PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION CHARTER

BARNES SAS (hereinafter 'BARNES') attaches great importance to the protection and respect of the privacy and personal data ('Personal Data') of users of its website (hereinafter the 'Site').

BARNES agrees to implement appropriate measures for the protection, confidentiality and security of Personal Data in accordance with the regulations in force in France and in the European Union, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation EU 2016/679 of 27 April 2016 and the rules of national law adopted for its application.

Users are informed by this charter (the 'Charter') of the practices and processing necessitated by the collection and use of Personal Data by BARNES as data controller.

Accordingly, BARNES invites users to read this document carefully to know and understand the processing operations relating to Personal Data.

It is specified that by browsing the Site, users accept this Charter as well as the general terms and conditions of use.

ARTICLE 1. PERSONAL DATA COLLECTED

Users are required to provide their Personal Data in digital format when using the Site.

1.1 Principles applicable to the collection of Personal Data

In general, users can browse the Site without necessarily having to necessarily communicate Personal Data to BARNES.

BARNES collects only the Personal Data necessary for the processing it implements ('privacy by design') and ensures such Personal Data a high level of protection ('privacy by default'). In this respect, the processing operations that require the collection of data are as follows:

Responding to inquiries (contact forms for requests for visits, estimates, information and/or additional photos of a property);
Acting upon a mandate given by the users;
Participating in surveys for improving the customer relationship and customer experience of BARNES’ clientele;
Sending newsletters, informational or commercial email alerts;
Applying for job offers.

In this case, the personal information at least collected from users are: (i) Last Name(s), (ii) First Name(s), (iii) E-mail Address, (iv) Telephone Number, (v) Mailing Address, (vi) Country.

This Personal Data is then kept for the time necessary to complete the users' request. In the absence actual implementation, it is deleted within the timeframes recommended by the CNIL after three years from its collection by the Site, subject to the legal options and obligations with regard to archiving, obligations to retain certain data and/or anonymization.

1.2 Site browsing information

When using the Site or certain services linked to the Site, certain data is automatically collected, such as: (i) IP address, (ii) the browser used, (iii) browsing data (date, time, content accessed, search terms used, etc.) and (iv) operating system.

Among the technologies used to collect this information, BARNES may use 'php' sessions that store each user's data using a unique session ID. These php sessions retain the data in memory only for the duration of the user’s browsing.

The data collected during browsing is thereby deleted when the user's browser closes or, if applicable, within a maximum period of thirteen months from its collection.

ARTICLE 2. LEGAL BASIS FOR THE COLLECTION AND PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA

Personal Data is processed by BARNES in the cases authorized by the regulations in force and under the following conditions:

Obtaining a free, specific, informed and unambiguous consent from users to the processing of their Personal Data (it is specified that for minors under 18, consent must be given by the legal representative);
Collection of Personal Data necessary for carrying out the users' request;
Compliance with the legal and/or regulatory obligations to which BARNES is subject (such as anti-fraud and corruption);
Protection of BARNES' legitimate interests (such as the protection of the security of its computer network).

ARTICLE 3. RECIPIENTS OF THE PERSONAL DATA COLLECTED

Only the authorized personnel of the BARNES group and service providers employed by Barnes may have access to the Personal Data collected and process it, without prejudice to its possible transmission to the bodies in charge of a control or inspection mission in accordance with the legislation and/or regulations in force or for the purpose of responding to a judicial or administrative order.

Authorized personnel are bound to a duty of discretion.

BARNES agrees not to sell the Personal Data collected to third parties.

ARTICLE 4. TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA

Personal Data collected from users of the Site will be stored exclusively in France and will not be transferred outside the European Union.

In the event that BARNES uses affiliates or service providers located outside the European Union, BARNES agrees to verify that appropriate measures have been put in place to ensure that the users' Personal Data benefits from an adequate level of protection.

ARTICLE 5. DATA SECURITY

BARNES collects and processes users' Personal Data with the utmost confidentiality and in compliance with applicable laws. Users are protected against unauthorized access, modification, disclosure or destruction of their Personal Data.

When the disclosure of Personal Data to third parties is necessary and authorized, BARNES ensures that such third parties provide the same level of protection to the Personal Data concerned as is offered by BARNES, and requires contractual safeguards to ensure that the Personal Data is processed exclusively for the purposes accepted by users, with the required confidentiality and security (in particular through the standard clauses used by the European Commission, the Binding Corporate Rules ('BCR') or the EU-US Privacy Shield).

BARNES implements technical and organizational measures to ensure that the retention of Personal Data is secure, and this, for the duration necessary to carry out the specific purposes pursued.

Users should note that no transmission or storage technology is totally foolproof.

Therefore, in the event of a proven breach of Personal Data that is likely to create a high risk for the rights and freedoms of users, BARNES will inform the competent supervisory authority of this violation in accordance with the terms and conditions provided by applicable regulations.

It is the users’ responsibility to exercise caution to prevent any unauthorized access to their Personal Data and particularly to their computer and digital terminals (computer, smartphone, tablet in particular).

ARTICLE 6. LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES

The Site may occasionally contain links to third-party or partner websites that have their own data protection charter.

BARNES exercises no control over the content of these sites and waives any liability for the use made of the information collected when users click on these links.

BARNES therefore invites users to acquaint themselves with the data protection policies implemented by the operators of these sites before transmitting any personal information concerning them.
