- Grounds for processing personal data
In order to be allowed to process your personal data, there must be a legitimate basis for doing so. In the case of TGNDATA, this legitimate basis will be – depending on the type of personal data concerned – the performance of an agreement, a legitimate interest that does not outweigh your privacy interests or consent. If you do not provide certain personal data, you may not be allowed to fully benefit from all website functionality.
Agreement
We need to process personal data for the purposes of fulfilling certain contractual obligations.
Legitimate interest
We have an interest in being in a position to carry out certain surveys and send direct marketing messages or to contact you by phone. On the grounds of these interests, we will process your personal data unless your privacy interests outweigh our interests.
Consent
If none of the aforementioned bases for processing applies, then we will request your consent to process certain personal data. You are free to withdraw your consent at any time.
- To whom does TGNDATA issue personal data?
In order to perform our services to you, we enlist the services of other parties to process personal data on our behalf. If we instruct a third party to process personal data on our behalf and we have and retain control over the processing, we will sign a written processing agreement with the third party concerned (the ‘processor’). That document will lay down agreements on such points as the objective, the duration and scope of the processing, the retention times and the security measures for the personal data.
- Processing personal data outside of the EU
TGNDATA will endeavour to process your data solely within the European Union by saving your data on a server located in the EU wherever possible. Sometimes this will not be possible.
When we enlist the services of data processing firms, we stipulate that they must save personal data on servers located in the EU. To the extent that this is not possible, we take the requisite measures to provide a suitable level of protection to ensure that your personal data is secure.
- Your rights with regard to personal data
You are entitled, under certain circumstances, to access any personal data processed by us or to have it corrected or deleted or restrict its processing. Sometimes you can also lodge an objection or request a transfer of your personal data. To submit a request to us in this respect, please contact us by sending an email to legal@tgndata.com . If in doubt about your identity, we are entitled to ask you to provide proof of your identity first.
Access and correction
If you wish to know whether we are processing your personal data or would like to amend your personal data, please get in touch with us.
Erasure
Under certain circumstances, you are allowed to have personal data erased. We will assess whether it is possible to implement such a request: in some cases, we will have to retain your personal data, e.g. to comply with a statutory obligation or (as a one-off action) to see to it that you will no longer receive messages from us.
Restriction
You are entitled to contact us with a request to restrict the processing of your data if you think that your personal data is incorrect, the processing of it is unlawful, you require it for legal action or you have objected to it being processed.
Objection
if we process your personal data on the basis of legitimate interest, then you can object to further use of your personal data on the grounds of your specific reasons.

- How long do we keep your personal data?
We will not keep your personal data for longer than is necessary for the purposes for which we use it. We are required by law to keep some data for a certain period of time. Wherever possible, we will pseudonymize or anonymize your personal data to the fullest extent possible.
