Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

Who we are

i-spark B.V., registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under KvK number 73401587, is a data and AI consultancy based in Groningen, the Netherlands. We run the website i-spark.nl.

We are the data controller for the personal data described here. That means we decide what we collect and why.

For anything about this policy or your personal data, email us at support@i-spark.nl.

What we collect

When you fill in a form on our site, such as the form to download our guide, we collect:

  • Your name
  • Your professional email address

Our forms may also record basic technical details automatically, such as the date and time you submitted and the page you submitted from.

We do not ask for sensitive personal data through our forms, and we’d rather you didn’t send any.

Why we use it, and our legal basis

Send you what you asked for. If you request a guide or resource, we use your email to deliver it and confirm your request. Legal basis: taking steps at your request.

Send you our newsletter, if you opted in. If you ticked the box to receive Let’s debrief, our newsletter, we use your email to send it. Legal basis: your consent. You can withdraw it anytime.

Reply to you. If you contact us, we use your details to answer. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in responding to you.

Keep records of consent. We keep a record of who signed up and what they agreed to, so we can show consent was given. Legal basis: our legitimate interest and our legal obligations.

We do not use your data to make automated decisions about you, and we do not profile you.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your data to anyone.

We use a few trusted services to run the site and handle sign-ups. They only process your data on our instructions:

  • Our website host, Kinsta, which stores the site and its data.
  • Slack, which we use to get a notification when someone signs up. Your name and email are sent to our private Slack channel.

Sending data outside the EEA

Some of our services are based outside the European Economic Area. Slack, for example, is a US company, so your name and email may be transferred to the United States. Where that happens, we rely on the safeguards the GDPR allows, such as standard contractual clauses or the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

How long we keep it

We keep your data only as long as we need it.

  • If you signed up for the newsletter, we keep your details until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them.
  • If you downloaded a guide but did not opt in to anything else, we keep the record for 12 months and then delete it.

You can ask us to delete your data sooner at any time.

Your rights

Under the GDPR, you have the right to:

  • See the data we hold about you
  • Correct it if it’s wrong
  • Ask us to delete it
  • Ask us to limit how we use it
  • Object to us using it
  • Get a copy in a portable format
  • Withdraw your consent at any time, which won’t affect anything we did before you withdrew it

To use any of these, email us at support@i-spark.nl. 

Cookies

Our site uses essential cookies to work properly, and Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. We ask for your consent before setting any non-essential cookies. You can change your choice anytime.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we’ll change the date at the top. Please check back now and then.
