Preamble

Access to the Site and its functions requires the collection and processing of Users' personal data. It was therefore necessary to establish a policy for the protection of personal data in order to comply with the recommendations for the processing of personal data as laid down by the applicable laws and regulations.

The Site's Data Protection Policy has been drawn up in accordance with the recommendations of the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés (CNIL). Its purpose is to inform Users of the Site of the way in which their personal data is processed and of the commitments and measures we have taken to ensure that the personal data of Users of the Site is respected.

It has been drawn up in accordance with the provisions of :

The Data Protection Act of 6 January 1978;

The European Regulation on Personal Data (known as the "GDPR") of 23 May 2018;

The Law transposing the European Regulation on the Protection of Personal Data (R.G.P.D.) of 20 June 2018.

The version currently published on the Site is the current version of this policy. The Vendor reserves the right to modify it at any time in order to comply with current legal obligations. Any changes made to the Privacy Policy will be communicated to Users in order to obtain their consent to the new policy.

By browsing our Site, Users acknowledge that they have read, understood and accept this data protection policy. Any questions relating to this policy may be sent to the following address: contact.talkto1@gmail.com .
