Privacy Policy
Last updated: 29 September 2026
SCS Collective B.V. (“SCS Collective”, “we”, “us” or “our”) respects the privacy of the people we work with and is committed to handling personal data responsibly and transparently.
This Privacy Policy explains how we process personal data when you visit our website, contact us, work with us, or otherwise interact with SCS Collective.
1. Who we are
The controller responsible for the processing described in this Privacy Policy is:
SCS Collective B.V.
Keizersgracht 127
1015 CJ Amsterdam
The Netherlands
Email: privacy@scscollective.eu Website: scscollective.eu
SCS Collective B.V. is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KVK) under number 42122457.
2. Personal data we process
The personal data we process depends on how you interact with us.
It may include your name, organisation, position, business contact details, correspondence with us and information you provide in connection with an enquiry, potential engagement, professional relationship, recruitment process or other collaboration.
In connection with our professional services, we may also receive personal data from clients, other firms within the SCS-Invictus network, professional advisers, business partners and publicly available sources.
When you use our website, limited technical information may also be processed, such as information about your browser, device, IP address and use of the website.
We seek to process only the personal data reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
3. How and why we use personal data
We may process personal data in order to respond to enquiries and communicate with you; discuss, establish and manage client and professional relationships; deliver or coordinate professional services; consider employment or collaboration opportunities; operate, maintain and protect our website and IT systems; comply with legal, regulatory and professional obligations; and manage and develop our business.
Depending on the circumstances, the legal basis for processing may be the performance of a contract or steps taken before entering into a contract, compliance with a legal obligation, our legitimate interests in operating and developing our business and providing professional services, or your consent where consent is required.
Where we process personal data solely on the instructions of a client or another organisation, that organisation may act as the controller and our processing will also be governed by the relevant engagement arrangements.
4. Website analytics and cookies
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies for purposes such as operating the website and, where applicable, understanding how it is used.
Where consent is required for non-essential cookies or similar technologies, they will not be activated until you have provided that consent.
You can change or withdraw your cookie preferences through the consent settings available on our website.
Further details, including an up-to-date description of the cookies and services used on the website, are available in our Cookie Policy.
5. Sharing personal data
SCS Collective works across jurisdictions and disciplines. Where appropriate in connection with an enquiry or engagement, we may share relevant personal data with other firms within the SCS-Invictus network, alliance firms, independent specialists or other professional advisers involved in providing or supporting the relevant services.
We may also use trusted service providers supporting our business, including providers of website hosting, IT, communications, document management and other administrative or professional services.
We do not sell personal data.
We may disclose personal data where required by law, regulation or professional obligations, or where reasonably necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
6. International transfers
Because SCS Collective works internationally, personal data may in some circumstances be transferred to or accessed from countries outside the European Economic Area.
Where such a transfer is subject to the GDPR, we take appropriate measures to ensure that personal data remains protected. Depending on the circumstances, these measures may include relying on a European Commission adequacy decision or appropriate contractual safeguards.
7. How long we retain personal data
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, taking into account applicable legal, contractual, accounting, tax and professional requirements.
The appropriate retention period therefore depends on the nature of the information and our relationship with the individual concerned.
8. Your rights
Subject to applicable data protection law, you may have the right to access personal data we hold about you; request correction or deletion; request restriction of processing; object to certain processing; receive certain information in a portable format; and withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
Requests relating to your personal data may be sent to privacy@scscollective.eu.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, the Dutch supervisory authority for data protection.
9. Security
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access.
10. External websites
Our website may contain links to websites operated by third parties.
SCS Collective is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those websites. We recommend reviewing the relevant third party’s privacy information when you leave our website.
11. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, website, business operations or legal requirements.
The current version will always be published on this page.
