PRIVACY POLICY

MAISON DUCASSE PARIS

Updated on 23/02/2024

 

Introduction

 

Maison Ducasse Paris attaches great importance to your personal data. We are committed to offering you customised services – whether we are processing or managing the confidentiality or security of your personal data – while respecting your privacy and personal choices.

 

This document is our privacy policy (hereafter the “Privacy Policy”). Whether it is personal data which you have provided directly, or which one of our companies has collected through the various contacts you may have had with us (in-store, customer service, restaurants, website, social networks, digital applications, events, competitions), we want to inform you in a straightforward, transparent, and comprehensive manner how your personal data is processed and how it may be transferred to third parties. This Privacy Policy also covers your rights and options to control your personal data and to protect your privacy pursuant to prevailing regulations.

 

When you visit, make a purchase or browse the CUCINA website, you may find yourself switching from RESTAURANT DE LA MUTUALITE to DE GUSTIBUS and vice versa. Thus the data controller – within the meaning of applicable regulations on the Protection of Personal Data, and particularly with regard to Article 24 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (hereinafter “GDPR”) – will either be RESTAURANT DE LA MUTUALITE or DE GUSTIBUS.

What information do we collect?

 

Personal data is information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

 

We may collect your personal data directly from you with your consent (e.g. when you visit one of our websites, buy a product in one of our online stores), or indirectly (e.g. when you visit one of our websites, or fill in electronic forms or applications (“digital platforms”) from your computer, tablet, or mobile phone).

 

You may provide us with information directly, in one or more of the ways described below when you:

– create an account online or in our stores

– make a booking at one of our restaurants

– subscribe to our newsletter

– use our digital platforms

– purchase products or services on our digital platforms or in our stores

– participate in one of our events

 

Depending on what information you have provided, such data may include:

– your personal identity (including your first name, last name, and gender)

– your contact details (including postal and email addresses and telephone number(s))

– your personal status (including your title or form of address)

About Us

– your preferences (dietary, contact method, etc.)

– certain payment information (including billing data, type or method of payment, credit or debit card number)

– other information you may provide by filling in forms or contacting us (including your ratings, reviews and comments, or any other correspondence you have with us).

 

Some of this information is needed to answer your requests or to provide you with products or services. If you refuse to provide this information, it may result in delays or even mean we are unable to handle your request.

In order to provide you with the best possible experience, we encourage you to update your information if it changes.

Lastly, we recommend that you only disclose data that is strictly necessary or related to your request, and that you exclude any sensitive personal data related to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, and sex life or sexual orientation.

 

Information collected indirectly:

 

When you use our digital platforms, we may collect data indirectly for the purpose of operating, analysing, customising or optimising your digital experience. This data may include your IP address as well as other browsing information (browser used, operating system, device characteristics). To do this, we use cookies or similar technology placed on your device.

If you would like more information about cookies, please see our Cookie Policy.

 

In the course of our business, and specifically in the case of third party orders (e.g. gift certificates or an order where the billing and delivery addresses differ), we may collect information about you from third parties. In this case, the person providing your personal data must ensure that they have the right to provide it to us and that we can collect, use, and disclose it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If for example you would like to gift one or more of Maison Ducasse Paris’s services or products, you must make sure that the person receiving the gift is aware of the information described in this Privacy Policy. The same person must also consent to the way we process their personal data as per this Privacy Policy.

 

 

How we use your data

 

We may use your personal data in different ways, depending on the relationship you have with Maison Ducasse Paris. It should be understood that, depending on why we have collected it, we may use one or several items of said data. Below we have listed how we use the data collected to:

– Manage your orders
– Provide you with personalised content and communications from Maison Ducasse Paris
– Manage your booking
– Manage your subscription
– Manage any requests you may have regarding MaisonDucasse Paris
– Manage our website and digital applications
– Improve our products and services, image and reputation
– Manage transactions (secure online payments, fraud prevention, payment and debt incidents)
– Send a generic newsletter: you have the right to opt out if you no longer wish to receive it

– Personalise our advertising and targeted offers

 

The data is collected in order to:

– Analyse the performance of our brand on third-party websites and social networks in order to produce statistical analyses (market research, brand influence, and analysis of campaigns implemented).

– Analyse your preferences and habits, anticipate your needs based on your consumer profile and from your posts/mentions on social networks.

– Bring you a personalised customer experience: we may provide you with tailored messages and marketing offers via email, post, SMS, or phone calls. With your freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous consent (where required), we use your personal data to send you personalised, interest-based messages (newsletters, offers, advertisements, special offers, invitations and surveys).

We may also send you personalised messages or content in which we use techniques known as profiling and fully automated decision-making. Under Article 4 of the GDPR, profiling is defined as processing that uses an individual’s personal data to analyse and predict behaviour.

Meanwhile fully automated decision-making is defined as a decision made about an individual, through algorithms applied to their personal data, without any human involvement.

Pursuant to Article 22 of the GDPR, there are specific provisions governing fully automated decision-making, whether or not these decisions are based on profiling. Thus, as a matter of law, you have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, if it would produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you.

In the case of fully automated decisions, you have additional rights as set out below:

  • Specific transparency obligations: in addition to this policy informing you about the existence of this type of decision, you may at any time, by simple request to Maison Ducasse Paris’s DPO (dpo@ducasse-paris.com), obtain a full list of this type of processing and the underlying logic.
  • Right to human intervention: any person who has been the subject of a fully automated decision may request that a human intervene, in particular in order to re-examine their situation, express their own point of view, obtain an explanation of the decision taken or even challenge it.

All of the aforementioned purposes require a lawful basis for processing your data, which, depending on the context, may be:

– Your explicit consent: for example, for the purposes of managing our personalised marketing offers, managing your browsing via cookies under the terms and conditions defined by our Cookie Policy, or establishing your consumer profile, if applicable

– Execution of a contract e.g. to process and track your orders, access your customer account, join our loyalty programme, etc.

– A legal obligation when processing is required by law, for example, by keeping purchase invoices to prevent fraud

– Our legitimate interest: e.g. to improve our products and services, defend ourselves, or secure our tools

 

How long do we keep your data for?

 

We may keep your personal data for a variable period of time, depending on the purpose. Whether it is personal data which you have provided directly, or which one of our companies has collected through the various contacts you may have had with us (in-store, customer service, restaurants, websites, social networks, digital applications, events, competitions), we want to inform you in a straightforward, transparent, and comprehensive manner how your personal data is processed and how it may be transferred to third parties.

Customers (with a profile on our digital platforms or an in-store customer) – 5 years from the date of the last purchase interaction

Prospects (e.g. who have subscribed to a newsletter, but who have not made a purchase) – 3 years from the date of data collection. This retention period may be renewed by any means of consent during the retention period, or during any interactions with Maison Ducasse Paris (e.g. newsletter registration, participation in a competition)

At the end of the aforementioned retention periods, your personal data will be deleted or anonymised so that it is no longer possible to identify you (this excludes data that is subject to legal and/or regulatory obligations including transactions, claims, and litigation).

 

Who can access your data?

 

Your data is solely intended for the Maison Ducasse Paris department concerned by your requests. We take great care to ensure that only duly authorised persons can access your personal data, and only when this is necessary for the aforementioned purposes.

We do not share your data with third parties for commercial purposes.

We will only disclose your information to the following third parties on a need-to-know basis, and then only in such a way that direct identification is not possible:

– Other Maison Ducasse Paris entities where you may purchase our products, in order to provide you with the best and most consistent customer experience possible

– Our trusted third party service providers, including other Maison Ducasse Paris entities, acting as subcontractors according to our instructions and only on our behalf.

For example, we may need to pass your personal information to third parties in charge of delivering your orders, or who help us manage our customer relations/customer service.

– Our trusted third party partners who assist us in managing your orders. In particular, we outsource certain services to third parties who are responsible for delivering products to you, to payment service providers, and to providers of anti-fraud transaction security.

Please note that our partners may act as data controllers in their own right. As such they will have their own privacy policies:

– Third parties who would like to know your interests so that they can build up similar audiences and target prospects who match your profile. For this specific type of processing, we are not the data controller for prospecting and you will not be prospected, your data is used solely to build up profiles similar to yours.

As some of your data may be collected, accessed, and stored outside your country of residence, we inform you that Maison Ducasse Paris has taken necessary and sufficient measures to guarantee the security and confidentiality of your data by applying methods approved by the European Commission and/or national data protection authorities.
