Qlick does not retain personal data for longer than is necessary for the purpose of the processing. Qlick retains your Personal Data as long we consider this necessary to be able to provide you with services, to enable you to use our website, to comply with applicable laws, to resolve disputes with parties, and for other purposes that enable us to conduct our commercial activities.

As long as you are a client of Qlick, we will keep the company details and contact details stored on our systems. After ending the client agreement, we might still keep these details on our systems, for example, when a contact is linked to an agreement, invoice, or any other official document.
‍
We store data on (potential) candidates for a period of 3 years. After this period, we will ask the (potential) candidate for permission to store his personal data for another 3 years. Potential candidates can access their personal data that is stored in our systems. If a potential candidate no longer wishes to be approached by Qlick, he/she can file a request for the deletion of his personal data.
‍
In case you have applied for any of our internal vacancies at Qlick, but have not been invited for a job interview, or when we unexpectedly could not agree on your contract, we will keep your personal data stored for 4 weeks. After this period, we will ask you for permission to
store the personal data for 3 years. We do this in order to be able to approach you again in the future, for example, when a new vacancy comes up that matches your profile.

Amendments and applicable law

We may modify our Privacy Policy in the future, for example, because legislation has been altered, or because we have extended our services, or because we think our current Privacy Policy should be formulated differently. You will find any possible changes on this page.
None of the provisions of this Privacy Policy are intended to create any obligation or contract between you and Qlick. Dutch law will apply to the provisions of this Privacy Policy and all disputes arising therefrom.
