Security and storage
We take appropriate measures to prevent misuse, loss, unauthorized access and other undesirable acts with personal data. For example, we store personal data in systems with limited access and use encryption. These measures are included in our security policy.

The collected personal data is not kept longer than necessary. We remove personnel data two years after termination of employment, unless we are required to comply with a (longer) retention period by law.

We've taken security measures including:

  1. The Fritom Group has outsourced the management of its IT infrastructure to an IT service provider (ISO 9001, ISO / IEC 27001 and NEN7510 certified).
  2. The Fritom Group's IT infrastructure is housed on a private cloud in a 24-hour secured data center in the Netherlands.
  3. Data is stored according to a backup schedule which limits the damage in the event of unintentional destruction or deterioration of the data.
  4. The IT infrastructure is equipped with up-to-date antivirus and malware software that is applied to various layers of technology.
  5. The Fritom Group has an authorization policy whereby only those authorized by their role or function have access to the system and the necessary data, for the period necessary.
  6. Remote access to our IT infrastructure is secured with secure passwords that need to be changed periodically. The software with which remote access takes place contains measures against unwanted access, such as limiting the number of login attempts per unit of time.
  7. Software suppliers only have access to the part of the system where they need to perform their work. Access is explicitly limited to the period in which the work takes place and is only possible with the permission of the IT Manager responsible for the data processing at the Fritom Group.
  8. Changes in the IT infrastructure take place according to the change procedure and are recorded by means of a Request for Change form.
  9. Security incidents are reported centrally, recorded in a notification system and handled with the IT service provider according to regular incident management.
  10. The local (wireless) network of the Fritom Group is equipped with various security measures (firewall, monitoring systems, etc.).
  11. Employees who come into contact with sensitive personal data in the course of their work have signed a confidentiality agreement.

Data sharing outside the EU
If personal data is transferred to a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA), there must be a security level comparable to the security level under the GDPR (see also the explanatory notes to Annex 3 of the Register).

To ensure this, there are the following possibilities:

  1. transmission on the basis of an adequacy decision of the European Commission;
  2. transfer based on appropriate safeguards, where a country or organization has not been identified as adequate by the European Commission, transfer may take place if the controller and the processor (provably) provide appropriate safeguards and enforceable rights and remedies for the person concerned (s);
  3. transfer based on the explicit consent of the person concerned, whereby the person concerned has been informed about the risks, or if there is a situation of necessity.

Data sharing to the US
The European Commission (EC) has established a regulation for the transfer of personal data to the United States (US). This regulation is called the EU-US privacy shield. The purpose of the privacy shield is to provide a level of protection in the exchange of personal data with the US that is broadly equivalent to the level within the European Union (EU).

The privacy shield will replace the Safe Harbour agreement, which the European Court of Justice declared invalid on October 6, 2015. Every organization in the US that is certified under the privacy shield will have an adequate level of protection (for the duration of the certification). This means that organizations from Europe are allowed to transfer personal data to these organizations in the US.

Does the Fritom Group share personal data with third parties?
We only share personal data with third parties if this is necessary for the performance of an agreement or to comply with a legal obligation. Agreements are made with organizations that process your data on behalf of our company to ensure that your data is properly secured there as well. We also use cloud services where data is stored on a server abroad. We only do this if there is an adequate level of data protection.

Your rights
You have the right to object to the processing of your data, to revoke previously given consent and you have the right to access, correct or delete your data. If necessary, you can also ask the Fritom company concerned to limit the processing of your personal data or to transfer your data to yourself or to a third party.

If you wish to make use of (one of) these rights or if you have any questions about how we deal with privacy and personal data. Please contact us at fg@fritom.nl or contact our data protection officer (FG), Mr. R. Beuving, directly.

Do you have a complaint about the way we process personal data? If so, please contact Fritom Group via the contact details above. In the unlikely event that we cannot resolve the matter with you, you can submit a complaint to the supervisory authority, the Personal Data Authority.

A request is free of charge. However, where requests from a person concerned are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of their repetitive nature, the Fritom company to which the request is addressed may charge a reasonable fee in the light of the administrative costs involved in the request or refuse to execute the request.

The Fritom company to which the request is addressed shall provide the party concerned with information on the action taken in response to the claim within one month of receipt of the claim.

If the claimant submits a request because certain recorded data is incorrect or incomplete, he or she has an interest in the termination of the processing that outweighs that of the organization, or the processing is not (or no longer) necessary in view of the objective of the Fritom Group privacy regulations, or is contrary to these regulations, the data protection officer shall take a written decision on behalf of the data controller within one month after the person concerned has submitted this request.

Depending on the complexity of the requests and the number of requests, this period may be extended by another two months if necessary. The Fritom company concerned shall inform the claimant concerned of any such extension within one month. Where the claimant submits its request electronically, the information shall, where possible, be provided electronically, unless the person concerned requests otherwise.

If the Fritom company in question has doubts about the identity of the claimant, it will ask the claimant as soon as possible to provide further details of his or her identity or to submit a valid proof of identity in writing. This request suspends the time limit until the requested proof has been provided.

If the Fritom company in question does not wish to comply with an application as referred to above, it shall notify the party concerned in writing, stating its reasons, within one month after receipt of the application.

Revision of privacy policy
We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy. We will post any revised versions on this website. If a revised version is published, we will provide a clear notification with information about the most significant changes. We will also indicate when the policy was last modified.
