What Personal Data is processed by Perpignan Tourist Office?

The Tourist Office collects the data required to provide the services it offers.

In the event that optional data is requested, the operational managers (of the department requesting the data) will clearly inform you which Personal Data is necessary to provide the service and which is optional.

Personal Data is collected directly from you and indirectly, for the use of the services offered by the Tourist Office and is only used for the purposes that are or will be brought to your attention.

Data such as name/first name/telephone/email/city may be passed on to our partner tour guides as part of the sale of guided tours, and will be systematically destroyed by our guide partner after the tour has been completed.

Your data such as name/first name/telephone/email/address/postal code/city may be passed on to our partners solely in connection with the booking of tourist services (shows, leisure activities, excursions, events) produced by these same service providers, who undertake to comply with the applicable legislation on RGPD.

 

What are the foundations of the legitimacy of our treatments?

The Office de Tourisme de Perpignan relies on the following legitimate bases in order to be able to process Personal Data:

This is the legal basis for processing customer Personal Data collected for the purpose of, or in connection with, fulfilling a contract (online purchase of a tourist service).

If the user does not provide this data, possibly to the online payment service provider, it will not be possible to carry out the arrangements relating to the tourist, leisure or cultural service sold by the Tourist Office.

Withdrawal of consent for processing may be made at any time, subject to regulatory provisions, by contacting the DPO (see below).

The processing of your Personal Data may be based on legitimate interest in the event that certain processing does not fall within the scope of its reception and information missions, such as :

Processing linked to the communication of information on events/entertainments/concerts/tours similar to those ordered by customers; the legitimate interest pursued is the promotion of its "entertainments" to its customers.

Reminder of the basic definitions under the RGPD

The processing of personal data can be any operation or set of operations involving this type of data. It may involve collecting, recording, storing, adapting, etc. Simple consultation or even deletion is data processing.

The data controller is the person, public authority, department or organization that determines the purposes and means of data processing. So, by default, it's the head of the company, the head of the local authority or the president of the association. The drafting of delegations of authority will be one of the key issues.

The data subject is the person to whom the data belongs, an identifiable natural person.

To be able to justify the compliance of processing operations, the new Regulation introduces a radically different logic: accountability.

accountability = from now on, the data controller will have to create the elements needed to verify that he is complying with his obligations.

We're moving away from a logic where control is carried out in the form of a survey, and moving towards a logic of self-control.

At all times, you need to be able to present documentation, produced in-house, by yourself and with maximum formality.

Accountability therefore means documenting and keeping up to date information that can be used at any time to justify compliance with the obligations set out in the Regulation.

Privacy by Design

This can be translated into privacy protection right from the design stage.

In the context of the RGPD, it's about the protection of privacy, in the French sense of the term; as protected by the European Convention on Human Rights*.

Privacy, which includes personal data, must therefore be protected right from the design stage.

Privacy by default

In French, it's best to avoid a literal translation and instead understand "default security" for personal data processing.

For each collection, the aim is to systematically ensure the highest possible level of security in the protection of personal data processing.

Minimization

This means that only personal data that is adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary should be used for processing.

They should only be processed if they are relevant to the purpose for which they are processed: if you want to wish a list of people a happy birthday, you don't need to know their weight!

Only information that is strictly necessary should be collected, handled with care, the number of people or organizations with access to it should be limited, and it should only be processed or stored for the time strictly necessary for the purpose of the processing operation.

Anonymization

This involves removing any identifying character from the data.

All identifiers are deleted or modified, making it impossible to re-identify people.

Pseudonymization

This involves replacing an identifier with a pseudonym. This technique allows re-identification.
