User’s rights on Personal Data

It is possible for the User, by simple written request, to access his/her Personal Data, to request its modification or correction, or to demand that it no longer appears in the Company's database.

As part of the right of access, the User is authorized, in accordance with article 15 of the GDPR, to question the Company in order to obtain: (i) communication of the Personal Data concerning him/her in an accessible form; (ii) confirmation that his/her Personal Data is or is no longer being processed; (iii) communication of the purposes of the processing, the categories of Personal Data processed and the recipients to whom his/her Personal Data is communicated; and (iv) the duration of the storage of his/her Personal Data or the criteria used to determine this duration.

In accordance with article 16 of the GDPR, the right of rectification gives the User the right to require the Company to rectify, complete or update his/her Personal Data when it is inaccurate, incomplete, equivocal or out of date.

Under the conditions set forth in article 17 of the GDPR, the User has a right to the deletion of his/her Personal Data, allowing him/her to ask the Company to delete his/her Personal Data as soon as possible, in particular when it is no longer necessary with regards to the purposes for which it was collected.

The User also has the right to limit the processing of his/her Personal Data in the cases listed in article 18 of the GDPR. He/she may thus request that his/her Personal Data be kept only for the purposes of:

  • Verifying the accuracy of the Personal Data that it contests;
  • To be used for the purpose of ascertaining, exercising or defending his/her rights in court, even though the Company no longer has any use for it;
  • To verify whether the legitimate reasons pursued by the Company prevail over his/her own in the event that he/she opposes processing based on the legitimate interest of the Company;
  • Satisfy his request for limitation of the use of his data - rather than deletion - in the event that the processing of his data is unlawful.

In the circumstances provided for in article 20 of the GDPR, the User has a right to the portability of his Personal Data, allowing him/her to recover from the Company the Personal Data he/she has provided, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, for the purpose of forwarding them to another data controller.

In accordance with Article 21 of the GDPR, the User has the right to object, at any time, to the processing of his Personal Data for commercial prospecting purposes.

In accordance with article 85 of Law 78-17 of January 6, 1978 relating to data processing, files and freedoms, the User has the possibility to define specific directives relating to the conservation, deletion and communication of his/her personal data post-mortem. These specific directives will only concern the processing carried out by the Company and will be limited to this scope only.

In order to exercise the aforementioned rights of access, rectification, deletion, limitation, portability and opposition, the User need only send his/her request by e-mail to the following address: contact@uncovery.io

The Company will provide the person exercising one of these rights with information on the measures taken, as soon as possible and in any event within one (1) month of receipt of the request. This period may be extended by two (2) months, depending on the complexity and number of requests.

If the Company does not comply with the request, it will inform the person as soon as possible, and at the latest within one (1) month of receipt of the request, of the reasons for its inaction and of the possibility of lodging a complaint with a supervisory authority and of lodging a judicial appeal.

The exercise of these rights shall be free of charge. However, in the event of a manifestly unfounded or excessive request, the Company reserves the right: (i) to require payment of a fee taking into account administrative costs; or (ii) to refuse to comply with such requests.

Remedies in case of Personal Data’s violation

In the event of a violation of its Personal Data that may create a risk to its rights and freedoms, the Company shall notify the CNIL, French independent administrative authority on personal data, of the violation as soon as possible, and, if possible, seventy-two (72) hours at the latest after becoming aware of it. The Company will also inform the User as soon as possible in accordance with the provisions of article 34 of the GDPR.

Without prejudice to any other administrative or jurisdictional remedies, the User who considers that the processing of his/her Personal Data constitutes a violation of the provisions of the legislation in force may file a complaint with a competent supervisory authority such as the CNIL.
