Privacy policy for business clients

If you have a contract with me for an illustration or design project, the same privacy policy applies. As you are (probably) well aware, me doing business with you requires for me to know your KVK number, adress and/or email/phone info as this is required for me to incorporate into admin by law. However, I can remove your contact information from my adress book/email adress book if you so desire. Feel free to contact me on annalenaillustrations@gmail.com for any inquiries regarding this.
