YOUR RIGHTS
Entrusting us with your data does not mean that you lose control of it, quite the contrary! A little explanation.
You have several rights. Some are applicable to all processing of data concerning you, others depend on the type of processing implemented and, more precisely, the legal basis on which it is based (contract, legal obligation, consent, legitimate interest, etc.).
Below you will find a brief description of these rights as well as the terms of their implementation.
To find out precisely the rights associated with the processing concerning you, refer to the “your rights” section in the description of the processing concerned.

To find out precisely the rights associated with the processing concerning you, refer to the “your rights” section in the description of the processing concerned.
The right of access:
This right allows you to ask us questions about the nature of the processing concerning you (type of data, origin of collection, etc.). It also allows you to ask us for a copy of all the information about you. This right applies regardless of the legal basis of the processing concerning you.

The right to object
It’s the right to say “no!” , the right not to appear in data processing or to no longer appear there. This right applies when the processing is based on the “legitimate interest” of Decathlon, provided that this interest is not “compelling”.

Right to erasure
It's the right to be forgotten... and that's normal. Decathlon has no reason to keep your data beyond what is necessary. All data concerning you is therefore automatically deleted at the end of the retention period announced when your data was collected. When your data is subject to processing based on your consent or on the legitimate (non-overriding) interest of Decathlon, you can obtain early deletion of your data. How? All you need to do is let us know that you want to withdraw your consent or assert your right to object to the processing. Don't forget, by logging into your Decathlon account, you can delete it (as well as the data associated with it) yourself: Click here.

Right to portability:
This right allows you to request the obtaining of data concerning you, as long as they are subject to processing based on your consent or a contractual relationship. What is the difference with the right of access? We are obliged to transmit the data to you in a format that is technically usable by you or by an entity other than Decathlon.

Right to limitation:
This right is a right complementary to some of the other rights set out above. In fact it allows you to “freeze” your data after a request for rectification, for example. If you have any doubts about the legality of any of our processing, this right would allow you to ask our teams to no longer process your data, but without erasing them. Finally, if you wish to have your rights established, exercised or defended in court, you could also request, through this right, to have your personal data “frozen”. For any questions do not hesitate to contact us !
