Article 3 – How we share your data with third parties

If we ever cease to operate or transfer our business to anyone else, for example if we go bankrupt or sell our business, this may involve transferring your Personal Data to third parties who will take over all or part of our business. To the extent possible, Het Huis van de Geuze will always inform you in advance, but you understand that this may not be technically or commercially feasible in all circumstances.

In rare cases, we may be required to disclose Personal Data pursuant to a court order or to comply with other mandatory laws or regulations. We will try to inform you in advance to the best of our ability, unless we cannot do so for legal reasons.

We may share your data with third parties whose services we use in connection with your order process and order. Your data may be passed on to and processed by software and cloud suppliers, financial partners, logistics partners or any other third party who is a party to or plays a role in your order. The current list can be obtained upon simple request by e-mail. For each transfer to a third party, we ensure the appropriate security measures regarding your personal data, including the conclusion of processing agreements where necessary.

We always try to make maximum use of European suppliers and try to keep your data within Europe wherever possible. If we do have to rely on non-European third parties, we ensure that your data is as safe outside Europe as it is here. Thus, where necessary, we conclude Standard Contractual Clauses with these partners and provide additional safeguards.
