    • Right of rectification
    • Right of deletion (right to be forgotten)
    • Right to restricted processing

    What data security measures do we implement?

    We use technical measures to protect our site and systems against loss, damage, access, changes or distribution of your data by unauthorised persons and do so in line with current techniques. Transfer of data between our site and your computer is encrypted.

    HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is an online communication protocol which protects the integrity and confidentiality of data during the transfer of information between your computer and our website. Data sent using HTTPS is secure thanks to the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol, which offers three protection keys:

    • Encryption consists of encoding data exchanged to protect this from illegal interception. This means that when you browse on our website, nobody can supervise your activities on the various pages or steal your information.
    • Data integrity: information cannot be modified, corrupted during transfer, whether deliberately or otherwise, without detection.
    • Authentication proves that you are communicating with our website. This method offers protection against attacks by interceptors and reassures you as to the website consulted.

    The USI reserves the right to amend this data protection policy at any time, taking due account of the provisions in force in terms of data protection. In the event of modification, you will be informed when logging on to our website and will be entitled to make any objection by using our contact form.
