If the User wishes to know how the Publisher uses their Personal Data, request rectification, or object to their processing, the User can make a written request to the following address:

8.5. Non-Disclosure of Personal Data

The Publisher refrains from processing, hosting, or transferring the collected information to a country outside the European Union or recognized as “inadequate” by the European Commission without prior notification to the client. However, the Publisher retains the freedom to choose its technical and commercial subcontractors on the condition that they provide sufficient guarantees in compliance with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR: n° 2016-679).

The Publisher is committed to taking all necessary precautions to preserve the security of the Information and above all ensure that it is not disclosed to unauthorized individuals.

The incident notification procedures consider legal obligations, whether from the national or European level.

The Publisher is committed to fully informing users of any security-related matters concerning their accounts and providing all necessary information to help them comply with their own regulatory obligations.
