Our privacy policy explains how we handle your data. The basis of that policy is, first and always: your data is private once it is sent to dionvacation®.
The data we receive at dionvacation
You may be a member, a customer or an accommodation owner at dionvacation. In each of those cases you share certain data with us. Your username, for instance (member), or your first and last name (customer, accommodation owner).
We also receive address details when you register your accommodation or buy clothing. In that case we also need contact details so that we can reach you with confirmations and the like. In short, we receive personal data.
Security certificate, secure connection
We take security seriously. That is why we use a secure connection, and we hold a certificate that proves it. In technical terms that is an SSL certificate.
Thanks to this Secure Sockets Layer the data you send is encrypted. That keeps others, third parties, out of the picture where your data is concerned.
About visitor data
This website keeps general visitor data. We use the statistics from that anonymous data to improve the site. We use Google Analytics, so please also read the Google Analytics privacy policy.
Photographed or filmed
Our photo or film team may have captured you on camera. We ask your permission beforehand.
Privacy policy: how we handle the data you provide
We only handle your data, that is, process it, if you give your permission. You give that permission by completing a registration procedure or an order process on our website.
In those procedures and processes we explicitly ask you to share this data with us, for the purpose you are after: a registration or an order.
Your permission gives us a legal basis to process your data for specific purposes. We are glad to set out here how we go about that.
- We use the data you provide purely to support your registration or order.
- The data stays within dionvacation.
- We secure the data we store.
So we only handle data you provided yourself. And you can have that data changed at any time. That has to do with your rights.
dionvacation privacy policy and privacy rights
As a member, customer or accommodation owner at dionvacation you have several privacy rights under our policy. We set out five important ones:
- Right of access — You have the right to see which data we have received from you. On request we can print a copy and tell you what the data has been used for.
- Right to erasure — You may ask us to erase your data, so that we forget you. That has to be a ‘compelling’ request, since you gave your permission.
- Right to rectification — We correct or complete your data if it turns out to be wrong or incomplete. That rarely happens, because you provided it yourself.
- Right to data portability — Much like the right of access, but here it is the transfer of the data that matters. You have the right to receive your data.
- Right to restriction of processing — You can call us to order if we use the data for purposes beyond supporting registrations and orders.
Finally, there are two more rights we want to mention. First the right to human involvement in decisions. People sometimes run into automated processes when their data questions are answered. The right to object and to ask for a human to look at it applies then.
Second, there is always the right to object. A member, customer or accommodation owner can object to the processing of their data. That is awkward if you provided the data yourself with your permission, so the interests of everyone involved are weighed up.
It is less awkward when the data is used for other purposes. Then you can always point to your rights.
