The Website is committed to a minimal data collection approach. We do not intentionally request, store, or share personal information for other reasons than election campaigns.
As part of our hosting and through the use of third-party plugins and services, analytics tools, and social media buttons, certain information may be collected indirectly, including, but not limited to:
- Cookies and similar technologies
- Data collected by third-party services embedded in our Website
Below is an overview of the personal data we process through the website forms:

- IP address
- Other personal data that you actively provide, for example, by creating a profile on this website, in correspondence, and by phone
- Location data
- Information about your activities on our website
- Information about your browsing behavior across different websites (for example, because this company is part of an advertising network)
- List of customer contact details via an app

The purpose and basis on which we process personal data
The data can be processed separately or together with “VOOR U” for the following purposes:
- Sending newsletters and/or advertising brochures.
- To be able to call or email you if necessary to perform our services.
- To inform you about changes to our services and products.
- To analyze your behavior on the website to improve the website and tailor the range of products and services to your preferences.
- To follow your browsing behavior across different websites, which helps us tailor our products and services to your needs.
- To process personal data if we are legally obliged to do so, such as the data we need for our tax return.
Automated decision-making
We do not make decisions based on automated processing about matters that can have (significant) consequences for people. These decisions are made by computer programs or systems without a human being (such as those employed by “VOOR U” or any other service providers).
Use of Cookies and Analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to understand how you interact with our Website, improve your experience, and manage advertisements. We do not access or store personal data directly through these means. You have control over the use of cookies through your browser settings.
If you leave a comment on our Website, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience, so you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
Embedded Content
Our Website may include embedded content from third-party services. These services may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
We do not actively collaborate with third parties in data collection or sharing and only provide it if this is necessary for the execution of our agreement with you or to comply with a legal obligation. However, data collected indirectly by third-party services through our Website is subject to their respective privacy policies. Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Data Retention
We do not intentionally retain any personal data longer than is strictly necessary to achieve the purposes for which your data is collected.
Information received through contact forms is not shared with third parties but may be accessible by hosting and email providers.
If you leave a comment on an article, the comment and its metadata can be retained indefinitely. This is so the Website can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
User Rights
Under GDPR and other data protection laws, you have rights including:
- Access to your personal data
- Rectification of inaccurate data
- Erasure of your data (“right to be forgotten”)
- Restriction on processing of your data
You can exercise these rights by contacting us through the contact form on our Website.
Legal Compliance
We comply with legal obligations under GDPR and other applicable laws. In cases of legal requests or requirements, we may need to disclose data as mandated by law.
Children’s Privacy
Our Website is not intended for children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children. However, we cannot check if a visitor is over 16. We, therefore, recommend that parents be involved in their children’s online activities to prevent data about children from being collected without parental consent. If you believe that we have collected personal information about children without required consent, please contact us.
Changes to This Policy
We comply with legal standards, including GDPR, in our data practices. This policy may be updated periodically, and we encourage you to review it regularly.
