Cookies & Other Technologies

Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to collect information about the use of our Services. Google Analytics collects information such as how often you visit the Services, which pages you visited when they do so, and which other sites they used prior to coming to our Services. We do not merge the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable data. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to and use of the Services is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy. You can learn more about how Google collects and processes data specifically in connection with Google Analytics here. Further information about your option to opt-out of these analytics services is available here.

We do not have any agreements with any companies/organizations to analyze your visits and behavior.

Others
We also use technologies that help us determine whether you have opened an e-mail or clicked on a link contained in an e-mail. Collection of this information allows us to collect data on the effectiveness of our web sites and product offering and helps to personalize your experience and our interactions with you. If you wish for us not to use the data in this way then please send us an email.

Optional or mandatory information
All forms used to collect personal data use asterisks to inform customers and prospects whether information is mandatory or optional. If answers are mandatory, Targeting Longevity explains the consequences of not providing an answer to customers and prospects.

Security
Targeting Longevity is responsible for defining and implementing physical or logical security technical measures that it deems appropriate to prevent the unauthorized accidental or illegal destruction, loss, alteration or disclosure of data. These measures mainly include:

  • Data access control;
  • Use of an encryption protocol such as SSL for transferring data between user devices and the company’s servers;
  • Data hosting in data centers with maximum security;
  • Access to infrastructure via VPN – only certain preselected people are authorized to create a tunnel;
  • Regular and systematic application of security patches on infrastructure components.

Changes
This policy may be changed or amended at any time in the event of changes to legislation, case law, decisions and recommendation or uses. Customers and prospects will be informed of any new versions of this policy by any means chosen by Targeting Longevity, including electronically (e.g. via email or online).

Right to transparency and being informed
Customers have a right to be informed about the collection and use of their personal data. Customers and prospects also have a right to access, provided the following rules are followed:

  • The request is issued by the person themselves, and is accompanied by a copy of a current piece of ID;
  • The request is made in writing and sent to our email address.

Customers and prospects have the right to ask Targeting Longevity for a copy of their processed personal data. However, if an additional copy is requested, Targeting Longevity may require that customers and prospects bear the financial cost. If customers and prospects request a copy of their data via email, the information requested will be provided in standard electronic format, unless requested otherwise. Customers and prospects are also informed that their right of access does not apply to confidential information or data, or data that the law prohibits from being communicated.

The right of access must not be exercised abusively, meaning on a regular basis for the sole purpose of disturbing the department in question.

Right of rectification
Targeting Longevity meets update requests:

  • Automatically for online changes for fields that can be technically or legally updated;
  • On written request of the data subject, with proof of identity.

Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten)
You have, subject to certain conditions being met, the right to be forgotten. The right to the erasure of customers and prospects does not apply if data is processed to comply with legal obligations. Where we can, we will remove all your details from our systems subject to being able to do so reasonably, and where no other legal or legitimate reason exists to keep your personal data.

Below are some restrictive cases:

  • If personal data is no longer required for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed;
  • If the data subject withdraws consent to the original purpose for processing and there is no other justified reason for processing;
  • If the data subject is opposed to Targeting Longevity processing their data for legitimate purposes and there is no legitimate urgent reason for processing;
  • If the data subject is opposed to their personal data being processed for prospecting and profiling purposes;
  • If personal data was illegally processed.

For security reasons, the relevant department must therefore verify your identity to prevent your confidential information from being communicated to someone other than yourself.

Right to restrict processing of your personal data
Customers and prospects are advised that this right is meant to be exercised if data is legally processed by Targeting Longevity and if all the personal data collected is required for the performance of the sales agreement.

Right to data portability
Targeting Longevity allows for data portability in the particular case of data communicated by the customers or prospects themselves, for online services provided by Targeting Longevity itself and for purposes needing the sole consent of data subjects. In this case, data will be communicated in in a form that can easily be used by other systems.

Right of use
Customers and prospects grant Targeting Longevity the right to use and process their personal data for the purposes stated above. However, Targeting Longevity maintains ownership of enriched data produced from Targeting Longevity processing and analysis (usage analysis, statistics, etc.).
