• to allow navigation on the Site, the management and traceability of performances and services ordered by the user;

• to send a recapitulative e-mail prior to the stay, as well as a satisfaction survey post-stay;
• to conduct communication campaigns (4-6 newsletters per year, from which it is possible to unsubscribe).

SAS ELC does not sell your personal data, which is, therefore, only used out of necessity or for statistical and analytical purposes.

7.3 Right of access, rectification and opposition

In compliance with applicable European Union regulations, users of the site may exercise the following rights:

• Right of access (article 15 GDPR) and rectification (article 16 GDPR), right to update or complete User data
• Right to have User data blocked or deleted (article 17 GDPR), when it is inaccurate, incomplete, unclear, out of date, or for which collection, use, disclosure or storage is prohibited;

• Right to limit the processing of User data (article 18 GDPR);
• Right to opposition of user data processing (article 21 GDPR);
• Right to the portability of data which users have supplied, when this data is processed by automated means and based on the user’s consent or on a contract (article 20 GDPR);
• Right to define the fate of Users’ data after their death and to choose to whom SAS ELC will have to communicate (or not) his data, who shall be a third party that they will have previously designated.

From the time it learns of the death of a user and in the absence of instructions on his part, SAS ELC agrees to destroy their data, unless retention of it is necessary for evidentiary purposes or to meet a legal obligation.

If the user wishes to know how SAS ELC uses their personal data, or if they wish to ask for their data to be rectified or to oppose its processing, they can contact SAS ELC in writing at the following address: 153 route de la Madrague – Giens – 83400 HYERES, France for the attention of Nicolas QUERON, Data Protection Officer.

In this case, the User must indicate the Personal Data that he would like SAS ELC to correct, update or delete, by identifying himself precisely with a copy of a piece of identification (identification card or passport).

Requests for deletion of Personal Data will be submitted to obligations that are imposed on SAS ELC by law, in particular in terms of retention or archiving of documents. Lastly, users of the site may lodge a complaint with the supervisory authorities, and in particular with the CNIL [French Data Protection Authority], at the following address: https://www.cnil.fr/fr/plaintes.

7.4 Non-communication of personal data

SAS ELC refrains from processing, hosting or transferring the Information collected on its Customers to a country located outside the European Union or recognised as “unsuitable” by the European Commission without informing the customer of this in advance. However, SAS ELC remains free to choose its technical and commercial subcontractors, on the condition that they present sufficient guarantees with regard to the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR: no. 2016-679).

SAS ELC agrees to take all the necessary precautions in order to preserve the security of the Information and, in particular, to prevent it from being communicated to unauthorised persons. However, if an incident impacting the integrity or confidentiality of Customer Information is brought to the attention of SAS ELC, it shall notify the customer as soon as possible and let him know the corrective measures taken. In addition, SAS ELC does not collect any “sensitive” data.

Within the limits of their respective duties and for the purposes recalled above, the main people likely to have access to the data of SAS ELC are administrative and sales staff.

7.5 Type of data collected

Concerning site users, we collect the following data which is necessary for the functioning of the service, and which will be stored for a maximum period of 36 months after the end of the contractual relationship: first and last name, date of birth, postal address, e-mail and telephone number.

The site also collects information to help enhance the user experience and to offer contextualised advice: browser data to enable the suggestion of bespoke services and to generate audience statistics (Google Analytics, Google Adwords, Bing Ads, Facebook). This data is stored for a maximum period of 36 months after the end of the contractual relationship.

8. Incident notification

Regardless of the efforts made, no method of transmission on the Internet and no method of electronic storage is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security. If we became aware of a security breach, we would notify affected users so that they could take appropriate measures. Our incident notification procedures take into account our legal obligations, whether at the national or European level. We commit to fully informing our customers of all matters relating to the security of their account and provide them with all information necessary to help them meet their own regulatory obligations with regard to reporting.

No personal information of site users is published without the knowledge of the user, or exchanged, transferred, assigned or sold on any medium to third parties. Only a scenario of the purchase of SAS ELC and its rights would allow the transfer of said information to the prospective buyer who would, in turn, be bound by the same obligation to store and modify data with regard to the site user.

Security

To ensure the security and confidentiality of data, SAS ELC uses networks protected by standard devices such as a firewall, pseudonymisation, encryption and password protection. When processing personal data, it takes all reasonable measures to protect it against any loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.

IIf the User refuses to have Cookies saved in his terminal or his browser, or if the User deletes those saved there, the User is informed that his navigation and his experience on the Site may be limited. This may also be the case when SAS ELC or one of its partners cannot recognise, for reasons of technical compatibility, the type of browser used by the terminal, the language and display settings or the country from which the terminal appears to be connected to the Internet.

Where applicable, SAS ELC declines all responsibility for consequences related to the downgraded functioning of the site, resulting either from refusal of cookies by the user, or from the inability of SAS ELC to save or consult the cookies needed for their functioning due to the user’s choice. For the management of Cookies and choices of User, the configuration of each browser is different. It is described in the browser’s help menu, which will make it possible to know how the User can modify his wishes in terms of Cookies.

These types of cookies are only saved on your devices if you so agree, by continuing to browse the site. At any time, the User may nevertheless revoke his consent.

Article 9.2. INTERNET TAGS

The site may occasionally use Internet tags, (action tags, single-pixel GIF, transparent GIF, invisible GIFs and GIFs one by one) and deploy them through a partner specialising in web analyses likely to be found (and, therefore, store the corresponding information, including the User’s IP address) in a foreign country.

These tags are placed both in online advertisements allowing Internet users to access the Site, and on its various pages.

This technology allows SAS ELC to evaluate the responses of visitors to the Site and the effectiveness of its actions (for example, the number of times a page is opened and information viewed), as well as the use of this Site by the User.

The external service provider may collect information on visitors to the Site and other websites using these tags, compile reports on the activity of the Site for the attention of SAS ELC, and provide other services relating to the use of it and the Internet.
