Special and/or sensitive personal data that we process

Our website and/or services are not intended to gather data about website visitors under the age of 16, unless they have the permission of their parents or guardian. However, we can not check whether a visitor is over the age of 16. We therefore advise parents to supervise the online activities of their children in order to prevent information about children being collected without parental permission. If you believe that personal data about a minor has been collected without permission, contact us via marketing@tekagroep.nl and we will delete this information.
