6. Optional disclosure of data to third parties

Only with the Users’ consent, ALD may communicate some of the User’s personal data to: (i) all companies belonging to the Société Générale group and (ii) third-party companies operating in the sectors of construction and marketing of vehicles or provision of related ancillary services, companies in the transport and mobility sector, insurance companies and other entities in the insurance chain, banks, companies in the tourism and hotel sector and e-commerce companies. If Users do not provide their consent to such optional communication, this will not prevent them from registering to the Site, as Users are free to give or revoke their consent at any time, by ticking the opt-out box contained in each promotional e-mail, or by contacting ALD at the addresses indicated at the bottom of item 9.

7. Data Retention

Registered Users’ personal data will be collected and stored as long as their account is active.

Beyond this case, navigation data will be retained for the least required period, without prejudice to any further period of data retention set out in the law.

8. Scope of communication and dissemination of data

The Users’ personal data may be disclosed to the employees and/or collaborators of ALD in charge of managing the Site. These individuals, who are formally appointed by ALD as "data processors", will process the Users' data exclusively for the purposes specified in this information notice and in compliance with current legislation on the processing of personal data. The Users’ personal data may also be disclosed to third parties who may process it on behalf of ALD as "external data processors", such as, for example, providers of IT and logistics services required to operate the Site, outsourcing or cloud computing service providers, professionals and consultants and companies in charge of sending promotional emails on behalf of ALD. The Users' data may be communicated to judicial authorities only in the event of accidental loss of data.

Users have the right to object, in whole or in part, to the processing of their personal data: a) for legitimate reasons, even if the data processed falls in the scope of collection, or b) for the purpose of sending advertising materials or direct selling or for carrying out market research or commercial communication activities.
Users have the right to data portability, i.e. the right to receive their data from ALD in a structured, commonly used and readable format from an automatic device, and to transmit such data to another data controller.
Users have the right to revoke at any time the consents given, without prejudice to the validity of the processing carried out before revocation.
