    2. WHAT IS OUR POLICY ON DATA RELATING TO MINORS ?

      Ceva attaches great importance to the protection of the personal data of minors.  

      Our websites are not intended for minors under the age of 18 and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them. Minors under the age of 18 must have the permission of their parents or guardians before providing personal data.  

      If we become aware that personal data of minors under the age of 18 has been collected without prior parental consent, we will immediately destroy such data.   

      3. HOW LONG IS THE DATA RETAINED AND WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE FOR DELETION ?

        Ceva only keeps your personal data for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes for which it was collected, subject to the legal possibilities of archiving, the obligation to keep certain data and/or anonymisation.  

        These retention periods are defined according to the purposes of the processing and take into account, in particular, the applicable legal provisions imposing a specific retention period. For further details regarding the retention of your data, please see the table set out in section 2 above. 

        4. WHO DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA WITH ?

          As your personal data is confidential, only persons duly authorised by Ceva by virtue of their functions may access your personal data, without prejudice to their possible transmission to the extent required by the applicable regulations.  The internal recipients of personal data are, in particular, the departments in charge of invoice management, marketing, customer relations, complaints, prospecting and the IT department.  

          Ceva takes all appropriate organisational and technical measures to preserve the security, integrity and confidentiality of the data.  

          We do not sell personal data to third parties for marketing purposes.  

          Your personal data may be passed on to companies belonging to the Ceva Group. 

          Our authorised service providers may also process your personal data as strictly necessary for the performance of the services we entrust to them: these include, in particular, service providers in charge of customer relationship management, logistics, management of loyalty programmes, sending e-mails for marketing purposes, data storage, etc.  

          In certain circumstances, we may transfer your personal data outside the EEA or UK to countries which do not benefit from data protection laws similar to those in the UK and the EU. In this case, we will secure the transfer and processing with an appropriate legal framework to ensure a high level of data protection, regardless of where your information is processed. For example, we might put in place a data transfer agreement, incorporating the approved standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data from the EEA or UK (as applicable).We may also share data with government agencies and public bodies in accordance with legal requirements. 

          And in the event that any or all of our business or assets are sold, we may share your personal data with the prospective purchaser of those assets. 

          5. HOW IS THE SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA MAINTAINED ?

            Ceva takes care to protect and secure your personal data, to ensure its confidentiality and to prevent it from being distorted, damaged, destroyed or disclosed to unauthorized third parties.  

            When disclosure of data to third parties is necessary and authorized, Ceva ensures that these third parties offer the same level of protection for the data concerned as that offered by Ceva, by requiring contractual guarantees that the data can be processed exclusively for the authorized purposes with all the confidentiality and security required.  

            Ceva implements technical and organisational measures to ensure that personal data is stored in the most secure manner possible and for the period of time necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it is to be used, in accordance with applicable law.  

            Although Ceva takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no transmission or storage technology is completely foolproof.  

            In accordance with the applicable law, in the event of a proven breach of personal data that may result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of the persons concerned, Ceva undertakes to communicate this breach to the competent supervisory authority and, where required by the said regulation, to the persons concerned.  

            Without prejudice to the foregoing, it is your responsibility to exercise caution to prevent unauthorised access to your personal data and to your terminals (computer, smartphone, tablet, etc.), in particular by choosing a strong password. 


            6. WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS ?

              Subject to the conditions laid down by the regulations in force, you have the following rights with regard to your personal data: 

              • Right to information about the processing of your personal data 

              Ceva strives to provide you with concise, transparent, understandable and easily accessible information, in clear and simple terms, about the conditions under which your personal data is processed. 

              • Right of access, rectification and deletion (or "right to be forgotten") of your personal data 

              The right of access allows you to obtain from Ceva confirmation as to whether or not your personal data is being processed by us and the conditions of such processing, as well as to receive a copy of the data (for any additional copies, Ceva is entitled to charge a reasonable fee based on the administrative costs incurred). Where this request is made electronically, the information will be provided in a commonly used electronic form, unless you request otherwise.  

              You also have the right to obtain, as soon as possible, the rectification of your personal data that are inaccurate or incomplete.  

              Finally, subject to the exceptions provided for by applicable law (e.g. retention necessary to comply with a legal obligation), you have the right to request the erasure of your personal data as soon as possible, where any of the following grounds apply: 

              • your personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed;  
              • you wish to withdraw your consent on which the processing of your personal data was based, if any, and there is no other basis for such processing; 
              • you consider and can establish that your personal data has been unlawfully processed; 
              • your personal data must be deleted in accordance with a legal obligation.  
              • Right to limit the processing of your personal data 

              The applicable regulations provide that this right may be invoked in certain cases, in particular the following: 

              • Where you challenge the accuracy of your personal data, such data processing may be restricted for the time necessary to verify its accuracy; 
              • Where you consider and can establish that the processing of personal data is unlawful but you object to the erasure of the personal data, in this situation you may instead demand the restriction of the processing; 
              • when Ceva no longer needs your personal data but it is still necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;  
              • when you object to the processing being based on the legitimate interest of the controller, during the verification as to whether the legitimate grounds pursued by the controller prevail over your own. 

               

              • Right to object, including to canvassing 

              You may object at any time to the processing of your personal data, including profiling, on grounds relating to your particular situation. Your data will no longer be processed unless there are compelling legitimate grounds for such processing which override your interests and rights and freedoms or grounds relating to the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.   

              Where the processing is for canvassing purposes, you may object at any time. In this case, you will no longer receive personalised offers. 

              • Right to portability of personal data 

              Where processing is based on your consent or a contract, this right to portability allows you to receive the personal data you have provided to Ceva in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and to transmit this personal data to another controller without Ceva's interference.  

              Where technically possible, you may request that this personal data be directly transferred to another controller by Ceva. 

              • Right to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data 

              Where Ceva processes your personal data on the basis of your consent, this consent may be withdrawn at any time.  

              However, in accordance with applicable law, the withdrawal of your consent is only valid for the future and does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out prior to this withdrawal. 

              • Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority 

              If, despite Ceva's efforts to safeguard your personal data, you believe that your rights have not been respected, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.  

              The supervisory authority in the United Kingdom is the Information Commissioner's Office. You can contact this authority at:  

              Information Commissioner's Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF
