Terms of Service and Privacy Policy

The TOS page contains the simple part, easy to read and short. And the more in-depth ToS and privacy policy on a second page.

Ah, yes, and there is this thing about cookies, well, as internet user and especially as Dutch citizen you know all about cookies by now, right? So you either accept them or you don’t. I do not influence that. Besides these settings are stored on YOUR COMPUTER, so whatever. It is more that Google needs to comply with EU regulations than that I have anything to do with that, I think it made the internet pretty lousy, this whole cookie thing, and a money grab, since you probably worry a lot about your privacy but have your location on your phone switched on, right?

So, you either accept, or you don’t, your experience on my website will not be any different, only in the Google Ad-department you notice the ads are not personalized based on your internet behaviour. But it is written out somewhere below if you are interested in the details, you are looking for the item named “cookies”.

Now the legal stuff that really matters!

The simple part:

Who we are:
The website address is https://leavingholland.com.
I, Jeanette Slagt, am A Dutch Nomad, currently residing in Mexico. I have no fixed address. I am the owner of the website and al the products on it, both are my intellectual property and protected by copyright.

Generally this information is stored at Stripe Europe, in the user profile of the webshop, for tax purposes, information about you and finances is stored for as long as the information is needed for the purposes for which it is collected and used, and the legal requirement to continue to keep it has expired. For example, the order information will be stored for 5 years for tax and accounting purposes. This includes your name, email address and purchases
