How do we treat your personal information on ctgb.nl?
For example, if you are responsible for submitting an application or you would like to participate in our workshop, we will require certain personal information so that we can invoice you for the costs. All of our forms include information about why we have requested the data and the purpose for which it will be used. The Dutch Board for the Authorisation of Plant Protection Products and Biocides (Ctgb) requests as little data as possible and shall only process this information if it is legally required to do so and shall use it for the specific purpose for which it is required; e.g. handling your request or application and/or for invoicing purposes.
