Who we are

The Sourcing Engine is a product of FTR ST8 B.V. (Dutch Chamber of Commerce no. 98243128), which operates this website, thesourcingengine.io, and is the controller of the personal data described in this notice. For anything in this notice, contact us at demo@thesourcingengine.io.

What we collect

This website has no forms. To book a demo you pick a time on our booking page in Google Calendar and enter your name, email address and company there; team size, and a line on the vacancy you'll bring and how you found us, are optional. If you email us, we receive what you write. The site sets no cookies and runs no advertising trackers. It counts visits without cookies; see "Visit statistics" below.

Why and on what basis

We use your details to prepare and hold the demo you booked, to answer your questions, and to see which channels bring people to a demo (the optional "how did you find us"). The legal basis is legitimate interest (GDPR art. 6(1)(f)) — responding to a request you made, and knowing which channels work. We do not send marketing email.

Where your data goes

Your booking is made on a Google Calendar booking page and lands in the calendars of the colleagues who run our demos. Email reaches our mailbox. Both are hosted by Google (Google Workspace), which processes them on our behalf. Nothing is stored on this website. Vercel, our hosting provider, processes technical request logs to serve the site, and counts visits for us (see "Visit statistics"). We do not sell your data and we do not share it for advertising.

Visit statistics

We count page visits and button clicks with Vercel Web Analytics, without cookies. Vercel, our hosting provider (Vercel Inc., USA), does this on our behalf under its data processing agreement. To tell one day's visits apart, it makes a hash of your browser's request and discards it after 24 hours. We look only at totals (page, referrer, country, device type, campaign tag, which button was clicked), keep them for at most 24 months, never combine them with your booking and never try to identify you. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in knowing which pages help people book a demo (GDPR art. 6(1)(f)). You can object at any time by email: demo@thesourcingengine.io.

How long we keep it

We keep your booking and anything you email us for 12 months after our last contact, then delete it.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you can ask for access to your data, correction, erasure, restriction of processing, or a portable copy, and you can object to processing based on legitimate interest. Email demo@thesourcingengine.io and we'll act on it. You also have the right to complain to your supervisory authority.

Changes and contact

If this notice changes, we update this page and the date at the top. Questions? Email demo@thesourcingengine.io.
