Recipients of the data

Data is processed by authorised staff of the Controller (administration, sales, marketing, technical support) and by suppliers acting as data processors, including the hosting provider (OVHcloud), the newsletter service provider (Mailchimp, The Rocket Science Group LLC), Google (statistics, reCAPTCHA, maps; for reCAPTCHA Google acts as data processor under the Cloud Data Processing Addendum) and IT and email service providers. Data may be disclosed to public authorities where the law requires it. The updated list of processors is available on request to the Controller.

Transfers outside the European Economic Area

Some suppliers also process data in the United States: Mailchimp (The Rocket Science Group LLC, part of the Intuit group) and Google (Analytics, reCAPTCHA and Maps; the contract is with the European companies of the Google group, which rely on Google LLC). The transfer is based on the European Commission's adequacy decision of 10 July 2023 (EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework), to which these suppliers adhere and, should that decision cease to apply, on the standard contractual clauses (Decision (EU) 2021/914) included in their respective data processing agreements. To obtain information or a copy of the safeguards, write to the Controller.
