PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION POLICY

COLLECTION OF PERSONAL DATA

Information that the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members may collect is information volunteered by individuals who enter it into online forms (available from the website www.struthof.fr). Each form indicates which information is optional and which is required. These e-mail addresses may be used to respond to your requests and send you information, e.g. the newsletter. However, you may object to receiving these e-mails by sending your request through the contact form.

The European Centre of Deported Resistance Members undertakes to ensure that the personal data that is collected and processed from this website is done so in a manner compliant with the French Data Protection Act no. 78-17 of 6 January 1978 and with (EU) Regulation 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016, applicable on 25 May 2018. Thus, unless expressly indicated otherwise on the data entry form, the e-mail addresses that are collected are not transferred or sold to third parties by the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members.

The purpose for which information is being collected is specified on all online forms.

All forms and remote services limit the amount of personal data collected to a strict minimum (data minimisation), indicating in particular:

  • why the data is being collected (purposes);
  • if the information is required or optional for the handling of your request;
  • who will have access to your data (in most cases, only the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members, unless stated in the form when your data needs to be transferred to a third party to handle your request);
  • your rights under the French Data Protection Act and how to exercise them with respect to the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members.

The personal data collected within the context of services offered on the websites of the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members is processed in accordance with secure protocols that enable the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members to handle requests received through its IT applications.

Personal information collected as part of the services offered by the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members is stored in compliance with the rules of the departmental archives and the French Data Protection Act of 1978, for the amount of time necessary for the purpose of the processing. The departments of the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members use computer resources to handle your case, your requests and the services with which you are provided.

The information stored is for the use of the relevant departments and will be disclosed only to the staff of the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members and to the authorised recipients.

Pursuant to Articles 15 to 23 of the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to access and rectify your personal data. You also have the right to determine the fate of your data after your death, by contacting the Data Protection Officer. For legitimate reasons, you may object to the processing of data concerning you, except if this right has been taken away by a legal provision. 

A copy of your personal data may be supplied to you at your request, provided that you pay the cost of reproducing it. However, the European Centre of Deported Resistance Members may choose to deny requests that are manifestly unreasonable, for example, due to the number of requests made or the repetitive or systematic nature of the requests.

Requests to exercise the right to access, rectify, object to and delete personal data may be made:

  • in writing
    The person making the request sends a signed letter with a copy of proof of identity to the following address:
    Centre européen du résistant déporté (Struthof)
    Route départementale 130
    67130 NATZWILLER
  • or by e-mail directly through the following form “exercising your personal data rights”

Since the entry into force of the European Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) on 25 May 2018, every user has the right:

  • to object to profiling
  • to request the restriction of processing
  • to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (in France: CNIL - 3 Place de Fontenoy - TSA 80715 - 75334 PARIS CEDEX 07 - Telephone: +33 (0)1 53 73 22 22 - www.cnil.fr
