5. Contact Forms

When the user fills out a form on the website, the information submitted is used solely to process and respond to their request.

Required fields are marked as such. Failure to provide this information may prevent VECTUEL from responding properly to the request.

6. Cookies and Trackers

The website may use different types of cookies or trackers:

Necessary Cookies

These cookies are crucial for the proper functioning of the website. They may, for instance, enable correct page display, website security, or the storage of certain technical preferences.

They do not require user consent when they are strictly necessary for the requested service.

Audience Measurement Cookies

The website may use audience measurement tools to understand website usage, improve content, and optimize performance.

Certain audience measurement trackers may be exempt from consent if they are strictly limited to audience measurement solely on behalf of the publisher, if they produce only anonymous statistics, and if they do not allow global tracking of the user's browsing across different websites.

When used cookies do not meet these conditions, user consent is requested before they are placed.

Third-Party Cookies

The website may integrate third-party services, such as videos, interactive maps, audience measurement tools, share buttons, or embedded content.

These services may place their own cookies. When these cookies are not strictly necessary, they are subject to the user's prior consent. The CNIL emphasizes that advertising cookies, social networks, or non-essential trackers generally require prior consent.

The user can modify their preferences at any time through the cookie management module available on the website.

7. Data Recipients

The collected data is intended for the internal teams of VECTUEL authorized to process it.

It may also be transmitted, when necessary, to technical service providers involved in website operation, hosting, maintenance, form management, audience measurement, or security.

These providers act within the scope of their duties and in accordance with the applicable obligations regarding personal data protection.

VECTUEL does not sell users' personal data.

8. Transfers Outside the European Union

Wherever possible, VECTUEL prioritizes processing and hosting located within the European Union.

When certain providers involve a data transfer outside the European Union, VECTUEL ensures that this transfer is governed by appropriate safeguards in compliance with applicable regulations.

9. Retention Periods

Personal data is retained only for the duration necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

As an indication:

• data from contact forms is kept for as long as necessary to process the request;

• data relating to a prospect can be kept for up to 3 years from the last contact initiated by the prospect;

• data required for managing a contractual relationship may be kept for the duration of the relationship, then archived in compliance with applicable legal obligations;

• cookies are kept for a limited period, depending on their purpose and the user's choices.

The CNIL points out that personal data cannot be kept indefinitely and that the duration must be defined in relation to the purpose of collection. For commercial prospecting, the CNIL specifically indicates a period of three years from the collection or last contact from the prospect.

10. Data Security

VECTUEL implements technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data against loss, unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Access to data is restricted to authorized individuals within the scope of their duties.

11. Digital Sobriety Approach

As part of its digital eco-design approach, VECTUEL seeks to limit unnecessary processing, reduce superfluous resources, and prioritize data collection that is proportionate to the real needs of the website.

This approach aligns with a logic of digital sobriety: collect less, store for shorter periods, optimize performance, and provide a more efficient experience for users.
