In the framework of the services that it proposes, the E.S.F. is required to collect your personal data.

This charter describes how the E.S.F. may use these data, in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation of 25 May 2018).

E.S.F. instructors all work in a freelance capacity.

They form local groupings in their respective E.S.F. ski schools for organising teaching, supervision and activities involving skiing and other snow sports at the resorts.
For ensuring the defence of their interests they are also grouped together into Syndicats Locaux ("Local Trade Unions") which are legal entities. There is one Syndicat Local ("Local Trade Union") per resort.

The designation "Ecole du Ski Français" ("French Ski School") is authorised by the Syndicat National des Moniteurs du Ski Français (S.N.M.S.F. - "National Union of French Ski Instructors"), founded in 1945. The latter’s objective is to organise the profession by ensuring that instructors enjoy autonomy in their organisation and teaching.

When you are a recipient of E.S.F. services, your personal data are therefore processed both by the Syndicat Local and by the S.N.M.S.F., each acting as a processing manager pursuing its own ends.

In other words :

•  The Syndicat Local processes your data for managing its contractual relations with you (invoicing, payment,         bookings management, etc.), for the purpose of conducting marketing operations and to comply with its legal obligations.
• The S.N.M.S.F. processes your data since it manages the central bookings IT system enabling the Syndicats Locaux to collect the data required for organising the E.S.F. services. The S.N.M.S.F. manages this IT system for the needs of CRM processing.

                              a. General case 

Your personal data collected when you choose to register (online or at the ticket desk), with or without booking, are as follows :

                             c. "Star" test and E.S.F. competition results

If you have taken part in the "STAR" tests and/or E.S.F. competitions, your results shall be made public and posted on the premises of the Syndicat Local and online

Appropriate measures shall be taken both technically (e.g., firewalls) and organisationally (e.g., login/password, physical means of protection, etc.) to protect your data from destruction, loss or misappropriation and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure, be these actions illicit or accidental.
