What we collect, why we are allowed to, how long we keep it, and what you can ask us to do about it.
01. Who we are
Last updated 13 October 2026
This page also appears in Dutch and Turkish. If the versions differ, the Dutch text prevails.
Ucar Digital Media is a digital marketing agency based in the Netherlands. For the personal data described on this page we are the controller, which means we decide why it is processed and how.
We are small enough that a data protection officer is not required. Anything on this page is answered by the same people who do the work.
→ Ucar Digital Media, Operastraat 2, Barendrecht, the Netherlands
→ Chamber of Commerce (KVK) 88298248, VAT NL004589346B14
02. What we collect
Three separate streams, and we keep them separate. We do not buy contact lists, and we do not build profiles of the people who visit this site.
→ What you send us. Your name, email address, phone number, the service you are interested in and your message - through the contact form, by email, by phone or over WhatsApp.
→ What arrives on its own. mijn.host, which hosts this website, records the IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time of the request in ordinary server logs, to deliver the page and keep the site secure.
→ What belongs to our clients. During a project we may see data about a client's own customers. There the client decides what happens to it and we act on their instructions, under a separate processing agreement.
03. Why we process it, and on what basis
→ To answer an enquiry and write a quote. Steps taken at your request before a contract - Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.
→ To run a project and invoice for it. Performance of a contract - Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.
→ To keep the books. A legal obligation - Article 6(1)(c) GDPR, together with the seven-year retention rule in Dutch tax law.
→ To keep the site online and secure. Our legitimate interest in a site that works and is not abused - Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
→ Anything that would track you, such as analytics or advertising pixels. Only with your consent, which you can withdraw at any moment - Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Today this site runs none of it.
04. Who else sees it
Only the suppliers we need, and only for what they are there for. Each of them is bound by a processing agreement. We do not sell personal data and we do not pass it on for anyone else's marketing.
→ mijn.host B.V., Pietersbergweg 291, Amsterdam. It hosts this website and carries our mailboxes, so it holds both the server logs and the correspondence itself, including every message sent through the contact form. mijn.host states that it runs its own servers in Dutch data centres.
→ Jortt B.V., Transistorstraat 71C, Almere (KvK 64073319). Our bookkeeping runs in Jortt, so our invoices and the client details printed on them sit there.
→ Advertising platforms such as Google Ads, for client campaigns we manage. That is client data, not the data of people visiting this site.
05. How long we keep it
→ Enquiries that do not turn into work: twelve months, then deleted.
→ Client correspondence and project files: for as long as we work together, and two years after the last assignment.
→ Invoices and anything the tax authority may ask about: seven years, because the law says so.
→ Server logs: only as long as mijn.host keeps them for its own security and troubleshooting. We do not copy them and we do not extend that period.
06. What you can ask us to do
You can ask for a copy of your data, have it corrected, have it deleted, ask us to limit what we do with it, object to processing based on legitimate interest, or ask for it in a portable file. Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time without giving a reason.
07. Keeping it safe
The site is served over HTTPS, access to enquiries and client files is limited to the people working on them, and we choose suppliers partly on how seriously they take this. No arrangement is perfect. If a breach ever put you at real risk, we will tell you and the regulator within the time the law allows.
08. Changes to this statement
When something changes we update the date at the top of this page. If a change matters to you - a new supplier, a new purpose, anything measured - we will say so on the homepage rather than hope you read this again.
Cookie statement
This website sets no cookies at all. No analytics, no advertising pixels, no social media plug-ins, nothing that follows you to the next website. The typefaces are served from our own server, so no font provider sees your visit either. There is no consent banner because there is nothing to consent to.
If we ever add measurement or advertising tags, three things happen before they load: you get a banner that lets you say no as easily as yes, this page lists every cookie with its purpose and lifespan, and your choice is recorded so you can change it.
Every browser can block cookies and site data, or clear what is already there. Look for privacy in the settings: in Chrome and Edge under Privacy and security, in Safari under Privacy, in Firefox under Privacy & Security.
