Be-Rex B.V. values protecting your privacy. The personal data we obtain and/or collect will be processed in accordance with the law and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

For example, we will not provide the personal data to third parties without your explicit consent, unless we are (legally) obliged to do so. Be-Rex B.V. will handle your personal data with care and has taken appropriate technical and organisational measures to secure your personal data.

What personal details do we collect and why?

Be-Rex B.V. processes your personal data when it is necessary for its activities, for example to be able to execute an agreement with you. This could include your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and, in case of payment, financial data that can be traced back to you as a person.

Be-Rex B.V. also collects data from visitors to its website www.be-rex.com, only via analytical and functional cookies (see further under: "Use of cookies").

We use your personal data for the following purposes:

  • Performing activities in the framework of an agreement;
  • Administration and declaration of the work performed;
  • Improving the quality;
  • To prevent fraud (verify identity);
  • To execute a legal obligation;
  • Marketing activities / newsletter;
  • Comply with legal obligations.
Who are involved with the processing of your personal data and who do we share such information with?

The Be-Rex BV employees have access to your personal data with the execution of the activities. Access to personal data is only possible if this is necessary for the employee to perform his or her work.

In the future, Be-Rex B.V. may use third parties to support its business organisation, where personal data is processed. If Be-Rex B.V. will engage such "processors", Be-Rex B.V. Will conclude an agreement in which we agree, among other things, that your personal data will be sufficiently protected.

Unless there is direct marketing in which Be-Rex B.V. has a legitimate interest, Be-Rex B.V. will not provide your personal data to third parties. Except with your express consent. In that case you have the right to withdraw your consent, see paragraph 6 below.

However, Be-Rex B.V. in certain cases are (legally) obliged to provide your personal data to third parties. Your personal data may be processed within countries of the European Economic Area (EEA). No processing of your personal data takes place outside the EEA.

What security measures do we take & obligation to report data leaks

Be-Rex B.V. has taken appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against loss or against any form of unlawful processing (hacking).

All information is treated confidentially and is stored on secure servers, and Be-Rex B.V. has, among other things, ensured encryption of data and encrypted communication and confidential treatment of the data.

Persons acting on behalf of Be-Rex B.V. who have access to your data are, as indicated above, bound to secrecy, and Be-Rex B.V. requires the same technical and organisational measures from its processors and has laid this down in processing agreements.

Any data leaks will be documented and reported (in a timely manner) to the Dutch Data Protection Authority and, where necessary, to you personally in cases where this is necessary under the GDPR and/or other legislation.

How long do we store your data?

Be-Rex B.V. does not store the data longer than necessary for the purpose for which the personal data was obtained, unless retention of this data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation of Be-Rex B.V.

What are your rights?

Under the GDPR, you as a data subject have the following rights:

  • The right to request information about the processing of your personal data;
  • The right to have your personal data transferred to another party (data portability);
  • The right to amend your personal data;
  • The right to withdraw your consent;
  • The right to have your data deleted if the data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was obtained or if you withdraw your consent. You do not always have the right to have data removed, exceptions may apply;
  • The right to restricting the processing;
  • The right to object against the processing;
  • The right to submit a complaint to the Dutch Data Protection Authority if you believe that Be-Rex B.V. acts in violation of the applicable privacy rules.

Be-Rex considers it important to point out that the rights described above are not absolute rights and that under certain circumstances Be-Rex cannot comply with a particular request. We will assess each request individually based on the concrete circumstances, and if Be-Rex cannot respond to a specific request, it will inform you about this and state reasons.

If you do not agree with our decision, you can submit a complaint to the Dutch Data Protection Authority or submit it to the court. The right to object to the use of data for (direct) marketing purposes is, however, absolute and we will accept a request to no longer receive advertising messages from Be-Rex.
