2. What data we process

We process personal data that you provide to us through our contact form. This includes:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Company name (if provided)
  • Phone number (if provided)
  • The content of your message

If you have consented to analytics cookies, we also process anonymised usage data through Google Analytics 4, including:

  • Pages visited and session duration
  • Device and browser type (anonymised)
  • Country of origin (based on IP address, which is not stored)

3. Purposes and legal bases

We process your data for the following purposes:

  • Responding to contact requests — legal basis: performance of a contract or legitimate interest.
  • Website analytics — legal basis: consent (you can refuse analytics cookies through our cookie banner).

4. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how our website is used. GA4 places cookies on your device only with your consent. We have enabled IP anonymisation, so your full IP address is not stored.

Google processes the data as a sub-processor under the data processing agreement we have concluded with Google. More information is available in Google’s privacy policy.

You can withdraw your consent to analytics cookies at any time through the cookie banner at the bottom of our website, or by changing your browser settings.

5. Retention periods

We do not keep your personal data longer than necessary for the purposes for which it was collected:

  • Contact form data: up to 12 months after your request has been handled.
  • Analytics data (Google Analytics): in line with the default settings of Google Analytics 4 (14 months).

6. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right of access — you can ask which data we process about you.
  • Right to rectification — you can have incorrect data corrected.
  • Right to erasure — you can request that your data be deleted.
  • Right to restriction — you can request that processing be restricted.
  • Right to data portability — you can request your data in a commonly used format.
  • Right to object — you can object to processing based on legitimate interest.
  • Right to withdraw consent — you can withdraw consent you have given at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of earlier processing.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@gitcity.nl. We respond to your request within 30 days.

If you believe your personal data is being processed unlawfully, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens) via autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl.

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against loss, theft or unauthorised access. Our website uses HTTPS encryption for all data transfers.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to comply with changes in laws and regulations or in our services. The date of the latest change is shown at the top of this document. We recommend that you consult this policy periodically.
