Privacy Policy

Effective 12 October 2026 · 1amsterdamdigital.com & all its pages

We collect only what we need to reply to you, assess fit & deliver our work. We never sell your data, and analytics & ad cookies run only if you accept them.

1.Who we are

1 Amsterdam Digital, based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, is the controller of your personal data under the EU GDPR and, for UK visitors, the UK GDPR. As a small business we have no Data Protection Officer; the founder answers every privacy question at hello@1amsterdamdigital.com.

If you've accepted cookies and send a form, a hashed version of your email may go to Google or Meta to confirm an ad led to your enquiry. Your answers are never shared.

5.Who we share it with

We never sell your data. We share it only with providers working for us under a data processing agreement: Google (Workspace, Analytics, Ads), Meta, Netlify, Zoho CRM, Zapier and our accountant. Client briefs may go to vetted freelancers or creators under confidentiality.

Outside Europe. Where a provider handles data in the US or elsewhere, we rely on the EU US Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses (and UK equivalents).
