For questions about privacy or the processing of your personal data, you can contact us using the email address above.

We only process personal data when this is necessary for the operation of our website, to communicate with you, or to provide our services.

Depending on how you use our website, we may process the following information:

• your name;
• your email address;
• your telephone number, if you provide it;
• the content of a message or enquiry you send to us;
• any other personal data that you voluntarily provide;
• technical information relating to your visit to the website, such as device type, browser type, and certain technical information required for the operation and security of the website.

We ask you not to send sensitive personal data through a general contact form or email unless this is necessary and has been agreed with us in advance.

We may process personal data for the following purposes:

Contact and communication

When you contact us, we process your information to answer your question, message, or enquiry and, where necessary, to continue communicating with you.

Providing our services

When you make an enquiry or enter into an agreement with Zarah Boutique Concepts, we may process personal data where necessary to fulfil our agreements with you.

Website management and security

We may process limited technical information to ensure that the website functions properly, to resolve technical issues, and to prevent misuse or security incidents.

Improving the website

Where we use privacy-friendly analytical data, this information may be used to understand the general use of the website and to improve the website and user experience.

We only process personal data where there is a valid legal basis for doing so.

Depending on the situation, this may be because:

• the processing is necessary to perform a contract or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract;
• we have a legitimate interest, for example in answering business enquiries, securing our website, or improving our services;
• we are legally required to process or retain certain information;
• you have given your consent, where consent is required by law.

Where processing is based on your consent, you may generally withdraw that consent at any time.

We do not retain personal data for longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless we are legally required to retain it for a longer period.

Messages and contact details may, for example, be retained for as long as necessary to deal with your enquiry and any related follow-up communication.

Information that forms part of business administration may be retained for longer where this is necessary to comply with legal, administrative, or tax obligations.

When data is no longer required, it is deleted or anonymised.

We do not sell your personal data.

We may share personal data with external service providers where this is necessary for the operation of our website or the provision of our services.

These may include providers of:

• website hosting;
• technical support;
• email services;
• website management;
• security services;
• website analytics, where applicable.

Where an external party processes personal data on our behalf, we make appropriate arrangements where required to ensure that the data is handled carefully and securely.

We may also share personal data where we are legally required to do so.

Zarah Boutique Concepts takes appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, unwanted disclosure, and unlawful alteration.

Although we handle personal data carefully, no digital environment can provide an absolute guarantee of security.

If you believe that your data is not sufficiently protected or you suspect misuse, please contact us.

Under applicable privacy law, you have several rights regarding your personal data.

Depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to:

• access your personal data;
• have incorrect personal data corrected;
• request deletion of your personal data;
• request restriction of processing;
• object to certain types of processing;
• withdraw your consent where processing is based on consent;
• receive or transfer your data in certain circumstances.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at info@boutiqueconcepts.nl.

To prevent misuse, we may ask you to provide additional information so that we can verify your identity.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority if you believe that your personal data is not being processed correctly.

Cookies are small information files that may be stored on or read from your device when you visit a website.

Websites may also use similar technologies, such as local storage or other technical methods. For convenience, we use the general term “cookies” in this policy.

Functional and necessary cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function properly and securely.

They may, for example, be used for:

• essential website functionality;
• security;
• remembering necessary settings;
• ensuring that parts of the website load and function correctly.

Prior consent is generally not required for strictly necessary cookies.

Analytical cookies

The website may use analytical technologies to gain insight into the general use of the website.

Where such technologies are configured in a way that has only a limited impact on privacy, they may be used to understand:

• the number of visits to the website;
• which pages are viewed most often;
• general technical performance;
• how the website can be improved.

Where required by law, consent will be requested before such cookies are used.

Marketing and tracking cookies

If Zarah Boutique Concepts uses marketing, advertising, or tracking technologies in the future that can be used to follow visitors, these technologies will not be activated before consent has been obtained where this is required by law.

This may include advertising pixels, remarketing technologies, or other systems that track individual browsing behaviour.

Certain parts of the website may be provided by external service providers.

Depending on the technical setup, these third parties may use their own cookies or similar technologies.

Where this results in the use of non-essential cookies or the processing of personal data for tracking or marketing purposes, prior consent will be requested where required.

The external services used may change depending on the current technical setup of the website.

Where the website uses cookies that require consent, you can manage your preferences through the available cookie settings.

You can also withdraw or change your previously given consent through the cookie settings on the website.

In addition, you can delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Please note that this may affect the proper functioning of certain parts of the website.

Zarah Boutique Concepts may update this Privacy & Cookie Policy when the website, services, technologies used, or applicable laws and regulations change.
