Our guiding principles for privacy

Our personal data collection and processing comply with the GDPR principles and the following guidelines :

- Gathering & processing of personal data by LINAGORA is never an end in itself. It aims at achieving a legitimate and licit purpose, and is strictly proportionate and necessary to the achievement of said purpose.

- LINAGORA never keeps collected data any longer than strictly necessary to achieve the purpose it was collected for. If the purpose can be achieved with pseudonymized or anonymized personal data, then the collected data is pseudonymized or anonymized before being processed in order to achieve the purpose. When the data is no longer necessary for achieving the purpose, data is either destroyed, anonymized, or (when the law requires it) archived.

- When entrusting third-party partner companies with the task of subprocessing user personal data, LINAGORA takes care that such companies comply with a data privacy protection level at least equal to the level of protection provided to EU citizens by LINAGORA.

- In order for us to provide you with the best possible experience when using our Services, we want to collect and process certain information. Depending on your use of the Services, this may include:

A. Your contact information - when you request help, send us questions or comments, or report a problem, we will collect your name, email address, message, etc. We will only use this information to respond to your requests. Because the collection of this information is necessary for the proper functioning of the service you request, your consent to the collection is always assumed.

B. Your statistical/cookie/behavioral data - when you visit our site or use the Services, we may collect the url of the website from which you visited us, the parts of our site you visit, the date and duration of your visit, your anonymous IP address, device information (device type, operating system, screen resolution, language, country you are in, type of web browser you used during your visit, etc.), and other information about your computer.

In order to improve the experience on our website it is interesting to know the path of our visitors. We therefore process this usage data with third-party partners for statistical purposes, to improve our Services and to recognize and stop any misuse.

Most of this statistical data is not necessary for providing you with the service and we will only collect it after having obtained your consent. You can withdraw your consent (or grant it again) at any time in your personal settings.
