Privacy policy

Your privacy is important to us
PAW Services believes your right to privacy is important. To run an efficient, effective service, however, we need to collect and use certain information about our users.

What information do we collect and why?
In general, you can browse the PAW Services website without disclosing any information about yourself.

Submitting personal information on our site is optional.

When you submit an enquiry we ask for information such as your name, email address, phone number and criteria specific to your enquiry. This information will only be released to those suppliers that are selected on the directory page on which you submit an enquiry.

If you register your company as a supplier we ask for information such as your name, phone number, email address, address, company details, brand details and testimonials. This information may be made available to the public as a listing in our indexes. Additionally, this information may be made available to a user to whom you send a reply to an enquiry.

Whenever you provide such personal information, we will treat that information in accordance with this policy.

How do we use your personal information?
PAW Services may disclose and use personal information collected about you within its own organisation for the purpose of internal business administration and analysis.

We will respect your email privacy. You will not receive unsolicited mail from PAW Services and/or from third parties. We will, however, mail you occasionally with information about PAW Services or important changes to our service.

We will not rent, trade or sell your data to others.

We monitor customer traffic patterns and site usage in order to help us develop the design and layout of the website.

For these purposes we may send your information internationally, including to countries outside the European Economic Association. Other countries offer differing levels of protection for personal information, not all of which will be as high as the levels of protection offered in the Netherlands.

How do we protect your personal details?
We have strict procedures governing the storage and disclosure of personal details to prevent unauthorised access and misuse.

In addition, all the enquirer’s personal information is password-protected: only PAW Services and the suppliers that have been selected by the enquirer have access to the enquirer personal information.

Access to your personal information
You have the right to request a copy of the personal information PAW Services holds about you and to have any inaccuracies corrected. (We charge £10 for information requests.) Please address requests to the info@paw-services.nl.

Email this page to a friend
If you use this service, you can be sure that PAW Services will not collect the email addresses that you provide for other purposes. We will only hold this information for as long as is necessary to transmit the email to the recipient.
