Personal data is any information that we can associate with you. You share personal data with us when you are a customer with us or when you have contact with us for other reasons. For example, your name, your phone number, or your email address. But also the IP address of your computer. This concerns data that can be traced back to you as a person.
If you are a self-employed person or if you have a one-man business, a general partnership, or a partnership, then these data are also personal data, because they are directly traceable to you.
Processing is a legal term. It is also a very broad term. It concerns everything you can do with data:

- What personal data do Sales In Motion use?
Sales In Motion uses several categories of data.

Data when you have contact with Sales In Motion
We may also record information when you contact Sales In Motion. For example, when you contact Sales In Motion by phone, through our website, or through social media.
When you contact us through social media, there is a chance that you may inadvertently share with us other information in addition to the information you provide yourself.

We may also use data from public sources. We may obtain data about companies and their representatives from the Chamber of Commerce, but also from trade information agencies or through the insolvency register. In the context of customer or supplier acceptance, we may also use public information on the Internet.
- What do we use personal data for?
5.1 General
Sales In Motion can only perform its services properly if Sales In Motion is able to retrieve and record personal data in the process. This is necessary in order to provide targeted information about our products and services, but also for entering into and implementing agreements, for combating fraud, to comply with legal provisions, for (statistical) research into the use of the website and online services, and to improve our services. We will explain this further below.
5.2 To be able to provide our services
Sales In Motion need personal data to be able to execute our services properly. With your personal data we can, for example:
– Investigate whether you can become a customer with us;
– assess your application or change to an insurance policy or other service. The application for our services is often made digitally, through automated processing. You can always contact us about the outcome of the assessment;
– contact you or write to a counterparty on your behalf;
– put your data properly in our records and update it if there are any changes.
The lawful basis for processing your data in these cases is the contract we enter into with you.
5.3 Marketing
We like to inform our customers about our solutions. For example, through a newsletter, by e-mail, through our website, and through personalized advertisements. To do this, we use personal data. Your personal data may be used for our marketing activities. Sales In Motion has a central customer administration. The data we have received ourselves may be supplemented by public sources.
In doing so, Sales In Motion takes your preferences into account. It is important to us that we send information that is relevant to you. To that end, we collect preferences and behavioral data (“open and click behavior”) on a personal level through our commercial e-mail and newsletters. If you do not wish to receive commercial information from Sales In Motion, of course, you can. Under ‘your rights’ below you can read how to unsubscribe from receiving commercial e-mail and/or newsletters.
The lawful basis for processing data for these purposes is Sales In Motion’s legitimate interest in maintaining and increasing our customer base.
5.4 Telephone Calls
Telephone conversations may be recorded and retained by Sales In Motion for the following purposes, among others:
– sometimes it is necessary to record a conversation in order to properly record verbal agreements and to provide evidence of them;
– we record conversations for evaluating or improving the quality of services or for training, coaching, and assessment purposes.
Thus, the lawful basis for collecting this data is in some cases the contract and in other cases Sales In Motion’s legitimate interest in ensuring and improving the quality of service.
5.5 For (statistical) research and to improve services
We also use data for research, to improve products and services. We do this by combining and analyzing them. These analyses lead us to new ideas and better solutions. For example, we can:
– resolve the cause of complaints, improve pages and forms on our websites, and speed up processes;
– develop new services and improve existing ones.
When analyzing, we use only the data we need for that purpose. And we may bundle data at a certain level of abstraction (aggregate), encrypt (pseudonymize), or make it anonymous in order to limit the possible risks of using this data.
We also make different groups (profiles) of customers with the same characteristics or behavior. We can then respond to this. We choose which service best suits a group of customers. We adjust our offer accordingly.
The legitimate basis for collecting this data is the legitimate interest of Sales In Motion.
