Touchpix has its registered offices at Bonnetstraat 7 in (6718XN) Ede, the Netherlands, is registered in the commercial register of the Chamber of Commerce under number 75570726 and bears the name Touchpix. Touchpix can be reached via e-mail at [email protected]. This privacy statement explains how Touchpix handles the processing of personal data. It states, for example, the personal data (and categories of personal data) that are collected and the purpose for which the personal data are used. Touchpix also states the legal grounds for the processing of personal data. The processing of personal data by Touchpix falls under the statutory exemption regulations. For this reason, the processing is not reported to the Dutch Data Protection Authority. Touchpix reserves the right to make changes to this privacy statement. 

Types, purposes, legal grounds and period of processing of personal data

Your personal data are processed when you enter into an agreement with Touchpix. This agreement is formed when you download the Touchpix app. The personal data are used to enable surveys in the app, in which you can create your own questionnaires. When creating your account in the app, you are asked to fill in certain mandatory data. This includes your name and address. The registration form also asks for your e-mail address. Your e-mail address is necessary in order to be able to easily contact you at a later time, as well as to inform you about products or services that may be of interest to you in the future. You can unsubscribe from this newsletter at any time by clicking on the link in the e-mail. The personal data for an event is stored for up to six months after you were last active on that event, after which they will be automatically deleted. In other words, Touchpix itself will delete all visual material and any related personal information related to an event six months after the creation of that event. Your email and phone number will not be shared with third parties.  The app also saves the visual material (i.e. photographs and videos) created in the events you purchased. This visual material is saved in your personal online gallery, allowing you to share the visual material with the guests of your event at a later time. Photographs and videos fall under the special categories for personal data, as it is possible to extract someone’s special personal data (e.g. race, ethnic origin or health data) from a photograph or video. For the purpose of saving this visual material, each person who uses your event will grant his or her explicit permission before the visual material is created. This explicit permission can be withdrawn at any time. In that case, you must delete any visual material in which this person is found, even if it shows more than one person. The app uses depth data to process the photographs and videos. It uses the true depth sensor and the ultra-wide and wide lens to get this data. This data will not be stored, it is only used for real-time processing. The depth data is not used by any third party, since it’s not stored. The phone numbers that are entered to receive the link to the photo or video in the SMS short code program will be stored. This data will not be shared with third parties. 

Processing agreement

As soon as you purchase an event in the app, you will become a controller of personal data within the meaning of the GDPR. This is due to the fact that you retain the visual material and personal data, i.e. names and e-mail addresses, of persons who use your event. Touchpix receives these data from you, meaning that Touchpix is the processor. The acceptance of this privacy statement means that a processing agreement is formed between you and Touchpix. This agreement will end by operation of law when you delete your account or uninstall the app. Touchpix guarantees the application of appropriate technical and organizational measures, ensuring that the processing of personal data meets the requirements of the GDPR and safeguarding the protection of the personal data of the user of your event. Touchpix ensures compliance with GDPR regulations. You are liable for any damage or loss or fines imposed on you or on Touchpix by the Dutch Data Protection Authority if you violate the GDPR.
