Last updated: 28 September 2026
Who we are
This website, www.mkglobalconsulting.eu, is operated by MK Global Consulting EU, registered in Belgium under enterprise number 1041.279.360 and VAT number BE 1041.279.360.
MK Global Consulting EU is responsible for processing the personal data described in this Privacy Policy.
Our registered business and contact details are available in our Legal Notice. You can contact us regarding privacy matters at mala@mkglobalconsulting.eu.
Personal data we collect
We may collect the following personal data:
• Your name and surname
• Your email address and telephone number
• Your company name, job title and professional contact details
• Information you provide in a contact form, email, meeting request or other communication
• Information relating to a potential or existing business relationship
• Technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring website and website activity
• Your newsletter preferences, if newsletter subscription becomes available and you choose to subscribe
Please do not provide sensitive personal information through our contact form unless it is necessary for your enquiry.
How we collect your personal data
We collect personal data when you:
• Complete and submit a contact form
• Contact us by email, telephone or another communication channel
• Request information about our services
• Become a prospect, client, supplier or business partner
• Subscribe to a newsletter, if this option is made available
• Visit and interact with our website
Some technical information may be collected automatically through essential cookies, server logs and similar technologies. Optional analytics or marketing cookies will only be used where permitted and, when required, after you have provided consent.
Why we process your personal data
We may process your personal data to:
• Answer enquiries and communicate with you
• Provide information about our consulting and business-development services
• Prepare proposals, quotations or agreements
• Deliver and manage services requested by clients
• Manage prospective and existing business relationships
• Maintain our CRM and administrative records
• Protect the security and proper functioning of our website
• Comply with legal, accounting and tax obligations
• Send newsletters or marketing communications when you have provided consent or when another lawful basis applies
We will not send you newsletter communications merely because you contacted us through the general contact form. Newsletter subscription will require a separate choice.
Legal bases for processing
Depending on the circumstances, we process personal data on one or more of the following legal bases:
• Your consent
• Taking steps at your request before entering into a contract
• Performing a contract with you
• Compliance with a legal obligation
• Our legitimate interests in responding to enquiries, developing business relationships, maintaining our administration and protecting our website
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that lawfully occurred before the withdrawal.
Contact forms and HubSpot
Our website may use forms connected to HubSpot. When you submit a form, the information you provide may be transferred to and stored in HubSpot, which we use as a customer relationship management system.
We use this information to answer your enquiry, maintain appropriate business records and manage prospective or existing business relationships.
HubSpot may process personal data on our behalf in accordance with its contractual and data-protection commitments. Depending on its infrastructure and subprocessors, personal data may be processed outside the European Economic Area subject to appropriate safeguards.
Website hosting and email services
Our website is hosted using Hostinger. Hostinger may process limited technical information, including server logs, IP addresses and security information, to provide, maintain and protect the website.
We use Microsoft 365 for professional email and business communications. Microsoft may therefore process personal data contained in emails and related business records on our behalf.
We may also use professional advisers, IT providers, accountants or public authorities where access is necessary for their services or required by law.
We do not sell personal data.
International transfers
Some service providers or their subprocessors may process personal data outside the European Economic Area.
Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as an adequacy decision, Standard Contractual Clauses or other mechanisms permitted under applicable data-protection law.
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.
General enquiries and prospect information are normally retained for up to two years following the last meaningful contact, unless a longer period is justified by an ongoing business relationship, a potential legal claim or another legitimate reason.
Client, contractual, invoicing and accounting records may be retained for the periods required by Belgian law.
Newsletter information will be retained until you unsubscribe or withdraw your consent, subject to keeping a limited record when necessary to respect your opt-out request.
Cookies
Our website may use essential cookies required for security and proper operation.
If we introduce optional analytics, preference or marketing cookies, we will provide appropriate information and request consent where legally required. You will be able to refuse or withdraw consent for optional cookies.
You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect certain website functions.
