Service providers: From time to time, in order to provide you with our Services, we may work with subcontractors who provide website and application development, hosting, maintenance, backup, storage, infrastructure, and analysis or other services for us, which may require them to access or use information about you. If a service provider needs to access information about you to perform services on our behalf, they do so under instruction from us, including abiding by policies and procedures designed to protect your information and a strict confidentiality obligation.

We can provide further information upon request (see ‘Contact us’ below).
Links to Third-Party sites: The Services may include links that direct you to other websites or services whose privacy practices may differ from ours.

Though Yseop considers that it applies sophisticated measures for the protection of the information system environment on which the data we collect are stored, it remains that no transfer of data via the Internet can be fully protected from unlawful access by third parties.
