This Privacy Policy describes the methods we, Carpet Society, use to collect, manage and use information about visitors to our website. This Policy may be amended, supplemented, deleted or updated; however, we will always treat your Personal Information in accordance with the Policy in effect at the time it was collected. Our goal is to regularly notify you on this page of any changes to this Policy, so that you are always fully informed about the categories of information we collect, how we use it, and the circumstances in which it may be disclosed.

1. Guarantees on data confidentiality

The term “Personal Data”, as used in this Policy, refers to information such as your name, date of birth, email address or telephone number, which allows you to be identified. Generally, we will process your Personal Data in accordance with the procedure described in this Policy. We reserve the right to carry out additional processing that would be required by law, or in the context of an investigation, in particular criminal. The following sections explain how we collect your Personal Data.

2. Use of Personal Data

Most of our services do not require any form of registration or sign-up, allowing you to visit our site without having to identify yourself. However, some services may require you to provide certain Personal Data. In these cases, if you choose not to provide the information we request, you may not be able to access certain parts of the site, and we may be unable to respond to your request. Depending on local regulations, your Personal Data allows us to provide you with products or services, to bill you for the products and services requested, to offer you products and services that may be of interest to you, or to communicate with you for other purposes that are obvious in the circumstances and about which we inform you when we collect your Personal Data.

3. Non-communication of personal data

Your Personal Data will never be sold, shared or communicated to third parties, except in the cases provided for in this Policy. However, we may be required to communicate your Personal Data to the company technically responsible for this site (savoirfaire.digital), which agrees to process them in accordance with this Policy. These transfers take place within the framework of agreements by which these companies have undertaken to respect the level of protection of personal data offered by European legislation or in accordance with other mechanisms recognized by the legislation in force. Your Personal Data may also be communicated to third parties acting for us or on our behalf as part of specific processing in accordance with the purposes for which they were initially collected, or may be legally processed, according to the local regulations in force, as part of activities such as providing services, evaluating the usefulness of this site, marketing and product marketing, data management or technical support. These third parties have contractually agreed to use your Personal Data only for the agreed purposes, and not to sell or disclose it to other third parties unless required to do so by law, if we explicitly authorize them to do so, or if a provision to that effect is provided in this Policy. Personal Data may be disclosed to a third party if we are compelled to do so by applicable law or regulation, a court order or a government regulation, or if such disclosure is necessary in connection with an investigation or criminal proceeding, whether domestic or foreign.

4. Right of access, rectification and opposition

Whenever we process Personal Data, we take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data is accurate and relevant to the purposes for which we collect it. You have the right to object to the processing of your Personal Data for legitimate reasons, that is, if such processing is not reasonably necessary for the pursuit of our legitimate interests as described in this Policy, or to comply with the law. In the event of prospecting, including by electronic means, we will provide you with the means to object to receiving information or to consent to it, in accordance with the law.

What cookies do we use on the site?

• Functional cookies: These cookies are specific to the content management platform, which can be described as the “engine” of the site. These cookies allow certain features of the site to be managed. They are anonymous (no information collected can be linked to your identity). In addition, with the exception of the cookie setting your language preference, they expire when you close your browser. They are therefore deleted from your computer or terminal when you exit this software.

Statistical cookies allow us to know, for example, the number of visitors, their geographical location, their journey on the site (how and by which page they accessed it, the pages that followed in their session and the page by which they left the site), the time of the visit, etc. These cookies are anonymous and their lifespan can be up to 2 years.

How to control cookies? You can control and/or delete cookies as you wish using your browser configuration settings. You can delete all cookies that are already on your computer and you can set most browsers to prevent them from being placed.

We strictly adhere to laws designed to protect children.

8. Links to other sites

This Privacy Policy applies only to this site, and not to websites owned by third parties. We sometimes provide links to other websites that we believe may be of interest to our visitors. In this case we ensure that these sites meet the highest criteria. However, due to the very nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee the rules of confidentiality and protection of personal data of the websites for which we provide an access link and cannot be held responsible for the content of sites other than this one, this Policy not being applicable to third-party sites.
