The personal data that we collect is processed in accordance with the regulations in force to meet  explicit, legitimate and determined purposes, either on the basis of the General Conditions of Sale  or Use, or to meet a legal and/or regulatory obligation or subject to your prior consent. These  purposes are the following: 

- To allow you to proceed to the purchase of services, products and the use of your account. 

We collect and use your personal data in order to enable us to provide the services that we offer  via the Sites. This data is processed in order to : 

- manage your online registration request and to be able to validate it; 

- process the transaction, in particular by managing its follow-up and its payment and, if  necessary, deal with any incidents (fraud management, payment incidents etc.); - provide assistance. 

Your personal data is also essential to us in the context of our interaction with you, in the context  of your navigation of the Sites, and more generally, in the context of our commercial relationship  with you. 

In order to ensure the quality of our services and to improve them, we also compile general  statistics, which are subject to an anonymization procedure when the processing of your personal  data does not appear necessary for such action. 

  

- To inform you about our products and/or services and/or those of our partners 

We may use your personal data to inform you about products or services that we offer to our  customers, either after having obtained your prior consent to receive such information or following  a purchase on our Site. 

In addition, and subject to your prior consent, you may also receive emails or other  communications and advertisements from third parties with promotional offers either through us  or directly from such partners. 

If you no longer wish to receive special promotional information, advertisements or other  messages from us or third parties, you may click on the link at the bottom of the email. For 

technical reasons, we may not be able to satisfy your request immediately and you may receive a  few messages following your request in order to allow us to take it into account. 

- Securing the Site 

We ensure the security of your personal data, along with the personal data of any third parties,  against fraudulent access, use or disclosure by implementing data protection reinforced by the  use of appropriate physical and logical technical security measures. This certifies the integrity of  your data, as well as their confidential and secure treatment.  

However, we remind you that no security system is infallible and we cannot guarantee that your  information is completely secure.  

Finally, when browsing the Site and particularly in the event of published notices, we recommend  that you be extremely vigilant as to the nature of the information that you may be led to disclose,  directly or indirectly, which may then be accessible to third parties and processed or used under  conditions that neither you nor we could know about or have the power to prevent.  

- Respecting our legal and regulatory obligations 

As part of the operation of the Site and all services offered therein as described in the Policy, we  are bound by various legal and regulatory obligations involving the retention of your personal data.  This data may also be used to identify the authors of content of an illicit nature.

To this end, we may use trusted partners acting as subcontractors in order to be able to provide  you with all the services offered on the Site and more specifically :

We will only disclose your personal data, without prior notice :

Subject to your express and prior agreement, our partners may contact you directly or through us  in order to offer you prospective commercial offers. 

How long your data will be kept 

We only retain your personal data for the period of time necessary to properly provide the services  offered, unless the law requires that your personal data is not retained otherwise.

Thus, we retain your account data for a period of five (5) years from the closure of your account,  unless the law requires that some of this data be retained for a shorter period. Your banking data  is not retained beyond the time necessary to complete the transaction without your prior consent. 

As an exception, this data may be archived to manage ongoing claims and disputes as well as to  meet legal and/or regulatory obligations and/or to respond to requests from the authorities  authorised to request it.  

The cookies deposited on your browser have a lifespan of thirteen (13) months. 

Finally, this data may be archived for the duration necessary to manage claims or disputes in  progress and / or to respond to requests from authorities authorized to make the request.   

The transfer of your data outside the European Union 

In the context of the provision of services, we may transfer your personal data to countries that  are not members of the European Union and that have not been subject to a decision on  adequacy of protection by the European Commission. 

In this case, we make sure that this transfer is carried out under conditions that comply with the  regulations in force by taking all appropriate measures into account and ensuring all legal,  technical and operational guarantees are in place that ensure the confidentiality and security of  this data. 

Your rights and the means to exercise them 

In accordance with the regulations in force, you have the right to access, oppose, rectify and  delete your personal data, as well as the right to limit the aforementioned processing, the right to  portability and to determine the fate of your data in the event of your death (subject to the legal  and regulatory obligations that would require us to keep them). The exercise of some of these  rights is likely to prevent us from providing you with access to the Site and/or from using all or  part of the services offered on the Site and in particular from making purchases. 

These rights may be exercised by contacting us at the following address: contact@art trope.come, providing proof of your identity. In addition, you are reminded that you can exercise  some of these rights directly through the settings in your account. 

You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des  Libertés (CNIL), the supervisory authority in charge of compliance with obligations in terms of  personal data. 

Finally, it is specified that we may have to communicate your personal data, under the conditions  provided for by law, to a duly authorized judicial or administrative authority.

We may, at any time and from time to time, make changes to this Policy, in particular because we  are developing our services and/or because current regulations require us to do so: these  changes will then apply to personal data collected after the effective date indicated in the Policy  and we will inform you of them via a notice on the Site or by any other means.
