Handling of your personal data
Jaarbeurs values your privacy and will handle your personal data as carefully and securely as possible. In doing so, Jaarbeurs will comply with the privacy regulations. Jaarbeurs records personal data in connection with the provision of its services.

Applicability
This privacy statement is intended to inform users of the Jaarbeurs Live App ("the App") about the handling of their personal data. This privacy statement applies to all processing of personal data through this App and by or on behalf of Jaarbeurs and its European affiliated companies.

Layout privacy statement
In this privacy statement, we indicate what personal data we may process from you when you use the App. What personal data that is depends on which services you use in the App. For example, we will process different personal data when you use the App as a guest, as a registered user than when you use navigation or participate in a chat session.

To inform you as well as possible, we have distinguished between the various processing of personal data for the specific services of the App. Further on in this statement you can read which personal data Jaarbeurs processes for the following specific service or processing and why:

  • Access the app
  • Register as a user
  • Navigation
  • E-ticket

Basis for processing
Jaarbeurs uses the personal data mentioned in this statement, among other things, for the execution and handling of an agreement, has legitimate business interests for this or on the basis of your consent. Jaarbeurs may also have a legal obligation to process your personal data.

If Jaarbeurs processes personal data based on your consent, Jaarbeurs will ask you separately. You may withdraw consent at any time, but the data processed up to the time of withdrawal will continue to be processed lawfully.

Personal data may have been provided voluntarily by you or, in the case of user data, collected automatically when you use the App. Unless otherwise stated, all personal data requested by the App is required. Failure to provide personal data may make it impossible for the App to make its services available. In the event that the App specifically states that the personal data is not required, you are free not to provide such personal data, without any consequences for the availability and functioning of the services in the App.

Third parties
As part of the performance of its services, Jaarbeurs may exchange your personal data with third parties. For example, the parties involved in the development and/or creation of the App services. In addition, Jaarbeurs uses various advisors who could have access to your personal data, such as organisational advisors or lawyers.

In addition, we may have to provide your personal data to third parties if we are required to do so by law. For example, the police or the municipality may request data from us in the context of fraud, security or investigation.

You are solely responsible for personal data you have collected, published or shared from another person via this App and can confirm that you are providing this data to Jaarbeurs with that person's consent.

Transfer outside the EU
In principle, your personal data will be processed and stored within the EU. It is possible that certain personal data may be processed and/or stored by third parties outside the EU based on the use of their services, such as social media platforms. The processing of your personal data by these services will only take place with your explicit consent. For more information on these services and data transfers, please consult the privacy policies of these third parties n.

Retention periods
Jaarbeurs will not retain your personal data for longer than is necessary for the purposes of processing stated in this statement. This means that your personal data are kept for as long as they are necessary to achieve the purposes in question. If specific retention periods are specified, this is stated in the detailed information about the relevant App service.

We do need to keep certain personal data for longer because Jaarbeurs has to comply with legal retention obligations, such as the tax retention obligation.

Device permissions to access personal data
Depending on your specific device, the App may require certain permissions that allow access to your device's (personal) data as described below.

By default, these consents must be granted by you before access to the relevant (personal) data can be obtained. Once consent is granted, it can be revoked by you at any time. To revoke these consents, please consult the settings of your device or contact Jaarbeurs.

The exact procedure for controlling App permissions may depend on your device and software. Please note that revoking such consents may affect the proper functioning of the App. If you grant any of the consents listed below, the relevant personal data may be processed (i.e. accessed, modified or deleted) by the App.

Authorisation for estimated location (ongoing)
Used to access the estimated location of your device. The App collects, uses and shares your location data to provide location-based services.

Bluetooth sharing permission
Used to access Bluetooth-related functions such as scanning to devices, connecting to devices, and allowing data transfer between devices.

Age limit
The App is not intended for use by children under 16 years of age, unless specifically stated by the organiser of the fair or event. If you are under 16, you can use the App after your parents or guardians have acknowledged and agreed to the terms and conditions in the App.

Security
Jaarbeurs has obviously taken security measures to protect your personal data from loss or unauthorised access.

Jaarbeurs Live App
As a visitor to exhibitions and events at Jaarbeurs, we offer additional services through the App. As a user of the App, you provide personal data to Jaarbeurs yourself or Jaarbeurs processes your personal data, for example when you navigate the hall, add your e-ticket or contact an exhibitor via the chat. When you install the App, you also get access to specific information about the exhibition or event and its location for your visit to Jaarbeurs. You have the choice of using the App as a guest or as a registered user. Certain services require you to register yourself as a user.

Personal data and purposes of processing

Access to the App
Jaarbeurs processes the following personal data, itself or through a third party, for the performance of the agreement to provide you with access to the app:

  • phone settings
  • opt-in (consent) information
  • notification settings

Jaarbeurs also processes the following personal data, itself or through a third party, for our legitimate interest to improve our services:

  • click behaviour
  • user data (such as timestamps, language, app updates, etc.)
  • statistical data (such as device information, network type, starts, operating systems, etc.)

Register as a user
You can register as a user by completing the App registration form with your personal data. Jaarbeurs processes this personal data, itself or through a third party, for the execution of the agreement of your registration and authentication:

  • name
  • e-mail address
  • user ID
  • password
  • social media token (when logging in with social media)
  • profile picture (optional)

Your user account, including personal data, will remain available to you after the end of the fair or event, unless you make a request to have it deleted or you have been inactive for an extended period of time.

Navigation
To enable you to navigate within the hall(s) of the exhibition or event (including receiving notifications and information about crowds), Jaarbeurs, itself or through a third party, processes the following personal data, based on your explicit consent:

  • Device sensor and radio data: radio information such as BLE and WIFI signals, GPS signals, as well as IMU sensor data, are processed to determine whether you are inside and to calculate your exact location.
  • Location information: location information such as coordinates (latitude and longitude), floor number, course, and associated timestamps, from the device are processed to calculate crowd density levels and provide you with indoor navigation.

The collection of the above (personal) data is done both when the App is in the foreground and when it is in the background and in a pseudonymous form. This makes it possible to distinguish between different people and locations. The pseudonymous data is deleted after 4 days (96 hours). After that, all data is erased or anonymised so that it is no longer personally identifiable.

Jaarbeurs also processes the following (personal) data, itself or through third parties, based on our legitimate interest to maintain and develop this service:

  • Random user ID: we generate a random user ID when you first install the App. This identifier is used to link data from the same device together (i.e. to create pseudonymous data), which is necessary to technically provide this service, and to comply with inquiries and regulatory agency requirements.
  • Other information from your device: information such as operating system version, battery level, network connection status and language preference are collected to monitor usage of the service.
  • Log data: your use of the Services may generate server logs, crash reports and audit logs. These are collected to ensure the technical functionality and security of the Services, to monitor and analyse the Services, and to prevent and investigate fraud and other abuses.

For pressure measurement, we use only anonymous data. To improve our services, we also use only anonymous location data to analyse visitor behaviour, such as the number of visitors who passed a stand, the busiest paths and moments.

All data will be stored for a period of up to 4 days (96 hours) after it is collected or may be deleted earlier at your request. All data processed based on your explicit consent, including non-aggregated location data, will be deleted. Data processed based on our legitimate interest, such as log data and information about the model of your device, will either be anonymised or deleted. Non-personal, anonymous data, such as aggregated crowd density data and anonymised log data, are retained indefinitely.

E-ticket
You have the option of loading your e-ticket into the App. When you use this service, Jaarbeurs, itself or through a third party, processes the following personal data based on our legitimate interest:

  • e-mail address (which was used to purchase your e-ticket)
  • order number
  • QR code

This personal data will be deleted after the end of the fair or event.
