VNCK BV respects your privacy and processes personal data only where necessary to operate this website, respond to enquiries and understand how the website is used.
This privacy policy explains what information may be processed when you visit vnck.be or contact VNCK through the website.
Who is responsible for your data?

For questions about privacy or the processing of your personal data, you can contact VNCK using the email address above.
Information you provide when contacting VNCK
When you use the contact form, VNCK may process information such as:
- your name;
- your email address;
- the company you work for, if requested or provided;
- the contents of your message;
- any other information you choose to provide.
This information is used to respond to your enquiry, discuss a potential project or business relationship, and follow up on your request.
The legal basis for this processing is taking steps at your request before entering into a contract and, where applicable, VNCK’s legitimate interest in responding to business enquiries and managing professional relationships.
Contact form and email delivery
Contact form submissions are sent to VNCK by email.
VNCK uses Mailgun as an email delivery provider. The website sends the information required to deliver your message to Mailgun through its EU infrastructure.
VNCK does not maintain a separate website database of contact form submissions.
Mailgun may temporarily process message content and technical delivery information as part of providing its email delivery service. Mailgun acts as a service provider processing this information on behalf of VNCK.
After delivery, your message is stored in VNCK’s email environment and may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your enquiry, manage the resulting business relationship, comply with legal obligations or maintain relevant business correspondence.
Website analytics
VNCK uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use the website.
Google Analytics is only activated after you choose to accept analytics cookies.
If you do not accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics is not loaded for analytics measurement.
When enabled, Google Analytics may process information about how you interact with the website, such as:
- pages visited;
- approximate location derived from technical information;
- device and browser information;
- referral information;
- interactions with the website;
- session and usage information.
VNCK uses this information to understand website usage and improve the website.
The legal basis for storing or accessing analytics information on your device is your consent. Where personal data is subsequently processed through Google Analytics, that processing is also based on your consent.
You can withdraw or change your analytics consent through the cookie settings available on the website.

This processing is necessary to provide, secure and maintain the website and is based on VNCK’s legitimate interest in operating a secure and reliable website.

Analytics technologies are not activated until you provide consent.

How long is personal data kept?
VNCK does not retain personal data longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
The exact retention period depends on the type of information and its purpose.
For example:
