Why is a privacy statement needed?

ILVO attaches great importance to respecting your privacy and strives for high-quality processing of your personal data. ILVO ensures that the processing of the personal data obtained is done in accordance with the legal and regulatory frameworks.

What (personal) data do we process and what do we process it for?

• App use requires an e-mail address (to be provided by the user during a one-time registration), which is necessary to receive the automated report via e-mail after submission of the data collected on-farm, and to allow log-in to the user account online (www.piglow.eu). After uploading the data (collected by the user) via the PIGLOW app, the e-mail address of the user will automatically be replaced by a unique artificial identifier, or pseudonym prior to data storage, processing and analysis.
• Hence, only pseudonymised data will be stored and analysed.
• The data will be automatically processed by ILVO and the report will be automatically sent to the e-mail address provided by the user during the one-time registration.
• Consequently, ILVO personnel will only have access to pseudonymised data for research purposes.

What are your rights in relation to your data?

A user can deactivate his/her PIGLOW user account online at any time (www.piglow.eu). However, the stored data cannot be cleared as these data are pseudonymised.

You can look at the information we have available about you at any time. If certain data is not found to be correct, you can have it corrected. The erroneous data will be deleted.

If you believe that we are improperly processing your data, you can complain to the Flemish Supervisor (Flemish Supervisory Committee for the processing of personal data).
