Customer and marketing register of Simbiozo OU (the “Register”).
Simbiozo OU (“Simbiozo” or “we”), collects personal data of its customers, users and visitors of its websites and services whilst providing its services (jointly hereinafter the “Services”). To use the Services, you are required to register to Simbiozo by providing your contact information or via customer agreement. Some functions and sub-services of the Services may require more information to be provided, but this will be clearly stated and you will be requested to provide the extra information before you can use these certain services and functions.
This Privacy Policy governs the principles of storing and processing the personal data included in the Register. This Privacy Policy explains what data we process, how we do that and how you may use your rights as a data subject (e.g. right to object, right of access).
This Privacy Policy constitutes a description of the data file of the Register as set out in the Belgian Personal Data Act.
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time if required in order to reflect the changes in data processing practices or otherwise. You can find the current version on our website (www.Simbiozo.com).
The Privacy Policy does not address and we are not responsible for, the privacy practices of any third parties.
There are several purposes for the processing of your personal data by Simbiozo:
Simbiozo processes your personal data in the first place to be able to deliver our Services to you and to run, maintain and develop our businesses. We would like to know who you are, so we can tailor our Services to meet your needs and desires as precisely as possible. Some of the functions and services of the Services are simply unable to work properly if we do not know who is using them. If you contact our customer service, we will use the information provided by you to answer your questions or solve your complaint. In order to ensure that our Services are in line with your needs, this data can be used for things like customer satisfaction surveys. We might also request another party to do this for us.
Simbiozo processes your personal data to contact you regarding our Services and to inform you of changes to our Services. Your data is also used for research and analysis to improve our Services. We may also use your data entered to our Services in certain cases to send information and marketing communication by e-mail, provided that you have given us consent to that or other legitimate grounds for such marketing communication exists.
Simbiozo processes your personal data to perform our contractual obligations towards you and to comply with legal obligations. Furthermore, we process your personal data to pursue our legitimate interest to maintain and develop our businesses.
We store personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. Once the data is no longer necessary, we delete or anonymize it as soon as possible.
Simbiozo collects two types of information from our customers: (i) Customer Data; and (ii) Technical Data. Although we do not normally use Technical Data to identify you as an individual, you can sometimes be recognized from it. In such situations, Technical Data can also be considered personal data under applicable laws.
We may collect the following basic Customer Data and store it in the Register: (i) first and last name; (ii) e-mail address, telephone number, address and company; (iii) payment information and transactional data. In addition, we may collect the following data arising from the customer relationship: (i) information relating to maintaining the customer relationship; (ii) information on marketing permissions; and (iii) customer service data.
We may collect Customer Data from our customers and visitors in a variety of ways, including, when they register to our Services, when they submit customer feedback, claims or other communication or when they subscribe to a newsletter or fill out a form. Further, please note that we also collect details of any transactions and payments you carry out through our Services. We will collect Customer Data from customers and visitors only if they voluntarily submit such information to us or carry out transactions or payments through our Services. We may also update and supplement personal data with information provided by third parties in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
We and/or our authorized third party service providers, may automatically collect Technical Data when you visit or interact with our Services.

We do not share your personal data with third parties outside unless one of the following circumstances applies:
We may share your personal data with third parties if we have a good-faith belief that access to and use of the personal data is reasonably necessary to: (i) meet any applicable law, regulation, and/or court order; (ii) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; and/or (iii) protect the interests, properties or safety of Simbiozo, our users or the public as far as in accordance with the law. When possible, we will inform you about such processing.
If Simbiozo is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, we may transfer your personal data to the third party involved. However, we will continue to ensure the confidentiality of all personal data. We will give notice to all customers concerned before the personal data is transferred or becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
We may share your personal data with third parties outside Simbiozo for other reasons than the one mentions before, when we have your explicit consent to do so. You have the right to withdraw this consent at all times.

You may object to certain use of your personal data if such data is processed for other purposes than necessary for the performance of our Services or for compliance with a legal obligation. You may also object any further processing of your personal data after prior given consent. If you object to the further processing of your personal data, this may lead to fewer possibilities to use our Services.

If your request regards personal data in a cookie, you have to enclose a copy of the said cookie. We may request the provision of additional information necessary to confirm your identity.
