Retention period
Kolmer retains customer data for as long as it relates to an active/purchasing customer. Even after termination of the active customer relationship, a number of data from the customer database is subject to a tax retention obligation. This means that the Tax Authorities oblige Kolmer to retain the data for a specific period. The retention period for these data is seven (7) years.
If the retention period has expired, the customer data will be deleted and destroyed within one year.
Access and rectification
A customer has the right to take note of the processed data relating to them. The requested access and/or requested copy will be granted or provided respectively as soon as possible, but no later than within four weeks.
The customer has the right to request the destruction or modification of data traceable to the person in question. To this end, the person concerned must submit a written and substantiated request to Kolmer. Within one month after submission, the customer will be notified in writing of the substantiated decision.
