TO WHOM DO WE DISCLOSE YOUR PERSONAL DATA?
Your personal data will not be transmitted to third parties unless they are contractually linked to Rimailho Avocats and act at the request or as a subcontractor of Rimailho Avocats. Their access is limited to the data they need to perform their contractual task. Rimailho Avocats always requires its subcontractors to implement the necessary organizational and technical protection measures for personal data, as well as to guarantee their strict confidentiality.
IS YOUR DATA TRANSFERRED, HOW AND WHERE?
As a general rule, we store your personal data within the European Union. However, to the extent that, for example, some of our service providers are located in countries outside the European Union (“Third Countries”), we transfer some of your personal data to Third Countries. This may particularly be the case for Third Countries for which the European Commission has not issued an “adequate protection” decision. In such a case, we ensure that this transfer is carried out in compliance with applicable regulations and guarantees a sufficient level of protection of privacy and fundamental rights of individuals.
In this context, Personal Data transfers are governed by a data transfer agreement based on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES
6.1 What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small file that websites place on your browser or computer’s hard drive during your first visit.
The cookie contains a unique code that allows your browser to be recognized during your visit to the website (“session cookie”) or during future repeated visits (“persistent cookie”). Cookies can be placed by the server of the website you visit or by partners with whom this website collaborates. A website’s server can only read the cookies it has placed itself; it does not have access to any other information on your computer or mobile device. Cookies are stored on your computer or mobile device in your browser’s directory. The content of a cookie generally consists of the name of the server that placed the cookie, an expiration date, and a unique encrypted code.
6.2 WHAT ARE COOKIES USED FOR?
Thanks to a cookie, our Website can recognize you while preserving your anonymity. The website learns your preferences and automatically adapts to your wishes. However, this information is in no way linked to your name or identity.
Cookies can also be used to make the content of a website or the advertising present on that site more targeted to the visitor.
6.3 WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES ARE USED?
Performance Cookies
We automatically collect certain information about your computer hardware and software. This information may include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, internet service provider (ISP), files viewed on our Site (e.g., HTML pages, images, etc.), operating system, clickstream data, access times, and referring website addresses.
This information is used by Rimailho Avocats to maintain the quality of its services and to obtain general statistics regarding website usage. For these purposes, we associate this automatically collected data with personal information such as name, email address, and phone number.
Commercial Cookies
Our Site uses cookies which, depending on the pages you visit, keep track of products or services that may be of interest to you. Through these cookies and the Google advertising network (Google AdWords, Google Analytics, the Google Display Network, and DoubleClick) and Meta (Facebook, Instagram), we are able to present you with advertisements for targeted products and services on other websites that are part of these advertising networks. This technique is called “retargeting.” These cookies do not contain any personal data.
Web Beacons
We use software technology called web beacons (also known as clear gifs or web bugs), which helps us better manage the Website by informing us what content is most effective. Web beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the user’s computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on web pages or in emails. We use web beacons in our HTML-based emails to identify which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to measure the effectiveness of certain communications and, more generally, our marketing campaigns. We associate the information collected by web beacons placed in emails with our clients’ Personal Information. If you do not wish to receive these emails, you can withdraw your consent at any time, and we will stop sending you emails.
6.4 HOW TO REFUSE OR DELETE COOKIES?
In your browser settings, you have the option to refuse the installation of cookies. You can at any time delete cookies already installed on your computer or mobile device.
