7.1 Personal data collection controller

For Personal Data collected as part of the creation of the User's personal account and their navigation on the Site, the data controller is: Les Jardins de la Valette OF, represented by Sylvain Couderc, its legal representative.

As data controller, we undertake to comply with the framework of the legal provisions in force. Each time we process Personal Data, we take all reasonable steps to ensure the accuracy and relevance of the data with regard to the purposes for which we process it.

7.2 Purpose of the data collected

We may process all or part of the data:

• to allow navigation on the Site and the management and traceability of the services ordered (connection data, billing, order history, etc.);
• to prevent and combat computer fraud: equipment used, IP address, password (hashed);
• to improve navigation on the Site: connection and usage data;
• to carry out optional satisfaction surveys: email address;
• to run communication campaigns (SMS, email): phone number, email address.

7.3 Right of access, rectification and objection

In accordance with the European regulations in force, Users have the following rights:

• right of access (article 15 GDPR) and rectification (article 16 GDPR), update and completeness of data; right to lock or delete personal data (article 17 GDPR);
• right to withdraw consent at any time (article 13-2c GDPR);
• right to restriction of processing (article 18 GDPR);

Users may also lodge a complaint with the supervisory authorities, in particular the CNIL.

7.4 Non-disclosure of personal data

We refrain from processing, hosting or transferring Information collected on our Clients to a country located outside the European Union or recognized as "inadequate" by the European Commission without first informing the customer. We remain free to choose our technical and commercial subcontractors on condition that they offer sufficient guarantees with regard to the requirements of the GDPR.

08Incident notification

Whatever the efforts made, no method of transmission over the Internet and no method of electronic storage is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security. If we became aware of a security breach, we would notify affected users so that they could take appropriate steps.

No personal information of the user is published without their knowledge, exchanged, transferred, assigned or sold on any medium to third parties. Only the hypothesis of a buyout of Les Jardins de la Valette and its rights would allow the transmission of said information to the potential acquirer, who would in turn be bound by the same obligation to retain and modify the data.

Security

To ensure the security and confidentiality of Personal Data, we use networks protected by standard measures: firewall, pseudonymization, encryption and password. During processing, we take all reasonable steps to protect them against any loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.
