Version: 20260917 \u00b7 Matvision SRL. This English version is a translation of the French version, which prevails in the event of any discrepancy.<\/p>\n\n\n

1. Purpose and scope<\/h2>\n\n\n

This policy describes how Matvision SRL (\u201cMatvision\u201d, \u201cwe\u201d) collects, uses and protects personal data in the course of its activities. It applies:<\/p>\n\n\n

to the contact persons of our customers, prospects, suppliers and partners (directors, employees, representatives) in the context of the business relationship, including feasibility studies, sales, leasing, provision of equipment and related services;<\/p>\n\n\n

to visitors of the matvision.eu website and to persons who contact us by email or through the website.<\/p>\n\n\n

It constitutes the Privacy Policy referred to in Article 13 of our general terms and conditions (version 20260917) as well as the privacy policy referred to in our Data Use and Access Policy (Data Act, the \u201cData Act Policy\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n

It does not cover the processing of data relating to our staff or to job applicants, which is covered by a separate notice.<\/p>\n\n\n
