Personal Data Management Policy
Laboratoires Vitalaë intends to make the control of your data and the respect of your privacy a fundamental priority as part of our cooperative values of trust and transparency.
Therefore, Laboratoires Vitalaë, intends to rigorously respect the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which came into force on May 25, 2018, as well as the Data Protection Act of January 6, 1978, amended accordingly.
The GDPR is the European framework concerning the processing and circulation of personal data, the information on which companies rely on to offer services and products. This text covers all persons residing in the European Union.
This regulation is based on two main objectives: on the one hand, to reinforce the rights of people whose data is processed, and on the other, to reinforce the obligations of the structures that process such data.
On this occasion, we inform you of the rigorous steps taken by Laboratoires Vitalaë to comply with this regulation.
This Privacy Policy is intended to help you better understand our privacy practices, including what Personal Information we collect, why we collect it, what we do with it and how we protect it, as well as your individual rights.
1. Purpose of this Policy
This Personal Data Management Policy describes the conditions under which we undertake to comply with all French and European regulations and legislation concerning the protection of such data.
This document may be modified at any time in order to comply with any regulatory, legal, editorial or technical developments. The user must refer to the latest version of the declaration before any navigation on the site. The user’s Personal Data will always be treated in accordance with the policy in force at the time of collection, unless a legal and imperative requirement stipulates otherwise.
The Personal Data Management Policy is an integral part of our General Conditions of Use. By using the service or submitting personal information to us, the user acknowledges that he or she has read, understands, and agrees to be bound by this Privacy Policy.
We undertake to comply with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of 27 April 2016 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of Personal Data and on the free movement of such data (GDPR), the French Data Protection Act (Lois Informatique et Libertés) No. 78-17 of 6 January 1978 as amended, as well as the French Act on Confidence in the Digital Economy (Loi pour la Confiance dans économie Numérique) No. 2004-575 of 21 June 2004 (Article L. 33-4-1 of the French Post and Telecommunications Code and Article L. 121-20-5 of the French Consumer Code).
2. What is personal data?
Any information that allows a natural person to be identified directly or indirectly: name, postal or e-mail address, telephone number, loyalty account number, IP address are examples of personal data.
3. Who is responsible for processing it?
Laboratoires Vitalaë collects and processes Personal Data on its own behalf and as processing controller, in accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
4. Who has access to your Personal Data?
The Personal Data collected is intended for Laboratoires Vitalaë, responsible for processing it as a controller and for outside service providers such as for example, a communication agency, which would receive and process data as a controller in the context of its own temporary mission.
Only those persons involved in the processing of data for a specific purpose (a goal), of which you are informed on a case-by-case basis, will have access to your data and solely for that purpose.
Personal Data may be processed by subcontractors (service providers), in full compliance with the above principle, exclusively to achieve the purposes covered by this policy.
The User’s Personal Information is intended for the use of the service. User Personal Information will not be shared with commercial or advertising entities.
We share Personal Information to complete a transaction or provide a requested product or service. We may also disclose and transfer Personal Information to partners, suppliers and other third parties for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and to assist in the operation of the Services and/or related transactions.
In addition, we may exchange data between the different subsidiaries of SILL ENTREPRISES, of which Laboratoires Vitalaë is a part, in accordance with the legitimate interest that leads us to optimize the distribution of the different tasks within the group. SILL ENTREPRISES will not use your personal data for purposes other than those indicated in this policy without informing you and obtaining your consent. In any case, you have the right to object to such an exchange by justifying particular circumstances.
If we sell or divide all or part of our business, transfer assets, or otherwise participate in a change of control transaction, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy, we may transfer Personal Data covered by this policy to one or more third parties as part of the transaction.
In addition, we will access, transfer, disclose and retain Personal Data when we believe in good faith that it is necessary to:
– Comply with applicable law or comply with a valid legal process, including from judicial or other governmental authorities.
– Protect our users, for example to prevent unsolicited email or fraud attempts.
– To operate and maintain the security of our products and services, including to prevent or stop an attack on computer systems or our networks; or
– To protect our rights or property, including the enforcement of terms governing the use of products or services.
Within these limits, all information collected is kept confidential and as far as necessary anonymous. Only information that is exclusively necessary is passed on to the relevant party.
As the case may be, we process your Personal Data, either directly obtained from you or resulting from the use of products or services. We may also be the recipient of data that has been collected from you by a third party.
In the event of a proven violation of legal or regulatory provisions, this Personal Data may be communicated to the judicial authorities upon justified request.
Within the limits of their respective attributions and for the purposes mentioned above, the people most likely to have access to the data of our Customers are mainly the personnel of our customer service (Sales and marketing, Sales administration, technical).
We also use the services provided by several specialized companies (mailing, audience analysis), a list of which can be communicated to the parties concerned on request at the contact below.

When data is transferred in this way, we ensure that it is protected according to European Union standards, using a transfer mechanism approved under the GDPR by the supervisory authorities.

Personal Data management policy collected via cookies
1. Cookies
The Service may collect certain types of data that may include personal information when you visit, including using cookies. Cookies are small text files sent from a Service to the hard drive of a user’s device to store information about that user or device. Cookies may store device and user information, including IP addresses, navigational data, server information, data transfer times, user preferences and passwords needed to access special areas of the Services. We may use cookies to facilitate the downloading of materials from the Services and for other business purposes such as analyzing traffic to the Services.
A cookie does not identify you personally. It allows its issuer to recognize your terminal and to collect a certain amount of information relating to the navigation made from this terminal.
A cookie has a limited validity period. It is deposited and stored on your terminal in compliance with applicable legislation and subject to the choices you have made and which you may modify at any time, under the conditions specified in Article 9 below.
If the user chooses to create a user profile, we will use cookies to store the personal information of his profile. The user’s browser can be set to block, reject, delete, or disable cookies and other tracking technologies. However, if the user rejects or deletes cookies or other tracking technologies, he or she may not be able to access certain pages or use important features, including downloading documents and creating a user profile.
Cookies serve a number of purposes, such as allowing you to navigate a Service or mobile application efficiently, remembering your choices, the goods and services you wish to purchase, and serving you relevant advertising content based on your browsing interests. You can find more information about cookies on the following Services:
www.cnil.fr
www.allaboutcookies.org
www.aboutcookies.org
www.youronlinechoices.eu
The cookies stored under your choices give us access to the following information in particular:
– Identification of the equipment you use (IP address of your computer, Android ID, Apple ID, etc.),
– Type of operating system used by your terminal (Microsoft Windows, Apple Os, Linux, Unix, BeOS, Android, iOS, etc.),

2. Other Technologies
The Service also uses IP addresses, log files and other technologies to identify problems and usage of the Service. We also use web beacons to perform standard traffic analysis on the Service in the same way we use cookies and to track usage of the Service for statistical purposes. We may also use standard Internet technologies, such as scripts, pixels, and redirects. Scripts (sometimes called tags), written in javascript, are programs that run in your browser or mobile application and perform various actions, such as sending information to our servers. Scripts are also capable of creating pixels. Pixels (sometimes called transparent GIFs, clear GIFs, or web bugs) are lines of code that display a graphic image (usually invisible) on a web page or in an email. Redirects make a web page available under multiple page addresses (URLs). When a browser opens a redirect URL, a page with a different URL is opened.
We reserve the right to introduce new tracking technologies and techniques related to the use of the Services, although we do so in compliance with applicable data protection laws and regulations.
The purpose of these technologies is to enhance your experience on the Service, including to provide you with content customized to your interests. For example, when a user clicks a share button on an article, a script creates a pixel that tracks the share. This allows us to track the number of shares, and we can rank the shares.
These technologies give us access to the following information, among others:
– Information about your use of our Service;
– Information about the presence of cookies on your device, the time and date you view a page, and a description of the page where the web beacon is placed;
– Information about whether or not you read the emails we send you, and whether or not you click on the links in those emails.
Our Service may also include third-party scripts, pixels, and redirects. These technologies allow third party service providers to collect certain information such as your browser type, and the web page that redirected you to our Website. These third-party service providers process the information they collect for auditing purposes, research, and to report information about our Services and applications and the advertisements viewed on them. We do not share your identifying information with these third parties in connection with their use of these technologies.
You may choose to have a cookie placed on your browser. You can change your choices at any time regarding the acceptance or refusal of cookies placed on your terminal, either on your browser or online with various operators.
In order to manage cookies in accordance with your wishes, we invite you to configure your browser taking into account the purpose of the cookies.
