Data Protection Policy

Chronopost is committed to personal data protection both during our business operations and as part of the services offers.
This Policy sets out the principles and guidelines we apply to protect your Personal Data and is designed to explain:

• The Personal Data Chronopost collects and the reasons for collecting it,
• How we use your Personal Data,
• Your rights as the data subject.

This Policy applies to all of Chronopost's services but does not apply to any partner websites. For the purposes of this document, the term "Data" corresponds to your Personal Data as per the definition provided in the glossary in the footnotes.

 

How does Chronopost consider the projection of your Data?

Chronopost considers the protection of your Data and privacy when designing new products, services and offers. To ensure the security of your Personal Data and safeguard the proper exercise of your rights, we implement measures designed to protect your Data.

Chronopost is committed to the following essential principles:

- Legitimacy and relevance to only collect and process the Data needed for the stated purposes;

- Confidentiality: to implement the technical and organisational measures necessary to protect your Data;

- Transparency: to provide you with useful information regarding the recipients of your Data;

- Retention: to only keep your Data for the time necessary for the stated purposes; Right of access and deletion: to give you the possibility of accessing, modifying and deleting your Data.

Right of access and deletion: to give you the possibility of accessing, modifying and deleting your Data.

 

What Data is used by Chronopost?

Chronopost undertakes to only collect the data that is strictly necessary for the provision of the requested services.

We use your Data in accordance with this Policy, the general terms and conditions of sale or use of our products and services and particularly:
- when you have been given clear, apparent and precise information regarding the processing in place and agreed, for one or more specific purposes either by way of a written declaration, including by electronic means, or by the absence of opposition or written declaration;
- when it is needed for the performance of contract, the general terms and conditions of sale or use or the performance of pre-contractual measures;
- for the compliance of legal or regulatory obligations and the legitimate interests of Chronopost.

If optional data is requested, Chronopost will be given a clear explanation of the Data we need to provide the requested service and the data you may decide to provide voluntarily.

Data is collected either directly from you or from the sender of your parcel, if you are the addressee.

Data is only used for the purposes made clear to you or the sender of your parcel.

Data is only used for the purposes of commercial marketing if you have agreed to receive marketing communications.

The French Data Protection Authority (CNIL) does however authorise us to e-mail you communications about offers regarding similar products and services to those you have already used from the company (www.cnil.fr/fr/la-prospection-commerciale-par-courrier-electronique). You are, of course, free to oppose this commercial marketing.

 

How is Data collected from children?

Some of our services may be used by children. They must obtain the consent of their parents or legal representatives.

 

To which services or companies is your Data transferred?

Your data may be transferred to:

- Departments within Chronopost: departments in charge of performing subscribed services.

- Service providers outside Chronopost with whom we always sign a contract ensuring the respect of your Data and particularly transport sub-contractors that may be entrusted with carrying out your delivery.

- Within Le Groupe La Poste.

 

Where is your Data stored and can it be transferred to non-EU countries?

Chronopost carries out all Data processing activities within the European Union (EU).

However, for some specific services and particularly for the services provided by customer services, Chronopost may need to call on the services of sub-contractors located outside the EU. Some of your Data may therefore be transferred to them for the strict purposes of their services. In such cases and in accordance with the regulations in force, Chronopost requires its data processors to provide the necessary safeguards to ensure regulated, secure transfers, mainly by requiring them to sign the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

 

For how long does Chronopost retain your Data?

Different retention periods apply for the various services we provide. Chronopost undertakes not to retain your Data any longer than is necessary for the provision of the service or for compliance with the retention periods arising from the applicable limitation periods.
