Personal data confidentiality and protection policy

Following the entry into force, on 25 May 2018, of European Regulation No 2016/679 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, we are updating our personal data protection policy.

Such data corresponds to any information allowing you to be identified, directly or indirectly, as a natural person.

This personal data protection policy (hereafter the “Policy”) is intended to inform you what data we collect, why we collect it and the basis on which we collect it, as well as how we use and store that data and your rights regarding that data. Please read this Policy carefully to find out and understand our practices regarding the processing of your personal data.

Please note that this Policy may be amended or supplemented at any time by our departments, in particular to comply with any legal, regulatory, case-law or technological developments. You should therefore consult this Policy regularly to be informed of any changes.

We must inform you that we are entitled, where applicable, to object to manifestly unreasonable requests (due to their number, their repetitive or systematic nature) as well as requests in breach of the rights of third parties.

A request may be sent in writing to the address mentioned above, using the template developed by the CNIL.

 

  • Restriction right

You are entitled to request restricted processing.

A request may be sent in writing to the address mentioned above, using the template developed by the CNIL.

We must inform you that this right can only be implemented if your data is processed automatically (paper files are therefore not included) and on the basis of your prior consent or the performance of a contract signed with you.

To exercise this right, please contact us as follows: communication@even.fr

You are entitled to provide us with specific instructions regarding the fate of your personal data after your death, in particular with regard to its storage, removal and communication in relation to any processing carried out by us.

  • Response times

We undertake to respond to your request to access, correct or object to your personal data or any other request for additional information within a reasonable period, which shall not be more than ONE (1) month from receipt of your request.

However, we may extend that period by an additional two months depending on the complexity and number of requests. You will then be notified of the extended response time within one month of your request.

 

  • Right to contact the competent supervisory authority

In case of any issues, you are entitled to file a complaint with the CNIL: https://www.cnil.fr/fr/plaintes

 

  • Withdrawal of consent

You are also entitled to withdraw your consent to personal data processed on the basis of your consent.
