Who we are
Huurhaas (huurhaas.nl) helps home-seekers respond first to new rental listings. Huurhaas is a trade name of Huijsz, registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KVK) under number 94725063. Privacy questions: contact@huurhaas.nl.
What data we process
1) Account and search profile: your email address and the search criteria you provide (cities, maximum rent, rooms, surface, wishes and — optionally — a gross income indication). 2) Alerts: which listing alerts we sent you and when, including delivery status. 3) Website statistics: pages visited, referring site and campaign codes, tied to a random, anonymous identifier in your browser. We use no advertising cookies or third-party trackers.
Why, and on what legal basis
We process your account, search profile and alerts to deliver the service you request (performance of contract). The income indication is used solely to filter out homes you demonstrably don't qualify for — it is never shared. Anonymous website statistics are processed on the basis of legitimate interest (knowing whether the site works).
Listing data
The homes in your alerts come from public listing pages of landlords and agencies. We show a short summary and always link to the source; you respond with the provider directly.
Sharing and retention
We never sell data. We use processors under EU rules: email delivery (Postmark) and hosting (Hetzner, Germany). Your account and search profile are kept for as long as your account exists; after deletion we erase them within 30 days. Statistics are kept for at most 12 months.
Cookies
Functional storage only: a login cookie when signed in and the anonymous statistics identifier. That's why you won't see a cookie banner here.
Your rights
You can access, correct or delete your data, and object to processing. Email contact@huurhaas.nl — we respond within 30 days. You can stop email alerts anytime via the unsubscribe link in every email. Complaints can also be filed with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (AP).
