Protecting your privacy when processing personal data is very important to us and we take account of this in our business processes.

Collection and processing of personal data.

When you visit our website, our web servers will normally store details of your browser and operating system, the website from which you visit our website, the pages that you visit on our website, the date of your visit, and, for security reasons, e.g. to identify attacks on our website, the IP address assigned to you by your internet service provider. Apart from the IP address, personal data is only stored if you choose to submit it to us, e.g. when registering, in a survey, in a competition or in connection with the performance of an agreement.

Use and passing on of personal data and limitation of use to specific circumstances

Van der Heijden Yachts uses your personal data only to the extent necessary for the technical administration of the website, for customer management, for product surveys, and for marketing purposes.

Personal data is transferred to state organizations and authorities only to the extent required by mandatory national provisions of law. We have placed our employees, agencies and dealers under a duty of confidentiality.

Opt-out

We would like to use your data to enable us to inform you about our products and services and, if applicable, to ask you about them. Of course, participation in such activities is voluntary. If you do not wish to take part, you can notify us at any time so that we can exclude your data accordingly.

Social plugins

Van der Heijden Yachts uses so-called social plugins (‘buttons’) for social networks such as Facebook, Google+ and Twitter.

When you visit our websites these buttons are deactivated by default, i.e. without your intervention they will not send any data to the respective social networks. Before you are able to use these buttons, you must activate them by clicking on them. They then remain active until you deactivate them again or delete your cookies (please refer to ‘Cookies’).

Cookies

Once activated, a direct link to the server of the respective social network is established. The contents of the button are then transmitted from the social network directly to your browser which incorporates it in the website.

Once a button is activated, the social network can retrieve data, independently of whether you interact with the button or not.

We have no influence on the scope of data that is collected by the social networks through their buttons. The data use policies of the social networks provide information on the purpose and extent of the data that they collect, how this data is processed and used, the rights available to you and the settings that you can use to protect your privacy.
