Data protection

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) entered into force on 25 May 2018. It increases the security and confidentiality of the data of persons in EU countries2 and imposes new obligations on all organisations which process the personal data of citizens of the European Union.

Data protection is vital, and Dexia complies with all national and European provisions relating to the protection of personal data.

Dexia is required to collect your personal data (hereinafter referred to as “Data”) as a data controller, and to that end, Dexia ensures the utmost transparency with regard to the processing and use of your Data, the retention period and the rights you have.

Collection and use of personnel data

Your Data is collected directly from you. Personal data is used mainly for the internal management of the business relationship. They may also be used to keep the persons concerned informed of events, actions or publications,  within the framework of their professional activity. In certain specific cases, data are collected from sources accessible to the public such as professional websites/social network pages. Dexia undertakes to ensure that the data collected and processed are limited to what is strictly necessary. Dexia collects different categories of personal data, in particular: 

  • identifying data (e.g. name, IP address),
  • contact details (e.g. postal and e-mail address, telephone number).

Dexia never processes Data relating to your racial or ethnic origins, political opinions, religion, philosophical convictions or trade union membership, genetic data, sex life or sexual orientation.

Your data are mainly processed:

  • to fulfil our legal and regulatory obligations,
  • to execute a contract or to answer your questions,
  • to serve our legitimate interests,
  • for recruitment purposes.

The recipients of your Data are exclusively Dexia staff members (or, as the case may be, its subcontractors). Such processing may involve the communication or exchange of data among certain entities of the Dexia Group and their subcontractors, including 

  • Cognizant Horizon Financial Services, a French company
  • Arkéa Banking Service, a French company.

This may involve processing outside the European Union (including but not limited to the United States and India). Within the context of a transfer to a country outside the European Union which does not offer adequate protection, rules ensuring the protection and security of personal data will be put in place prior to transfers, in accordance with legal and regulatory provisions.

In the event that you apply for a job, additional personal data may be collected: 

  • identification data (e.g. name, ID card and passport numbers, nationality, place and date of birth, photo, IP address),
  • contact details (e.g. postal and e-mail address, telephone number),
  • family situation (e.g. civil status, number of children),
  • tax data (e.g. country of residence)
  • training and employment information (e.g. education level, job, name of employer).

Your personal data will not be disclosed to commercial or advertising companies.

When your personal data are processed by subcontractors (service providers), Dexia will ensure that such subcontractors respect the same requirements as those described in this policy.

Security of processing 

Dexia takes the appropriate physical, technical and organisational measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of personal data, in particular with a view to protecting them against loss, accidental destruction, alteration and unauthorized access.

Period of data retention

The data collected is only retained for the time necessary for completing the formalities described above, within prescription limits, and in compliance with the legal and regulatory provisions in force.

Your rights

In accordance with the GDPR, you may:

  • access all of your Data,
  • correct or update your Data,
  • request the deletion of your Data or object to the manner in which it is processed on legitimate grounds,
  • request the portability of your Data, for processing relying on your consent or on the execution of a contract,
  • request a limitation of the processing of your Data, when the accuracy of such Data is contested or if you consider that such processing is unlawful.
  • withdraw your consent at any time (only for processing relying  on your consent)  
  • lodge a complaint directly with a supervisory authority, i.e. that of the European Union country in which you have your habitual residence, your place of work or the place where the alleged breach of the Regulation is alleged to have been committed (the CNIL in France and the APD in Belgium).
