Exceptional and/or sensitive personal data that we process
It is not our intention to collect data via our website and/or service on website visitors who are younger than 16 years of age. Unless they have permission from their parents or guardian. However, we cannot check whether a visitor is over 16 years of age. We therefore recommend that parents are involved in their children’s online activities in order to prevent data from being collected about children without parental consent. If you believe that we have collected personal information about a minor without such consent, please contact us at contact@progresscommunications.eu. We will then delete this information.

Why we need data
Progress Communications processes your personal data for the following purposes:

  • For sending our newsletter and/or advertising leaflet.

  • To improve the website and to tailor the range of products and services to your preferences.
  • To tailor the products and services to your needs.

If the data are used for other purposes, we will report this to the data subjects. In all cases, the necessary measures will be taken to safeguard the privacy of data subjects. Only employees authorised for this purpose in the context of their position have access to the data. They have a duty of confidentiality towards others.

Principles on the basis of which we process personal data

  • Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with the data subject;
  • The processing takes place on the basis of a legal obligation;
  • The data subject has given his explicit consent for the processing. A data subject always has the right to withdraw his or her consent.
