Processing of Users’ Connection Data

In connection with the provision and proper functioning of the Services, QUANTEEC may process certain Users’ connection data, including Users’ IP addresses and the city associated with their connection. For this specific processing, QUANTEEC acts as an independent data controller in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”) and French Law No. 78-17 of 6 January 1978 on Information Technology, Data Files and Civil Liberties, as amended. QUANTEEC processes Users’ connection data on the basis of its legitimate interests, in order to:

• ensure the proper functioning, security and reliability of the system and the Services;
• connect the various elements and Users involved in the Services; and
• ensure compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Connection data is accessible only to QUANTEEC and only to the extent necessary for the above purposes. It is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil these purposes and in accordance with applicable legal requirements. IP addresses are hashed by the system less than one (1) second after processing, where technically applicable. Subject to applicable data protection laws, Users may exercise their rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection and, where applicable, data portability, by contacting QUANTEEC at privacy@quanteec.com.

Users may also lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority, including the French Data Protection Authority (CNIL), where applicable.
