Privacy Policy

LE GROUPE JENACO is committed to ensuring that the privacy of its employees, customers, suppliers, and partners is respected.

  1. Objective

LE GROUPE JENACO is committed to protecting your personal information and being transparent about the information we collect about you.

Our primary objective in publishing this policy is to provide you with a clear explanation of how we collect and process any data we may have obtained in various ways through our relationship.

This policy applies to any processing of personal data carried out by LE GROUPE JENACO and its intention is to inform the user on how LE GROUPE JENACO processes personal data (including details on the type of personal data collected and the purpose for which it was processed) and the user’s rights in relation to their personal data.

2. Identification of processing: How is personal data collected?

In accordance with the current personal data protection regulations, in particular:

  • Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA)
  • Law 25 of the Quebec government relating to the protection of personal information in Quebec
  • Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL)

Data collection is carried out in a variety of ways.

A. The information you give us

When, for example, you fill out the forms on our site (https://legroupejenaco.com/), respond to a survey, submit an application or send us your résumé, send a service request, complete a printed form, send an email, or communicate by telephone, we collect information such as your name, your email address, your postal address, your telephone number, or any other information to meet administrative requirements.

B. Data collected by automated interactions or by technologies

When you visit our site, we may automatically collect various technical data about your equipment and your browsing behaviour. This collection is carried out using cookies and similar technological resources.

C. Third-party sources

From time to time, we obtain information from various sources such as: Data analysis providers such as Google Analytics, advertising networks such as Google AdWords and Facebook, organizations specializing in search information, or search engines such as Google, as well as information about you that is publicly accessible.

3. Personal data collected:  What personal data do we collect?

Any information relating to a natural person capable of identifying them constitutes personal data in the eyes of the law, and must be kept confidential. Data that has been anonymized does not qualify as personal data.

In the course of our activities, we may collect, use, store, and transfer the various types of personal data identified, which we may group together as follows:

  • Identity data. This includes first name, last name, title, username or similar identifier, date of birth, and gender
  • Contact data. This data includes billing address (for administrative purposes), email address, and telephone number(s).
  • Payment data. This includes payment card details (credit or debit) or any other relevant information
  • Technical data. This refers to the Internet Protocol (IP) address, your login data, browser type and version, time zone setting and location, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform, and other technologies on the devices you use to access our site.
  • Usage data. These data reveal information about how you browse our site.
  • Marketing and communications data. These data mainly concern information about your preferences in receiving communications from us and sometimes from our third parties.
  • Data relating to job candidates. This is all data submitted in the course of a job application to LE GROUPE JENACO.

We collect, use, and share any statistical or demographic data that may be useful. This aggregate data comes from your personal information. However, they are not considered personal data because they cannot reveal your identity either directly or indirectly.

No personal data related to race, ethnicity, religious or spiritual beliefs, sexual orientation, health information, genetics and biometric data, as well as your comments or political opinions are collected.

As a general rule, when personal data is required to use a service or access certain content, its provision is not mandatory, except where it is specifically indicated that the data is essential for the provision of the service. If this is the case, users can choose not to register and/or not to contract the services.

The user declares and guarantees that all data they provide is true and accurate and agrees to keep this data up to date. Changes may be sent to the Data Protection Officer or to the address indicated in Paragraph 16 below.

The user acknowledges that the data required by LE GROUPE JENACO are necessary, adequate, and not excessive to achieve the purposes set out in Paragraph 4 below, which would be impossible to achieve if these data were not provided.

Any false or inaccurate statement that results from the information and data provided, as well as any damage that this information may cause, will be the responsibility of the user.

4. Purpose: What are the personal data we collect used for?

The personal data requested from the user will be used for the following purposes:

  • In the case of service contracts offered on the site or otherwise, to create and maintain a business relationship and to carry out activities and provide the services of the organization LE GROUPE JENACO (including, but not limited to, management, administration, provision, and improvement of services).
  • Send newsletters, business communications, promotions, and/or advertisements from LE GROUPE JENACO, either on specified occasions or from time to time. Consequently, the email address that the user provides when filling out the form on the site may be used to send information and updates on the request for services, as well as news about LE GROUPE JENACO (either on specified occasions or from time to time), updates, information regarding related products or services, among other things. This use is based on our legitimate interest in promoting our products and services.
  • For example, to conduct a survey on our customer service, or to organize a contest.
  • Personalize the user experience to increase our ability to meet user needs.
  • Improve LE GROUPE JENACO’s site and service offering, based on the LE GROUPE JENACO’s legitimate interest to constantly improve its products and services.
  • Process transactions and comply with the legal obligations to which LE GROUPE JENACO is subject, such as tax obligations. The data submitted for processing will not be used for any purpose other than those mentioned above and for which they were collected. Notwithstanding the above, the recorded data may be used, in addition to the purposes for which they were expressly collected, for statistical, incident management, or market research purposes. However, in the event that personal data is used for purposes other than those initially specified when collecting these data, a compatibility analysis will be carried out by LE GROUPE JENACO in accordance with applicable regulations. Processing will only be authorized if the original purpose is compatible with the new purpose or authorized in accordance with an independent legal basis. In this event, the user will be informed of the changes in purpose or the legal justification for processing their data. We would like to remind users that they can block business communications (unsubscribe) and stop receiving emails from LE GROUPE JENACO, by reliably informing LE GROUPE JENACO, which will then unsubscribe the user as soon as possible after receiving such communication. To do this, the user can send an email to the address indicated in Section 17, mail a letter to the address indicated in Section 17 below, or directly follow the unsubscribe instructions found at the end of each of LE GROUPE JENACO’s business communication.

5. How we use your information?

We will use the information we collect about you as authorized under the law. Generally, this use is for the following purposes:

  • Management of customer and supplier orders
  • Information for administrative purposes
  • Technical support and service

If we want to use your information for any other purpose, we will ask for your consent and will only use your information when your consent is given and only for the purpose (or purposes) for which you have given your consent, unless we are required to do otherwise by law.

 

6. Consent

By providing personal data to LE GROUPE JENACO, the user fully and unreservedly accepts the processing of these data by LE GROUPE JENACO. The user hereby grants free, express, and informed consent to: LE GROUPE JENACO to use the data collected for the purposes indicated in Section 4 above, as well as their incorporation into LE GROUPE JENACO’s database.

LE GROUPE JENACO will legitimately process the user’s data through:

  • the conclusion of a service contract with LE GROUPE JENACO by the user, in accordance with the conditions made available to the user when completing the service request form (before possible hiring) and that the user (after having read it and agreeing to it) may accept by checking the box provided for this purpose; and
  • the free, informed, and unequivocal consent of the user, given after reviewing this privacy policy wherein LE GROUPE JENACO provides information regarding the processing it will perform with the user’s data, and if the user agrees, by checking the box provided for this purpose in the service request form. Data processing which is not covered by one of the legal bases indicated above will be carried out if LE GROUPE JENACO deems it necessary to protect a legitimate interest, and only if such use does not infringe on the fundamental rights and freedoms of the user.

7. Expiration: How long do we keep data?

Data will be destroyed or archived when it is no longer strictly necessary or relevant for the purposes detailed in Section 4 above, including for legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

Please note that personal data will be retained as long as the business relationship is in force (and as long as the user has not previously requested their deletion) and throughout the period during which obligations, compensation, and/or liabilities may arise in the context of the business relationship or for the services provided.

LE GROUPE JENACO advises that it will retain the information essential to identifying the origin of the data stored for the duration of the client relationship with LE GROUPE JENACO and/or the revocation of the user’s consent in accordance with the information contained in Section 4 of this privacy policy and/or the duration required by the applicable law.

Finally, LE GROUPE JENACO will take the following into account when determining the appropriate retention period for personal data: either the quantity, nature, and scope of the personal data deemed critical, the risk of harm resulting from the use or unauthorized disclosure of the personal data, the objectives pursued with this data collection, and the presence of different means to achieve them and, of course, compliance with the legal requirements in force.

8. Confidentiality / Assignment / International transfer: Do we disclose data to third parties?

LE GROUPE JENACO will keep the personal data collected private and confidential and will not use it for purposes other than those established in Section 4 above. LE GROUPE JENACO requires its employees and third parties that provide services that access the content of the databases to sign confidentiality and personal data processing agreements (or includes such obligations in the service agreements it signs with such service providers as indicated in the following paragraph).

The user’s personal data collected by LE GROUPE JENACO will not be transferred, sold, exchanged, transmitted, and/or communicated to third parties outside LE GROUPE JENACO without the user’s consent, unless legally required and/or for the purpose of providing services to the user. This does not include certain employees and service providers who enable LE GROUPE JENACO to keep the site operational, to comply with the purposes established in Section 4 above and/or to provide services to the user, who have accepted the obligation to maintain the confidentiality of the data provided and undertake to comply with all applicable regulations regarding the protection of personal data when they are hired. Contracts with service providers stipulate the objective, scope, content, duration, nature and purpose of data processing, the type of personal data, the categories of data owners, and the obligations and responsibilities of the company LE GROUPE JENACO and contractual third parties.

LE GROUPE JENACO does not guarantee absolute privacy when using this site, as it cannot be excluded that unauthorized third parties may become aware of it. The user acknowledges that existing technical security means are not impenetrable and that even when all reasonable security precautions are taken, it is still possible to suffer manipulation, destruction, and/or loss of information. In the event of the detection of a security incident involving a significant risk for the data owner, this will be communicated without delay to the competent supervisory authority, as well as the corrective and palliative measures implemented and/or to be implemented. Furthermore, we will ensure that all third parties who have access to personal data fulfill their duty of confidentiality and security.

LE GROUPE JENACO is not responsible for data lost or deleted by users. In addition, LE GROUPE JENACO accepts no responsibility for potential damage caused by computer viruses.

Finally, users must also take steps to protect their information. LE GROUPE JENACO urges you to take every precaution to protect your personal information when you are on the Internet. At a minimum, you are advised to change your password periodically, using a combination of letters and numbers, and to ensure that you are using a secure browser.

Information about your credit or debit card

If you use your credit or debit card to make a purchase or payment for a service with us, we ensure that this transaction is secure and complies with the rules in force under the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. Furthermore, we do not store any credit or debit card numbers or three or four digit security codes in our systems.

 10. Data owner’s rights and procedures for exercising them: What rights do I have as a data owner?

The user who owns the data may at any time exercise the rights of access, correction, cancellation, opposition, limitation of processing, portability, confidentiality, and deletion of their personal data, in accordance with the provisions of Articles 15 et seq. of the GDPR, the provisions of the PIPEDA and the CASL, as applicable. These rights may be exercised by the user by sending an email to confidentiality@legroupejenaco.com, or by one of the means provided for by the applicable regulations mentioned above. LE GROUPE JENACO may request the data necessary to validate the identity of the data owner.

If the deletion of certain data could cause damage to the rights or legitimate interests of third parties or if there is a legal obligation to retain the data, it will not be deleted.

It is important to note that NO FEES will be charged to access your personal information or to exercise any of your rights. Please note, however, that reasonable fees may be charged if the request is manifestly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. If this is the case, we reserve the right to refuse to comply with any request.

Information we need from you

As part of the process put in place to confirm your identity, guarantee your right of access to your personal information, or to exercise one of your rights, we may need to ask you for specific information. This security measure is essentially intended to avoid disclosing personal information to a person who does not have the right to obtain it. We may also contact you to ask for details related to your request in order to provide a quicker response.

Time frame for responding to requests
