Our website and services do not intend to collect data about visitors who are under the age of 16, with the exception of given permission from parents or guardians. Johan & Cornelis is unable to actively monitor whether visitor is older than the age of 16, therefore we advise parents to be involved in the online activities of their children. This way, we can prevent the collection of data on children without parental consent.
If you have reason to believe that we have collected personal data about a minor under the age of 16 without parental consent, please contact us via info@johancornelis.com

Johan & Cornelis will not store your personal data any longer than necessary to achieve the purposes for which your data is collected. If a statutory obligation exists to retain data or there is a retention period on grounds of professional or conduct regulations, then we observe such periods correctly.

If you would like information about our retention periods in your specific case, please contact: info@johancornelis.com

Johan & Cornelis only provide information on our website visitors to third parties that require such information to run the website, or if you specifically provide information for a certain purpose, for example through a contact form or newsletter request (for more information please read the cookie statement).
