Depending on the data processing at stake, SANOFI will generally process your Personal Data on either one of the following legal basis:

your prior consent: where you have clearly expressed your approval of SANOFI’s processing of your Personal Data. In practice, this will generally mean that SANOFI will ask you to sign a document, or to fill-in an online “opt-in” form, or to follow any relevant procedure to allow you to be fully informed and then either clearly accept or refuse the data processing envisaged.
a contractual relationship between you and SANOFI: in such case, the processing of your Personal Data is generally necessary to the execution or the performance of the contract; this means that if you do not wish SANOFI to process your Personal Data in that context, SANOFI may or will be obliged to refuse to enter into such contract with you or will not be able to provide the products or services covered in this contract, or to fulfill obligations with you under this contract.
legal obligations applicable to SANOFI’s activities; for instance, SANOFI is required to implement pharmacovigilance procedures to monitor adverse effects of marketed products, which generally involves the collection and retention of Personal Data.
the “legitimate interest” of SANOFI in the sense of applicable data protection law. In such a case, SANOFI shall consider your fundamental rights and interests in determining whether the processing is legitimate and lawful.
the establishment and defences of legal claims.

SANOFI may, on a case-by-case basis, rely on other legal grounds, such as the protection of your vital interests, in accordance with applicable data protection law, or as set forth in the applicable Privacy Notice.

WHERE FROM: Where does the Personal Data come from? SANOFI will always collect Personal Data from trusted sources

SANOFI may collect your Personal Data from different sources:

Data that you communicate to us through various media, both online and offline, whether face-to-face, or via any other means used in communications for any activities, through registrations, applications surveys, or direct and indirect interactions with SANOFI. For example, data you provide to register to scientific events sponsored by SANOFI, to submit an online application, to send us a request for information, etc.
Data that we collect automatically, for instance when following your interactions with our websites, platforms, applications and services through certain technologies, such as cookies.
Data that we collect in accordance with applicable law from public sources available, including data that is published by you in all supports.
Data that we obtain legally from third parties, for example, when we may need to confirm contact or financial information or to verify licensure of healthcare professionals. In such case, we generally receive such Personal Data from third-parties that are authorized to do so in the framework of their own privacy and data protection policies or in accordance with the law. As applicable, we will inform you in the Privacy Notice of the identity of those third-parties and will invite you to refer to their privacy and data protection policies to inquire on the origin of such Personal Data and the condition of their collection.

HOW SECURE: SANOFI will implement security measures to protect your Personal Data

We have implemented a variety of technological and organizational procedures and measures to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of your Personal Data from unauthorized access, use and disclosure. These measures shall take into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons.

For instance, we store your Personal Data on servers that have various types of technical and physical access controls, which may include, for instance, if appropriate, encryption. We may also aggregate, pseudonymize or anonymize Personal Data to ensure that no personally identifiable information is communicated to third parties.

HOW LONG: we will retain your Personal Data for no longer than necessary

SANOFI will retain your Personal Data only for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy.
