The Bridge Club ("we", "us") respects the privacy of visitors to this website (thebridgeclub.xyz). This privacy policy explains what data is processed through the website, why, and what rights you have.
1. Who is responsible
‍  The Bridge Club Den Haag, The Netherlands Website: thebridgeclub.xyz Email: [insert contact email address]
‍  ‍We are the data controller for the data processed through this website.
‍  ‍2. What data we process
‍  This website does not have a contact form, newsletter sign-up, or any other way for you to actively submit data to us. We therefore do not collect any personal data that you actively enter.
‍  ‍However, the website uses Squarespace as its hosting and website platform. Squarespace collects certain data from visitors by default, including:
  • IP address
  • Browser and device type
  • Pages visited and time of visit
  • Referring website (how you arrived at our site)
  • Cookie data (see below)
‍  ‍This data is collected through Squarespace's built-in analytics functionality, not through a separate tool such as Google Analytics.
‍  ‍3. Cookies
‍  Squarespace places cookies that are necessary for the website to function and for basic statistics (such as visitor numbers and pages viewed). For more information on exactly which cookies Squarespace uses, please refer to Squarespace's cookie policy.
‍  ‍4. Transfer of data outside the EU
‍  ‍Squarespace, Inc. is a US-based company. This means data collected through the website may be processed outside the EU (in the US). Squarespace applies appropriate safeguards for this transfer, such as participation in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and/or Standard Contractual Clauses, as required under the GDPR. More information can be found in Squarespace's privacy policy.
‍  ‍5. Purpose of processing
‍  ‍The data collected via Squarespace is used exclusively to:
  • ensure the website functions properly;
  • gain insight into visitor numbers and page views, so we can improve the website.
‍  ‍We do not use this data for marketing purposes, profiling, or sharing with third parties beyond Squarespace.
‍  ‍6. Retention period
‍  ‍Data is retained for as long as necessary for the purposes stated above, or for as long as Squarespace retains it under its own retention policy.
‍  ‍7. Your rights
‍  ‍Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to:
  • request access to the data processed about you;
  • request correction or deletion of your data;
  • object to the processing;
  • file a complaint with the relevant data protection authority (in the Netherlands: the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl).

‍  ‍8. Changes
‍  ‍We may update this privacy policy from time to time, for example due to changes to the website or legislation. The most recent version will always be available on this page.
