Your rights

Since this is about your data, we think it is important that you can control your personal information at any time. You therefore have a number of rights, which you can exercise in accordance with the terms and modalities of European privacy legislation.

This statement therefore does not affect the exceptions that apply to processing for artistic and journalistic purposes.

Right of access
- You have the right to access your data. That is, you can check what data we have on you.
Right of rectification
- You have the right to have your data rectified. It could be that we have data about you that is incorrect or no longer correct. We kindly ask you to inform us if your personal data has changed so that your data in our databases is as correct and complete as possible.
Right to delete
- If you want us to stop storing or using your data, you can delete your data with us. However, we are not always obliged to delete your data when you request it. We are only required to do so in the cases stipulated by law.
Right to restriction
- You can ask us to restrict the processing of your data. In that case, we will continue to keep your data, but will restrict its use. This happens, for example, when you believe that your data is incorrect and you do not want us to continue processing it until it is amended. We are not always obliged to comply with such requests, though. We only have to do so in the cases stipulated by law.
Right to object to the use of your data.
- This means that you can object to the further use of your data by us. You can only do this when you have thorough reasons related to your specific situation. Again, we are not always obliged to comply with such a request.
Right to withdraw consent
- If the processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent. However, this withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of the processing based on your consent that took place before its withdrawal.

When you ask us any of the above questions, we might request additional information before we can take further steps. We need to do this to verify that you are the correct person.

Data Retention

All our recordings in the context of our events, projects or competitions will be kept indefinitely in time in our archives. The data used in the recordings themselves will thus be kept indefinitely in time.

Other (personal) data related to your participation in our or other recordings will not be kept longer than necessary for the intended purpose.

Data access

Individuals wishing to exercise their aforementioned rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) should contact the Antwerp Pride Data Protection Officer via the 'Contact'-link. Choose subject “Privacy” and submit your request in the “Message” field. In all cases, we handle requests for access or modification of data on the basis of the provisions of the applicable laws and regulations.

In addition, in a respectful manner, you may also express your objection directly to the person making the recordings on the day of the event.

If you do not find our handling of your objection in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (AVG / GDPR), you can always submit a complaint to a supervisory authority. In Belgium this is the Data Protection Authority. More information about this can be found on theirwebsite.

Security of information

We maintain technology and operational security of a reasonable standard to protect all information provided by visitors through this Website from disclosure to or access, modification or destruction by unauthorized persons.

Changes to our Privacy Statement

We may update or modify this Image Rights Policy from time to time in our sole discretion. When we make changes, we will update the revision date listed above, and the updated or amended version will apply to you and your information as of the revision date. We encourage you to review this Image Right Policy periodically so that you are always aware of how we are protecting your information.

Protection of children's privacy

Children and minors are vulnerable individuals. Therefore, we pay special attention to them in the context of recordings. One way we do this is by not making minors the main subject of our recordings or only if their parent or guardian agrees to their participation; again, we will process the data of participating minors pursuant to the agreement reached with the parent or guardian and AP.
