Minors
Our website and services do not intend to collect Personal Data about visitors under the age of 16, with the exception of given permission from parents or guardians. FACET cannot verify the age of a visitor, so we strongly advise parents to be involved in their children's online activities. This way, we can ensure that no Personal Data of minors is processed without parental consent.
Please contact us if we have done something wrong
If you are convinced that we have collected personal data about a minor without the
aforementioned consent, please contact us via avg@facet-acountants.nl. We will delete the data immediately.

- Providing you with the opportunity to fill out a complaint form.
- Answering your questions and comments in our chat function.
- Analyzing your behavior on the website to improve it and tailor it to your preferences.

FACET will not store your personal data any longer than necessary to achieve the purposes for which your data is collected. If you would like information about our retention periods in your specific case, please contact: avg@facet-accountants.nl.
Processing by third parties
