Privacy Statement
Trydent: custom software and technical consulting
Last updated: 23 October 2026
Trydent (Yvan de Wert) is responsible for the processing of personal data as described in this privacy statement. Trydent processes your personal data because you use Trydent's services and/or because you provide them to Trydent directly.
1. Data Trydent Collects
Trydent collects the following personal data: name, email address, company name, and any other information you provide through the contact form. To limit abuse of the contact form (a maximum of 5 messages per hour), Trydent stores a hash of your IP address together with the time of sending for each message sent, not the IP address itself. This hash is pseudonymous, not anonymous. The web server keeps standard access logs (including your IP address) for security and troubleshooting; these are rotated and deleted automatically. Trydent also collects pseudonymised analytics data through Google Analytics, but only after you have given explicit consent. This data is not anonymous: it is linked to a cookie ID. Google Analytics 4 does not store IP addresses. The demo Plaat tot offerte (demo.trydent.nl) works differently from the other demos. Only the flattened part contours (vertex lists in millimetres) are sent from your browser to Trydent's server; the DXF file itself stays in your browser. The server processes these contours in memory only, does not store them and does not write them to log files, which hold only counts, timings and status. No third parties are involved. The other demos run entirely in your browser.
2. Purpose of Processing
Trydent processes your personal data to respond to your inquiries, to improve this website, and to comply with legal obligations under Dutch law.
3. Cookies
This website uses functional cookies (necessary for the website to function) and analytics cookies (Google Analytics). Analytics cookies are only placed after you give explicit consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time via the cookie icon in the footer. Functional cookies do not require consent under Article 11.7a of the Dutch Telecommunications Act. The contact form uses one such functional session cookie (PHPSESSID) for CSRF protection; it is strictly necessary and therefore requires no consent.
4. Your Rights
Under the GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, or delete your personal data. You also have the right to withdraw your consent and to object to the processing of your personal data. To exercise these rights, please contact Trydent at privacy@trydent.nl.
5. Data Retention
Trydent retains your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which they were collected, or as required by law. Contact form data is retained for a maximum of 2 years after the last interaction. The hash of your IP address and the timestamps for the message limit are kept in a temporary file on Trydent's own server; timestamps and files older than one hour are deleted automatically.
6. Third Parties
Trydent does not sell your personal data to third parties. Trydent shares data with Google Analytics only if you have given explicit consent. Trydent has a data processing agreement with Google to ensure your data is protected. This website and Trydent's email are hosted on a virtual private server (VPS) managed by Trydent, with its own mail server. Google Analytics data may be transferred to the United States; such transfers are covered by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

8. Complaints
If you have a complaint about the processing of your personal data, you can submit a complaint to the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens (Dutch Data Protection Authority) at https://www.autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl.
