In light of the development of new communication tools, it is necessary to pay close attention to the protection of privacy. This is why we undertake to respect the confidentiality of the personal information we collect.

Throughout the text below, the term "the company" refers to SAS DotDev.

Scope

This Privacy Policy describes how the company uses your personal data when you visit the company's corporate website, the websites of our products or services, as well as mobile applications (individually referred to hereinafter as the "Product or Service"). Each Product or Service may be supplemented by additional privacy rules to this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to websites or mobile applications that are not linked to this Privacy Policy or that are provided by third-party publishers. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of such third-party publishers posted on their sites or mobile applications.

Collection of Your Personal Data

Our Products or Services may collect personal data from you in two ways:

• Directly, when you freely provide your personal data to us;
• Automatically via the technology used in the Product or Service;

The data that may be collected can include, without limitation:

• Payment information according to the chosen method, such as credit card number. Please note that this information is only used during the transaction and is not saved afterward;
• Your education and professional status;
• Your comments;
• Your interests and preferences regarding commercial solicitation;

Data You Provide to Us

Personal data collected directly from you by a product or service may include the following, as well as any other type of information we expressly ask you to enter into the Product or Service, such as:

• Data such as your first name, last name, email address, and phone number;
• Data such as your postal address and company name, for billing purposes;
• Usernames and passwords;

The company invites you to read the “norme simplifiée n°48” stemming from Deliberation n°2012-209 of June 21, 2012, which created a simplified standard regarding the automated processing of personal data for the management of customers and prospects (available at http://www.cnil.fr/documentation/deliberations/deliberation/delib/184/). This constitutes the basis of its declaration to the CNIL.

Automatically Collected Data

The Product or Service automatically collects certain data relating to your use of the Product or Service. The information collected automatically includes:

• The IP address of your computer
• Information relating to your computer, your connection method, such as the type and version of your internet browser, your operating system, the OS of your mobile or tablet, as well as the unique device identifier (“UDID”) and other technical identifiers
• The URL address of your connections, including the date and time, as well as the content you access on the Product or Service

We may use and disclose this data for the purposes identified in section 3 of this Privacy Policy, within the limits of applicable law. We inform you that we may combine this data with your personal data; such combined information will then be processed by the company as personal data within the meaning of French law n°78-17 of January 6, 1978 on information technology, data files, and civil liberties. Furthermore, we may also use automatically collected data in aggregate form for various purposes as long as this data does not allow us to personally identify you: such aggregated data will not be considered personal data.

Cookies and Web Beacons

A cookie is a small amount of data in the form of a text file, which often includes a unique identifier. Through your web browser, the cookie is sent by the visited website to your computer or mobile phone and then stored on your hard drive.

Each Product or Service website can send its own cookie if your browser preferences allow it. For our websites, cookies record information about your preferences and allow us to adapt them to your interests.

You have the option to set rules through your browser to accept all cookies, be notified when a cookie is sent to you, or ultimately define that you do not wish to receive cookies. If you choose the latter, please note that certain personalized features of our websites may not be provided to you, and therefore you may not be able to fully enjoy all the features of our Products or Services.

The information provided by cookies can help us better analyze your browsing on our Products or Services and help us provide you with a better user experience.
Thus, for the operation of our websites, our cookies offer you functionalities such as remembering your login between sessions, items saved in your shopping cart, the page layout you have set, etc.

Three types of cookies are used:

• Session cookies (temporary and deleted when you close your browser)

• Security
• Shopping cart

Generally, cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies do not contain any personal data, but when you provide your personal data through the Product or Service, that personal data may be linked to the cookies. There are several ways for you to manage cookies. Since each browser is different, we invite you to read the “Help” menu of your browser regarding cookie preference rules. If you block cookies, you may not be able to register, log in, or fully use the Product or Service. You may also use your mobile phone settings to manage privacy options.

Our HTML emails may contain a web beacon to tell us whether our emails are opened and to check all clicks through links or advertisements in the email. We may use this information to determine which of our emails caught your attention. The web beacon will be removed when you delete the email. Plain text emails do not include a web beacon.
