Legal basis

- to comply with legal obligations, including accounting and tax requirements
- where necessary for our legitimate interests, such as managing our business, communicating with clients and protecting our services, provided that these interests do not override your rights and freedoms
We do not rely on consent as the legal basis for processing booking and service information where another GDPR legal basis applies.
Moneybird
Customer and invoice information is processed through Moneybird for administration and invoicing.
This may include your name, address, email address, phone number, invoice information, amount and description of the service.
Moneybird processes this information as a service provider used for business administration and invoicing. Moneybird's own privacy policy and terms also apply to its processing of personal data.
How long we keep your data
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer period is required by law.
Customer and invoice administration data that form part of our business and tax records are generally retained for 7 years where required by Dutch tax and accounting rules.
Other request or communication data are kept only for as long as reasonably necessary for the relevant service, administration, legal obligations or handling possible disputes, and are deleted or anonymised when they are no longer needed.
Email and WhatsApp
We may use email and WhatsApp to communicate with you about your request, booking and cat care.
Information you send through these services is processed by the respective service provider as part of providing that communication service.
