📚 Definition and nature of personal data

 

When you use the services accessible on our website, https://cocoom.com/, hereinafter referred to as “Cocoom”, we may ask you to provide us with personal data. By “personal data” we mean any data that can identify a person, such as your last name, first name, photo or email address, as well as any other information you choose to provide us.

 

 

🔗 Hypertext links “cookies” and Internet tags

 

The Cocoom website contains a number of hyperlinks to other sites, set up with the authorization of Cocoom. However, Cocoom does not have the ability to verify the content of the sites visited, and consequently assumes no responsibility for this.

Unless you decide to deactivate cookies, you agree that the site may use them. You can deactivate these cookies at any time, free of charge, using the deactivation options offered to you and recalled below, knowing that this may reduce or prevent access to all or part of the Services offered by the site.

Cookies

A “cookie” is a small information file sent to the User’s browser and stored in the User’s terminal (e.g. computer, smartphone) (hereinafter “Cookies”). This file includes information such as the User’s domain name, the User’s Internet service provider, the User’s operating system, and the date and time of access. Cookies are not likely to damage the User’s terminal in any way.

Cocoom may process the User’s information regarding his/her visit to the Website, such as the pages consulted and the searches performed. This information allows Cocoom to improve the content of the Website and the User’s navigation.

Cookies facilitate browsing and/or the provision of services offered by the Website, and the User may configure his/her browser to allow him/her to decide whether or not to accept them so that cookies are stored in the terminal or, on the contrary, are rejected, either systematically or according to their sender. The User may also configure his/her browser software so that acceptance or rejection of Cookies is proposed from time to time, before a Cookie is likely to be recorded in his/her terminal. Cocoom informs the User that, in this case, the functions of his/her browser may not be fully available.

If the User refuses to accept the storage of Cookies in his/her terminal or browser, or if the User deletes those stored there, the User is informed that his/her browsing and experience on the Website may be limited. This may also be the case when Cocoom or one of its service providers cannot recognize, for technical compatibility purposes, the type of browser used by the terminal, the language and display settings or the country from which the terminal seems to be connected to the Internet.

Where applicable, Cocoom declines all responsibility for the consequences related to the degraded operation of the Website and any services offered by Cocoom, resulting from (i) the refusal of Cookies by the User (ii) the impossibility for Cocoom to save or consult the Cookies necessary for their operation due to the User’s choice.

For the management of Cookies and the User’s choices, the configuration of each browser is different. It is described in the browser’s help menu, which will allow the User to know how to modify his/her wishes regarding Cookies.

At any time, the User may choose to express and modify his/her wishes regarding Cookies. Cocoom may also use the services of external service providers to help it collect and process the information described in this section.

Finally, by clicking on the icons dedicated to the social networks Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, Instagram and YouTube appearing on the Cocoom Website or in its mobile application and if the User has accepted the deposit of cookies by continuing to navigate on the Cocoom Website or mobile application, Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, Instagram and YouTube may also deposit cookies on your terminals (computer, tablet, cell phone).

These types of cookies are deposited on your terminals only if you consent to them, by continuing your browsing on the Website or the Cocoom mobile application. At any time, the User may nevertheless revoke his or her consent to Cocoom depositing this type of cookie.

Internet tags

Cocoom may occasionally use Internet tags (also known as “tags”, action tags, single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs and one-to-one GIFs) and deploy them through a web analytics partner that may be located (and therefore store the corresponding information, including the User’s IP address) in a foreign country.

These beacons are placed both in the online advertisements that allow users to access the Site and on the various pages of the Site.

This technology allows Cocoom to evaluate visitors’ responses to the Site and the effectiveness of its actions (for example, the number of times a page is opened and the information consulted), as well as the use of the Site by the User.

The external service provider may collect information about visitors to the Website and other websites through these tags, compile reports on Website activity for Cocoom, and provide other services related to the use of the Website and the Internet.

Personal data is not likely to be transferred outside the European Union for data storage and in any case, it is not transferred to a country considered by the CNIL as not offering an adequate level of protection.

️ Incident notification

Despite our best efforts, no method of transmission over the Internet and no method of electronic storage is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security. If we become aware of a security breach, we will notify affected users so that they can take appropriate action. Our incident notification procedures take into account our legal obligations, whether at the national or European level. We are committed to fully informing our customers of all matters relating to the security of their account and to providing them with all necessary information to help them meet their own regulatory reporting obligations.

No personal information of the user of Cocoom is published without the user’s knowledge, exchanged, transferred, assigned or sold on any medium to third parties. Only the assumption of the purchase of Cocoom and its rights would allow for the transmission of said information to the eventual purchaser who would in turn be bound by the same obligation to preserve and modify the data with respect to the user of Cocoom.

To ensure the security and confidentiality of Personal Data, Cocoom uses networks protected by standard devices such as firewalls, pseudonymization, encryption and passwords.

When processing Personal Data, Cocoom takes all reasonable measures to protect it from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.
