Special and/or sensitive personal data we process
Our website and/or service does not intend to collect data about website visitors younger than 16, unless they have permission from their parents or guardian. However, we cannot check whether a visitor is older than 16. We therefore advise parents to be involved in the online activities of their children, to prevent data about children being collected without parental consent. If you believe that we have collected personal information about a minor without that consent, please contact us at administratie@summix.nl, and we will delete this information.

Automated decision-making
Summix B.V. does not make decisions based on automated processing on matters that may have (significant) consequences for individuals. These are decisions taken by computer programs or systems without a human being involved.
