Politique de confidentialité Last update : 10 novembre 2023 FLEX-N-GATE Group Privacy Policy Website : index.studio Effective Date: May 24, 2018 The Flex-N-Gate Group of Companies (“FNG,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy and the data that you share with us. This Privacy Policy describes how Flex may collect, use, and share information, particularly in association with the operation of our website (www.flex-n-gate.com), FNG-operated pages on social media sites, and any HTML-formatted emails or communications that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Flex Digital Services”). This Privacy Policy does not apply to information which is protected by confidentiality, privilege, or any other similar protections. Flex-N-Gate is committed to protecting the privacy and security of the personal information of our customers, vendors and employees. Like many of our customers and vendors, FNG is working hard to prepare our programs for the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which is in full effect as of May 25, 2018. You can view our updated Privacy Policy below. Nothing is changing about your current settings or how your information is processed. Rather, we’ve improved the way we describe our practices and how we explain the options you have to update, manage, export, and delete your data. This is not a new effort for us, but rather a continuation of an existing company commitment to transparency with our customers and employees regarding our data collection, use, retention and sharing practices. This is also a continuation of our commitment to implement appropriate technical security measures to protect all FNG stakeholders. FNG builds on the foundation and discipline necessary to develop and support some of the leading privacy and security products in the world. As part of our Privacy and Security Program, we are implementing a governance structure to engage senior management on data privacy and security issues as well as train each of our employees on privacy and security expectations. This structure also aligns policies, procedures and technical controls to demonstrate our process and our commitment to our customers and users. Further, we are extending embedded privacy and security by design into our product life cycle processes, and implemented a program to manage third-party risk. We remain fully committed to approaching this initiative diligently with the utmost focus on securing and maintaining customer and vendor trust. What information do we collect?
