Respect of our Confidentiality Charter
Discretion as a major issue
For reasons of confidentiality, we do not display the work carried out for our customers, nor photos, logos, names, texts, or suggestions.
Confidentiality is a major, ethical issue for our company.
Its main objective is to protect personal information concerning the identity of all companies using our services on their personal issues or their support.
Our confidentiality charter helps protect the interests of a legal person while respecting its wishes.
This concerns all professionals calling on our services, in our daily relationships. The concept then covers the legal concepts of trade secret, professional secrecy, professional discretion, duty of reserve … This concept extends to all employees and partners having access to individual information concerning all companies and business partners having a link direct and indirect with us.
The employee must integrate it as a professional duty; words and confessions of the person. If the field of confidentiality is of a particularly wide scope, it is characterized by the transversality of the aspects to be considered.
The dimensions of profesionnal secrecy
Professional secrecy is characterized by knowledge hidden from others which has two dimensions: that of shared knowledge in the sense of communication and transmission of information, and that of protected knowledge which presupposes a relationship of trust.
But protecting privacy is not just a business for professionals. It is indeed the responsibility of the company and its legal representative, the director, to make every effort to ensure that confidentiality is protected.
Adjustment of rules for the circulation of files.
Respect for confidentiality, a corollary of respect for the dignity of others.
Many professionals believe that, beyond the information delivered, the emphasis must be on communication and introduce, in this sense, the concept of ethics while respecting confidentiality. To wonder about ethics is to wonder about the meaning of the act, about the challenges of this act since man is always confronted with an alternative.
Respect for confidentiality is a professional obligation that is at once criminal, ethical, statutory and contractual. It mainly results in professional secrecy which, in different forms, is imposed on all personnel.
The notion of confidentiality
The notion of confidentiality is recognized in many texts: declarations of human rights, codes of ethics, charters …
Professional secrecy is a fundamental requirement. It concerns all persons who have to know, in the professional context, information of a secret nature within the meaning defined by article 226-13 of the new Criminal Code.
Responsibilities and sanctions Article 226-13 of the new penal code covers all depositaries of secrecy. The text now specifies that, even outside the exercise of their functions, professionals are required to respect the confidentiality of information of which they may be aware.
Revelation, whether written or verbal, assumes in its criminal sense that a fact covered by secrecy has been revealed, intentionally, even without the will to harm.
Sometimes the mere confirmation of a diagnosis, of a confidence is worth revelation.
