The information we collect is governed by European law and the national laws relevant to the registered subsidiary. As part of the provision of our Services, your personal information may be sent to third parties in countries outside the European Economic Area. Where it is transferred outside the European Economic Area, we will attain sufficient guarantees from third parties to ensure that your personal information continues to be protected to the standards set out in this policy.

LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We rely on a number of legal bases when processing your personal information.

For customers who hold an account with FRANCE, the personal information provided in relation to your account and related purchases and transactions, is processed because it is necessary for us to do so to perform our contract with you.

Additionally, personal information is processed on the basis of our interest in running our business, as detailed below, and where it is necessary to comply with our legal obligations. These interests include:

• selling and supplying our goods and services;
• handling customer contacts, queries, complaints or disputes;
• understanding our customers’ behaviour, activities, preferences, and needs;
• promoting, marketing and advertising our products and services via our websites and applications;
• sending promotional communications which are relevant and tailored to individual customers; and
• fulfilling our obligations to our customers, colleagues, suppliers and stakeholders.

Where we rely on consent in order to process your personal information (for example, to contact non-account holders regarding their competition entries) we ensure that consent is collected appropriately.

SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will never pass your personal information to anyone else, with the exception of our trusted partners, unless we have your express consent, or where we have a legal obligation to do so. Trusted partners are organisations that process data on our behalf to fulfil contracted partnerships that enable the provision of our Services, or as part of our commitment to improve our online services. Where we use third parties to process your personal information, we will ensure that they have sufficient measures in place to safeguard your personal information.

You may contact us using the details at the bottom of the page to request a list of our trusted partners.

RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for. We will actively review the information we hold and delete it when there is no longer a legal, business or customer need for it to be retained, in line with our data retention policy.

 

SECURITY

The transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Websites or Services. However, we adopt technical and organisational measures which follow industry best practices to make sure it is not lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed. We frequently carry out manual and automated security checks to make sure our measures ensure the highest level of security, and continually look to improve the technical and organisational security measures that are in place.

 

YOUR CHOICES AND YOUR RIGHTS

You have the right to request a copy of the personal information that we hold about you.

You may have the right to request the deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances. Where these apply, we will comply with your request unless it is necessary for us to not do so in order to defend a legal claim or where there are overriding legitimate grounds for not doing so or if it is necessary for us not to do so in order to comply with a legal obligation.

You may also have the right to restrict or object to our processing of your personal information in certain circumstances.

You have the right to correct any inaccurate personal information.

To exercise any of these rights or should you wish us to transmit your personal information to someone else, please contact us using the details listed at the bottom of this page.
