How we protect your privacy on Babycare.nl when you use our services
Babycare.nl cares about your privacy. This is why we only process data that we need to perform and improve our services to you. This data is not only essential to run our services, but also critical for the safety of our services and all customers.
This policy explains what information is collected, why it is collected, and how we use it.
Information we collect
Most of the personal data we collect is directly provided by our users when they register and use our services. Other data is collected by recording interactions with our services.
Account & Contact Data: When you place an order on our website, subscribe to a service (Babycare's newsletter, etc.), contact our Customer Support by e-mail, Instant Messaging or telephone, or when you fill in one of our contact forms, you voluntarily give us certain information. This typically includes your name, email address, and sometimes your phone number, postal address (when an invoice or delivery is required), as well as a personal password.
We never record or store credit card information or payment passwords (PIN-codes, etc.) from our customers, and always rely on trusted third-party PCI-DSS-compliant payment processors (please see below: 'Third Party Service Providers') for all payment processing.

We only ever collect this information on your behalf, and you always retain ownership and full control on this data.
Browser Data: When you visit our website, we detect and store your browser language and geolocation, in order to customize your experience according to your country and preferred language.

E-mail tracking: A successful delivery of an e-mail is directly registered at the Babycare servers and is not shared with any third party. You can block this kind of e-mail tracking by prohibiting your e-mail program to show embedded images. This delivery tracking information however is a great help for Babycare staff to assess any e-mail related communication issues.
