Privacy policy

This site collects only the data you provide yourself, through one of the four forms below. No data is bought, enriched or resold.

• Contact form — name, email, phone and company if provided, subject and message, language. Purpose: to answer you. Retention: two years after the last exchange.
• Exhibitor application — company, VAT number, website, contact details, stand requirements, product categories, message. Purpose: to process your application. Retention: for the duration of the business relationship, then three years.
• Newsletter — your email address and language. Purpose: to send you show information. Retention: until you unsubscribe, possible at any time.
• Exhibitor account — email, encrypted password, name, language, and the content you publish (profile, news). Purpose: to run your space. Retention: as long as the account exists.

The site sets no advertising trackers and uses no third-party analytics. There is no profiling, no automated decision-making, and no transfer of data outside the European Union. No payment data passes through this site: ticketing is operated by an external provider under its own policy.

You may at any time request access to your data, its correction or deletion, restrict its processing, or object to it. You may also request your data in a readable format. A simple request to info@bike-brussels.be is enough; a reply follows within a month. If the answer does not satisfy you, you may contact the Belgian Data Protection Authority (dataprotectionauthority.be).

Passwords are stored as encrypted hashes, never in clear text. The session is a technical cookie, sent only to the server, valid for thirty days. Access to the data is restricted to the organising team.
