Your rights and choices regarding your Personal Data
Please use this link if you want to make use of any of your below-mentioned legal rights.
Where you are a resident of the EU
Subject to certain exceptions and the jurisdiction in which you live, if you are a resident of the EU, the GDPR provides you with specific rights regarding your Personal Data. This subsection describes your rights and explains how to exercise those rights regarding Personal Data that we hold about you. These rights include:
1.1 The right of access:
You can access all Personal Data we hold about you, know the origin of this Personal Data and obtain a copy in an understandable format.
You may also use your right to access your Personal Data to control the exactness of the data and have them rectified or deleted. You have no justification to provide to exercise your right to access;
1.2 The right to rectification:
In order to avoid that inaccurate or incomplete Personal Data relating to you is process or shared, you can ask us to rectify them;
1.3 The right to erasure:
You may request the erasure or deletion of the Personal Data we hold on you. This is not an absolute right since we may have to keep your Personal Data for legal or legitimate reasons. You may, for example, exercise your right to deletion in the following cases:
(a) if you have withdrawn your consent to the processing (see below);
(b) if you legitimately objected to the processing of your data (see below);
(c) when data is not or is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was initially collected or processed;
(d) the data is processed unlawfully (e.g., publishing hacked data);
1.4 The right to object to the processing of your Personal Data:
We process your Personal Data based on our legitimate interest (to determine to which processing this applies, please refer to the legitimate interest chart in this Privacy Notice), you may at any time object to the processing of your Personal Data for reasons relating to your personal situation. We may nevertheless, on a case-by-case basis, reject such a request by pointing out the legitimate and imperious reasons justifying the processing of this data which prevail on your interests, rights and freedoms, or when this data is necessary to establish, exercise or defend a right before a Court.
1.5 The right to restrict processing:
The right to limit the processing completes your other rights. This right means that the data processing relating to you and that we are performing is limited, so that we may keep this data, but we cannot use it or process it in any other manner. This right applies in specific circumstances, i.e.:
(a) if you challenge the exactness of your Personal Data. The processing is then limited for a period of time so that the agency may verify the exactness of the Personal Data;
(b) if the processing is unlawful and you object to the erasure of your Personal Data and request instead that its use be limited;
(c) if we do not need the Personal Data for the purposes mentioned above anymore, but you still need it to establish, exercise or defend rights before a Court; and
(d) in the cases where you objected to the processing which is based on the legitimate interests of the agency, you may ask to limit the processing for the time necessary for us to verify if we can accept your objection request (i.e., the time necessary to verify whether the legitimate reasons of the agency prevail over yours).
1.6 Right to object to data processing for direct marketing purposes
You may unsubscribe or object, at any time and without any justification, to the reception of direct marketing communications. Simply either (i) click on the link in the footer of the communications you receive from us; or (ii) use the hyperlink above; or (iii) send us an email at the email address set out in the “Further Information” section below with the word unsubscribe in the subject field of the email.
1.7 The right to data portability:

(b) This right only applies to Personal Data you provided us with, directly or indirectly, and which was processed through automated means, if this processing is based on your consent or the performance of a contract. Please check the list of our Personal Data processing activities’ legal grounds to know whether our processing is based on the performance of a contract or on consent.
1.8 The right to withdraw your consent to the processing of your Personal Data at any time:
(a) You may read this Privacy Notice in order to identify the purposes for which the processing of your Personal Data is based on your consent.
(b) If you are unsatisfied with the way we process your Personal Data or if your request has been rejected, you may also lodge a formal complaint with your local competent data protection authority.
(c) Personal Data will be stored in accordance with our applicable data retention requirements and corporate policies. The retention period for Personal Data varies depending on the type of Personal Data and the purposes of processing it.
(d) We will respond without undue delay and in any event within one month from the data we receive your request. This timeframe can be extended by two months to take the complexity of the request, or the number of requests received into account. In this case, we will inform you within one month from receiving your request, specifying the reasons for extending the response timeframe.
Where you are a US resident
Residents of certain US states, such as California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, and Utah, have specific rights regarding their Personal Data.

When we receive and verify your request to access your Personal Data, we will make best efforts to fulfill your request unless an exception applies. We will not disclose your government identification numbers, financial account numbers, health insurance or medical identification numbers, account passwords, security questions and answer, or unique biometric data; however, to the extent we have this information, we will inform you that we have collected this information.

2.3 Right to correct your Personal Data
If you believe we hold inaccurate personal information about you, you may request that we correct that information.

US residents may exercise their applicable privacy rights by sending an email to privacyofficer@publicisgroupe.com, submitting your request here, or by contacting us at 1-833-983-0087.
For security purposes (and as required under US state laws), we will verify your identity—in part by requesting certain information from you—when you make a request to access, correct, or delete, your Personal Data.

You may also designate an agent to make requests to exercise your rights under certain US state laws.

Nevada law (NRS 603A.340) requires each business to establish a designated request address where Nevada consumers may submit requests directing the business not to sell certain kinds of Personal Data that the business has collected or will collect about the consumer. A sale under Nevada law is the exchange of Personal Data for monetary consideration by the business to a third party for the third party to license or sell the Personal Data to other third parties. If you are a Nevada consumer and wish to submit a request relating to our compliance with Nevada law, please contact us at privacyofficer@publicisgroupe.com.

Your general rights regarding data collection
4.1 Do Not Track:
Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no industry consensus as to what site and app operators should do with regard to these signals. Accordingly, unless and until the law is interpreted to require us to do so, we do not monitor or take action with respect to “Do Not Track” signals. For more information on “Do Not Track,” visit https://www.allaboutdnt.com.
4.2 Analytics:
We may use our own technology or third-party technology to track and analyze usage information to provide enhanced interactions and more relevant communications, and to track the performance of our advertisements.
For example, we use Google Analytics (“Google Analytics”), a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. You can learn about Google’s privacy practices by going to www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.
Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how our websites are used, including the number of visitors, the websites from which visitors have navigated to our websites, and the pages on our websites to which visitors navigate.

Please note that you cannot opt-out of non-promotional emails, such as those about transactions, servicing, or our ongoing business relations.
Children
The Website is intended for general audiences and is not directed at children.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe we have collected Personal Data in violation of COPPA, contact us at privacyofficer@publicisgroupe.com. We will remove the Personal Data in accordance with COPPA. We do not knowingly “sell,” as that term is defined under the US state privacy laws, like CCPA or VCDPA, the Personal Data of minors under 16 years old without legally required affirmative authorization.
Data Security
We use a variety of methods, such as firewalls, intrusion detection software and manual security procedures, designed to secure your data against loss or damage and to help protect the accuracy and security of information and to prevent unauthorized access or improper use. Nevertheless, transmission via the internet is not completely secure and we cannot guarantee the security of information about you. If you think that the Website or any Personal Data is not secure or that there has been unauthorized access to the Website or your Personal Data, please contact privacyofficer@publicisgroupe.com immediately.
Data Transfers
Due to the international nature of our business, your Personal Data may be transferred outside the European Union.
If you are an EU resident, your Personal Data may be transferred to the US or any country which is not considered to have the same level of data protection as in the EU. While in those jurisdictions, your Personal Data may be accessible to regulatory authorities in accordance with the laws of those jurisdictions. However, we ensure all data transfers from the EU comply with applicable legal requirements by executing standard contractual clauses. Should you wish to know more about how your Personal Data is protected or wish to request a copy of the contractual protections please contact privacyofficer@publicisgroupe.com.
