This Privacy Policy details Bayard Group\u2019s commitments regarding the protection of your personal data as customer or web visitor and service user. It sets out how your personal data is collected and used, as well as your rights in this respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bayard Group complies with the French Data Protection Act, no. 78 of 6 January 1978 as amended, the French \u201cTrust and the Digital Economy\u201d Act, no. 2004 \u2013 575 of 21 June 2004 as well as the General Data Protection Regulation 2016\/679 of 27 April 2016 (\u201cGDPR”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bayard Group has appointed a Data Protection Officer who is responsible for properly applying the law and ensuring your rights to access, rectify, object, erase, restrict and portability created by the aforementioned texts (dpo@groupebayard.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bayard Group’s Privacy Policy applies on top of the General Terms and Conditions of Usage and General Terms and Conditions of Sale of websites where they exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As Data controller under the French Data Protection Act and the GDPR, Bayard Group is responsible for the personal data it collects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The data is collected to allow you, as client, prospect or ordinary user of our services, to receive personalised information, to manage your orders, as well as enable us to offer you tailored commercial offers and, where applicable, to pass on offers from our partners. This data also allows our departments to run and improve our marketing activities and services for our clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When collecting your personal data, you are advised when the requested information is required, in order to be able to enjoy a service, and when it is optional, as well as of the consequences of not providing us with a particular piece of information. You are also informed of how Bayard Group will use your data, of your right to access, rectify, object, erase, data portability and processing restrictions, and of the fate of your data after your death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Self-reported data :<\/span> Bayard Group collects the data needed to use the service of your choice, or to manage your order. The data collected for this purpose may include: your first names and surnames, your postal address, your email address, your telephone number and your date of birth. This may be supplemented by information on your household (number and age of children, areas of interest).<\/p>\n\n\n\n You may also be asked if you would like to receive commercial offers by emails from Bayard Group or its partners. Pursuant to the French \u201cTrust and the Digital Economy\u201d Act, you must clearly express your consent by ticking a box confirming your agreement, as the case may be. You may withdraw your consent at any time. You are informed that if you place an order with a Bayard group company, it may send you offers for products similar to what you have already ordered, on the legal basis of its legitimate interest. You will of course be able to object at any time and exercise your rights to access, erase your personal data or restrict the processing. However, you cannot call into question the legality of the processing prior to the removal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you give your mobile phone number to a Bayard group company when placing an order, it may inform you that you are likely to receive commercial offers by SMS for products similar to what you have already ordered. You are then informed how you can object to this at any time and upon collection of your telephone number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you agree to receive commercial offers from Bayard partners, your email address will never be transmitted to our partners. Those emails are sent by Bayard and the partners do not have access to your email address until you subscribe to the proposed offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All this data is stored in our customer database, in order to communicate with you and tailor offerings to your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Behavioural data :<\/span> you may fill out online surveys run by Bayard Group in your capacity as a customer and\/or user of products or services. Such surveys are anonymous. However, we may ask for your agreement to retain self-reported behavioural data that is linked to your customer account. You are then advised of your rights to access, rectify, erase and object and how to exercise them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Browsing data :<\/span> We may also collect data concerning any interactions you have with Bayard Group services (page loads, button clicks, click rates on newsletters, banners, etc.) in order to provide tailored offerings, and in general improve our services in line with customer expectations. In such circumstances, we therefore collect and process this data with your agreement. You are then advised of your rights to access, rectify, object and erase, data portability and processing restrictions, and how to exercise them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This data is then collected by trackers and\/or cookies.

Accordingly, Bayard Group may collect Personal Data from its partners. These sources are not public. Where necessary, we will certainly provide you with full information on the processing as well as all necessary information on how to exercise your right to object, erase, restrict, access, rectify and portability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Data of minors under the age of 15 :<\/span> if you create an account on one of our websites in the name of your child in your capacity as holder of parental authority, you are informed that personal data relating to your child under the age of 15 will be processed and used by the Bayard Group in accordance with this Privacy Policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the event that your child is under 15 years of age, and his\/her consent is necessary for the processing of personal data in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR, you will be asked, in your capacity as holder of parental authority, to consent to the processing of your child\u2019s data by Bayard Group.<\/p>\n\n\nThis table presents all the reasons for which we collect your personal data and specifies the legal bases and retention periods.<\/span>\n\n\n\nII.
