Personal data policy

In accordance with the French Data Protection Act of 6 January 1978 (as amended) and the General Data Protection Regulation of 27 April 2016 (“GDPR”), ALGEBRA AVOCATS is the sole recipient of the information and personal data transmitted when using this Site.

The information collected will not be disclosed to third parties, except in the event of a proven breach of legal or regulatory provisions, in which case it may be disclosed upon the express and reasoned request of the judicial authorities.

The email address and any other personal data voluntarily included by the User to identify themselves in an email sent to the Firm, as well as the IP (Internet Protocol) addresses relating to their Internet connection, are the only personal data that may be collected through the Site and processed by ALGEBRA AVOCATS.

Personal data is collected mainly to manage applications for associate positions and internships. It may not subsequently be used in a way incompatible with these purposes.

Each User has the right to access, rectify, port, erase, restrict and object to the processing of their personal data, and to give instructions regarding their data after their death.

To exercise these rights, the User may send a signed letter for the attention of Elie SALHAB to: ALGEBRA AVOCATS, 50 bis avenue de la Grande Armée, 75017 Paris, France, or an email to contact@algebra-avocats.com.

Any request must be accompanied by a signed copy of an identity document, which will be used strictly to process the request and deleted once processing is complete.

Providing personal data is optional, as the absence of such data does not prevent a reply to a request for information or service.

Depending on the services requested, and in order to provide them, the User may be asked to provide mandatory and/or optional information. This data will be collected for specific purposes and for a period that will be made known to the persons concerned at that time.
