Sites used to refuse the "van der " in my last name all the time. Had to remove the whitespaces to get it to work.
Also, sites out my last name under v, which isn't how names are sorted here.
"van der Name" is usually written as "Name, van der" in printed lists to make checking for names easier.
And many dutch IT systems have a separate field for this. We call it a "tussenvoegsel". Which would roughly translate to a "middle addition". It's not a middle/second name either. Cause those are processed separately here as well.
