7. Protection of personal data
7.1. Purposes of the processing
A subscription to the Website as a User implies that Guide Labreuche will collect and process a certain amount of personal data on the User. This information is crucial to the processing of the subscriptions. These personal data are also retained for security purposes in order to ensure compliance with legal and regulatory obligations. A User who does not wish to provide the information required to create a User Account may therefore not access the services offered by the Website if he or she refuses to provide such personal data. Access to personal data will be strictly limited to employees of the data controller who are authorized to process these data due to their role and responsibilities. The information collected may be communicated to third parties contractually bound to the data controller for the performance of outsourced tasks and the User's authorization in this regard is not necessary.
The personal data collected are the subject of computer processing and are strictly reserved for Guide Labreuche. The data controller is Mr. Pascal Labreuche.
Guide Labreuche retains these data for the purposes described above and undertakes not to use them for any other purpose, nor to transmit them to third parties, except in accordance with the terms of this article or with the relevant User's express agreement or in situations in which said transmission is required by law.
7.2. Retention of personal data
The contact information for all Website Users is saved throughout the period of the subscription and for up to three (3) years after the termination of the User Account. These data are retained in secure conditions according to current technical standards and in accordance with the terms of Law No. 78-17 of 6 January 1978 on information technology, files and freedoms, as amended by Law No. 2004-81 of 6 August 2004, and European Regulation No. 2016/679.
7.3. Security and safety
Guide Labreuche takes the technical measures required to ensure the security of the User's personal data and notably to prevent the deformation or damaging thereof, access thereto by unauthorized third parties and any unlawful use thereof.
In the event of a personal data breach, the Website will inform the User as soon as possible after the Website becomes aware thereof by email to the email address entered by the User into his or her User Account or by any other written means of communication. This notification is provided as soon as a personal data breach occurs, regardless of the related risk. It includes all useful documentation (traces, processing records, etc.) in order to allow the User to notify the competent authority of this breach, if necessary.
7.4. User rights in respect of personal data
In accordance with the aforementioned law, the User has a right to be informed, a right to object, a right of access, a right to rectification, a right to restrict processing and a right to erasure regarding the personal data he or she has provided and may withdraw his or her consent to the processing of said data. To this end, the User must submit a request to Guide Labreuche by email to brushstroke@guide-labreuche.com or by postal mail to Société du Guide Labreuche - 71, rue de la Mare - 75020 Paris, France.
If the User wishes to file a claim, he or she may contact the French data protection authority, the Commission Nationale de l’Informatique et des Libertés (CNIL), at 3, place de Fontenoy - TSA 80715 - 75334 Paris Cedex 07, France.
7.5. IP address
Furthermore, Guide Labreuche reserves the right to collect a User's public IP (Internet Protocol) address. The IP address consists of a series of figures separated by periods allowing for the identification of a computer on the internet. The collection of this IP address is performed anonymously, and the address will be retained for the same period as the personal data and will only be used for the proper management of the services offered on this Website.

The User may block, modify the retention period of, and erase this cookie via his or her browser's interface (in general by using privacy or confidentiality tools or options). In such a case, the User's navigation on the Website will not be optimal.
