  1. Collection and use of personal information

1.1. Type of personal data we process

The Finest obtains your personal data because you use our services and/or because you provide it to us yourself. By registering and/or providing personal data to The Finest, you give us your express consent to use these data in accordance with this Privacy Statement. Your personal data will not be used for any other purpose unless we obtain your consent, or unless otherwise required or permitted by law or professional standards. For example, if you purchase one of our services, we will use the information to contact you or to deliver services and goods to you. If you send us a resume to apply for a position with The Finest, we will use the information you provide to match you with available positions.

1.2. Special and/or sensitive data that we process

Our website and/or service does not intend to collect information about website visitors who are under the age of 18, unless they have permission from their parents or a guardian. However, we cannot verify whether a visitor is over the age of 18. We therefore recommend that parents be involved in their children's online activities in order to prevent the collection of data about children without parental consent. If you believe that we have collected personal information about a minor without such consent, please contact us at info@thefinest.one and we will delete this information.

1.3. Legal grounds we have for using your personal information

The Finest generally collects only the personal information necessary to fulfill your request. If additional data is requested, you will be notified at the time it is collected.

Applicable law allows us to process personal data as long as we have a processing ground under the law to do so. The law also requires us to tell you what those grounds are. Consequently, when we process your personal data, we will rely on one of the following legal grounds for processing:

- Execution of a contract: this is when the processing of your personal data is necessary to carry out our obligations under a contract or the intention to conclude a contract;

- Legal obligation: this is when we are required to process your personal data to comply with a legal obligation, such as keeping records for tax purposes or providing information to a government or law enforcement agency;

- Legitimate interests: we may process data about you where it is in our legitimate interest to run a legitimate business to do so to further that business, as long as this does not outweigh your interests; or

- Your consent: we may from time to time ask you for specific consent to process some of your personal data, and we will only process your personal data in this way if you consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting Renoconcept at info@thefinest.one

1.4. Purposes for which your personal data will be processed

We will only process your personal data for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and we will not further process your personal data in a way incompatible with these purposes.
This purpose may be the execution of a contract, the improvement of your visit to our website, the improvement of our products and services more generally, the provision of services or applications, marketing communications and promotions, web personalization, direct marketing, web analytics, etc.
The purpose of any processing of your personal data will be clearly defined in the privacy statement. This privacy statement will be accessible, e.g. on a website, in an electronic newsletter, etc.

1.5. Personal data that we collect automatically

In some cases, The Finest and its service providers use cookies and other technologies to automatically collect certain types of information when you visit us online, as well as through emails we may exchange. Collecting this information allows us to customize your online experience, improve the performance, usability and effectiveness of The Finest's online presence, and measure the effectiveness of our marketing efforts.

  1. Retention period

The Finest BV will keep your personal data no longer than strictly necessary to fulfill the purposes for which your data is collected.

  1. Sharing data with third parties

We do not share personal data with unaffiliated third parties except as necessary for our legitimate professional and business needs, to fulfill your requests, and/or as required or permitted by law or professional standards. This would include:

In some cases, The Finest may also share personal information about you with various third-party companies or service providers or vendors working on our behalf.

- The Finest may also disclose personal data to our service providers: The Finest works with reputable partners, service providers or agencies so that they may process your personal data on our behalf. The Finest will only disclose personal data to them if they meet our strict data processing and security standards. We only share personal data that enables them to provide their services.

- If we are reorganized or sold to another organization: The Finest may also disclose personal information in connection with the sale, transfer or other disposal of the business of the site to which the information relates

- Courts, Law Enforcement Agencies or Regulatory Bodies: The Finest may disclose personal information to comply with requests by courts, governmental or law enforcement agencies or when it is necessary or prudent to comply with applicable laws, court orders or rules, or governmental regulations.

- Audits: the release of personal data may also be necessary for data privacy or security audits and/or to investigate or respond to a complaint or security threat.

The Finest will not disclose the personal information you provide to third parties for their own direct marketing use.
