These cookies allow us to remember choices and adapt our website to improve the features and content offered. For example, these cookies may be used to remember the user name, chosen language or preferences already stated. They can also be used to remember changes in text size, font, and other parts of customisable pages.
|
Advertising cookies
|
These cookies are used to serve our ads. They are used to limit the number of times users see an ad and to measure the effectiveness of the ad campaign. They remember that users have visited a website and this information can be passed on to other companies, such as advertisers. They also make it possible to deliver more relevant ads that are more relevant to your interests.

In order to improve the online experience and facilitate content sharing, some of the pages on our website or some of our ads contain tools or apps that are linked to external social media service providers, such as Facebook, Twitter or Google+. These providers can set their own cookies on the device using these tools or apps. Disabling these cookies therefore prevents any interaction with social networks. |

6. Data Retention
1. Shelf life
The Boost Society stores your personal data collected as part of the implementation of processing relating to tenancy management. The retention periods established differ depending on the purpose pursued and the stage of the contractual relationship.
- Data that is processed for marketing purposes is retained for three years from the time of last contact with The Boost Society.
- The data collected as part of the assessment of your solvency are kept on an active database for three months.
- The Boost Society also keeps your personal data in an active database for the duration of the contractual relationship, and for five years in interim archiving from the time your accounts are closed.
- The data collected in connection with the termination of the agreement may also be consulted by us if necessary (reduction of the notice period, joint and several liability).
2. Security
Your personal data is stored in accordance with the highest security and encryption standards.
In accordance with the GDPR, The Boost Society undertakes to keep the data collected from users only for the time necessary to accomplish the purposes of processing. When the processing is complete, the data collected will be destroyed or archived.
7. Data transfer
The processing carried out by The Boost Society is not intended to entail the transfer of personal data outside the European Union.
However, if it were to be transferred, The Boost Society undertakes to comply with all its obligations in this regard, including in particular:
- Ensure that the transfer is to a third country subject to an adequacy decision;
- Ensure that the transfer takes place subject to appropriate safeguards (including in particular by means of standard data protection clauses adopted by the Commission or by a supervisory authority and approved by the Commission).
8. Sensitive Data
No sensitive data, i.e. any data that reveals racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious and philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic, biometric, health or sex life or sexual orientation of a natural person, is processed by The Boost Society as part of the booking request.
9. Rights of data subjects
The beneficiaries of the rights conferred by GDPR are the persons concerned by the processing of their personal data.
The Boost Society informs you that you have the following rights:
- Right to be informed: this is the right, for the person concerned by the processing of his/her personal data, to be informed of all the rights s/he has under GDPR.
- Right of access: the persons concerned by the processing of their personal data must be able to access it.

- Right to erasure: the person concerned by the processing has the right to request the erasure of personal data concerning him or her.
- Right to restriction of processing: this is the possibility for the data subject to request the blocking of his/her personal data, implying that The Boost Society is merely storing it.
- Right to data portability: this is the possibility of recovering certain data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, thereby enabling the person requesting it to store or transmit it easily to another IT system.
- Right to object: this is the right for the data subject to object to processing relating to his/her personal data being implemented
- Right not to be subject to an automated individual decision: this is the assumption that an algorithm identifies the reciprocal correlations and relationships between the personal data collected in order to assess the personal aspects of the data subject or to predict his or her behaviour.
