DATA PROTECTION NOTICE


THIS NOTICE WAS REVIEWED AND UPDATED  JUNE  8TH  2023


 

Preliminary section: Main amendments

As a trusted companion, the protection of your personal data is important to the
BNP Paribas Group.
We have enhanced our Privacy Notice by being more transparent on the following
information on:

 * Collection of connected vehicle data.


INTRODUCTION


We take the protection of your personal data very seriously; accordingly, the
BNP Paribas Group has adopted strong principles in its Personal Data Protection
Charter available at BNP Paribas - Personal Data Privacy Charter .
Arval ("We"), as a controller, is responsible for collecting and processing your
personal data in relation to its activities.
Our business is to provide an extensive offer of vehicles leasing and mobility
solutions to our customers (individuals, entrepreneurs, small and medium-sized
enterprises and large companies).
As a member of an integrated banking-insurance Group in collaboration with the
various entities of the BNP Paribas Group, we provide our customers with a
complete range of banking, insurance and leasing products and services.
The purpose of this Privacy Notice is to explain how we process your personal
data and how you can control and manage them.


1. ARE YOU SUBJECT TO THIS NOTICE?


This Privacy Notice applies to you if you are ("You"):

 * one of our customers or in a contractual relationship with us;
 * a member of our customer family. Indeed, our customers may occasionally share
   with us information about their family when it is necessary to provide them
   with a product or service or to get to know them better;
 * a person interested in our products or services when you provide us with your
   personal data (in an agency, on our websites and applications, during events
   or sponsorship operations) so that we can contact you.
 * an employee of our corporate customers.

When you provide us with personal data related to other people, please make sure
that you inform them about the disclosure of their personal data and invite them
to read this Privacy Notice. We will ensure that we will do the same whenever
possible (e.g., when we have the person's contact details).


2. HOW CAN YOU CONTROL THE PROCESSING ACTIVITIES WE DO ON YOUR PERSONAL DATA?


You have rights which allow you to exercise real control over your personal data
and how we process them.

If you wish to exercise the rights listed below, please submit a request by
mailing a letter to the following address Arval UK Data Protection Correspondent
at Arval UK Limited, Whitehill House, Windmill Hill Business Park, Swindon, SN5
6PE or on our websites with a scan/copy of your identity card where required.

If you have any questions relating to our use of your personal data under this
Privacy Notice, please contact our Data Protection Correspondent at the
following address Arval UK Limited, Whitehill House, Windmill Hill Business
Park, Swindon, SN5 6PE, e-mail dataprotection@arval.co.uk.


2.1 YOU CAN REQUEST ACCESS TO YOUR PERSONAL DATA


If you wish to have access to your personal data, we will provide you with a
copy of the personal data you requested as well as information relating to their
processing.

Your right of access may be limited in the cases foreseen by laws and
regulations. This is the case with the regulation relating to anti-money
laundering and countering the financing of terrorism, which prohibits us from
giving you direct access to your personal data processed for this purpose. In
this case, you must exercise your right of access with Information
Commissioner's Office which will request the data from us.


2.2 YOU CAN ASK FOR THE CORRECTION OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA


Where you consider that your personal data are inaccurate or incomplete, you can
request that such personal data be modified or completed accordingly. In some
cases, supporting documentation may be required.


2.3 YOU CAN REQUEST THE DELETION OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA


If you wish, you may request the deletion of your personal data, to the extent
permitted by law.


2.4 YOU CAN OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA BASED ON LEGITIMATE
INTERESTS


If you do not agree with a processing activity based on a legitimate interest,
you can object to it, on grounds relating to your particular situation, by
informing us precisely of the processing activity involved and the reasons for
the objection. We will cease processing your personal data unless there are
compelling legitimate grounds for doing so or it is necessary for the
establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.


2.5 YOU CAN OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR COMMERCIAL
PROSPECTING PURPOSES


You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data
for commercial prospecting purposes, including profiling, insofar as it is
linked to such prospecting.


2.6 YOU CAN SUSPEND THE USE OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA


If you question the accuracy of the personal data we use or object to the
processing of your personal data, we will verify or review your request. You may
request that we suspend the use of your personal data while we review your
request.


2.7 YOU HAVE RIGHTS AGAINST AN AUTOMATED DECISION


As a matter of principle, you have the right not to be subject to a decision
based solely on automated processing based on profiling or otherwise that has a
legal effect or significantly affects you. However, we may automate such a
decision if it is necessary for the entering into or performance of a contract
with us, authorised by regulation or if you have given your consent.

In any event, you have the right to challenge the decision, express your views
and request the intervention of a competent person to review the decision.


2.8 YOU CAN WITHDRAW YOUR CONSENT


If you have given your consent to the processing of your personal data, you can
withdraw this consent at any time.


2.9 YOU CAN REQUEST THE PORTABILITY OF PART OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA


You may request a copy of the personal data that you have provided to us in a
structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. Where technically
feasible, you may request that we transmit this copy to a third party.


2.10 HOW TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH INFORMATION COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE


In addition to the rights mentioned above, you may lodge a complaint with the
competent supervisory authority, which is usually the one in your place of
residence, e.g., the ICO (Information Commissioner's Office) in UK.

6. WHO DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA WITH AND WHY?


 1. With BNP Paribas Group's entities

As a member of the BNP Paribas Group, we work closely with the Group's other
companies worldwide.

Your personal data may therefore be shared between BNP Paribas Group entities,
where necessary, to:

 * comply with our various legal and regulatory obligations described above;
 * fulfil our legitimate interests which are:

 * to manage, prevent, detect fraud;
   * conduct statistical studies and develop predictive and descriptive models
     for business, security, compliance, risk management and anti-fraud

     entities

Your personal data may also be shared between Arval Group companies to conduct
statistical studies and develop predictive and descriptive models for business,
security, compliance, risk management and anti-fraud purposes.

In this context, we and such other Arval Group companies may act as joint
controllers by using a joint tool, through which there is shared access to and
mutual use of the personal data of customers and drivers.

Requests from data subjects regarding data subject rights may be submitted to
either of the joint controllers. The joint controllers inform each other about
such requests and support each other in order to address them.

The processing is based on the joint controllers' legitimate interest of
improving their products and services by conducting such statistical studies.

 1. With recipients outside the BNP Paribas Group and processors

In order to fulfil some of the purposes described in this Privacy Notice, we
may, where necessary, share your personal data with:

   logistics, printing services, telecommunication, debt collection, advisory
   and distribution and marketing).

   insurance companies, payment system operators, issuers or payment card
   intermediaries, mutual guarantee companies or financial guarantee

7. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA


In case of international transfers originating from the United Kingdom to
European Economic Area (EEA) and to a non-EEA country, the transfer of your
personal data may take place. Where the UK has recognised a non-EEA country as
providing an adequate level of data protection, your personal data may be
transferred on this basis.

For transfers to non-EEA countries where the level of protection has not been
recognized as adequate by the UK we will either rely on an exception applicable
to the specific situation (e.g. if the transfer is necessary to perform our

one of the following appropriate safeguards to ensure the protection of your
personal data:

 * Standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission;
 * Contractual clauses authorised by the ICO;
 * Binding corporate rules;
 * An approved code of conduct;
 * Certification under an approved certification scheme.

To obtain a copy of these safeguards or details on where they are available, you
can send a written request as set out in Section 2 above.

applicable laws and regulations or another period with regard to our operational
requirements, such as proper account maintenance, facilitating customer

APPENDIX 1



PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA TO COMBAT MONEY LAUNDERING AND THE FINANCING OF
TERRORISM


We are part of a banking Group that must adopt and maintain a robust anti-money
laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) programme for all
its entities managed at central level, an anti-corruption program, as well as a
mechanism to ensure compliance with international Sanctions (i.e., any economic
or trade sanctions, including associated laws, regulations, restrictive
measures, embargoes, and asset freezing measures that are enacted, administered,
imposed, or enforced by the French Republic, the European Union, the U.S.
Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, and any competent
authority in territories where BNP Paribas Group is established).
In this context, we act as joint controllers together with BNP Paribas SA, the
parent company of the BNP Paribas Group (the term “we” used in this appendix
therefore also covers BNP Paribas SA). 
To comply with AML/CFT obligations and with international Sanctions, we carry
out the processing operations listed hereinafter to comply with our legal
obligations:
-    A Know Your Customer (KYC) program reasonably designed to identify, verify
and update the identity of our customers, including where applicable, their
respective beneficial owners and proxy holders;
-    Enhanced due diligence for high-risk clients, Politically Exposed Persons
or “PEPs” (PEPs are persons defined by the regulations who, due to their
function or position (political, jurisdictional or administrative), are more
exposed to these risks), and for situations of increased risk;
-    Written policies, procedures and controls reasonably designed to ensure
that the Bank does not establish or maintain relationships with shell banks;
-    A policy, based on the internal assessment of risks and of the economic
situation, to generally not process or otherwise engage, regardless of the
currency, in activity or business:
o    for, on behalf of, or for the benefit of any individual, entity or
organisation subject to Sanctions by the French Republic, the European Union,
the United States, the United Nations, or, in certain cases, other local
sanctions in territories where the Group operates; 
o    involving directly or indirectly sanctioned territories, including
Crimea/Sevastopol, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, or Syria;
o    involving financial institutions or territories which could be connected to
or controlled by terrorist organisations, recognised as such by the relevant
authorities in France, the European Union, the U.S. or the United Nations.
-    Customer database screening and transaction filtering reasonably designed
to ensure compliance with applicable laws;
-    Systems and processes designed to detect and report suspicious activity to
the relevant regulatory authorities;
-    A compliance program reasonably designed to prevent and detect bribery,
corruption and unlawful influence pursuant to the French “Sapin II” Law, the U.S
FCPA, and the UK Bribery Act.
In this context, we make use of: 
o    services provided by external providers that maintain updated lists of PEPs
such as Dow Jones Factiva (provided by Dow Jones & Company, Inc.) and the
World-Check service (provided by REFINITIV, REFINITIV US LLC and London Bank of
Exchanges);
o    public information available in the press on facts related to money
laundering, the financing of terrorism or corruption; 
o    knowledge of a risky behaviour or situation (existence of a suspicious
transaction report or equivalent) that can be identified at the BNP Paribas
Group level.
We carry out these checks when you enter into a relationship with us, but also
throughout the relationship we have with you, both on yourself and on the
transactions you carry out. At the end of the relationship and if you have been
the subject of an alert, this information will be stored in order to identify
you and to adapt our controls if you enter into a new relationship with a BNP
Paribas Group entity, or in the context of a transaction to which you are a
party.  
In order to comply with our legal obligations, we exchange information collected
for AML/CFT, anti-corruption or international Sanctions purposes between BNP
Paribas Group entities. When your data are exchanged with countries outside the
European Economic Area that do not provide an adequate level of protection, the
transfers are governed by the European Commission’s standard contractual
clauses. When additional data are collected and exchanged in order to comply
with the regulations of non-EU countries, this processing is necessary for our
legitimate interest, which is to enable the BNP Paribas Group and its entities
to comply with their legal obligations and to avoid local penalties.

AUTOMATED DECISIONS INCLUDING PROFILING


 AUTOMATED DECISIONS
 


SOME OF OUR PERSONAL DATA PROCESSING IS FULLY AUTOMATED AND LEADS TO A DECISION
ABOUT YOU WITHOUT HUMAN INTERVENTION, FOR EXAMPLE AUTOMATIC DECISION TO GRANT
FINANCING PRODUCTS TO CUSTOMERS (INCLUDING INDIVIDUALS AND COMPANIES).
IN ORDER TO MAKE THIS DECISION IN AN AUTOMATED WAY, WE BASE OURSELVES: 
•    ON THE DATA ENTERED (I.E. THE PURPOSE OF THE PRODUCT/SERVICE,
IDENTIFICATION INFORMATION, ETC.);
•    ON THE DATA AVAILABLE TO US IN THE CONTEXT OF OUR EXISTING RELATIONSHIP;
•    ON PUBLICLY AVAILABLE INFORMATION AS WELL AS INFORMATION THAT OTHER
AGENCIES ARE REQUIRED TO CONSULT. 
WE MAKE SURE THAT THE DATA WE USE IS AS UP TO DATE AS POSSIBLE IN ORDER FOR OUR
DECISION MODELS TO BE AS UP TO DATE AS POSSIBLE AND WE ADAPT THE MODELS TO THE
CUSTOMER'S PROFILE AND REVIEW THEM REGULARLY. 


PROFILING


AS PART OF THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA, WE USE VARIOUS PROFILING
TECHNIQUES TO ASSIST US WITH RUNNING OUR BUSINESS. BY “PROFILING” WE MEAN THE
AUTOMATED ANALYSIS OF PERSONAL DATA ABOUT A CUSTOMER TO EVALUATE CERTAIN THINGS
ABOUT THEM – BASICALLY DRAWING CONCLUSIONS ABOUT THE CUSTOMER BASED ON A
STATISTICAL MODEL. WE MAY USE THESE TECHNIQUES IN THE COURSE OF EVALUATING
APPLICATIONS FOR CARDS AND/OR LOANS FOR AFFORDABILITY AND SUITABILITY,
UNDERTAKING CREDIT LIMIT INCREASE ELIGIBILITY CHECKS, TO MANAGE YOUR ACCOUNT,
AND FOR MARKETING AND TARGETED ADVERTISING PURPOSES. WE MAY ALSO AUTOMATICALLY
DECIDE THAT YOU POSE A FRAUD OR MONEY LAUNDERING RISK OR IF OUR PROCESSING
REVEALS YOUR BEHAVIOUR TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THAT OF KNOWN FRAUDSTERS OR MONEY
LAUNDERERS; OR IS INCONSISTENT WITH YOUR PREVIOUS SUBMISSIONS; OR YOU APPEAR TO
HAVE DELIBERATELY HIDDEN YOUR TRUE IDENTITY.
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHALLENGE THE DECISION/PROFILING, EXPRESS YOUR VIEWS
AND/OR REQUEST THE INTERVENTION OF A COMPETENT PERSON TO REVIEW THE
DECISION/PROFILING.
