Privacy policy

Privacy at Welkomstap

Welkomstap helps newcomers understand practical choices in the Netherlands. This policy explains how https://welkomstap.nl handles information when you read a guide, use a comparison route, subscribe, or contact us.

1. Information we receive

We may receive your name, email address, topic, and message when you contact us or subscribe to an update. When you follow a partner route, we record a privacy-conscious click event such as the route, page, locale, and campaign parameters. We do not ask for health information and do not need it to use this site.

2. Why we use it

We use contact details to answer your message, operate the newsletter when you opt in, prevent abuse, understand which guides are useful, and keep our comparison and disclosure pages reliable. We do not sell personal data.

3. Partner routes and affiliate disclosure

Some links lead to third-party providers or licensed partners. Welkomstap may receive compensation when you continue through an activated partner route. The partner's own privacy notice applies after you leave Welkomstap; we do not receive your application or policy details through a normal click.

4. Health-insurance boundary

The health-insurance section provides general education only. We do not collect health data, make a personal recommendation, or act as your insurance adviser. Any personal comparison or application takes place on the licensed partner's website.

5. Cookies, consent, and analytics

We use essential cookies to keep the site working and consent-aware analytics to understand aggregate usage. Optional marketing or newsletter processing starts only after you choose it. You can change your consent choices through the site's privacy controls.

6. Retention and security

We keep contact and subscription records only for as long as needed for the stated purpose, legal obligations, or a legitimate operational record. Access is restricted and we use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards. No online service can promise absolute security.

7. Your rights and contact

You may ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction, or objection where applicable under GDPR. To make a request or report a privacy concern, email info@welkomstap.nl.
