PRIVACY POLICY
The person responsible for processing is THOVA METALS NV (THOVA METALS), Leon Bekaertlaan 10, 3900 Pelt, registered with VAT number BE 1023.062.661. For questions about this statement and our policy, you can always contact us via info@thovametals.be. For questions that are more than a request for information, we may ask you to identify yourself, so we can be sure that we provide the requested information and data to the right person.
WHEN AND FOR WHAT PURPOSES DOES THOVA METALS COLLECT AND PROCESS YOUR DATA?
THOVA METALS collects and processes your data, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679, about you when you want to use our services as a customer or when you contact us in any other way (via the website). We summarize these activities under the heading “customer management” and concern, in particular, the execution of the projects that we conclude with you.
If you are a supplier, we process your data or those of your contact persons in the context of the delivery of products or services, for the general purpose of “supplier administration”. In that case, it is also possible that we include your data in our work schedule, together with the data of our own employees.
We also process your data, as a customer or as a supplier, when preparing invoices and other accounting documents. This is the purpose of “accounting”.
Finally, we may process your data because it is or may be important for our activities, for example, to be able to call on your advice or services. We describe these activities as “communication” or “public relations”.
WHAT DATA DOES THOVA METALS COLLECT AND PROCESS?
This concerns the data that you provide us with and that we need for the execution of the project for which you use our services, such as your name, address, email address, and professional data, such as company name and VAT number.
Usually, you provide us with this information directly, but it is also possible that we obtain this data from other parties with which you cooperate. The data may also relate to your interests or plans for a future project.
From suppliers, we may process certain data to plan the work properly. This concerns availability, attendance, and the type of work.
We process financial data in the context of accounting. Data about your position and activities are processed in the context of communication or public relations.
HOW DOES THOVA METALS COLLECT YOUR DATA?
We collect your data when you fill in forms (paper or electronic). Sometimes this happens through a conversation, phone contact, or email exchange. Normally, we obtain this information directly from you. Sometimes it is also possible that we obtain it indirectly.
This is the case with data about employees of suppliers who are active on our sites and which we obtain from the suppliers themselves. Where we have obtained your data, we will share this with you.
WHAT ARE THE LEGAL GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING OF DATA BY THOVA METALS?
In principle, we collect and process your data on the basis of the contractual relationship that we have with you as a result of your order and the contract that we conclude with you.
This is also the basis for the processing of data from suppliers and for the processing of “accounting”. Where the processing is not necessary for the execution of the contractual relationship, such as communication/public relations, this is based on our legitimate interests as a company.
ARE THE DATA COMMUNICATED TO THIRD PARTIES?
Your data is mainly processed internally within THOVA METALS. For certain services, they may be passed on to external processors, always under our control.
Sometimes we are legally obliged to pass on data to government agencies. In principle, your data is not passed on to third countries or international organizations.
YOUR RIGHTS
You can always inspect the data that we process about you and have it corrected or deleted. Simply submit a request via info@thovametals.be, with proof of your identity.
If you do not agree with the way THOVA METALS processes your data, you can submit a complaint to the Data Protection Authority.
