Article 0: EU Regulation (GDPR/AVG)
On 25 May 2018, the new general EU Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) entered into force, tightening the rules for companies on the storage and processing of personal (customer) data. From now on, this will apply throughout Europe.
With this renewed General Conditions we want to inform you about our privacy policy and how we use your data. If you have any questions about this, you can of course always ask them by telephone or email.
You do not have to do anything else.
How do we use your data?
At Salon Partners we always handle your details with care. In doing so, we only ask for the information necessary to perform our services.
Sometimes we may share certain data with other parties, such as suppliers to deliver material on location. Again, we only share the necessary information.
We will never store your data unnecessarily. The basic principle is that we only store personal data for the purpose of the necessary processing and comply with the applicable laws and regulations.
At the end of the customer relationship we will destroy or anonymize the customer data. Or sooner, if an objection is made to direct marketing or if permission for this is withdrawn.
For this reason, the conditions for the processing of personal data have been modified. Without consent to the new conditions, no commercial messages or newsletters will be sent as of 25 May 2018.
Placing an order and/or follow-up order implies that you are in agreement with the new conditions and that you wish to receive or continue to receive information about our special offers, benefits and news and to remain a subscriber to our newsletters.
If you do not agree with the new conditions for your processing of personal data, please let us know.
