4. Sharing data with third parties
We only share your personal data with third parties to the extent necessary for the provision of our services. The parties we work with are:
| Partij / Party | Rol / Role | Land / Country | Grondslag / Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Resend, Inc. | Email delivery service (contact form and newsletter) | US | Data processing agreement + SCCs |

We never sell your personal data to third parties and do not provide it to other parties without your explicit consent, unless we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. at the request of a competent authority).
5. Transfers outside the EEA
Resend, Vercel and Google are based in the United States, a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA). The transfer of personal data to these countries takes place on the basis of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) established by the European Commission, which ensure an adequate level of protection for your data in accordance with the GDPR. Our database (Neon) runs in the EU, so no transfer outside the EEA applies to it.
6. Your rights as a data subject
Under the GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data. You can exercise them by contacting us at info@jennybhasin.com. We will respond to your request within four weeks.
- —Right of access: you have the right to know which personal data we process about you and to receive a copy (Art. 15 GDPR).
- —Right to rectification: you can have incorrect or incomplete data corrected (Art. 16 GDPR).
- —Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"): you can request that we delete your data, unless we have a legal obligation to retain it (Art. 17 GDPR).

We may ask you to verify your identity before processing your request, to prevent data from being disclosed to the wrong person.
7. Filing a complaint with the supervisory authority
If you believe that we are not processing your personal data correctly, you have the right to file a complaint with the Dutch supervisory authority:
Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens
Website: autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl
Phone: +31 88 – 1805 250
8. Security
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, unwanted disclosure and unauthorised modification. Our website is secured with HTTPS encryption (TLS). Access to contact messages is restricted to the data controller only.
9. Cookies and statistics
This website does not place third-party tracking cookies and does not use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics). Instead, we use our own cookieless statistics: we count page visits and clicks without placing a cookie on your device as a visitor.
To avoid counting the same visitor twice, we calculate a daily-rotating, encrypted code based on your IP address and browser type. This code changes automatically every day and cannot be traced back to you as an individual; we do not store IP addresses ourselves. This measurement records, among other things: which page was visited, which website you came from (only the domain, not the full link), your country, device type (mobile/tablet/desktop) and language preference.
The admin section of the website (accessible only to the website administrator) uses one technically necessary session cookie to stay logged in. This cookie is not placed for regular visitors.
Because we do not place a cookie on your device for this statistics measurement, no consent via a cookie banner is required for it.
10. Automated decision-making
We do not use automated decision-making or profiling based on your personal data.
11. Changes to this privacy policy
We may periodically update this privacy policy, for example due to changes in our services or new legislation. The most current version is always available on this page. In the event of material changes that affect the way we process your data, we will announce this on our website.
