We would like to draw your attention to the fact that we will collect and use any personal information you provide to us because this will be necessary to enter into and execute any agreement with you. This applies to both (potential) customers and parties with whom we purchase goods and/or services.

If you are a (potential) customer of ours, we will use your data to send you a quotation, to be able to determine which specifications or requirements a specific item or service has to meet, to be able to deliver goods or carry out work for you, to provide you with invoices, and to communicate with you smoothly and efficiently about the execution aspects of the agreement.

If you are a (potential) supplier or other contractor, your personal details are also necessary for entering into and executing the agreement. In terms of purchasing, this is necessary to let you know which specifications or requirements a particular item or service must comply with, to send you a request for a quotation or to place an order with you, to pay your invoices, and to communicate with you about other aspects of the agreement quickly and efficiently.

You are not obliged to provide us with your personal data. If you provide us with insufficient or wrong personal data, it is possible we will be unable to perform the aforementioned activities.

Transfer to third parties

In connection with the execution of a possible agreement with you, it is possible that we may be required to provide your personal data to those parties who supply parts, materials and products to us or who carry out work on our behalf. In addition, we use server space for the storage of (parts of) our sales and purchasing administration, of which your personal data will form a part. For this reason, your personal data will be provided to our server space provider. We also use Microsoft Office and its associated storage options for emails and other files. Because we use a newsletter mailing service, your personal data will be passed on to the provider of this service.
