Privacy notice

This notice explains what information we collect through this website, why we use it and the choices you have about your personal data.

01

Who is responsible for your data

ECDSIC’s website is managed by Citeel through 4-Soft B.V., Kabelweg 57, 1014 BA Amsterdam, The Netherlands. 4-Soft B.V. is responsible for the personal data described in this notice. You can contact us about privacy at info@ecdsic.com.

02

Information we collect

When you submit the enquiry form, we collect your name, organisation, work email address, optional telephone number, enquiry category and message. We also record that you accepted this notice. When you visit the website or submit the form, our website, analytics and security providers may process limited technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, approximate location, pages visited, referring page and the date and time of your request.

03

How and why we use your information

We use the information you provide to respond to your enquiry, route it to the appropriate ECDSIC or Citeel contact, continue related business communication and take steps you request before a possible partnership or other business relationship. We process form submissions with your consent and, where applicable, to take steps at your request before entering into an agreement. We use limited technical information to operate, secure and improve the website, prevent spam and abuse, understand aggregate website usage and meet applicable obligations. We do this where necessary for our legitimate interests in running a secure and effective website or to comply with a legal obligation.

04

Service providers and recipients

We share personal data only where needed to handle your enquiry or operate the website. Recipients may include relevant ECDSIC and Citeel team members and trusted providers that host the website, deliver form submissions and email, provide privacy-focused website analytics, or protect the form from automated abuse. These providers include Vercel, Covalit and Cloudflare Turnstile. We do not sell your personal data or use it for behavioural advertising. We may disclose information if required by law or when necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

05

Analytics, cookies and security checks

We use Vercel Web Analytics to understand website traffic in aggregate. It does not use third-party cookies and is designed not to associate page-view data with an identifiable visitor. The enquiry form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to distinguish genuine submissions from automated abuse. Turnstile may process technical signals from your browser and device and may use cookies when needed to provide its security service.

06

International data transfers

Some of our service providers operate internationally. If personal data is processed outside the European Economic Area, we rely on the provider’s applicable transfer safeguards, such as an adequacy decision or approved contractual protections.

07

How long we keep information

We keep enquiry information only for as long as needed to respond, manage the related relationship and maintain appropriate business records. We may retain limited information for longer where required by law or necessary to resolve a dispute. Technical and analytics information is retained according to the relevant service provider’s retention settings and schedules.

08

Your choices and rights

Depending on your location and the circumstances, you may ask us for access to your personal data or request that it be corrected, deleted, restricted or provided in a portable format. You may also object to certain processing and withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before withdrawal. To make a request, email info@ecdsic.com. We may need to confirm your identity before completing it. You may also lodge a complaint with the data protection authority in the country where you live or work.

09

Keeping your information secure

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or alteration. No internet transmission or storage system is completely secure, so please avoid including unnecessary sensitive information in your message.
