We process personal data when providing our services. This privacy statement sets out what personal data Micemedia collects and uses and how we handle them. We advise you to read this privacy statement carefully.
Applicability
This privacy statement applies to all personal data processing by or in the name of Micemedia.
Handling of your personal data
Micemedia sets great store by your privacy and handles your personal data with as much care and as safely as possible. Micemedia complies with the privacy regulations in that regard.
Micemedia records personal data when providing its services. It does so, for instance when you request information via our website, contact us for a proposal, apply for a job that may be posted on our website or when you are otherwise in contact with Micemedia. They may be personal data, but also data that we use to analyze the use made of our websites, such as the number of times our website is visited and which pages are performing best.
Content of this privacy statement
This privacy statement sets out what personal data of yours we may process. Those personal data are dependent on the services that you use and the information that you leave behind on our websites.
For your convenience we differentiate between the processing of personal data for a number of specific services of Micemedia and the use of our websites and social media channels. In this part, general information is provided on the processing of your personal data that applies to all those services and to the processing of personal data via our websites and via social media channels
Legal basis for data processing
Micemedia uses the personal data listed under the buttons for the performance and settlement of an agreement. Micemedia may also be required by law to process your personal data, for instance by tax legislation.
Micemedia may also use your personal data on the grounds of legitimate business interests. Those interests include the provision of sound services, the security of buildings and systems, the efficiency of internal operations, the generation of income, the protection of financial interests, and the informing of customers of (new) products and services of Micemedia.
If Micemedia processes personal data on the basis of your permission, it requests that permission separately. You may withdraw your permission at any time, but the data processed until that time will then have been lawfully processed.
Transfer outside the EU
Your personal data may be transferred to countries outside the EU in respect of the organization of international exhibitions and events. It is possible that those countries, such as the USA, do not offer the same level of protection as that which applies within Europe. Micemedia takes appropriate measures in that case.
Personal data may furthermore be processed outside the EU because certain service providers of Micemedia are located outside the EU, such as Microsoft and Mailchimp. Your data may furthermore be stored by third parties outside the EU on the grounds of the use of services of Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. All of those parties are EU-US Privacy Shield registered, ensuring an adequate level of protection for the processing of personal data. However, the EU-US Privacy Shield has been declared invalid by the ruling of the European Court of Justice on July 16th 2020. In order to ensure that the personal data processed outside the EU maintains the same equivalent level of protection, we are investigating which necessary and appropriate measures to take.

Analytical cookies
We use analytical cookies to enable us to adjust our websites to the wishes and interests of the visitors.
Micemedia uses Google Analytics of Google Inc. (“Google”). Via Google Analytics we obtain information on the manner in which our website is used. The information consists of user statistics, such as the number of different visitors, the pages frequently visited and the average duration of a visit. We do so on the basis of the “Privacy-Friendly Way to Use Google Analytics” handbook of the Dutch Data Protection Authority. This means that we have instructed Google to remove the last three digits of your IP address (so that it is difficult to trace the IP address to a specific visitor) and we have disabled Google’s standard data sharing settings.
Micemedia has furthermore entered into a data processing agreement with Google. We do not use other Google services in combination with the Google Analytics cookies. The limited information that is shared with Google when Google Analytics is used is transferred to and stored by Google on servers in the USA. Google is affiliated with the EU-US Privacy Shield, which guarantees an appropriate level of protection regarding the processing of personal data. However, the EU-US Privacy Shield has been declared invalid by the ruling of the European Court of Justice on July 16th 2020. In order to ensure that the personal data processed by Google maintains the same equivalent level of protection, we are investigating which necessary and appropriate measures to take.
