Privacy and cookie policy

We are aware that you place your trust in us. It is therefore our responsibility to protect your privacy. Below you can read what personal data we collect when you use the Com.pas website and/or services and why we collect this data.

Com.pas respects the privacy of all users of its website and ensures that the personal information you provide to us is kept confidential. Com.pas is acting in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation as of May 25, 2018.

Purposes

Through this statement, we explain the purposes for which we collect your personal data. One of these purposes is the provision of our services as a payroll processing agency. We collect your data on the basis of legitimate interest. This means that the collection of your data is required to perform our services. However, we will only use the data strictly necessary to perform the service in question. In addition, we collect data for the purpose of answering your questions and proactive advice. Here, too, the legitimate interest applies and only the necessary data is recorded. The data is stored on Com.pas’ own secure servers.

Recipients

Com.pas will never sell your personal data to other parties. Making your personal data available will only be done when this is necessary on the basis of legitimate interest for the performance of our service. An example of this is providing your data to the pension fund and government agencies such as the Tax Office or the UWV. Provision to other institutions will only take place with your permission. Finally, Com.pas may provide your personal data to third parties if it is obliged to do so on the basis of legislation and/or regulations.

  • right to information;
  • right of inspection and correction;
  • right to removal;
  • right to data portability.
