The Personal Data Protection Regulation came into force on May 25, 2018, in the European Union.
The RGPD strengthens the rights of individuals with regard to their personal data and aims to consolidate data protection laws across Europe, regardless of the place of processing. You can rest assured that Layher is committed to complying with the requirements of the RGPD and for all of its services.
The Charter applies to all personal data processed by Layher France acting as data controller in the context of services and products provided to customers.
This general data protection policy summarizes the information provided to data subjects for all purposes, without prejudice to information brought directly to their attention at the time of any collection of personal data concerning them.
It explains what data we may collect about you, how we use this data, with whom we may share it and what measures we take to ensure its confidentiality and security.
All individuals whose data you send to us are informed, in particular through this Charter, of their rights relating to the collection and processing of their data.
Personal data: any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, such as surname, first name, identifier or any other identifying feature.
Processing of personal data: any operation performed on personal data, such as collection, recording, organization, storage, modification, retrieval, consultation, use, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
Data controller: the legal entity which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of data processing.
Subcontractor (for the purposes of this Charter): the legal entity that processes personal data on behalf of the data controller.

For as long as your personal data is held, we take all necessary steps to ensure its confidentiality and security, so as to prevent damage, deletion or access by unauthorized third parties.
In application of the Regulations, you have the right to access, rectify and, if necessary, delete your personal data as collected by Layher, as well as the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data or to withdraw express consent previously given.

You also have the right to object, on legitimate grounds, to your data being processed and, without giving any reason, at any time and free of charge, to your data being used for commercial canvassing purposes, including profiling for the purpose of commercial canvassing.
You are reminded that your right to oppose, limit or delete data may be limited when the personal data collected is strictly necessary for the performance of the contract to which you are a party, or when Layher is required to collect or retain your data in order to comply with a legal obligation.
