How do we protect your personal data?

We have implemented technical and organizational security measures to ensure the security, integrity, and confidentiality of all your personal data, to prevent it from being distorted, damaged, or accessed by unauthorized third parties. We ensure an appropriate level of security, taking into account the state of knowledge, implementation costs, and the nature, scope, context, and purposes of processing as well as the risks and their likelihood.

Furthermore, it is your responsibility to ensure the confidentiality of the password allowing access to your account. Do not share this information with anyone. If you share your computer, remember to log out.

In what cases do we share your personal data?

  1. Sharing your personal data with third-party companies
    When browsing the Website, your personal data may be transmitted to external service providers. These third parties provide a service on our behalf and in our name to ensure the proper functioning of the services.
    Personal data may be transferred to countries outside the European Union for the purpose of processing your requests and hosting and securing personal data. In accordance with GDPR, all transfers of personal data to a country outside the European Union and/or not offering a level of protection considered adequate by the European Commission have been subject to cross-border flow agreements compliant with the standard contractual clauses issued by the European Commission and declared to the CNIL.
    Unless a third party asks you to accept their own privacy policy and terms of use, third-party companies that have received communication of your personal data have committed to process your personal data solely for the implementation of our services. We will never share your personal data with third-party companies for marketing and/or commercial purposes without obtaining your prior consent.
  2. Sharing with authorities
    We may be required to disclose your personal data to administrative or judicial authorities when such disclosure is necessary for the identification, apprehension, or prosecution of any individual likely to prejudice our rights, any other user, or a third party. We may finally be legally required to disclose your personal data and cannot oppose this in such cases.
  3. How long do we retain your personal data?
    We will only retain your personal data for the duration of your registration on the website to ensure your identification when connecting to your account and to enable the provision of services.
    Thus, if you unsubscribe from the Website, your personal data will be deleted and only retained in archive form for the purpose of establishing proof of a right or contract.
    In any case, we will retain your personal data for a period not exceeding that necessary with regard to the purposes for which they are processed in accordance with the uses set out in this policy and in compliance with laws and regulations.

This would be the case if you tried to access our content or services that require you to identify yourself. This would also be the case when we (or our service providers) could not recognize, for technical compatibility purposes, the type of browser used by your terminal, its language and display settings, or the country from which your terminal appears to be connected to the Internet.
