Reporting is a serious process that may have implications for the people concerned. As such, it is important to carefully consider the veracity of the facts observed and the comments made so that they are not considered defamatory. Misuse of this system is prohibited. To be admissible, your report must be serious and meet the conditions of the applicable procedure. Your report will be processed provided, in particular, that it complies with the following conditions:
- the alert concerns harmful facts, behaviour or situations ;
- the alert may be accompanied by attachments, which must be relevant;
- the information provided is sufficiently substantiated.
Each report will be forwarded to the persons specially authorised to deal with your alert, who are bound by an obligation of confidentiality, and will be subject to rigorous analysis. You have the option of remaining anonymous. However, in this case, it may take longer to process your alert. If you have any questions about your status as a whistleblower and your rights and obligations, please contact the Défenseur des droits, an independent administrative authority: https://www.defenseurdesdroits.fr/fr/lanceurs-dalerte.
Misuse of the whistleblowing system gives rise to civil liability on the part of the perpetrator vis-à-vis the victim of the slanderous denunciation and may expose the perpetrator to disciplinary and criminal penalties for the offence of slanderous denunciation (punishable by 5 years' imprisonment and a €45,000 fine), breach of trust (punishable by 3 years' imprisonment and a €375,000 fine), deletion or alteration of computer data (punishable by 3 years' imprisonment and a €100,000 fine).
Any personal data communicated in application of this internal alert system will be processed in accordance with the legal provisions applicable to the protection and processing of personal data set out in the French Data Protection Act (Loi Informatique et Libertés) of 6 January 1978 and the General Data Protection Regulation (Règlement général sur la protection des données), "RGPD".
This data is collected in order to comply with the "Sapin II Law", and more generally with the legal obligations applicable to the schools of the educational group.
It will be recorded in a computerised file and may be transmitted to the competent administrative and judicial authorities. Personal data relating to the alert will be kept until the end of the procedure or the time limit for appeals against the decision.
The processing of personal data required for this alert system is subject to a declaration in the CCI Paris Île-de-France personal data processing register. It will be amended as necessary to take account of any changes in the characteristics of the data collected, its processing or storage.
The sender of the alert and the person who is the subject of the alert may at any time access the data concerning them and request that it be corrected or deleted if it is inaccurate, incomplete, ambiguous or out of date.
