The information provided below intends to provide you all relevant information in relation to the collection and processing of information which may be collected through this website academy.capgemini.nl, (hereinafter, “the website”)

 

Capgemini Services SAS (hereinafter, “we”, “us”, “our” or “Capgemini”) may collect and process personal data relating to you when you visit this website.

 

2. Processing of Your Personal Data

However, in order to access some parts of our websites and/or for you to request specific information or services, we may need to collect personal data from you which we will process for the purposes described hereunder.

 

As part of pre-contractual and/or contractual obligations, we may process your personal data for:

4. Sharing of your Personal Data

 

4.1 With other entities of the group

Capgemini is a global organisation. Whilst we have distinct legal entities (e.g., country subsidiaries) in many parts of the world, our internal processes and infrastructure are international in scope and nature and generally cross country borders. Accordingly, you should be aware that we may share your personal data with other entities of Capgemini and transfer it to countries in the world where we have data centres or otherwise do business, including those located outside the European Union (EU). Such data transfers will be covered by our Binding Corporate Rules (Capgemini BCR) which were approved by European Data Protection Authorities in 2016. As a result of Capgemini BCR wherever your personal data are processed in the Capgemini group, your personal data will benefit from the same level of protection. You can access Capgemini BCR by clicking here.

 

4.2 Third-party suppliers

We also rely on third-party suppliers and partners with which we may share your personal data for the purposes indicated above. Whenever we rely on such third parties, we make sure that they provide an adequate level of protection to the personal data they process on our behalf and when such third parties are located out of the European Union, we make sure that we enter into European Model Clauses as adopted by the European Commission.

 

4.3 Judicial, public and/or governmental authorities

We may also be required - by law, legal process, litigation, and/or requests from public and governmental authorities within or outside your country of residence— to disclose your personal data. We may also disclose your personal data if we determine that for purposes of national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary or appropriate.

 

We may also disclose personal information if we determine in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect our rights and pursue available remedies, enforce our terms and conditions, investigate fraud, or protect our operations or users.

 

5. Business Reorganisations

Like many organisations, Capgemini may reorganise its business operations around the world from time to time, whether by buying new businesses or selling or merging existing businesses. This may involve us disclosing personal data to prospective or actual purchasers of parts of our business, or receiving personal data from potential sellers. It is our practice to seek appropriate confidentiality protection for personal data disclosed in these types of transactions.

 

6. Your rights

In any case, you have the right to access your personal data.

 

You can also request that your personal data be rectified or deleted. You are entitled as well to object to the processing of your personal data or to request restriction thereof. In addition, you have the right to ask for receiving your personal data in a structured and standard format.

 

We drafted a procedure for handling a request to exercise your rights. Click here to read the full procedure.

 

In case of any such request or complaint, please send an email to dpocapgemini.nl@capgemini.com. You can also contact our Data Protection Officer by sending an email to the followingaddress: dpocapgemini.nl@capgemini.com

 

In any case, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority.

 

7. Data security and integrity

Capgemini uses various technological and procedural security measures in order to protect the personal data we collect, use or transfer from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. However, you should be aware that, due to the open and unsecured character of the Internet, Capgemini cannot be responsible for the security of transmissions of the personal data over the Internet.

These cookies allow a website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personal features. For instance, a website may be able to provide you with local information or news by storing in a cookie the region in which you are currently located. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to the text size, font and other parts of the web pages that you can customise. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. These cookies cannot track your browsing activity on other websites. They do not gather any information that could be used for advertising.

Quite often they will be linked to a website functionality provided by the other organisation. We do not have third-party advertising on our website. We use targeting cookies only for our own analytic purposes. We use third parties to gather and provide us with information about our website’s advertising audiences and to deliver targeted advertisements on third-party sites. Havas Media do this for us and you can find more information on their website. Third-party social media websites may log certain information (such as your IP address, browser type, language or access time) if you are logged in to those social media websites as you are navigating through our website.
