What we collect

This website does not use analytics, advertising, or tracking cookies. Our web server keeps standard technical access logs (IP address, requested page, timestamp, user agent) for security and operational purposes; these are retained for a limited period and not used for profiling.

When you contact us by email or phone, we process the contact details and message content you provide, solely to respond to and handle your enquiry and any subsequent engagement. Client data is processed only as necessary to deliver contracted services and to meet our legal (including tax) obligations.

Legal basis and retention

We process data on the basis of legitimate interest (operating and securing this website, responding to enquiries), performance of a contract, and legal obligation (e.g. the seven-year Dutch fiscal retention duty for administrative records). Data is not sold or shared with third parties except where required to deliver our services or by law.

Your rights

You have the right to access, rectify, or erase your personal data, to restrict or object to processing, and to data portability. To exercise these rights, contact us at jim@coleconsulting.nl. You may also lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).
