Purpose of data processing

General purpose of the processing

We use your data solely for the purpose of our services. This means that the purpose of the processing is always directly related to the assignment you provide. We do not use your data for (targeted) marketing. If you share data with us and we use this data to contact you at a later time - other than at your request - we will explicitly ask for your permission. Your data is not shared with third parties, except to comply with accounting and other administrative obligations. These third parties are all bound by confidentiality based on the agreement between them and us or by an oath or legal obligation.

Automatically collected data

Data automatically collected by our website is processed with the aim of further improving our services. This data (such as your IP address, web browser, and operating system) is not personal data.

Cooperation in fiscal and criminal investigations

In cases where necessary, Ziemi services BV may be obligated to share your data due to a legal requirement related to fiscal or criminal investigations by the authorities. In such a situation, we are compelled to share your data, but we will resist it within the limits allowed by the law.

Retention periods

We will keep your data as long as you are a client of ours. This means that we will keep your customer profile until you indicate that you no longer wish to use our services. If you inform us of this, we will also consider it as a request to be forgotten. This also means that we will not keep your data for longer than two years from the last contact moment or transaction, unless there is a legal justification for it. Based on applicable administrative obligations, we are required to keep invoices with your (personal) data, so we will keep this data for as long as the applicable term runs. However, employees will no longer have access to your client profile and documents that we have produced as a result of your order.

Your rights

Under the current Dutch and European legislation, you as a data subject have certain rights regarding the personal data processed by or on behalf of us. We will explain below what these rights are and how you can invoke them. In principle, to prevent abuse, we only send copies of your data to your email address already known to us. In case you wish to receive the data at a different email address or by post, we will ask you to provide identification. We keep a record of processed requests, and in the case of a request for erasure, we keep anonymized data. All copies of data will be provided in the machine-readable data format used within our systems. You have the right at all times to file a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority if you suspect that we are using your personal data inappropriately.
