– restrict our collection of personal data to only the personal data necessary for those
purposes;
– We will first ask for permission to process your personal data in cases where your
permission is required;
– Take appropriate security measures to protect your personal data and also require this
from third parties that process personal data on our behalf;
– respect your right to provide, correct or delete your personal data on your request.

The Foundation is responsible for data processing. In this privacy statement we explain
which personal data we collect and use and for what purposes. This privacy statement was
updated on 20-05-2018 to comply with the GDPR.

longer term.
