Politique de confidentialité

The purpose of this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy“) is to inform persons whose personal data is processed by Early Metrics SAS, a simplified joint-stock company, located at 86-90 Rue Notre Dame de Nazareth, 75003 Paris, registered with the RCS under the number 804 356 525 (“Early Metrics” or  We“), of the conditions under which this data processing is performed, the data involved, the reasons for this processing, the ways in which We use the data and the rights of the subjects whose data is being processed.
The Privacy Policy is accessible from our website (the “Website“) and is also made available to you during all exchanges with Early Metrics, upon the conclusion of a contract and upon request.
It may be modified to take into account, in particular, the evolution of the data processing operations implemented and the applicable legislation. Any significant change will be brought to your attention by email, for example during exchanges with our services, or via pop-ups upon your visit to the Website.

1. Traitement de vos données personnelles

Early Metrics is responsible for Data processing as a professional entity offering ratings, analyses and studies related to companies such as startups, in particular to achieve or obtain investments or to conclude commercial partnerships with our clients. In this capacity, Early Metrics is subject to the obligations imposed by the regulations in force in France and across the European Union regarding the protection of personal data, in particular Regulation (EU) 2016/679, enacted on 27 April 2016, concerning the protection of individuals with regards to the processing of personal data and the free movement of such data in addition to any applicable national legislation (the “Regulation“).
The Privacy Policy applies to Early Metrics’: clients; suppliers and service providers; prospects, whether they are potential clients subscribing to the services offered by Early Metrics, prospects requesting a quote, or startups, whether startups that Early Metrics identifies via public and/or
internet databases (“Sourced Startup“), those that make themselves known to Early Metrics by completing an online survey or application form created on behalf of a client (“Indexed Startup” or “ScaleX Startup”), or those that are specifically identified by a customer for rating (“Rated Startup“) which Early Metrics rates; and users browsing the Website (the “People” or “You“). The Privacy Policy covers personal data, including any information that could identify People directly,such asfirst, last names and contact details, or indirectly, such as an IP address, social security number or a registration number (the “Data”).
Data processing refers to any operation that is performed or considered directly or indirectly with the Data, such as collection, registration, organisation, storage, modification, consultation, use, transmission or any other form of provision, reconciliation or interconnection, limitation, or
destruction, etc.
Data processing always has a purpose, i.e. a reason justifying the Data processing. For example, Early Metrics asking You to enter your email on the Website is a form of Data processing of which the goal is the response to a request for a quote or for information.
Only Data necessary to the processing purposes for which it is collected is processed.
Furthermore, Data processing must be founded on a legal basis,such as the performance of a contract between You and Early Metrics, the legitimate interest of Early Metrics, the performance of a legal obligation or your consent.
Moreover, Data whose collection is mandatory is identified as such (i.e. by an asterisk in the forms).

The Data collected is accessible within Early Metrics by the services charged with managing the different processes concerned.
Access to the Data is strictly reserved to those persons who need to have access in the scope of their assignment within Early Metrics and who are linked to Early Metrics by a commitment of condifentiality.
The tables above specify for each purpose the persons and services of Early Metrics likely to have access to the Data concerned by the processing in question.
In addition, certain subsidiaries of the Early Metrics group located within the European Union or in countries considered to ensure an adequate level of Data protection may also have access to the Data in within the scope of an intra-group Data transfer agreement.

For certain purposes identified above, Early Metrics makes use of service providers or subcontractors (e.g. those in charge of monitoring the premises or charged with providing administrative services like archiving) such as IT service providers (e.g. web hosting service providers), solutions in the form of software-as-a-service (SaaS) which need to access the Data to carry out the assignment entrusted to them by Early Metrics (e.g. AirTable for startup documents), including certain providers outside France
(see point 8 below).
In this case, Early Metrics imposes strong obligations on these contracting parties regarding the processing, the condifentiality and the security of the Data to which these providers have access.
Early Metrics may also be required to disclose the Data to third parties in certain specific cases:

  • If Early Metrics plans to sell any business or assets (including by selling the business which carries out that activity or owns those assets), the Data may be disclosed to potential acquirers as part of an audit, including their advisors;
  • If all or part of Early Metrics’ assets are acquired by a third party, the Data will be one of the transferred assets and will be therefore processed by the acquirer who will act as the new Data controller and its data policy will govern the Data processing;
  • If Early Metrics must communicate or give access to the Data to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation, a court decision or a request from an administrative authority;
  • If the law or You yourself authorises this transfer by Early Metrics.

In any eventuality, Early Metrics does not sell the Data to third parties other than our clients.
The Data of the companies which are the object of a service, notably rating, will be shared with the client(s) who ordered the service or who would be interested in receiving the report, as well as the clients linked to Early Metrics by the contracted subscription to the ratings. The transmission of your Data is based on the fulfilment of the contract between You and Early Metrics in the scope of this assignment.

6. Durée de stockage des données

The Data (in particular, the startup rating report) is kept for a period of five years from the completion of the service, whether as a contract with a client or as the completion of a service (notably startup rating) for the completion of a service by a supplier. However:

  • The Data of prospects, Sourced Startups or Indexed Startups is deleted within three years of its collection or the last contact with You;
  • In pre-litigation matters, the Data is stored until the conclusion of a settlement agreement or, if not, until the presciption of the corresponding legal action;
  • In matters of judicial litigation, the Data is stored until the decision has the force definitive of res judicata.

In addition, anonymous data and data relating to Startups may be kept indefinitely as long as it does not contain any Data.
