On which basis do we process your personal data?
The provision of your personal data may be necessary:

for compliance with a legal obligation applicable to us (e.g. accounting, taxation, etc.);
to pursue our legitimate interests (or those of a data recipient) provided that these interests prevail over your fundamental rights and freedoms.
We ask for your prior, free and informed consent before processing some of your personal data (for example, whenever the processing of your data involves a transfer of your image rights).
The provision of some of your personal data (e.g. your personal identification data, etc.) may be a condition to enable us to provide you with our services or perform or activities.
The possible consequences of not providing your personal data may include our inability to provide you with our services or perform our activities or a breach by us of one or more obligations under applicable laws (e.g. accounting and tax laws).

The personal data we process come from the following sources:
directly from you, e.g. during the first contact we make with you;

We entrust the processing of some of your personal data to processors only to the extent necessary to carry out their tasks and in accordance with our written instructions and with Applicable Data Protection Law.
In the case of a restructuring of our activities (e.g. a financing operation), we may transfer certain personal data concerning a limited number of data subjects to a third party involved in the operation (e.g. a bank) in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Law.
How do we manage our processors?
We take appropriate measures to ensure that our processors process your personal data in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Law.
Among other things, we ensure that our processors undertake to process personal data only on our instructions, not to hire subprocessors without our prior authorisation, to take appropriate technical and organisational measures to guarantee the security of personal data, to ensure that persons authorised to access personal data are subject to adequate obligations of confidentiality, to return and/or delete the personal data they process at the end of their services, to comply with audits and to provide us with assistance in following up requests from data subjects for the exercise of their rights regarding their personal data.
Where do we process your personal data?
In the event that certain of your personal data are transferred to countries outside the EEA, we will ensure that we take the following safeguards:
the country where the personal data are transferred to has benefitted from an adequacy decision from the European Commission pursuant to article 45 of the GDPR and the transfer falls within the scope of such adequacy decision;
we have concluded a contract with the recipient of personal data that contains the standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission pursuant to Article 47 of the GDPR; or
in the event of a transfer to the United States, the recipient of personal data has been certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield programme established pursuant to Article 45 of the GDPR and the transfer falls within the scope of the EU-US Privacy Shield programme.
What are the applicable retention periods?
We ensure that your personal data are only kept for as long as necessary for the purposes for which they are processed.
We keep invoices and other accounting documents (which may include some of your personal data) for a period of seven (7) years from the end date of the accounting year when they were issued in accordance with accounting laws. These accounting documents may, where applicable, contain certain personal identification data, professional identification data and contact data.
We also use the following criteria to determine the retention periods of personal data according to the context and purposes of each processing activity:
the date of our last contact;
security reasons (for example, the security of our information systems);
any current or potential dispute or litigation with a data subject;
any legal obligation to retain or delete personal data (for example, a retention obligation imposed by accounting or tax laws).
