Data controller
The data controller is KAPPONTOS (SARL), 51 rue Polonceau, 75018 Paris, France.
Contact: contact@kappontos.fr
Data collected
When you use the contact form, we collect your name, your email address, your company name (optional) and the content of your message.
No data is collected without your knowledge and the site uses no advertising trackers.
Private area and contract management
As part of its business, KAPPONTOS also processes, through the private area of the site (reserved to the operator), professional data relating to its clients and their representatives: name, business email address and role of the contact persons designated by the client. This data is used exclusively for the administrative and contractual management of assignments.
When a contractual document is signed online, the following is recorded for evidence and traceability purposes: the email address of each signatory, the date and time of signature and a technical timestamp. The signed document is then sent by email to both signatories.
This processing is based on the performance of the contract concluded with the client and on the legitimate interest of KAPPONTOS in administering its assignments.
Pharos platform (pharos.kappontos.fr)
KAPPONTOS publishes Pharos, an offshore construction tracking platform available at pharos.kappontos.fr, open by invitation to the stakeholders of the projects it covers. For each account holder, the following is processed: first name, last name, business email address, password (stored in encrypted form), per-project access roles and, where applicable, a usage counter for AI-assisted features. Actions performed on the platform are logged (timestamp and author's email) for project-data traceability purposes.
The « Request access » form on the sign-in page collects: first name, last name, business email address, company, project concerned and an optional message. This information is used solely to handle the access request; the IP address is used transiently to limit abuse (anti-spam) and is never stored.
Weekly project reports may contain site photographs provided by project stakeholders; they are kept with the reports of the project concerned.
Pharos accounts are deleted when access is no longer required (end of assignment or at the client's request). This processing is based on the performance of the contract concluded with the client and on the legitimate interest of KAPPONTOS in operating the platform.
Purpose
This data is used solely to respond to your request and to manage any subsequent business relationship.
Legal basis
Processing is based on your consent (voluntary submission of the form) and on the legitimate interest of KAPPONTOS in responding to enquiries addressed to it.
Recipients and processors
Your data is processed by Kappontos and hosted through technical providers acting as processors: Supabase (database hosting), Brevo (sending notification, invitation and signature emails), Vercel (hosting of the website and of the Pharos platform) and Anthropic (data-entry assistance and progress-report analysis features, with no retention of data for training purposes). The artificial-intelligence assistance features are enabled only where this has been expressly agreed in advance with the client.
Your data is never sold or transferred to third parties for commercial purposes.
Retention period
Messages received through the form are kept for as long as necessary to handle your request, then archived or deleted within a maximum of three years from the last contact.
Contract-management and online-signature data is kept for the duration of the contractual relationship, then for the statutory limitation periods applicable to contractual and accounting documents (up to ten years).
Pharos access requests are kept while they are being handled, then deleted at the latest one year after processing; Pharos account data and activity logs are kept for the duration of the project concerned.
Your rights
In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict and object to the processing of your data. To exercise these rights, write to contact@kappontos.fr.
You may also lodge a complaint with the French data protection authority, the CNIL (www.cnil.fr).
Cookies
The public website does not use tracking or advertising cookies. A single technical cookie strictly necessary for authentication is set when you log in to the private area or to Pharos; it is shared between kappontos.fr and its subdomains (pharos.kappontos.fr) to maintain your session.
