We never seek to collect or maintain information from those under the age of 13, but if it comes to our attention that we have received information about a child under the age of 13 we'll immediately delete their information from our records.

PWA is committed to protecting your personal information. We will not disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties without your consent except:

4.10 Disclosure for legal reasons

We reserve the right to communicate your personal information to third parties and make a legally compliant request for its disclosure.

5. CONTROLLING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

5.1 Transfer of information

Personal information collected on pocket wifi-amsterdam.com will be stored and processed in the Netherlands and by using this site, you consent to any such transfer of information outside your country. We will not supply your data to a third party for commercial exploitation unless explicitly authorized by you; so you can sleep easy knowing that we won't sell your name, personal details, or email addresses to any third party without express consent from you. The only circumstances in which we will provide any of your data to a third party for non-commercial purposes are those contained in this Privacy Policy.

5.2 Security and prevention against loss, misuse or alteration of information

This is the slightly technical bit - it's an explanation of exactly how we make sure all your details are secure. It's pretty straightforward (if a little bit dull!). All the information you give to us is stored in the Netherlands, only on secure servers that are protected in secure facilities including firewall protection. PWA has implemented such technology and security features, as well as strict internal guidelines, to safeguard the privacy of your personal information from unauthorized access or improper use. We will continue to enhance security as new technology becomes available. For transmitting your personal information to us, we use a secure server with a 128-bit SSL certificate that encrypts all of your personal information. This encryption process ensures that the information you give us is protected against unauthorized use. While we make every effort to ensure that your information is secure on our system, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. (But as this extensive policy demonstrates, we've done everything humanly possible to make sure nothing bad happens.) Access authorization is granted to key PWA staff only. Backups are run to prevent loss of information, and our Internet servers are housed in secure facilities. We have security measures in place to protect our customer database and access to this database is restricted internally. However, it remains each user's responsibility: To protect against unauthorized access to your account ensure against use by anyone else of pocketwifi-amsterdam.com through the machine that the user uses while they are logged on to pocketwifi-amsterdam.com or exit from pocketwifi-amsterdam.com when not using it; and to keep his/her password secret

5.3 Data Retention Period

We will retain your data only as long as is necessary for the purposes to which you consent under the PWA terms and Conditions and this Privacy Policy or as is required by applicable law, and then we will delete it (we promise.) Credit and Payment Card information. This period is 30 days. PWA processes Credit and payment cards by Payment Card Industry (PCI) data security standards. PWA processes all Credit and Payment card details solely for the use of processing payments, all details are encrypted and transferred to PWA payment provider for processing, and apart from the last 4 digits of the Permanent Account Number (PAN), which is used for reference, are not stored by PWA in any database. Parties such as Stripe and Squarespace will verify the transition.

5.4 Place Of Processing

The personal information held by us is held on and processed by computers located in the Netherlands.

5.5 Opt-out policy.

Your ability to edit and cancel your account. You can access your account on the site to update and correct the details that we gathered when you subscribed. You must be logged in to access this information. All information is password-protected so no one can access the information but you.

5.6 Changes to this privacy policy

Occasionally PWA will review and possibly change or edit this policy by potential changes to our business and as required by law. PWA reserves the right to change its Privacy Policy at any time.
