There is an unsubscribe button in every email, which allows you to unsubscribe from receiving the newsletter at any time. For sending newsletters, I use Laposta. Based in Zutphen, The Netherlands, this company adheres to European regulations.

- To create invoices, I process your name, e-mail address, billing address, phone number, customer number and company and VAT number (Chamber of Commerce number in the Netherlands). I need this information to process payments. The Belgian tax authorities require these records to be kept for 5 years. After that, I will remove it.

Special and/or sensitive personal data
I also attach great importance to the privacy of persons under the age of 16. It is not my intention to collect data from this target group unless they have permission from their parents or guardian.
