To whom do we provide your personal data?
We do not disclose your information to third parties (‘recipients' within the meaning of privacy legislation), unless necessary for the proper performance of the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. For example: to fulfil your order, we need to share your data with payment providers and transportation companies. We may share personal data with our service providers, such as hosting providers, e-mail services and (other) software suppliers, payment service providers, transportation companies, lawyers etc. Furthermore, we may share your data when necessary to and defend the rights or property of House of Mabango and when necessary to protect the personal safety, property or other rights of the public, House of Mabango or its customers or employees.
The third parties to whom the personal data is made available are obliged to treat your personal data confidentially. If these parties are regarded as 'processors' within the meaning of the privacy legislation, we will ensure that a data processing agreement is concluded with these parties that meets the requirements set out in the GDPR.
Your personal data may be included in an acquisition of House of Mabango, in whole or in part; a sale of some or all of House of Mabango; a merger or merger involvement; during a bankruptcy; dissolution or other transition of our business. This means that your personal data may be transferred to a new owner or successor entity to ensure that our services can be continued.
In order to provide our services, it may be necessary for us to transfer your personal data to a recipient in a country outside the European Economic Area that offers a lower level of protection of personal data than that provided by European legislation. In that case House of Mabango will ensure that such a transfer of personal data is in accordance with applicable legislation, for example by concluding a model contract drawn up and approved for that purpose by the European Commission and we will assess whether any additional measures are necessary to guarantee an appropriate level of protection of your personal data. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you wish to receive more information about the appropriate or suitable safeguards in place for data transfers outside of the European Economic Area or if you would like to obtain a copy of them.
How long do we store your personal data?
We will not retain your personal data in an identifiable form for any longer than is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.
The personal data in our order administration will in principle be deleted at the latest two years after the order in question has been processed. The personal data used for website analysis are stored for a maximum of 24 months. The personal data in our service administration and client marketing database are retained for five years after closure of the client file. The e-mail address used for newsletter subscriptions is removed from our mailing list as soon as you choose to unsubscribe.
The personal data of suppliers will in principle be deleted at the latest two years after the order in question has been processed.
The personal data you provide to us for your job application will be retained for up to four weeks after the end of the application procedure. You can choose to provide us with your consent to retain your personal data for one year after the end of the application procedure. This enables us to reach out to you if job opportunities which may be of interest to you, become available. The personal data that you have provided in the context of your application will become part of your personnel file when you start working for House of Mabango.
In addition to the above mentioned retention periods, we may need to retain certain personal data in order to comply with statutory retention obligations, such as the retention of certain accounting data for 7 years from the end of the year in which the relevant data has lost their current importance for (tax) business operations in connection with our tax retention obligation arising from article 52 of the Dutch State Taxes Act.
The specific retention periods referred to above may become longer or legal retention periods may become applicable to which we need to comply. We may also retain personal data for a longer period of time if necessary for our legitimate interests, such as when necessary for settling legal disputes.
