluntarily provide personal data through my Site;

What kind of data do we collect?

We do not rent, sell, or share Users’ information with third parties except as described in this Privacy Policy. We may use the information for the following purposes: Communicating with you – to send you notices, to provide you with technical information, and to respond to any questions or issues you may have with the Site; In addition to the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy, I also need to share Personal Data with our trusted third party provider “My Domain” through the use of their tools. I need to do this for the following purposes: Hosting and operating this Site;

Save

It is not our intention to store any personal data at all. The personal data you provide via the contact screen is stored to enable us to respond to it, as stated in your message. Any data stored from the necessary tools will not be requested by me. Data stored there is retained based on existing backup methods of the organization "Mijn Domein" (My Domain). The backup cycle, which I partially control, will no longer be retained as strictly necessary for proper website management.

Cookies

I do not use cookies because I do not need them for my site and its purpose. If the underlying tools—for management and necessary for the proper functioning of the site—do apply cookies, I will not use them. I will not consciously consult the temporary data stored there. A "cookie" is a small piece of information that a website assigns to your device while you are viewing a website. Cookies are very useful and can be used for many different purposes. For example, they can help you navigate between pages efficiently, activate certain features automatically, remember your preferences, and make the interaction between you and our Services quicker and easier. However, I will not use cookies in relation to advertisements that you see. After all, my site does not display advertisements. The Site may use the following types of cookies: a. "session cookies," which are stored only temporarily during a browsing session to allow you to use the system normally. These cookies are deleted from your device when the browser is closed; b. 'persistent cookies' which are read only by the Site, stored on your computer for a fixed period, and are not deleted when the browser is closed. These cookies are used where we need to know who you are for repeat visits, for example to allow us to save your preferences for the next time you log in; Cookies do not contain any information that personally identifies you, but Personal Data that we store about you may be linked by us to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. You can delete cookies by following the instructions in your device preferences. Should you choose to disable any cookies, this will not affect certain features of the Site. c. 'third-party cookies' I may use a tool called 'Google Analytics' to collect information about your use of the Site. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users access the Site, the pages they visit when they do so, etc. I use the information I obtain from Google Analytics only to improve the Site and services. Google Analytics collects your IP address on the date you visit sites, rather than your name or other personally identifiable information. I do not combine the information I collect using Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Google's ability to use and share the information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy.

Collection of information by third parties

My policy addresses only the use and disclosure of information collected from you. If you disclose your information to other parties or sites throughout the internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you provide. Therefore, I encourage you to review the terms and conditions of each third party to which you disclose information. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of companies that I do not own or control, or to individuals whom I do not employ.

How do we protect your data?

I implement and maintain the security of the Site and your information with great care. To this end, I ensure that I never ask for personal data from you, other than what you share through the contact screen. In addition, I apply the necessary security measures offered by "My Domain" via the "WebsiteMaker" tool. While I take all reasonable steps to protect all data, I cannot be held responsible for the actions of persons who gain unauthorized access to or misuse this Site, and I cannot guarantee, implicitly, explicitly, or otherwise, that I will prevent such access.

Minors

I understand the importance of protecting children's privacy, especially online. This Site is not intended for or targeted at children. Because I cannot prevent children from accessing the Site, I will ensure that no services or images on this Site are inappropriate for children. If a parent or guardian discovers that services or images are available through this Site, they can, of course, immediately notify us via the contact form, and appropriate action will be taken.

Updates or changes to this Privacy Policy

If necessary and/or desirable, for example, due to evolving insights or changing legislative proposals, I reserve the right to amend or revise this Privacy Policy. Material changes will take effect immediately upon publication of the revised Privacy Policy. Only the most recent version will be displayed. Your continued use of this website after reading this Privacy Policy signifies your acknowledgement and approval of this current Privacy Policy and your agreement to the then-current terms.
