Eurotag is committed to implementing appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised or unlawful processing and from accidental loss, destruction or damage to your personal data.

As described earlier in the privacy policy, we may disclose your personal data to third parties (see section 7 - Sharing your personal data). If Eurotag does transfer your personal information to a third party, we require that they have the technical and organisational measures in place to protect your data. However, in some cases we are required by law to provide your personal information to a third party, such as a customs office, and we have limited control over how your information is protected by that party.

The information you provide to us will be held in our systems located on our premises or on the premises of third parties. In addition, we may provide third parties with access to your information on the condition that they operate in accordance with the purposes described in our privacy policy or other approved purposes.

Your personal data can always be accessed and processed by our employees located outside the jurisdiction of the GDPR. Your data will always remain within Europe.

6. Cookies and other tracking technologies

We use technologies such as cookies, pixels or tracking software to analyse how visitors use our website. This allows us to optimise our services to provide you with the most relevant content. Please note that we cannot identify you from the information we collect with these technologies.

In order to optimise the design and layout of our website and improve your experience, we use software to track user traffic patterns and website usage. This software does not allow us to collect any personal data.

To understand how customers respond to our emails and the content we send them, we use pixels. By using pixels, we can find out whether our sent emails are opened and whether the content of these emails is displayed in text or html form.

We also use cookies on our website and in our emails. Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. They help your computer to remember things like your login and language choice. This makes it easier for you to use our website. You can delete certain cookies if you wish. Most functions of the Eurotag website remain available when you delete cookies. However, some cookies are necessary in order to view or navigate our website.

You can find more information about our cookie usage and how to delete cookies in the cookie policy.

7. Sharing your personal data

We may share your personal data with other companies within our group.

Your data will be distributed or obtained via the following categories and/or third parties:

We share your personal data with companies that help us with accounting, IT infrastructure, mailings, website and webshop. In addition, we disclose your data to companies who help us to obtain feedback on our services.

Eurotag always selects its partners who receive your personal data carefully and requires them to comply with high security standards for the protection of your information. Your data will only be passed on when necessary (e.g. in case of a troubleshooting to the IT department) and with the minimum of information (e.g. only your email address to the mailing provider).

  • Credit card and debit card companies

We may need to share some of your personal information with companies that handle electronic payment transactions on our behalf. We may also share your information with our fraud screening partner to ensure the security of your transactions and to detect fraudulent transactions.

  • Authorities

We may disclose your personal data when required by a law to which Eurotag is subject.

  • Links

Our website provides links to third party websites, such as Facebook, which have their own privacy policies. Our privacy policy does not apply there and Eurotag is not responsible for the information that third parties may collect through these websites.

Our service providers are under no circumstances allowed to use your personal data for any purpose other than that for which they have been commissioned. For example, they may not send you a mailing in their own name using the information we have provided to them.
