Keep your customer data safe with the i-Reserve reservation system

What exactly is the Data Pro Code?

The Data Pro Code is a code of conduct approved by the Dutch Data Protection Authority and developed for ICT service providers that process personal data. The purpose of this code is to help organisations comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) by providing clear rules and guidelines.

By adhering to the Data Pro Code, an organisation demonstrates that it handles data with care and complies with all relevant laws and regulations. This goes beyond technical security alone; it is also about transparency, accountability, and an ethical approach to data. Companies that comply with the Data Pro Code, such as i-Reserve, receive an independently verified declaration – the Data Pro Statement – which sets out precisely how they handle data.

How does the Data Pro Code benefit you as a customer?

You may be wondering what this means for you as a customer. Simply put, it gives you certainty and peace of mind. Here are a few practical advantages of working with a supplier that complies with the Data Pro Code:
Transparency about data use: You gain clear insight into how data is processed, who has access to it, and what security measures are in place. This means you need never face any surprises and are always prepared to answer questions from your own customers.
Protection against risks: By choosing a partner that complies with the Data Pro Code, you know you are working with a party that takes a proactive approach to data security. This reduces the likelihood of data breaches and the resulting reputational damage or legal issues.
Future-proofing: The Data Pro Code aligns with the GDPR and future legislative developments. This means you do not constantly need to check whether your systems are up to date with new regulations – your supplier has already taken care of that.
Rapid response to incidents: Should any problems arise, you are working with a party that is obliged to act appropriately and transparently. This saves you time, stress, and potentially complex legal issues.

What do the privacy changes in 2025 mean for you?

From 2025 onwards, data protection in Europe will become even more important, with new and tightened regulations. Governments are placing greater responsibility on businesses, which means that as an entrepreneur you will need to pay extra attention to how you process and secure data. New obligations will require, for example, more detailed reporting on your data processing activities and providing customers with greater insight into how their data is used.

For suppliers such as i-Reserve, which already operate to the strictest standards of the Data Pro Code, these changes present no problem. We are ready for the future, so that you can be too. Ask yourself whether your current supplier offers the same level of preparedness and compliance.
