4. Google Analytics & Cookies
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies.” Cookies are small information files that are temporarily or permanently stored on your computer or device by the server of a website via the browser. The cookies contain a unique code that allows your browser to be recognized during your visit to that website (this is a “session” cookie) or during subsequent visits or use (this is a “permanent” cookie). Cookies make the use of a website simpler, more complete, and personalized. For more information on the use of cookies, please refer to our Cookie Statement, which provides further explanation.
5. Personal Data of Children
Teksam Company NV never knowingly requests or collects personal data from children under the age of 12. If Teksam Company NV discovers that it has inadvertently collected personal data from a child under the age of 12, it will delete the child’s personal data from its files as soon as reasonably possible. Teksam Company NV may, however, collect personal data from children under the age of 12 directly from a parent or guardian, and thus with their express consent.
6. Data Retention
We process the data you voluntarily entered on our Website solely for internal use and for the stated purposes (for example, submitting your details in the contact form or the details provided when requesting a quote, etc.). The personal data obtained will not be shared with third parties unless you have given your specific consent.
Teksam Company NV will not retain your personal data longer than necessary for the stated purpose, taking into account our need to answer questions and resolve problems, improve services, offer new services, and comply with legal requirements. This means we may retain your personal data for a reasonable period following your last interaction with Teksam Company NV. When the personal data we collect is no longer required, we will securely destroy or delete it.

Various pages on our websites may contain links to other websites. These data protection guidelines apply only to our websites. We recommend that you review the data protection provisions on the other sites.
We are not responsible for the content of the websites to which you are referred via links on this Website, nor are we deemed to agree with the content made available through these links.
