On the other hand, the data collected by ArgoStudios Co in the context of a study on language knowledge (specifically with a view to refining the tests offered to Users) are anonymised and are solely intended for the production of anonymous global statistics.

We ensure that subcontractors handle your data in the same manner we do; that is, in a safe, respectful and responsible way; and we provide adequate contractual guarantees to this effect. ArgoStudios Co therefore requires its subcontractors to comply with data protection legislation and to provide sufficient guarantees regarding the implementation of appropriate technical and organisational measures, so that the use of the data meets the requirements of applicable data protection legislation and guarantees the protection of your rights.

It is necessary to take into account that it is not always possible to delete all personal data requested, for example when its processing is essential for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal rights, or because it is required by the judicial authorities to retain such Data. You will receive further information concerning this subject, should it be necessary, in the response to your request.

To the extent necessary, you will also be entitled to the portability of your Data under the conditions provided by applicable data protection legislation.

TELECOMMUNICATIONS PRIVACY
All transmissions of personal data will be encrypted via “https” pages. This mainly concerns all the administrator tools (server management, database access, server access). All communication between servers is encrypted using TLS technology, and access to the server is via encrypted SSH and VPN connections.This guarantees a high level of data security and confidentiality. In addition, all user and supervisor passwords are encrypted (SHA256) in our database and cannot be read externally or internally by ArgoStudios Co .
