What personal data we collect and why we collect it

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection and prevention.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a "hash") may be provided to the Gravatar service (your profile picture) to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service's privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you are a registered user and upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download images from the website and extract any location data from them.

Cookies

When you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you don't have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Cookies login

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

When you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. This cookie expires after 1 day.

Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some features and services on our and other websites may not function properly if cookies are disabled in your browser.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics

We perform analyses and measurements to gain insight into how our website is used. For example, we analyze data about your visits to our sites to determine, among other things, how many visitors we welcome, which pages they visit, which products are viewed most, and how you found us, for example, through the Google search engine or similar methods.

How long do we retain your data?

When you leave a comment on Bestbud.nl, that comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This way, we can automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of moderating them. Or we can help you if you have questions about your order.

For users who have registered on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can, however, delete this information upon request.

When you place an order, we receive your address information so we can ship it. Once we've processed your order, we retain your data for up to two weeks to handle any complaints.

What happens to your data?

When you place an order on Bestbud.nl or create an account, we send this data to our database via a secure server. No one else has access to this information except us at Bestbud.nl.

How do we protect your data?

Bestbud.nl will never share or sell personal information to third parties.

We restrict access to personal data only to employees of Bestbud.nl for the correct processing of orders.

Your data is stored 100% encrypted in our databases.
