PLACEHOLDER

[DRAFT — this privacy policy must be legally reviewed and completed before launch.]

In short

We collect as little as possible. We don't sell your data and we don't use it to follow you across other websites. What we do keep, and why, is set out below.

1. Who we are

Kern Software, based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Chamber of Commerce number: [PLACEHOLDER]. Contact: [PLACEHOLDER — email address].

2. What we process

  • Data you give us yourself: your name, email address and whatever you write to us when you email or book a call.
  • Data created automatically when you visit the site, such as your IP address, browser and the pages you request. These sit in our hosting provider's server logs.
  • [PLACEHOLDER — analytics. State which analytics tool is used, or delete this point if none runs.]

3. Why we process it

  • To answer your question and schedule a call (performance of an agreement, or your request to enter into one).
  • To keep the site working and secure (legitimate interest).
  • [PLACEHOLDER — any other purposes, e.g. consent-based statistics.]

4. How long we keep it

We keep correspondence for as long as the question or the project needs, and after that no longer than [PLACEHOLDER — retention period]. Server logs are deleted after [PLACEHOLDER — retention period].

5. Who we share it with

Only with the parties needed to run the site and our communication: our hosting provider, our email provider and our scheduling provider. We have a data processing agreement with each of them. [PLACEHOLDER — name the parties and state whether any data is processed outside the EEA.]

6. Cookies

We use cookies that are needed to make the site work. [PLACEHOLDER — add detail if analytics or other cookies are set, including how to withdraw consent.]

7. Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to and port your data. Email [PLACEHOLDER — email address] and we'll respond as quickly as the law requires. If you disagree with how we handle it, you can complain to the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).

8. Security

We limit access to personal data to those who need it, use encrypted connections, and keep a record of who can reach what.

9. Changes

If this policy changes, we update the date at the top. For significant changes we tell the people it affects.
