Data from applicants for employee or for hire as specialists or consultants, which we collect are names, email addresses, phone numbers and the information provided in a curriculum vitae. Some of the data collected by Wuunder consists of data relating to an identifiable individual (“Personal Data”).
Wuunder collects, stores, uses or processes otherwise material data about each shipment we handle so that we can deliver those shipments efficiently and in accordance with customer expectations. Wuunder uses data about its customers, their shipments and their shipping and/or receiving profile to provide or improve the services we offer to our customers, to inform our customers of additional services that may be of interest, to pursue our legitimate business interests (including conducting trend analysis and market studies), to set prices, to establish credit, to bill, and to comply with government regulations applicable to us or our subsidiaries.
The personal data we collect are processed only in compliance with the foregoing purposes and enables Wuunder to provide its services and we do not retain this data longer than is legally permitted and/or necessary for this purpose. If no legal deadline applies, personal data will be destroyed as soon as this does not serve any legitimate purpose.
Purposes and bases personal data
For the following purposes, personal data is used on the Wuunder platform (browser, plug-in, extension and MyWuunder), Wuunder websites, Wuunder social media channels (Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, Instagram, Mailchimp) and in (online) campaigns via Google, among others.
- To carry out the service offered and thus the agreement: to send and receive documents, parcels and pallets efficiently, conveniently and personally.
- Being able to track every shipment by sender, receiver and Wuunder’s customer service department in order to recognize any issues early and take timely action, completely relieving sender and receiver (not having to worry about it).
- Allowing sender and receiver to easily communicate about the shipment through the platform, with each other, with Wuunder’s customer service department and with the transportation parties.
- For updates on the (current) developments of Wuunder, the logistics market and its partners, enabling shippers and recipients to make better use of our services.
- For, among other things, but not exclusively, Wuunder’s legitimate interest in the context of analysis purposes to further improve our service to sender and recipient and tailor products even better to the needs of our customers.
- For, among other things, but not exclusively, Wuunder’s legitimate interest in the context of recruiting new customers and (re)activating existing customers.
- For including, but not limited to, Wuunder’s legitimate interest in recruiting, collaborating and communicating with business partners (carriers, couriers and drop-off points).
- For, among other things, but not exclusively, recruitment of employees and hiring of consultants and specialists.
The above data processing operations may also be justified if the data subject has given consent to this data processing. This consent may be withdrawn at any time. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of personal data processed prior to the revocation. Wuunder shall at all times ensure that any data processing complies with a legitimate purpose. Furthermore, Wuunder always includes the requirements of proportionality and subsidiarity in its processing of Personal Data.
Third Party
While we collect and use data about our customers, we may use subcontractors to process that data for the purposes mentioned in the previous paragraph. For example, we cooperate with partners in the areas of IT services and logistics (including transport companies such as PostNL and DHL). However, Wuunder only transfers your data if this is permitted under European data protection legislation. In addition, we may ask our subsidiaries to process the data, for those purposes, on our behalf. These suppliers and/or subsidiaries must keep this data confidential and may not use the data for any other purpose. In addition, as we expand our business, we may buy or sell subsidiaries or business units. As part of these transactions, data of the subsidiaries’ or business units’ customers may be part of the transferred business assets. We continuously monitor compliance with the provisions of applicable local laws and regulations by third-party processors, such as suppliers and subcontractors, of Personal Data in our possession.
For the delivery of shipments, Wuunder cooperates with external transport companies. These carriers receive only the necessary data to process the shipment and deliver the package to you. For more information on the carrier’s use of your data, please refer to the privacy statement on the website of the respective carrier. The logistics partner is involved in the delivery to you as an independently responsible party. However, in order to provide customers with optimal service, Wuunder tracks each order on behalf of the shipper and we forward the carrier’s most important emails about the delivery of your package to you.
Fair and secure processing of your Personal Data
When processing personal data, Wuunder adheres to the rules prescribed by privacy legislation. This means that we only collect and process personal data if there is a basis and purpose for doing so. Only the personal data that are necessary are collected and the personal data are then processed only for that specific purpose. In doing so, we keep the nature of the personal data in mind and adjust an appropriate technical and organizational level of security accordingly. You can therefore rest assured that we handle personal data carefully, securely and confidentially.
Transfer of personal data
In order to perform our services, we store data within the European Economic Area (“EEA”). However, some of the data we collect may be transferred to or stored at a destination outside the EEA, for example because one of our third party service providers is located there. When this occurs, we ensure that this is done in a secure and lawful manner.
Access and correction
From the law, every user of our services has the following rights:
- right to information about processing operations;
- right to access his data;
- right to correct the data if it is incorrect;
- right to erasure of data and ‘right to be forgotten’
- right to restriction of data processing
- right to object to data processing
- right to transfer his data (data portability)
- right not to be subject to automated decision-making.
To best safeguard your rights, it is possible to contact Wuunder at [email protected] to find out what data Wuunder has collected about you. We will respond to your request within 4 weeks (but usually sooner). If we cannot give you access to your Personal Data, we will always provide the reasons for this refusal. Wuunder may also refuse a request if the request is excessive or unlawful. In order to have correct, up-to-date and complete data, we ask you to notify us of any incorrect data. We will then adjust the incorrect or outdated data.

Collecting data on the Wuunder platform
Users can visit most parts of this platform without revealing their identity or disclosing information about themselves. However, in order to use some of our interactive services, they will have to identify themselves. On this platform, Wuunder may ask users to provide Personal Data. This data may potentially be shared with our subsidiaries.
Active data collection and purpose
While using or visiting our platform, Wuunder actively collects data about visitors by asking specific questions and allowing you to communicate directly with us via email/chat.
