2 – Special categories of personal data
Our website and services are not intended for persons under the age of 16, unless they have the consent of a parent or legal guardian. We cannot verify whether a visitor is over 16. We therefore recommend that parents are involved in the online activities of their children.
If you believe that we have collected personal data from a minor without consent, please contact us at info@rijplatform.nl. We will delete this information as soon as possible.
3 – Purpose and legal basis for processing
Verkeersschool Rij Platform processes your personal data for the following purposes:
- Performance of the agreement – scheduling and providing driving lessons, booking exams at the CBR and other services
- Processing payments and sending invoices

- To inform you of changes to our services and products
- To give you the opportunity to create an account in our student app or planning system

- Legitimate interest – for communication about our services

4 – Automated decision-making
Verkeersschool Rij Platform uses the planning system Plango (Plan-Go BV) for scheduling driving lessons, tracking lesson progress and managing student data. This system supports our administrative and operational processes.
Final decisions regarding your driving education, exam readiness and planning are always made by an employee or instructor of Verkeersschool Rij Platform, not solely by automated systems.

- Financial administration (invoices, payments): 7 years based on the statutory retention obligation (Tax Authority)
- Email communication: up to 2 years after the last contact

- Plango (Plan-Go BV) – our planning and management system for driving schools
- Payment processors – for processing payments
- Accountant/bookkeeper – for financial administration and tax returns
With all parties that process your data on our behalf, we conclude a data processing agreement to ensure the same level of security and confidentiality. Verkeersschool Rij Platform remains responsible for these processing activities at all times.
