Personal information will be stored by us in accordance with our applicable data retention requirements and corporate policies.
The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) provides certain rights to residents of California. This section of the Privacy Notice applies if you are a natural person who is a resident of California (“California Consumer”) and you have provided your personal information to us. If you are not a California Consumer (or a resident of California), this does not apply to you and you should not rely on it. Without being discriminated against for exercising these rights, California residents have the right to request that we disclose what personal information we collect from you, to delete that information, and to opt-out of the sale of your personal information, subject to certain restrictions. You also have the right to designate an agent to exercise these rights on your behalf. This section describes how to exercise those rights and our process for handling those requests. (To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may charge a reasonable fee to comply with your request.)
California residents have the right to request that we disclose what categories of your personal information that we collect, use, or sell. You may also request the specific pieces of personal information that we have collected from you. However, we may withhold some personal information where the risk to you or our business is too great to disclose the information.
You may also request that we delete any personal information that we collected from you, such as if you have been a customer of ours. (Note that this is different from your right to “opt out” of us selling your personal information, which is described below; also note that we do not generally collect personal information directly from consumers.) However, we may retain personal information for certain important purposes, such as (a) to protect our business, systems, and users from fraudulent activity, (b) to address technical issues that impair existing functionality (such as de-bugging purposes), (c) as necessary for us, or others, to exercise their free speech or other rights, (d) to comply with law enforcement requests pursuant to lawful process, (e) for scientific or historical research, (f) for our own internal purposes reasonably related to your relationship with us, or to comply with legal obligations. Additionally, we need certain types of information so that we can provide our services to you. If you ask us to delete it, you may no longer be able to access or use our services.
California residents may exercise their California privacy rights by sending an email to privacyofficer@publicisgroupe.com.
For security purposes (and as required under California law), we will verify your identity – in part by requesting certain information from you -- when you request to exercise your California privacy rights. For instance, if you request categories or specific pieces of personal information we have received about you, you may need to confirm your possession of an identifier (such as an email address) or to provide a piece of identification that confirms you are the person you claim to be.
Once we have verified your identity, we will respond to your request as appropriate:
If we are unable to complete your requests fully for any of the reasons above, we will provide you additional information about the reasons that we could not comply with your request.
We will not deny, charge different prices for, or provide a different level of quality of goods or services if you choose to exercise these rights.
We do not sell any personal information as the term “sell” is used in the CCPA.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors under 16 years of age in California unless we have received legal consent to do so. If we learn that personal information from such California residents has been collected, we will take reasonable steps to remove their information from our database (or to obtain legally required consent).
You may also designate an agent to make requests to exercise your rights under CCPA as described above. We will take steps both to verify the identity of the person seeking to exercise their rights as listed above, and to verify that your agent has been authorized to make a request on your behalf through providing us with a signed written authorization or a copy of a power of attorney.
We use a variety of methods, such as firewalls, intrusion detection software and manual security procedures, to secure your data against loss or damage and to help protect the accuracy and security of personal information and to prevent unauthorized access or improper use. If you think that the Website or any personal information is not secure or that there has been unauthorized access to the Website or your personal information, please contact privacyofficer@publicisgroupe.com immediately.
Please note that we treat personal information as strictly confidential.
Your personal information is transferred to the US which is not considered to have the same level of data protection as in the EU. However we ensure all data transfers comply with applicable legal requirements (for example, under intercompany agreements with appropriate contractual protections or standard contractual clauses).

We utilize social media plug-ins to allow you to easily share content from our website and, in doing so, your personal information will be disclosed to these social media platforms.

We have no control over how social media platforms use your personal information. We encourage you to read the privacy notices on the various social media platforms you use.
