Information Sharing and Third Parties
We're selective about who we share your information with. Here's when and why we might share your data:
We work with trusted companies that help us deliver our services, including email marketing platforms, payment processors, and website hosting providers. These partners only receive the minimum information needed to perform their specific functions and are contractually bound to protect your data.
We may disclose your information if required by Belgian or EU law, court orders, or regulatory requests. We'll notify you about such requests unless legally prohibited from doing so.
If our business is acquired or merged, your information may transfer to the new entity. You'll be notified of any such changes and have options regarding your data.
We never sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. Your trust is more valuable than any potential revenue from data sales.

We take reasonable steps to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction. Our security measures include:
- Encrypted data transmission using SSL/TLS protocols
- Regular security updates and monitoring of our systems
- Limited access to personal data on a need-to-know basis

Some of our service providers are located outside Belgium or the EU. When we transfer your data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as:
- Adequacy decisions by the European Commission
- Standard contractual clauses approved by the EU
- Certification schemes and codes of conduct
For example, our email marketing platform may process data in the United States under appropriate data transfer agreements. We regularly review these arrangements to maintain your privacy protection.
