We do not rent, sell or disclose any personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. Your personal data is only shared with third parties under the following circumstances.
We share some of your personal data with partners who provide us with certain specialized services or who cooperate with us on projects.

These service providers (« processors » within the meaning of the data protection laws and regulations) are subject to an obligation of confidentiality and have access to your personal data only to the extent necessary to provide their service and are therefore not authorised to use your data for other purposes. These include our anti-fraud service providers and some of our IT service providers (hosting, audience analysis, etc.).
