Security
We use commercially reasonable physical, administrative and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your personal data. SEDEA provides various security strategies to effectively ensure the security of user data and devices. With respect to access to devices, SEDEA's proprietary algorithms are employed to ensure data isolation, authentication upon access, and authorization request. For data communication, communications using security algorithms and transmission encryption protocols and dynamic key-based transmission of business-level information encryption are supported. For data processing, strict data filtering, validation and full data auditing are applied. In the case of data storage, all confidential user information is securely encrypted for storage. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that an account you have with us has been compromised), you can immediately notify us of the problem by sending an e-mail to rgpd@sedea.fr.
Data retention
We process your personal data for the minimum period necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless we have a specific legal requirement to retain the data for a longer retention period. We determine the appropriate retention period based on the amount, nature and sensitivity of your personal data, and once the retention period ends, we will destroy your personal data. Where we are unable to do so for technical reasons, we will ensure that appropriate measures are in place to prevent any further use of your personal data.
