This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect, how we use it, how we protect it, when we may share it, and the rights you may have regarding your personal information.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide when you contact us, request information, submit an inquiry, register for an account, request a quotation, place an order, or otherwise communicate with us.

Depending on how you interact with our Website and services, this information may include your name, company name, email address, telephone number, billing or delivery information, business address, payment-related information, and the contents of communications or inquiries you submit.

We may also automatically collect certain technical information when you visit our Website, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, pages visited, approximate location, referring website, and information about how you interact with the Website.

2. How We Use Your Information

SafeChem Industrial BV may use personal information for legitimate business and operational purposes, including:

  • Responding to inquiries, requests, and quotation requests.
  • Providing and administering our products and services.
  • Processing and managing orders, payments, deliveries, and related transactions.
  • Communicating with customers, suppliers, and business partners.

Under applicable data-protection laws, including the GDPR where applicable, personal information should be processed for specified and legitimate purposes and only to the extent necessary for those purposes. (European Union)

3. Legal Bases for Processing

Where the GDPR applies, we process personal information only when an appropriate legal basis exists. Depending on the circumstances, this may include:

  • Contractual necessity – when processing is necessary to provide products or services, process an order, or perform a contract.
  • Legal obligation – when processing is necessary to comply with applicable laws or regulatory requirements.
  • Legitimate interests – when processing is necessary for legitimate business interests, provided those interests do not override applicable privacy rights.
  • Consent – where you have voluntarily provided consent for a specific processing activity, such as certain marketing communications or non-essential cookies.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal. (European Union)

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our Website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate correctly, remember preferences, understand Website usage, improve functionality, and, where applicable, support analytics or marketing activities.

Cookies may be categorized as:

  • Essential cookies, which are necessary for Website functionality.
  • Preference cookies, which remember settings and choices.
  • Analytics cookies, which help us understand how visitors use the Website.
  • Marketing cookies, where applicable, which may be used to provide relevant advertising or measure marketing effectiveness.

Where required by applicable law, we will request your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. You may manage available cookie preferences through your browser settings or any cookie-management tool provided on the Website.

5. Sharing Personal Information

We do not sell your personal information as part of our ordinary business operations.

We may share personal information with trusted third parties where reasonably necessary to operate our business or provide requested services. These parties may include payment processors, hosting and IT providers, website service providers, logistics and delivery providers, professional advisers, accounting providers, and other contractors or service providers acting on our behalf.

We may also disclose information where necessary to comply with a legal obligation, respond to lawful requests from authorities, protect our rights or property, investigate suspected fraud or misconduct, or protect the safety and security of our Website, business, customers, or others.

Where applicable, organizations processing personal information on our behalf should provide appropriate guarantees and operate under suitable contractual arrangements. (European Union)

6. International Data Transfers

Some of our service providers or business partners may process information in countries outside the country in which you are located.

Where personal information is transferred outside the European Economic Area and the GDPR applies, we will take appropriate steps to ensure that the transfer is subject to legally recognized safeguards, such as an adequacy decision or appropriate contractual safeguards, where required. (European Union)

7. Data Security

SafeChem Industrial BV takes reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, misuse, or destruction.

Security measures may include access controls, secure systems, authentication procedures, encryption where appropriate, monitoring, backups, and internal procedures designed to limit access to personal information to individuals who have a legitimate business need.

However, no method of transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted to or stored by us.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including fulfilling contractual, accounting, legal, regulatory, dispute-resolution, and legitimate business requirements.

The appropriate retention period may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected. When personal information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to securely delete, anonymize, or otherwise dispose of it where appropriate.

  • Request access to personal information we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
  • Request deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances.
  • Request restriction of processing in certain circumstances.
  • Object to certain types of processing.
  • Request portability of information where applicable.
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

These rights are subject to applicable legal limitations and exceptions. The GDPR recognizes rights including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and data portability. (European Union)

14. Important Notice

This Privacy Policy is intended as a general website privacy-policy template and should be customized to accurately reflect SafeChem Industrial BV’s actual business operations, technologies, cookies, payment providers, analytics services, marketing tools, data retention practices, and jurisdictions in which it operates.

If SafeChem Industrial BV is established in the EU or otherwise falls within the GDPR’s scope, the final policy should accurately identify the data controller, applicable legal bases, recipients, retention periods, international transfers, and relevant data-subject rights. EU guidance specifically emphasizes providing clear information about who processes personal data, why it is processed, the legal basis, recipients, retention, and applicable individual rights.
