Privacy Statement and Cookie Policy

Ally Institute highly values the protection of your personal data and respect of your privacy.

We do not need any personal data for the protocol that you can watch in the video on iedereenok.be.

Only if you would like personal coaching after completing the protocol -by filling in the questionnaire and receiving the personal report- we need your email address. This is personal data for which - after following the protocol and as such not via this privacy and cookie policy - we ask for your explicit consent via a checkbox.

We do everything to guarantee your privacy, which is why we treat your personal data with due care.

We strictly comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), the Act of 30 July 2018 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and other applicable laws and regulations.

This means that we do the following as a matter of course:

  • process your personal data (email address) in accordance with the purpose for which it was provided.
  • restrict the processing of your personal data to only the data that is needed for the purposes for which it is being processed;
  • take appropriate technical and administrative measures to guarantee the security of your personal data;
  • not pass on any personal data to other parties unless this is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which they were provided;
  • ensure that we are familiar with your rights regarding your personal data, that we want to point them out to you and respect them.

Ally Institute, located at Koning Albertlaan 31 in 3320 Hoegaarden, Belgium, is responsible for processing personal data as this is stated in this Privacy Statement.

Our Data Protection Officer (DPO) can be contacted at dpo@ally.institute. If you still have any questions after you have read this Privacy Statement, you can contact us at info@ally.institute. We will gladly help you.


Why do we process personal data?

If you want personal coaching after you have followed the protocol of iedereenok.be, we will process your email address so that we can contact you. Your request for personal coaching and your request to leave your email address in this respect will be asked - only then - via the separate checkbox.

Subject to the legal obligations, we use your data solely for the purpose for which we obtained them.


With whom do we share your personal data?

We collaborate with a number of processors to fulfil the above-mentioned purposes. We conclude a processing agreement with the company processing your data to ensure that these data benefit from the same security and confidentiality levels. Ally Institute remains responsible for such processing. For example, we use a third party for:

  • providing our internet environment (web hosting);
  • providing and protecting our ICT infrastructure;

Furthermore, we do not provide other parties with the data that you have given us unless this is required and allowed by law.

Within the framework of scientific studies, we guarantee full anonymity of all data, so that it can never be clear who is behind a particular profile.
