2 BtoC personal data processed by CARTEGIE within the context of its activity as a subcontractor
Within the context of its BtoC business, CARTEGIE undertakes to comply with the provisions of Law no. 78-17 of 6th January 1978 as amended, relating to data processing, files and freedoms, as well as Regulation 679/2016 of 27th April 2016 on the protection of personal data.
CARTEGIE undertakes to take the necessary measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of the personal data entrusted to it. CARTEGIE processes personal data only on instruction and on behalf of its partners and customers.
Origins of the data processed
CARTEGIE does not collect data from individuals. Its Partners, file owners, collect the data from individuals and then transmit their database to CARTEGIE as a subcontractor to create a marketing database.
Within the framework of its partnerships, CARTEGIE only has contracts with companies that undertake to comply with current legislation regarding the processing of personal data.
The personal data that CARTEGIE processes comes from file owners from the following fields of activity:
– Online stores
– Large retailers
– Competitions / Coregistration / Vertical websites
The use of the processed data
CARTEGIE sells data from its partners’ databases to its customers.
CARTEGIE helps its customers build and optimise their marketing, loyalty, customer relations and advertising campaigns, studies and surveys through statistical processing and analysis in order to:
– Select contacts for a marketing and/or advertising campaign
– Enable our customer to get to know their customers and therefore build loyalty.
– Enable relevant surveys and studies to be conducted.
Different channels can be used to contact people: post, telephone, email, text.
Operations allowing personalised communication can be carried out in order to contact you only within the framework of your interests.
To carry out these processing operations, CARTEGIE acts exclusively at the request of its customers and on their behalf.
CARTEGIE never comes into contact with people for its own purposes.
Once the selection operation has been carried out by CARTEGIE, the data is either processed by CARTEGIE on behalf of its customers, or transferred to service providers designated by the Customer, or transmitted to the customer.
3 BtoB personal data processed by CARTEGIE within the context of its activity as processing manager
The processing manager is: CARTEGIE 3 rue Christian Franceries, Parc Chavailles 2, CS 80011, 33522 BRUGES
Legal basis of the processing operation: the processing operation is built around one of the legal bases provided for in Article 6 of the GDPR, namely the legitimate interest of the processing manager.

Indeed, the legitimate interest is one criterion for legitimising the processing of personal data. Recital 47 of the GDPR states that “The legitimate interests of a processing manager, including those of a processing manager to whom personal data may be disclosed, may constitute a legal basis for the processing, unless the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject prevail, taking into account the reasonable expectations of the data subjects based on their relationship with the processing manager. The processing of personal data for the purpose of canvassing may be considered as being carried out in response to a legitimate interest”.
Purposes of the processing operation:
Transmit information to its customers for commercial solicitation, research and customer knowledge purposes.
Develop directories of professionals and decision-makers in order to propose offers and/or products related to their function and/or activity.

6 Data protection
CARTEGIE has defined a strict security and confidentiality policy for personal data.
CARTEGIE employees with access to the data are regularly made aware of the security of personal data and, more generally, of IT security.
Thus, user authentication, clearance management and workstation security follow strict rules.
An IT charter signed by all employees covers all these points.
The protection of the information system is our priority. The data is stored in our own Data Centre in France located at CARTEGIE’s headquarters.
Our infrastructure is managed by our administrators who are in control of all security conditions, ensuring full control of the data entrusted to us. Regular maintenance operations are carried out and we have a backup system.
The physical security of the premises is ensured by a remote monitoring system and data is stored in a secure environment with restricted access.
All our data transfers are made via secure protocols such as HTTPS, SFTP or CFT. These protocols guarantee data encryption and for CFT, additional compression.
In the event of a data breach, a procedure has been put in place to notify our Partners as soon as possible and to document the elements necessary to inform the supervisory authority if required
In April 2019, Base Plus, a subsidiary of the CARTÉGIE Group, was one of the first companies to obtain the Privacy Protection – Pact label, which confirms its commitment to respecting and securing personal data. More information >
