Privacy policy

01Who is responsible

Vigie Group (“Vigie Group”, “we”, “us”) is the controller of the personal data processed through this website. You can reach us at any time through the details shown on our contact page.

02What we collect

We only collect what we need.

Data you give us through the contact form:

• Identity and contact details: name, role, work email and, if you choose, phone number.
• Organisation details: organisation name, industry, country and size.
• Your enquiry: topic, service of interest, timeline, preferred contact method and message.

03Data collected automatically

When you visit the site, our hosting provider processes technical data needed to deliver and secure it: IP address, browser type, pages requested and timestamps, kept in server logs.

With your consent only, we may measure visits using privacy-friendly analytics that do not use cookies or build profiles. See our cookie policy for details.

04Why we use it and on what basis

We use personal data for clear purposes, each with a legal basis:

• To answer your enquiry and prepare a proposal — steps taken at your request before a contract, and our legitimate interest in responding.
• To manage our relationship with clients and prospects — our legitimate interest.
• To consider spontaneous job applications — steps taken at your request.
• To operate, secure and improve the website — our legitimate interest; measurement only with your consent.
• To meet legal obligations, such as accounting or responding to authorities.

05What we never do

We do not sell personal data, rent it, or use it for automated decision-making or profiling that affects you.

06Who receives it

Your data is handled by our team and, where needed, by service providers acting on our instructions under contractual safeguards:

• Website hosting and content delivery.
• Email delivery for contact-form messages.
• Privacy-friendly analytics, only if you consent.

07International transfers

Some providers may process data outside your country. Where that happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses, and we choose providers with strong security commitments.

08How long we keep it

We keep data no longer than necessary:

• Enquiries that do not lead to an engagement: up to 3 years after our last contact.
• Job applications: up to 2 years, unless you ask us to delete them sooner.
• Server logs: up to 12 months.
• Your cookie choice: 6 months, after which we ask again.

09How we protect it

We use encryption in transit (HTTPS), access restricted to people who need it, reputable providers and regular reviews of our practices. No method is perfectly secure, but we act quickly if an incident occurs and notify you and the authorities where required.

10Your rights

Depending on the law that applies to you, you can:

• Access your data and receive a copy.
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Ask us to delete your data.
• Restrict or object to certain processing, including at any time to direct marketing.
• Receive your data in a portable format.
• Withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting earlier processing.
• Lodge a complaint with your data protection authority.
