With the GDPR, you have a transparent understanding of your personal data and how it is used. As part of GraydonCreditsafe's commitment to open and transparent data processing, we have made the following processes available to you.
1 - Submit a GDPR application:
- Email us at [email protected]
- Indicate "GDPR request" in the subject and in the email.
Before we can provide you with further assistance, we need some information from you in order to confirm who you are. Please include these details in the email of your "GDPR request".
- Company name of the applicant
- Full name of applicant
- Business email address of applicant
- Business telephone number of applicant
- Customer reference number
- Proof of identification and address
(allowing us to verify your identity)
Once we have this information, the following options are available:
- Subject Access Requests (SAR)
In a 'SAR' request, you can review all the information we have about you and make any necessary changes to that information (if justified).
- Request for rectification:
If you believe that the information in the GraydonCreditsafe database is inaccurate or incomplete, please provide details of what the inaccurate data is and evidence to support any correction.
* GraydonCreditsafe is obliged to reply within 30 days of submitting the request, but this period may be extended by two months if the request for rectification is complex.
** Please note that some of the data GraydonCreditsafe holds comes from public and/or governmental sources and that it may be necessary to direct your request to that external body in order to make a correction.
- Right of deletion (right to be forgotten):
Under GDPR, you have the right to request that your personal data be deleted, however, this does not provide an absolute "right to be deleted".
If you believe you have legitimate reasons to request "Right of Deletion", you have the opportunity to request this by providing as much supporting evidence as possible to GraydonCreditsafe. Individuals have the right to suppress or block the processing of personal data. This right can be exercised where:
- You dispute the accuracy of the personal data
- You consider that there are justified reasons for restricting the processing.
- The retained information is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
If you wish to suppress or block personal data, please provide as much information as possible (including evidence or screenshots of where you believe the data should be kept and in particular where you believe it should be suppressed/deleted).
2 - Unsubscribe from GraydonCreditsafe marketing purposes:
If you use several business email addresses, please inform [email protected] that you no longer wish to receive communications from these email addresses.
* Please note that you clearly state in the email: "I do not wish to receive any more communications". This is the only way to ensure that you will no longer receive email advertisements from GraydonCreditsafe as a marketer.
- Email Sent from GraydonCreditsafe as a "marketer":
GraydonCreditsafe also markets some of its own products and services by email. When GraydonCreditsafe is the marketer, we are always identified as such in the content of the mailing. Any email received from GraydonCreditsafe will contain the appropriate unsubscribe instructions.
If you wish to unsubscribe from GraydonCreditsafe's email marketing communications, please send an email to [email protected] or click on the 'opt-out link' in each communication, described as "unsubscribe? Click Here" in the footer of each marketing email.
- GraydonCreditsafe's email database
GraydonCreditsafe maintains a database of permission-based email addresses which GraydonCreditsafe uses to keep you informed about various topics by email (such as offers, new insights, tips & tricks, updates, etc.). If you wish to unsubscribe from these marketing communications, please send an email to [email protected] from the email address you wish to unsubscribe from.
If you unsubscribe from the GraydonCreditsafe email database, you may continue to receive emails from other GraydonCreditsafe partners to which you initially subscribed. You must also unsubscribe from the partner if you no longer wish to communicate with a GraydonCreditsafe-nominator.
* Please make sure that you clearly state in the email: "I do not wish to receive any more communications". This is the only way to ensure that you will no longer receive emails from GraydonCreditsafe as a marketer.
Finally, GraydonCreditsafe Belgium does NOT sell email data to third parties.
- Elimination of direct mail (Postal Communications):
As a responsible company, we respect your choice not to receive direct mail advertising from us. You may contact GraydonCreditsafe directly to opt out of receiving mail marketing promotions. Turning off direct mail marketing from GraydonCreditsafe will only stop the mailings.
* Please note that you may continue to receive direct mail as advertisers often work with multiple data providers.
You can reach us via [email protected] or by registered mail to:
Creditsafe Belgium nv
Steenweg Op Zellik 12

* As already mentioned, please be as complete as possible if you wish to unsubscribe. We need some information from you to confirm who you are (your full name, company name, postal address, full telephone number and business email address). Please include these details in your application.
** Please indicate clearly that you want to be removed. If you move or change your name, you must unsubscribe again with your new address or name. When you unsubscribe from GraydonCreditsafe, your data will not be removed from the GraydonCreditsafe marketing database. GraydonCreditsafe will mark your data as "Do not mail" for a period of 5 years. If GraydonCreditsafe were to completely remove your data, we would not know your preferences.
- Elimination of Telemarketing:
Responsible marketing companies respect your choice not to receive telemarketing calls. GraydonCreditsafe takes into account and is fully compliant with the "Do-Not-Call-Me-List".
* Exception: unless the company or person in question indicates (in writing) that they may be contacted or if a request is made for more information about GraydonCreditsafe's services.
You can also contact GraydonCreditsafe directly to be suppressed from the GraydonCreditsafe telemarketing lists. By disabling GraydonCreditsafe telemarketing, the telemarketing using the GraydonCreditsafe marketing data will stop.
