The information collected is recorded in the customer file, which has been declared to the CNIL (n° 1672800).

This personal data protection policy (hereinafter referred to as the "Policy") describes how IC, as data controller, processes the personal data of its Customers.

IC collects, stores and processes personal data concerning Customers when they use the Site. The purpose of this Policy is therefore exclusively to manage the processing of data collected directly on the Site and to describe the manner in which the personal data of the Site's Customers is collected and processed by IC.

This Policy may be amended from time to time, in particular to reflect any changes in the way in which IC processes and collects Customer data on the Site. The date of any updates will be specified at the top of this Policy.

Data controller

The personal data provided by the Customer when registering for certain sections of the Site are intended exclusively for IC (Data Controller), which determines the purposes and means of their processing and which may transfer them to its service providers (data processors). Data processing by these subcontractors is always limited to the purposes defined by IC.

Purposes of processing

The purpose of data processing is to enable users of the Site to benefit from the Site's services and events, in particular thematic offers and content. This processing by IC is necessary for the administration of its Site, the performance of its services, the promotion and sale of its products, correspondence with its Customers and invoicing. This processing is also necessary to enable IC to comply with its legal obligations and to meet certain legitimate management interests.

These purposes are detailed below:

- Processing carried out for the performance of contractual obligations

The processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of the contract between the customer and IC. In general, the personal data collected for the purposes of distance selling is mandatory for the confirmation and validation of the Customer's order, as well as its follow-up and dispatch; without it, the Customer's order cannot be processed.

Unless otherwise specified on the form, the various fields on the form during the order process are mandatory data to be completed by the Customer in order to enable the order to be placed. This data enables IC to improve its communications and services to the Customer. This data may be transmitted to IC's service providers for the sole purpose of the proper execution of the order, and in particular its payment and delivery, depending on the options selected by the Customer at the time of ordering. The provision of personal data also enables IC to communicate with the Customer concerning his/her account or the contractual relationship between IC and the Customer (for example, to inform the Customer of modifications to the Site, the Policy or updates).

The following purposes are thus targeted:

If the Customer has a Paypal account, payment will be made using the process set up by this company: payment using the email address and password provided when the Paypal account is created. All of the customer's bank details are collected solely by our certified payment service provider, which guarantees payment security.
