How your details are used.
Short version: what you send through the contact form is used to reply to you, and for nothing else.
Who is responsible
Aventix Consulting, The Netherlands. KVK 42191367, BTW NL005567477B70. Contact: z.sarfraz@aventixconsulting.com.
What is collected
When you use the contact form, the following is sent to me by email: your name, work email, company (if given), the type of organisation you selected, the topics you ticked, and anything you wrote in the message field. The server also records the time and the IP address the form was sent from, to help filter spam.
The website itself sets no cookies and uses no analytics or tracking. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser requests the font files from Google's servers; see Google's privacy policy.
Why and on what basis
Your details are used to answer your inquiry and, if we go on to work together, to prepare a proposal and agreement. The legal basis is the steps taken at your request before entering into a contract (GDPR art. 6(1)(b)) and my legitimate interest in responding to business inquiries (art. 6(1)(f)).
How long it is kept
Inquiry emails are kept for as long as needed to handle the inquiry and for up to two years afterwards, unless we enter into a contract, in which case the details become part of the client records and are kept for the statutory retention period (seven years under Dutch tax law).
Who it is shared with
Nobody, apart from the email and hosting provider that delivers and stores the messages (Namecheap). Your details are not sold or passed to third parties for marketing.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct, or delete the details I hold about you, or object to their use, by emailing z.sarfraz@aventixconsulting.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Dutch data protection authority, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.
