Introduction
Rebuild Over 50 respects the privacy and personal information of everyone who visits our website, contacts us, subscribes to updates, or otherwise interacts with our content and services.
The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to explain how personal information may be collected, used, stored, protected, and, where necessary, shared.
We seek to handle personal information responsibly, transparently, fairly, and in accordance with applicable data protection legislation, including the General Data Protection Regulation where it applies.
This policy should be read together with our Website Disclaimer and Cookie Policy.
1. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to personal information collected through:
- the Rebuild Over 50 website;
- website contact forms;
- email correspondence;
- newsletter or email-update subscriptions, where offered;
- comments or other participation features, where enabled;
- competitions, surveys, downloads, digital products, memberships, or other services, where introduced;
- technical information generated through normal website use;
- other direct communication with Rebuild Over 50.
This policy applies whether information is collected electronically, in writing, or through direct communication.
2. Who We Are
Rebuild Over 50 is a health education and lifestyle platform for adults over 50. We publish videos, articles, discussions, and practical resources concerning health, nutrition, strength, mobility, healthy habits, resilience, purpose, and related subjects.
The controller responsible for the personal information described in this Privacy Policy is:
Controller: Rebuild Over 50
Trading name: Rebuild Over 50
Country: the Netherlands
Email: info@rebuildover50.com
Contact form: https://rebuildover50.com/contact/
We seek to collect only the information that is reasonably necessary for the purpose concerned.
3. Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with Rebuild Over 50, we may collect personal information including:
- your name;
- your email address;
- your telephone number where voluntarily provided;
- your postal or billing address where necessary for a requested service or transaction;
- correspondence and messages you send to us;
- information submitted through contact forms, surveys, comments, or subscription forms;
- subscription and communication preferences;
- order or payment-related information where products or services are offered;
- technical information such as an IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring website, pages viewed, and server or security logs;
- cookie and consent preferences;
- other information you voluntarily provide.
Most personal information is obtained directly from the individual concerned. Limited technical information may be collected automatically by the website, hosting provider, security services, or consented analytics tools.
4. How We Use Your Information
Personal information may be used to:
- respond to questions, messages, and requests;
- provide requested newsletters, updates, downloads, products, or services;
- administer comments, surveys, memberships, or other participation features;
- operate, maintain, secure, and improve the website;
- understand general website use where analytics has been enabled with the required consent;
- prevent fraud, spam, abuse, unauthorised access, and security incidents;
- manage purchases, subscriptions, refunds, or related records where applicable;
- establish, exercise, or defend legal claims;
- comply with legal, accounting, tax, or regulatory obligations.
Personal information will not be sold or rented to third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Rebuild Over 50 does not use personal information to make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
5. Lawful Basis for Processing
Where applicable, personal information is processed on one or more of the following lawful grounds:
- where you have provided consent;
- where processing is necessary to perform an agreement or take steps requested before entering into an agreement;
- where processing is necessary for legitimate interests such as responding to enquiries, operating the website, maintaining security, preventing abuse, and managing ordinary business administration, provided those interests do not override your rights and freedoms;
- where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation;
- where processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of an individual.
Where consent is relied upon, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
6. Sharing Your Information
Personal information may be shared only where reasonably necessary and permitted by law, including with:
- website hosting, backup, security, and technical service providers;
- WordPress and website-plugin providers;
- email, newsletter, and contact-form providers;
- payment processors and ecommerce providers where products or services are offered;
- analytics providers where analytics is enabled with the required consent;
- YouTube, Google, or other providers where external content or services are embedded or linked;
- professional advisers where legal, accounting, technical, or other assistance is reasonably required;
- public authorities where disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect legal rights.
Where a service provider processes personal information on our behalf, appropriate contractual and organisational safeguards will be used where required.
7. Health and Other Sensitive Information
Health-related information may constitute a special category of personal information and is subject to additional legal protection.
Please do not send medical records, detailed health histories, diagnostic information, medication lists, or other sensitive personal information through a general contact form or ordinary email.
Rebuild Over 50 does not provide individual medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment through its website or general communications.
If sensitive information is voluntarily provided, it will be handled only where there is a lawful basis and an additional legal condition for processing such information.
8. International Data Transfers
Some service providers may process personal information outside the European Economic Area.
Where an international transfer is subject to applicable data protection law, we will rely on an appropriate legal mechanism, such as an adequacy decision, approved standard contractual clauses, or another permitted safeguard.
You may contact us for further information about safeguards relevant to a particular transfer.
9. Data Minimisation
We seek to collect only personal information that is adequate, relevant, and reasonably necessary for the purpose concerned.
We periodically review the information we hold and delete or anonymise information that is no longer required, subject to legal, operational, accounting, or security obligations.
10. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal information against accidental loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration, and disclosure.
These measures may include access controls, secure hosting, software updates, backups, security monitoring, password protection, and limiting access to those who reasonably require it.
No method of online transmission or storage is completely secure. Absolute security therefore cannot be guaranteed.
11. Personal Data Breaches
Suspected personal data breaches will be assessed promptly and appropriate steps will be taken to contain, investigate, and address the incident.
Where required by law, a breach will be reported to the appropriate supervisory authority and affected individuals will be informed.
12. Data Retention
Personal information is not retained longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.
- Contact enquiries and ordinary correspondence may normally be retained for up to two years after the matter has concluded.
- Newsletter subscription information may be retained until you unsubscribe or withdraw consent, subject to retaining a minimal suppression record where necessary to respect your request.
- Transaction and accounting records may be retained for the period required by applicable tax and accounting law.
- Technical and security logs may be retained for the period reasonably necessary for security, troubleshooting, and abuse prevention.
- Cookie-consent records may be retained for the period reasonably necessary to demonstrate and manage consent choices.
- Information relevant to legal claims may be retained for the applicable limitation period.
13. Your Rights
Subject to applicable law and any relevant conditions or exemptions, you may have the right to:
- receive information about how your personal information is used;
- request access to your personal information;
- request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
- request deletion of personal information;
- request restriction of processing;
- object to processing based on legitimate interests;
- object at any time to direct marketing;
- request data portability where applicable;
- withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- lodge a complaint with a competent data protection authority.
Requests may be submitted using the contact details in Section 19. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
Where the General Data Protection Regulation applies, requests will normally be answered without undue delay and within one month, subject to any lawful extension.
14. Contact Forms and Email
When you contact us, the information you provide is used to read, manage, and respond to your message.
Contact-form submissions may be processed by the website host, WordPress, an email provider, and any form, security, or spam-prevention service used to operate and protect the form.
Relevant correspondence may be retained where reasonably necessary to maintain records, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, or comply with legal obligations.
15. Newsletters and Email Updates
If you subscribe to a newsletter or request email updates, your name, email address, subscription status, preferences, and related technical records may be used to provide those communications.
Newsletter communications will be sent only where there is an appropriate legal basis, normally your consent. You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in an email or by contacting us.
Newsletter provider: NO NEWSLETTER SERVICE CURRENTLY ACTIVE
16. Cookies and Website Analytics
The website may use cookies and similar technologies for essential website functions, security, remembering preferences, consent management, embedded content, and consented analytics.
Non-essential cookies and similar technologies will be used only after the required consent has been obtained.
Analytics provider: NO ANALYTICS CURRENTLY USED
Further information is provided in our Cookie Policy.
17. Embedded Content and Third-Party Websites
Pages may contain embedded videos or other content from third-party services, including YouTube.
Embedded content may behave as though you visited the third-party website directly. The provider may collect technical information, use cookies or similar technologies, and record interactions with the embedded content, subject to your consent where required.
Where technically available, we aim to use privacy-enhanced embedding options and to prevent non-essential third-party content from loading before the required consent has been given.
The website may also link to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites.
18. Changes to this Privacy Policy
Rebuild Over 50 may review and update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in applicable legislation, website functionality, services, technology, business activities, or recognised privacy practice.
The most recent version will always be published on this website. The date in the Document Information section indicates when the policy was last updated.
