  1. Objective of this policy

 

  • Information

This Declaration informs you (as the data subject) about how we process your personal data, in our capacity as controller, in accordance with all applicable data protection and privacy laws and regulations, including the “RGPD” – Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (hereinafter referred to as “Data Protection Laws”), and in particular pursuant to Articles 13 and 14 of the RGPD.

This policy is also intended to inform you of your rights regarding the processing of your personal data.

The Data Controller undertakes to respect and protect the personal data encountered in the course of his activities.

Personal Data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An “identifiable natural person” is defined as a natural person who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier, such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or to one or more elements specific to his physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity. This includes, for example (and not limited to), your name, home and business addresses, telephone number, email address, credit card or other billing information, certain data about your business activities, certain data about your activities on our website, and other information you provide us.

This Declaration describes how we manage Personal Data collected through the Website and through other means (for example, from forms, telephone calls, e-mails, purchase orders, or other communications with you).

We process your data in accordance with all applicable laws regarding the protection of personal data and privacy, including the “GDPR” – General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

By accessing and using the Website, you acknowledge that you have read and, where necessary, accept the terms of this Declaration and the processing and transfer of Personal Data in accordance with this Declaration.

 

  • Informed consent

In some cases (specified below), the legal basis for our processing is your informed consent. In such cases, the other purpose of this policy is to provide you with the information necessary to obtain valid consent from you.

Where our processing of personal data is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, but this withdrawal may not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out prior to this withdrawal. To withdraw your consent, you are invited to use the easy unsubscribe procedures provided to you by our communications tools or by sending us an e-mail (to the address below).

When our processing of personal data is based on your consent, it is our duty to be able to demonstrate that you have consented to the processing of your personal data. To do so, we retain data relating to your consent as long as we need to demonstrate our full and complete compliance with data protection laws.

If you are under 16 years of age, it is our duty to make reasonable efforts to verify, in such cases, that consent is given or authorized by the person having parental authority, taking into account the available technology. This explains why, if necessary, we may ask for more information about this holder of parental authority.
