Personal data of website visitors younger than 16 years of age
The Urgent Vertalen website and/or service(s) do not intend to collect data from website visitors who are younger than 16 years of age. Unfortunately, we are not able to check whether a visitor is older than 16. Of course, a visitor younger than 16 years of age must ask permission from their parent(s) or guardian(s). We advise parent(s)/guardian(s) to be involved in the online activities of their child(ren). This prevents personal data from being collected unnecessarily and without your permission. If you are convinced that we have received personal data from a minor without your knowledge/consent, please contact us at info@urgentvertalen.nl. We will then of course remove this information.

- To call and/or email you in order to provide our services.
