Purpose and legal basis of processing of personal data by Archie Europe

Archie Europe has a need to know people who are important for the continuity of its organization. These persons are mainly representatives of organizations with which Archie Europe may do business, does business, or has done business. This also includes persons who have an influence on the purchase, sale or advice with regard to CRM systems. In addition, records of current job applications, employees and those directly involved are kept. Archie Europe processes this personal data in order to guarantee its continuity, provide good service, and support good relationship management.

Personal data will never be shared with third parties without explicit permission, except when there is a legal requirement to do so. We may involve sub-processors in the performance of our services. These sub-processors will perform their services only on behalf of and under the responsibility of Archie Europe.

Legitimate interest in the processing of personal data

Archie Europe only processes personal data that is necessary for the successful completion of its organizational (Mission and Vision) and legal obligations. In this context, consideration will constantly be given to whether the interests of the organization (the responsible data processor) involved are greater or smaller than the interests of the data subject. Personal data is further recorded in order to comply with legal obligations.

Data subjects have the right to object to the processing of their personal data. This can be done by sending an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. This objection will be honored unless there is a legal obligation to process this personal data.

Retention periods for personal data

Archie Europe strives for data minimization. In the interests of lasting relationship management, personal data is stored. The retention period (under GDPR article 17.1 a/b) shall not be longer than deemed necessary to justify the purposes for which this data was collected.  

If a data subject indicates that they wish to make use of one of the privacy rights outlined in the GDPR (chapter 3, articles 12 through 23), Archie Europe will, after verification, comply as soon as possible. This can be requested by sending an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

Under certain conditions, data about organizations will be kept for longer periods, but this too will be deleted if there is no longer any purpose for which the retention of this data can be justified.

The following retention criteria are used in the context of these client relationships:

• Records of organizations without sales are kept for 5 years after the last contact;
  Records of organizations with sales are kept for 40 years after the last contact.
• When an organization’s records are deleted, all personal data related to these organizations will also be deleted.

The following retention criteria apply to personal data related to organizations:

• Personal data for which the last change or contact was less than 126 months ago
• Personal data with an up-to-date opt-in
• Personal data subject to a legal obligation
• Personal data for which active consent was obtained
• Personal data of staff and current job applicants
• Special personal data will not be stored unless this concerns data for which there is a legal obligation or for which consent has been given.

Data subjects' rights

Under the GDPR, Archie Europe's data subjects have the following rights:

• The right to data portability. That is to say, the right to transfer personal data.
• The right to be forgotten. That is to say, the right to have personal data deleted.

• The right to rectification and addition. This is the right to have changes made to personal data processed by the company.
• The right to restriction of processing. In other words, the right to have less data processed.

• The right to object. This means a data subject is entitled to object to the processing of their data.
