General personal data protection policy

“GDPR Governance” label awarded by the CNIL

Respect for fundamental rights and freedoms, in particular with regard to privacy and the protection of personal data, constitute particularly important values for our company.

These values shape our day-to-day activities, notably by the implementation of Personal Data Protection Policies for responsible use of data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

In May 2018, the CNIL (French data protection authority) acknowledged our actions to ensure data protection and compliance with the GDPR by awarding Mutuaide Assistance the “GDPR Governance” label.

This label:

  • demonstrates the importance of personal data protection and privacy for our company;
  • recognises the effective actions implemented for several years now with regard to the Governance of personal data;
  • provides a guarantee of quality of service and trust.

Respect for privacy and the protection of personal data form the basis of trust, a value that is particularly important for Mutuaide Assistance, as is respect for fundamental rights and freedoms.

This policy sets out the commitments made in the context of our day-to-day activities for a responsible use of personal data.

Mutuaide Assistance processes personal data in compliance with the laws and regulations in force and in particular with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the French Data Protection Act of 6 January 1978 and the guidelines drawn up by the CNIL.

Personal Data Governance Policies are implemented within the companies and compliance with their provisions is controlled.

 

1) Determined, explicit and legitimate purpose of the processing:

Personal data are collected for specific reasons (purposes), of which data subjects are informed. They may not be used subsequently in a manner incompatible with such purposes.
They are collected fairly: no data are collected without the data subject’s knowledge and without them being informed.

 

2) Proportional and relevant nature of the data collected:

The personal data collected are strictly necessary for the objective pursued by the collection. Mutuaide Assistance strives to minimise the data collected and to keep them accurate and up-to-date by facilitating data subjects’ rights.

 

3) Limited storage period for personal data:

Personal data are retained for a limited amount of time and only for as long as is necessary for the purposes of the collection. Data subjects are informed of the data storage periods, which may vary depending on the nature of the data, the purpose of the processing or legal or regulatory requirements.

 

4) Confidentiality / data security:

Information System Security Policies are implemented and adapted to the nature of the processed data and to the company’s activities.

Appropriate physical, software and organisational security measures are in place to guarantee the confidentiality of data and to avoid any unauthorised access.

Mutuaide Assistance also requires that any data processor provide appropriate guarantees to ensure the security and confidentiality of the personal data.

Personal data may be transferred to countries situated in the European Union or outside the European Union. In this case, data subjects are explicitly informed thereof and specific measures are taken to manage such transfers.

 

5) Rights of data subjects:

All measures necessary to guarantee the effective nature of data subjects’ rights regarding their personal data are implemented:

Clear and comprehensive information on the data processing implemented, easily accessible and comprehensive for all.

Easy access to the data: Each individual has rights regarding the data concerning them, which they may exercise at any time and free of charge.

Data subjects may therefore access all of their personal data and in certain cases have them rectified (inaccurate or incomplete data) or erased, or demand that use of their data be temporarily restricted. Data subjects also have the right to the portability of data that they have personally supplied and where such data have been supplied on the basis of the data subject’s explicit consent or the performance of a contract.

These rights are facilitated online or are may be exercised by any other means according to the procedures made known to data subjects.

Such requests may also be addressed to the DPO.
