Personal information we share or disclose

Do we share your personal data with third parties?

Except as stated in this privacy statement or specifically agreed with you, we will not disclose any personal data collected from you to third parties, unless Cordstrap is required to share this data to fulfill your request or for legitimate business purposes or interests.

We may transfer personal data to our affiliated companies, intermediaries, or distributors in the country where the relevant individual or legal entity is located. To the extent that these parties are located outside the EU, Cordstrap has entered into EU model contract clauses with these parties to ensure that they provide an adequate level of personal data protection. Otherwise, we do not sell, trade, or rent personally identifiable information to others. We have appropriate data processing agreements with third parties that meet the requirements of the GDPR.

We may further use external service providers to do business on our behalf or perform administrative activities on our behalf, such as sending newsletters or surveys.

How we use your personal data

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

  • Where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you.
  • Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
  • Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

On the basis of fulfilling our contract with you or entering into a contract with you on your request, in order to:

  • register and manage your account as a customer or supplier with us;
  • To process and deliver your order including managing payments, fees and charges, collecting and recover money owed to us or money we owe you.
  • providing general administrative activities;
  • provide you with products and services;
  • verifying your identity and entitlement to products and services when you contact us;
  • Process your order and purchase transaction;
  • Update you on the status of your order;
  • Provide you with customer and technical support.

On the basis of your consent, in order to:

  • providing you with marketing information about products and services which we feel may interest you;
  • subscribe you to a newsletter and send product updates;
  • Solicit your opinion or feedback.

Legitimate interest

When you provide or have provided your personal information to us we use this information for our legitimate business interests to carry out our work towards a sustainable business environment. Before doing this, we will consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights under data protection and any other relevant laws. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests – we will not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law).

Processing of personal data for marketing purposes is based on legitimate interest of Cordstrap in promoting its products and services to its existing and potential customer base. Though our customers are exclusively legal persons (as Cordstrap, being a business to business organization, does not supply products or services to individuals). This implies the use of personal data on contact persons within those legal persons, such as names and contact details. Given the fact that these marketing communications are directed at legal persons, that they are collected in the context of a request for a quote, enquiries or an actual sale of products and services, and that individuals which receive these communications are entitled to opt-out at any time (including when their data is collected and within each communication sent), we believe that our legitimate interest is not overridden by individuals’ rights, freedoms and interests. It is not mandatory for you to allow Cordstrap to use your Personal Data for these purposes, and you will suffer no consequence if you choose not to (aside from not being able to receive further marketing communications from Cordstrap).

Where we store your personal information

Our head office is based in The Netherlands. As such, all personal data we collect is stored in our data center in The Netherlands. The Cloud solutions we use are hosted in The Netherlands adhering to lawful Data Processor Agreements.

Privacy policy of Cordstrap, last amended on March 28, 2024.

 

Cookie Policy

In our cookie policy, we have described the types of cookies we use, the purposes for which we use cookies, how you can change cookie settings, and where you can go with any questions.

In addition to the cookie policy, we also advise you to read our privacy policy.

What are cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or device during your visit to a website. These files store information about browser activities.

These cookies are used, among other things, to improve the user experience of the website, analyze website traffic, remember website user preferences, and provide personalized advertisements.

What types of cookies do we use?

When you visit our site, we always use functional and analytical cookies.

When we collect personal data about you through cookies, we process it as described in our privacy policy.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies ensure that our site works properly. The site remembers, for example, that you are already logged in and which data or preferences you have previously entered. These cookies do not collect information about you and cannot be disabled. Without these cookies, the website will not function properly. No consent is required for these functional cookies.

Analytical cookies

Analytical cookies measure the use of the website. For example, how many visitors visit the website, which pages are visited the most, and how long they are visited. These cookies are used to optimize the user experience. For this purpose, we use Google Analytics from Google Inc. Google generates anonymous reports for us based on data. Google stores the information on its servers in the USA. For more information, see https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en

Because Cordstrap uses the "privacy-friendly" settings of Google Analytics, Cordstrap uses less data from you and you do not need to give consent. Analytical cookies do not collect personal data and can therefore be placed.

If you do not agree to these cookies, you may still receive advertisements. However, these advertisements will not be tailored to your interests.

How long are the data obtained by cookies retained?

Cordstrap does not retain the data longer than strictly necessary for the purpose. Data is deleted within legal deadlines. In the table at the bottom of this cookie policy, you can find information about how long the data is retained for each cookie.

Adjusting or deleting cookie settings

Functional and analytical cookies cannot be adjusted. If you want to change your choice regarding marketing cookies, you can do so in several ways;
