Qontent Matters has obtained your data because Qontent Matters has obtained your information from third parties. These third parties are: Direct Research – Onderzoeksbureau.
Under the European General Data Protection Regulation you have a number of rights with regard to your data and the processing thereof:
You may access your personal information and make any necessary changes in your account. If you would like to see which personal data Qontent Matters has obtained about you, you may exercise your right of access by submitting a request to Qontent Matters.
If you wish to make changes to the personal information that you have seen as a result of a request for access and you are unable to make the changes yourself in your account, you may request that Qontent Matters makes these changes for you. You may request that Qontent Matters modifies, corrects, supplements, erases or shields your information.
You also have the right, under certain conditions, to ask Qontent Matters to restrict the processing of your personal data.
If processing of your data takes place on the grounds of ‘legitimate interest’ by Qontent Matters or a third party, you have the right to object to that processing.
You have the right to obtain your personal data from Qontent Matters. Qontent Matters will provide this in a structured and commonly used format, which can easily be opened using commonly used digital systems.
When the legal basis for a particular processing is your explicit consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent. This does not affect past processing, but does mean that we will no longer be allowed to process this data in the future. It may also result in Qontent Matters no longer being able to provide you with certain services.
A request can be sent to hi@qontentmatters.nl. Qontent Matters will comply with your request as soon as possible and in any case no later than one (1) month after Qontent Matters has received such a request. If Qontent Matters rejects your request, we will indicate in our reply why the request was rejected.
It is possible that Qontent Matters is required to submit your data to a third party, for example to fulfil a legal obligation.
It may be necessary, for instance for technical and operational reasons, to transfer your (personal) data to affiliates of Qontent Matters located outside the European Economic Area. Due to the possibility that the regulations in the area of privacy protection do not offer the same protection as within the European Economic Area, Qontent Matters will use the Privacy Shield or the EU Model Clauses to protect your privacy as much as possible. If that is not possible, Qontent Matters will ask your consent to transfer your (personal) data to countries that do not maintain an adequate protection level. You may withdraw your consent at any time.

The cookies placed via Qontent Matters’s website cannot damage your device or the files stored on it.
