Privacy and Cookie Statement
At Comfortho we attach great importance to the privacy of the users of the website. In order to guarantee your privacy as much as possible, we apply a number of core values.

Inform
We want to inform you as well as possible how and why we process personal data. We do this through this privacy statement.
Limiting collection
We take great care to ensure that our collection of personal data is limited to what is really necessary for the proper functioning of the website and the services used by you.
No marketing based on personal data
We do not hand over personal data for marketing purposes and only send commercial mailings with your express permission.
Your data remains with us
We do not pass on your personal data to other parties, unless this is necessary to provide the service used or when we are legally obliged to do so.

Secure
We take appropriate security measures to protect your personal data and require that parties who process personal data on our behalf also do so.
We respect your legal rights
Based on the law, you have several rights. In this privacy statement we inform you about these rights. In this privacy statement you can read how we put these core values into practice and how we respect and protect your right to privacy.
On what basis do we process your personal data?
We only process your personal data on the basis of a legal basis. For the purposes mentioned above, we process your personal data on the basis of the following principles.

Execution of the agreement
for the purposes of offering our services, e.g. to process your registration
(Express) Consent
for the purposes of granting access to and using the functionalities of our website, placing cookies, sending our newsletter, or processing your medical data after we have obtained your (explicit) consent.
Legitimate interest
in certain cases, we have a legitimate interest in processing your personal data. This is the case, for example, if we use cookies to improve our services and which do not or only to a limited extent affect your privacy.

Legal obligation
We may have a legal basis for the purposes of processing your medical information and maintaining your medical record. In addition, we are required by law to keep certain data of the order you placed in our webshop.
Data of persons under 16 years of age
Our website and/or service has no intention of collecting information about website visitors under the age of 16. However, we cannot verify whether a visitor is over 16 years of age. We encourage parents to be involved in their children’s online activities in order to prevent the collection of information about children without parental consent. If you believe that we have collected personal information about a minor without that consent, please contact us.

Provision to third parties
Your data will explicitly not be provided to third parties, other than those directly involved in the execution of the agreement between you and us, or unless any legal provision obliges us to do so. The parties we may need for the execution of the services requested by you are:

Hosting parties and our software suppliers
Payment service providers and delivery services
Your health insurer

Storage period
Your personal data will never be kept longer than necessary for the purposes described in this privacy statement or on the website, except in cases where any legal obligation opposes the removal of the personal data.

Cookies
We use cookies on this website. A cookie is a small text file that is stored in the browser of your computer, tablet or smartphone the first time you visit this website. These ensure that the website works properly and that, for example, your preferred settings are remembered.

These cookies are also used to make the website work properly and to optimize it. When you first visited our website, we already informed you about these cookies and asked your permission to place them. You can unsubscribe from cookies by setting your internet browser in such a way that it no longer stores cookies. In addition, you can also delete all information previously stored via your browser settings.

Use of session cookies
Session cookies allow us to see which parts of the website you have viewed during this visit. This enables us to adapt our service as much as possible to the surfing behaviour of our visitors. These cookies are automatically deleted as soon as you close your web browser.

Google Analytics
In the cases that we have activated the Google Analytics tool, cookies are placed via our website from the U.S. company Google, as part of the Analytics service. We use this service to track and get reports on how visitors use the website. This tool is privacy friendly. For example, we have not allowed Google to use the obtained Analytics information for other Google services, we pseudonymise the IP addresses and have concluded a processing agreement with Google.

The information collected by Google is transferred to and stored on servers in the United States. Google adheres to the Privacy Shield principles and is affiliated with the Privacy Shield program of the U.S. Department of Commerce. This means that there is an adequate level of protection for the processing of any personal data.

Authority Personal Data
Comfortho would also like to point out that you have the possibility to file a complaint with the supervisor in the country where you are located. In the Netherlands, the supervisor is called the Personal Data Authority.
