Therefore, Pay.nl collects:

Pay.nl has its own privacy statement: https://www.pay.nl/privacybeleid

If I log on to their system (requiring an additional password), I am also able to see your bank account number.

Childbirth Class Gale also processes particular and sensitive personal data including:

  • due date
  • baby’s first name and surname, gender, date of birth and place of birth
  • brief summary of the birth, only if you shared this information with me.

How and why we process your personal data

Childbirth Class Gale processes your personal data for the following reasons:

  • In order to call or email you when needed to provide our services (reminders, handouts, invitations for events or invitations for a baby reunion)
  • To exchange contact details with Childbirth Class Gale group members to establish a network, but only after your permission
  • When we are legally obliged to do so, such as data required for our tax returns.

Automated decision-making process

Childbirth Class Gale does not take decisions based on automated processes about things that can have (considerable) consequences for people. This relates to decisions made by computer programs or systems, without the intervention of a colleague at Childbirth Class Gale.

How long and why we keep hold of personal data

Childbirth Class Gale keeps your personal records for two years in case the client has questions about the services being provided.

We sign a processor agreement with the companies that we commission to process your data to ensure the same level of confidentiality of your data.
