Privacy Policy

Last updated on October 11th 2023

iPify is committed to a continuous process of compliance with current French and European regulations, specifically the French Data Protection Law of 6 January 1978, as amended and the General Data Protection Regulation of 27 April 2016 (GDPR).

Our Privacy Policy describes how iPify collects and processes your personal data when browsing our website www.ipify.app or using the iPify platform and services, and how you can exercise your rights regarding this data. Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

What personal data are collected, for what purposes and how long will they be stored?

When contacting us via email, phone or a contact form, iPify collects your title, first name, last name, company name, phone number and email address in order to respond to your queries. Unless you become an iPify user or did not unsubscribe to our newsletters, your personal data will be kept for one (1) year.

When you apply for a job on our website, via email, or via an employment agency, iPify collects your first name, last name, email address and phone number, and any information you choose to share with us in your cover letter and resume. iPify will not ask you to provide information that is not necessary for the recruitment process. In particular, iPify will never collect any information about your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, trade union membership or sexual orientation. If iPify concludes an employment contract with you, the collected data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal requirements. If no employment contract is concluded with you, iPify may keep the collected data you provided for up to (3) years in order to contact you again for any new job proposition that may come up, unless you ask us not to do so.

How are your personal data protected?

iPify realizes how important and sensitive your personal data is, and takes a great number of measures to ensure that this information is securely processed, stored and preserved from data loss and unauthorized access. Our technical, administrative and organizational security measures are described in detail in our Security Policy.

This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. iPify shall no longer process the personal data in the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. If iPify processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to processing of your personal data for such marketing.

In addition, you have the right, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object to processing of your personal data by iPify for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
