This page explains our duties as a service provider and your duties as a user. Please read it with care.

Definitions

Provisions and Services: everything that DataScientist.fr makes available to Customers.

Content: all items that make up the Site, such as text, images and videos.

Customer information: below called “Information”. This covers all personal data that DataScientist.fr may hold about you. We use it to manage your account, to handle our customer relationship, and to produce analyses and statistics.

User: any person who connects to the Site and uses it.

Personal information: “Information which allows, in any form whatsoever, directly or indirectly, the identification of the natural persons to whom it applies” (article 4 of law no. 78-17 of January 6, 1978).

The terms “personal data”, “data subject”, “processor” and “sensitive data” have the meaning given by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR: n° 2016-679).

1. Presentation of the website

Article 6 of law no. 2004-575 of June 21, 2004 applies to this Site. That law covers confidence in the digital economy. It requires us to name everyone who builds and runs the Site. Here they are.

2. General conditions of use of the site and the services offered

The Site is a protected work. It falls under the Intellectual Property Code and under the international rules that apply. You may not reuse, transfer or exploit any part of it for your own account.

By using DataScientist.fr, you accept the general conditions below in full. We may change them or add to them at any time. Please check them on a regular basis.

The Site is normally open to users at all times. We may still pause it for technical upkeep. When we can, we tell users the dates and times in advance. Our publication manager updates the Site on a regular basis. We may also change this legal notice at any time. It still binds you, so please read it often.

3. Description of services provided

The DataScientist.fr site presents all of the company's activities. We try to keep the information there as accurate as we can. Even so, we are not liable for gaps, errors or missing updates. This holds true whether they come from us or from the partner firms that supply the information.

All information on the Site is given as a guide only. It can change at any time. It is also not exhaustive. It may have changed since it went online.

4. Contractual limitations on technical data

The Site uses JavaScript. We are not liable for damage to your equipment caused by using the Site. In return, you agree to browse with recent equipment. It must be free of viruses and run an up-to-date browser. A provider inside the European Union hosts the Site, as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR: n° 2016-679) requires.

Our aim is the best possible uptime. The host runs its service 24 hours a day, every day of the year. It may still stop that service for the shortest time it can. This can happen for upkeep or for work on its infrastructure. It can also follow a failure, or traffic deemed abnormal.

DataScientist.fr and the host are not liable if the Internet network fails. The same applies to phone lines and to computer and phone equipment. Network congestion that blocks access to the server is one such case.

5. Intellectual property and counterfeits

DataScientist.fr owns the intellectual property rights on the Site. It also holds the usage rights on every item you can reach there. This covers text, images, graphics, logos, videos, icons and sounds.

You may not copy, display, change, publish or adapt any part of the Site. This holds true whatever the means or process used. You need our written consent first.

Any use of the Site without our consent counts as infringement. We may then act under articles L.335-2 and following of the Intellectual Property Code.

6. Limitations of Liability

DataScientist.fr publishes this Site. We answer for the quality and the truth of the Content we publish.

We are not liable for direct or indirect damage to your equipment when you reach the Site. This covers damage caused by equipment that does not meet the specifications in point 4. It also covers damage caused by a bug or by a clash between systems.

We are not liable for indirect damage either, such as a lost market or a lost opportunity.

You can ask questions in our contact area. We may delete any content posted there without notice if it breaks French law. Rules on data protection are one example. We may also seek civil or criminal action against you. Racist, offensive, defamatory or pornographic messages are clear cases, whatever the medium used: text, photo and so on.

7. Personal data management

Several rules govern marketing communication, and the Customer is informed of them. They include the law of June 21, 2014 on confidence in the digital economy. They also include the Data Protection and Freedom Law of August 6, 2004. Finally, they include the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR: n° 2016-679).

7.1 Persons responsible for collecting personal data

We collect Personal Data when you create your account and when you browse the Site. For that data, the controller is DataScientist.fr. Hatim CHAHDI is its legal representative.

As the controller of the data it collects, DataScientist.fr follows the law in force. In particular, the Client must set the purposes of its own processing. The Client must also give full information to its prospects and clients when it collects their consent. It must keep a record of processing activities that matches reality.

We process Personal Data with care. Each time, we take every reasonable step to keep it accurate and relevant for the purpose.

7.2 Purpose of the data collected

DataScientist.fr may process all or part of your data for the purposes below.

  • To run the Site and to manage and trace the services you order. This uses connection and usage data, billing records and order history.
  • To prevent and fight computer fraud, such as spamming and hacking. This uses the equipment you browse with, your IP address and your password (hashed).
  • To improve browsing on the Site. This uses connection and usage data.
  • To run optional satisfaction surveys. This uses your email address.
  • To run communication campaigns by SMS or email. This uses your phone number and your email address.

DataScientist.fr does not sell your personal data. We use it only when we need it, or for statistics and analysis.

7.3 Right of access, rectification and opposition

Under the European rules in force, Users of DataScientist.fr have the rights below.

  • The right to access your data (article 15 GDPR).
  • The right to correct, update and complete your data (article 16 GDPR).
  • The right to block or erase your data (article 17 GDPR). This applies when the data is wrong, incomplete, unclear or out of date. It also applies when the law bars its collection, use, sharing or storage.
  • The right to withdraw your consent at any time (article 13-2c GDPR).
  • The right to restrict how we process your data (article 18 GDPR).
  • The right to object to our processing (article 21 GDPR).
  • The right to portability of the data you gave us (article 20 GDPR). It applies when we process that data by automated means, based on your consent or on a contract.

Once we learn that a User has died, and if they left no instructions, we destroy their data. We keep it only when we need it as evidence or to meet a legal duty.

You can ask how DataScientist.fr uses your Personal Data. You can also ask us to correct it, or object to our processing. Write to us at this address.

DataScientist.fr – DPO, Hatim CHAHDI 128 Rue de la Boétie 75008 Paris.

Please state which Personal Data you want us to correct, update or delete. Please also identify yourself with a copy of an identity card or a passport.

Requests to delete Personal Data remain subject to the duties the law places on us. Rules on keeping and archiving documents are one example. You can also file a complaint with the supervisory authorities, and in France with the CNIL (Complaints | CNIL).

7.4 Non-communication of personal data

We collect Information about our Customers. We never process, host or transfer it to a country outside the European Union without telling the customer first. The same holds for any country the European Commission deems “inadequate”. We stay free to choose our technical and commercial processors. They must offer strong enough guarantees under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR: n° 2016-679).

We take every needed precaution to keep the Information secure. In particular, we make sure it never reaches people who are not authorised. An incident may affect the integrity or the privacy of a Client's Information. If we learn of one, we tell that Client as soon as we can. We also describe the corrective steps we took. DataScientist.fr does not collect any “sensitive data”.

Subsidiaries of DataScientist.fr and our processors may handle your Personal Data. They do so only to meet the purposes set out in this policy.

Within the limits of their own duties, the people most likely to reach User data are our customer service agents.

8. Incident notification

No way of sending data over the Internet is fully secure. The same is true of electronic storage. So we cannot promise absolute security. If we learn of a breach, we tell the users affected so they can act. Our incident procedures follow our legal duties, both national and European. We keep our customers fully informed about the security of their account. We also give them what they need to meet their own reporting duties.

We never publish a user's personal information without their knowledge. We do not exchange, transfer, assign or sell it to third parties on any medium. One case is an exception. If DataScientist.fr and its rights are bought, the buyer may receive that information. The buyer would then owe you the same duties of storage and change.

Security

We protect our networks to keep Personal Data and Personal Health Data secure and private. We use standard tools such as firewalls, pseudonymisation, encryption and passwords.

When we process Personal Data, we take every reasonable step to protect it. That means guarding against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, change or destruction.

9. Hypertext links “cookies” and internet tags

The DataScientist.fr site holds a number of links to other sites, set up with our consent. We cannot check what those sites contain. So we accept no responsibility for them.

Unless you turn cookies off, you agree that the Site may use them. You can turn them off at any time, free of charge, with the options described below. Note that this may reduce or block access to some or all of the Services.

9.1 « COOKIES »

A “cookie” is a small file sent to your browser. Your device stores it, be it a computer or a smartphone. It holds details such as your domain name and your Internet provider. It also holds your operating system and the date and time of your visit. Cookies cannot damage your device.

We may process details about your visit to the Site. These include the pages you view and the searches you run. This helps us improve the content of the Site and your browsing.

Cookies make browsing easier and help us provide our services. You can still set your browser to accept or reject them. You can do so for all cookies, or by issuer. You can also ask your browser to prompt you each time, before a cookie is stored on your device. If you do, some features of your browser may not work.

You may refuse cookies, or delete the ones already stored. In that case, your browsing and your experience on the Site may be limited. The same may happen if we or a provider cannot detect your browser type. It also applies to your language and display settings, and to the country you connect from.

We accept no responsibility for a degraded Site in two cases. The first is when you refuse cookies. The second is when your choice stops us from storing or reading the cookies our services need. Each browser handles cookies in its own way. Its help menu explains how to change your choices.

You can state and change your cookie choices at any time. We may also use outside providers to help us collect and process the details described here.

The Site shows icons for the social networks Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin and Google Plus. You may have accepted cookies by continuing to browse our Website or mobile application. If so, those networks may also place cookies on your devices. This covers computers, tablets and mobile phones.

These cookies are placed only with your consent, which you give by continuing to browse. You can withdraw that consent at any time.

You can modify your cookie usage preferences

9.2 INTERNET TAGS

DataScientist.fr may sometimes use web beacons. They are also known as tags, action tags, single-pixel GIFs, transparent GIFs, invisible GIFs or one-to-one GIFs. A specialist web analytics partner deploys them. That partner may sit in another country, and may store the matching details there, including your IP address.

These tags sit in the online adverts that lead users to the Site. They also sit on the pages of the Site itself.

They let us measure how visitors respond to the Site and how well our actions work. For example, we count how often a page opens and which details people read. We also see how you use the Site.

The outside provider may collect details about visitors to this Site and to other sites that use these tags. It may build reports on the activity of the Site for us. It may also supply other services about the use of the Site and of the Internet.

10. Applicable law and attribution of jurisdiction

French law governs any dispute about the use of the DataScientist.fr site. The competent courts have sole jurisdiction, except where the law does not allow it.
