5- WHAT PERSONAL DATA DO WE COLLECT?

Your personal data is particularly collected and processed, entirely or
partially, when you browse the Site and enter information in its data collection
forms (brochure requests, registration for events, applications for our training
programmes, etc.) and, more generally, in the framework of your relations and
exchanges via the Site and subsequent (online or offline) communication with
INSEAD.

Generally, your data is therefore collected directly from you under the
circumstances mentioned below.

In addition to that information, you are informed that the data we collect and
process about you may be enhanced by us via information sources (other web
platforms provided by INSEAD, rental of files, recommendations or information
from third parties, etc.).

Furthermore, more specifically in relation to the information processed in this
respect by our recruitment operations, we use the information you send us by
email to incorporate into our file of applicants (CV library). However, we may
also contact third parties (e.g. recruitment agencies, previous employers,
internship supervisors or clients you have worked with in previous roles) to
collect information about you in order to study your application.

Within the Site, you are informed of the compulsory nature of providing your
personal data on each collection form by the presence of an asterisk alongside
the relevant field(s). Where no asterisk is present, the requested information
is optional.

If the compulsory information is not entered, the request associated with that
collection of personal data (e.g. brochure request, registration for an event,
application for a training programme, etc.) may not be able to be processed or
its processing may be delayed.

In respect of optional information requested, they are generally designed to
provide us with a better knowledge of Site users and their preferences. INSEAD
encourages users to provide this information in order to help ensure that the
contents of our Site remain relevant to your interests and needs.

 


6- WHO DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA WITH?

In the course of our activities, we may need to share your personal data.
Obviously, whenever we do so we always ensure optimal protection of your
personal data.

6.1- SHARING YOUR PERSONAL DATA WITH INSEAD AFFILIATES

We may transmit your personal data to INSEAD affiliates. Since we wish to be as
transparent as possible, below you will find a list of INSEAD affiliates with
whom we share your data and their locations.

purpose of participating in university/school rankings.

6.3- OTHER SHARING

With public authorities, in response to legal requests, including to respond to

In the context of a transaction, such as a merger, acquisition, consolidation or
sale of assets, we may need to share your personal data with buyers or sellers.

 


7- HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

INSEAD has determined precise rules concerning how long we retain your personal
data. This length of time varies depending on the different purposes and must
take into account any legal obligations to retain some of your data.

The retention time within INSEAD has been defined to allow us to process your
requests (brochures, contacts, registration for an event, job application or
registration for a training programme, etc.), manage and monitor them and/or
complete our prospecting, canvassing loyalty-building, communication and
marketing operations, while complying with the principle of proportionality
according to which personal data must not be retained for longer than necessary
to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected.

It is nevertheless specified that all of this data may be retained for longer
than the lengths of time mentioned in this article:

 * either with your consent
 * or in the form of archives, to respond to any legal or regulatory obligations
   applicable to INSEAD or for the legal limitation or objection periods
 * or in the form of data reused for the purposes of logs, statistics or
   research

 


8- HYPERLINKS TO EXTERNAL SITES

This Site includes links to third-party websites. Those sites are not managed or
updated by INSEAD and are therefore not covered by this charter. INSEAD does not
have any control over the content of those websites, nor over their
confidentiality policies, their use of personal data, use of cookies, or the way
in which they collect, process and store that data. You are therefore advised to
consult the terms and conditions for collecting and using personal data
established by those external sites before sending them any information.

 


9- WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS OVER YOUR PERSONAL DATA AND HOW CAN YOU EXERCISE THEM?

We wish to inform you as clearly as possible of your rights over your personal
data. We would also like to make it as easy as possible for you to exercise
those rights.

Below you will find a summary of your rights with a description of how to
exercise them.

personal data”, attaching a copy of your identity document showing your
signature as well as a brief description of the information you want to access.
Unless you indicate otherwise, you will receive the information requested free
of charge in electronic format within one month of receipt of the request, two
months in the case of a request requiring more in-depth research

If you are unable to access your information by email, you can send us your
request by post at the following address:

77305 Fontainebleau
France

In the case of a written request, it must be signed and accompanied by a copy of
your identity document bearing your signature. The request must specify the

you within one month following receipt of the request, two months in the event
of a request requiring more in-depth research or in the event that INSEAD
receives an excessive number of requests.

9.2- CORRECTION RIGHT

You can ask INSEAD to correct and/or update your personal data.

You simply need to send an email to 5555-itservicedesk@insead.edu stating your

Also do not forget to indicate the reason for contacting us in the body of your
email, i.e. correction of inaccurate information and the information to modify,
with proof of the correct information where relevant and if you have it.

You can also exercise this right by sending us a letter to the following
address: Legal Department, INSEAD, Boulevard de Constance, 77305 Fontainebleau,
France. Your written request must be signed and accompanied by a copy of your
identity document bearing your signature. The request must specify the address

9.3- DELETION RIGHT

   it was collected or otherwise processed

   personal data by INSEAD

   infringes your privacy and causes you excessive harm

 * Your personal data is not processed in accordance with the GDPR and French
   law

However, it may be that we are unable to accede to your request to be forgotten.
It should be remembered that this right is not absolute. We need to weigh it
against other important rights and values, such as freedom of expression,
compliance with a legal obligation applicable to us or important public interest
reasons.

9.4- RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN

Our Site may contain personal data concerning you. If you no longer wish for it
to be displayed, you can ask us to delete it in one of the following situations:

 * Your personal data is no longer necessary in respect of the reasons for which
   it was collected or otherwise processed

   stipulated in European Union law or national law applicable to INSEAD

We are also obliged to take reasonable measures to inform other companies (data
controllers) that process the personal data for which you have asked for all
links and copies to be deleted.

To have information about you on our website deleted, simply send an email
to 5555-itservicedesk@insead.edu stating your full name and with the subject
line “right to be forgotten: personal data”, attaching a copy of your identity
document showing your signature. Also do not forget to indicate the reason for

(URL) of the page in question.

You can also exercise this right by sending us a letter to the following
address: Legal Department, INSEAD, Boulevard de Constance, 77305 Fontainebleau,
France. Your written request must be signed and accompanied by a photocopy of
your identity document bearing your signature. The request must specify the
address to which the response should be sent. A response will then be sent to
you within one month following receipt of the request, two months in the event
of a request requiring more in-depth research or in the event that INSEAD
receives an excessive number of requests.

However, it may be that we are unable to accede to your request to be forgotten.
It should be remembered that this right is not absolute. We need to weigh it
against other important rights and values, such as freedom of expression,
compliance with a legal obligation applicable to us or important public interest
reasons.

9.5- RIGHT TO RESTRICT PROCESSING

You have the right to ask us to restrict your data, i.e. marking your personal
data held by us (e.g. b y temporarily moving your data to another processing
system or locking your data to make it inaccessible), in order to restrict its
future use.

You can exercise this right when:

 * the accuracy of the data in question is disputed
 * Your personal data is not processed in accordance with the GDPR and French
   law
 * the data is no longer necessary to fulfil the initial purposes but cannot yet
   be deleted for legal reasons (e.g. official recording, the exercise or
   defence of your rights in legal proceedings)
 * a decision concerning your processing objection is pending

In the case of a restriction on processing, your personal data shall no longer
be subject to any processing without your prior agreement, with the exception of
its retention (storage).

Your personal data may still be processed for the purpose of official recording,
the exercise or defence of your rights in legal proceedings, or to protect the
rights of another natural person or legal entity, or else on important grounds
of public interest in the European Union or Member State.

In the case of a restriction on processing of some of your personal data, we
will keep you informed of the date when the measure will be lifted.

You simply need to send an email to 5555-itservicedesk@insead.edu stating your
full name and with the subject line “restriction right: personal data”, along
with a copy of your identity document.

Also do not forget to indicate the reason for contacting us in the body of your
email.

You can also exercise this right by sending us a letter to the following
address: Legal Department, INSEAD, Boulevard de Constance, 77305 Fontainebleau,
France. Your written request must be signed and accompanied by a copy of your
identity document. The request must specify the address to which the response
should be sent. A response will then be sent to you within one month following
receipt of the request, two months in the event of a request requiring more
in-depth research or in the event that INSEAD receives an excessive number of
requests.

9.6- OBJECTION RIGHT

You have the right to object to us processing your personal data if, for your
own reasons, you consider that one of the forms of processing infringes your
privacy and causes you excessive harm. You cannot prevent us from processing
your data:

 * if its processing is required to conclude or perform your contract. For
   example, your data must be processed to validate your registration with
   INSEAD
 * if its processing is required by law or a regulation. That is particularly
   the case when you move to another address
 * if its processing is required to officially record, exercise or defend rights
   in legal proceedings

You can object to the use of your personal data for the purposes of marketing
communications and particularly advertising. You can also object to profiling if
it is linked to marketing communications (e.g. when we send you personalised
content).

You simply need to send an email to 5555-itservicedesk@insead.edu with the
subject line “objection right: personal data”, attaching a copy of your identity
document showing your signature.

It is important to include the reasons for your objection request.

You can also exercise this right by sending us a letter to the following
address: Legal Department, INSEAD, Boulevard de Constance, 77305 Fontainebleau,
France. Your written request must be signed and accompanied by a photocopy of
your identity document bearing your signature. The request must specify the
address to which the response should be sent.

INSEAD has two months to respond to your objection request. If your request is
imprecise or does not include all the information enabling us to fulfil your
request, we will contact you to ask for further information within that time.

However, it may be that we are able to accede to your request. In that case, we
will of course provide you with as clear a response as possible.

Furthermore, any emails and newsletters which may be sent to you will contain a
link you can click on to stop receiving promotional information from us.

Specifically in relation to your right to object to marketing communications, we
remind you that our marketing partners are responsible for their use of your
personal data and taking into account your rights, including to no longer
receive offers from them.

9.7- RIGHT TO DIGITAL DEATH

You have the option to send us instructions relating to the retention, deletion
and communication of your personal data after your death. Those instructions may
also be recorded with a “certified digital trusted third party”. Those
instructions, a sort of “digital will”, may appoint a person responsible for
their execution or, failing, that your heirs will be appointed.

In the absence of any instructions, your heirs may contact us to:

 * Access the processing of personal data in order to “organise and settle the
   deceased’s estate”
 * Receive communication of the “digital goods” or “personal data containing
   family memories, transferable to the heirs”
 * Close your personal account on the Site and object to the continued
   processing of your personal data

In any case, you have the option of informing us, at any time, that you do not
want your personal data to be communicated to a third party after your death.

9.8- PORTABILITY RIGHT

This right gives you the possibility of more easily managing your personal data
yourself, specifically:

 * retrieving your personal data processed by us, for your personal use, and
   storing it on a device or in a private cloud for example
 * transferring your personal data from us to another company, either by you, or
   directly by us, subject to that direct transfer being “technically possible”

That right covers both your actively and knowingly declared data, such as your
data supplied to create your online account (e.g. email address, username, age)
and the information collected by INSEAD.

Conversely, personal data derived, calculated or inferred from data you have
supplied, e.g. the results of a medical examination, is excluded from the
portability right since it has been created by INSEAD.

You simply need to send an email to 5555-itservicedesk@insead.edu stating your
full name and with the subject line “portability right: personal data”,
attaching a copy of your identity document showing your signature. Do not forget
to indicate in your email the files concerned and the type of request (data
retrieval and/or transfer to a new service provider).

You can also exercise this right by sending us a letter to the following
address: Legal Department, INSEAD, Boulevard de Constance, 77305 Fontainebleau,
France. Your written request must be signed and accompanied by a photocopy of
your identity document bearing your signature. The request must specify the
address to which the response should be sent. A response will then be sent to
you within one month following receipt of the request, two months in the event
of a request requiring more in-depth research or in the event that INSEAD
receives an excessive number of requests.

You should be aware, however, that INSEAD is entitled to refuse your portability
request. In fact, this right only applies to personal data based on your consent
or performance of a contract concluded with us (for more details of personal
data covered by the portability right: click on the Purposes and Grounds
section). Similarly, this right may not infringe on third-party rights and
freedoms, whose data may be contained in the data transmitted following a
portability request.

 


10- IS YOUR PERSONAL DATA SENT ABROAD?

10.1- DATA TRANSFER WITHIN EUROPE

Personal data benefits from the same level of protection within the European
Economic Area.

We process your personal data on IT servers located in the EEA.

10.2- DATA TRANSFER OUTSIDE EUROPE

INSEAD transfers, processes and stores your information on IT servers located in
a number of countries outside Europe as set out in section 6 above.

You should be aware that protection of privacy and rules allowing authorities to
access your personal data in those countries are not necessarily equivalent to
those in Europe.

In order to ensure standards are adhered to in terms of data and privacy
protection, we impose technical and legal guarantees on all our partners.

 


11- DATA SECURITY

INSEAD takes all useful and appropriate physical, logical, technical,
functional, administrative and organisational precautions and measures to
guarantee the security of your personal data, with regard to the state of the
art, implementation costs and the nature, extent, context and purposes of the
processing, as well as the risks, whose degree of likelihood and severity vary,
to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, to preserve data security and
confidentiality and guarantee a level of security appropriate to the risks, and
particularly to prevent the data being distorted, damaged or accessed by
unauthorised third parties.

Due to the difficulties inherent in exercising an activity on the internet and
the risks, of which you are aware, resulting from the electronic transmission of
data, INSEAD may not be bound by a performance obligation.

In the event that difficulties occur, INSEAD shall do its utmost to circumvent
the risks and shall take all adequate measures, in accordance with its legal and
regulatory obligations (corrective actions, informing the national authority
responsible for personal data protection and, where relevant, data subjects,
etc.).

In the event that all or part of the personal data processing is subcontracted,
INSEAD contractually imposes security guarantees on its subcontractors,
particularly in terms of confidentiality in respect of the personal data to
which they may have access (appropriate technical and organisational measures to
protect that data).

   reside, or

This Personal Data Protection Charter may be amended at any time, particularly
to take account of any changes to the law or regulations or changes to our
services.
