Privacy – your data and your rights

GIP- Grasse Institute of Perfumery – collects and processes certain information about individuals. We want to inform you about how and why we collect and process this data, and what your rights are regarding this data.

Our ‘data subjects’ are participants at workshops, kits buyers and other people the association has a relationship with or may need to contact.

We are committed to handling personal data in compliance with the law. As an organization with an operational centre in the European Union, legal requirements include notably the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which enters into force on 25 May 2018.

GIP commits to collect and process personal data only when this data is:

  • processed fairly, in a transparent way and based on valid legal grounds
  • obtained for specific lawful purposes
  • adequate, relevant and not excessive
  • accurate and kept up to date
  • not held for longer than necessary
  • protected in appropriate ways and not transferred outside of the European Economic Area unless adequate protective measures are in place.

We are also committed to establishing and maintaining procedural and technical measures to prevent data breaches.

What personal data do we collect?

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This means someone who can be identified, directly or indirectly, by reference to information such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identify of that natural person.

GIP may collect the following categories of personal data to the extent necessary to achieve the purposes outlined in this policy:

  • Personal information, such as age, date of birth, gender, marital status, citizenship
  • Financial data, such as bank account details
  • Education and profession and employment data
  • We collect personal data directly from the data subjects.

From whom do we collect personal data, and why?

GIP collects personal data of staff for the purposes of managing and administering, its registered customers for the workshops or shop items (kits).

GIP processes identification details of individuals who register to participate in our workshops. This is done for the purpose of managing the registration to and participation in such events and to meet our obligations as a workshop organizer.

How long do we keep personal data?

GIP keeps personal data for the time that is strictly necessary to achieve the purpose(s) for which they were collected, such as for the duration of a contractual relationship, and for a period of time thereafter if so required by applicable law or if in the primary interests of the data subjects.

Do we transfer personal data?

GIP does not transfer personal data outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) unless adequate protective measures are in place.

Right to access your personal data
Right to rectify incorrect or incomplete personal data
Right to erase your personal data
