Privacy Policy

How we collect, process, and protect your personal data in compliance with GDPR.

Last updated: 23 October 2026

1. Who processes your data

SIAMPRE, the SARL (limited liability company) that publishes the indep.now brand (RCS Évry, SIREN 894 033 000), is the controller of your personal data.

Address: 18 avenue Sébastien Digard, 91230 Montgeron, France

For any question or request about your data: contact@indep.now

2. The data we process

The data we process, and where it comes from:

  • Your identity, received from LinkedIn when you sign up: first name, last name, email address, photo and profile identifier.
  • Your professional activity, which you declare: company identifier (SIREN number for France, intra-EU or UK VAT number, or UK Companies House company number elsewhere), country of registration, verification level and public information about your company (SIRENE, VIES, Companies House or HMRC), skills, daily rate, location, work arrangement.
  • Your availability: status, dates, end of assignment, check-in frequency and your answers to our confirmation requests.
  • Your imported LinkedIn profile, if you choose to upload its PDF export: the extracted text and the analysis drawn from it. The file itself is never kept.
  • Technical data: a fingerprint of your IP address at sign-up, and the history of the emails we send you.

Outside France, we re-check your company every 30 days with VIES, Companies House or HMRC: the verification badge on your profile follows the result, and we notify you by email if your company is no longer recognised there.

3. Why, and on what legal basis

PurposeLegal basis
Creating and managing your account, keeping your availability up to date, sending you confirmation requestsPerformance of our contract (our Terms of Service)
Analysing the LinkedIn profile you uploadYour consent: uploading is optional, and you withdraw it by deleting the document from your profile
Keeping proof that you accepted the Terms of Service, and keeping a record of your account deletion requestsLegal obligation
Keeping the history of emails sent, protecting the service against abuseLegitimate interest

4. How long

  • Account and profile: for as long as your account exists. An account inactive for 3 years is deleted. When you request deletion, they are anonymised as soon as you confirm, and within 30 days at the latest.
  • Imported LinkedIn profile and its analysis: until you delete it, or your account is deleted.
  • Email history: 24 months. Emails relating to the exercise of your rights (export, deletion) are kept for 5 years. When your account is deleted, this history is detached from your identity.
  • Proof of acceptance of the Terms of Service: 5 years, including after your account is deleted. Your email address then only remains as a fingerprint (a hash keyed with a secret, which cannot be reversed without that key).
  • Technical data: sign-in links and pending emails, 30 days; abuse protection, 24 hours at most.

5. Who receives your data

We do not sell your data. Our processors handle it on our behalf:

  • Vercel (United States): application hosting.
  • Supabase: database, hosted in the European Union.
  • Resend (United States): sending our emails (address, first name, message content).
  • Groq (United States): analysis of the LinkedIn profile you upload, on a text from which name, contact details, date of birth and LinkedIn identifier have been removed. Groq does not keep this data and does not use it to train its models. Only if you upload this document.
  • Recherche d'entreprises API (French government, DINUM, INSEE data, France): looks up your company by name or SIREN at sign-up, then checks its administrative status daily. Public data, queried only to identify and follow your company.
  • VIES (European Commission, European Union): checks an intra-EU VAT number you declare, queried only to verify it.
  • Companies House (United Kingdom, a country the European Commission recognises as adequate): checks a UK company number you declare, queried only to verify it.
  • HMRC (tax authority, United Kingdom, a country the European Commission recognises as adequate): checks a UK VAT number you declare, queried only to verify it.

Transfers outside the European Union are governed by the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

6. Your rights

  • Access and portability: download your data from your settings (“Export my data”).
  • Rectification: correct your data directly in your profile. Your name and email address, imported from LinkedIn, are rectified on request at contact@indep.now, within one month.
  • Erasure: delete your account from your settings.
  • Objection: you can stop our confirmation requests at any time, using the link included in each of them.
  • Withdrawal of consent: delete the imported LinkedIn profile from your profile.
  • Restriction of processing, and any other request: write to contact@indep.now.

We reply within one month.

If you believe your rights are not being respected, you may lodge a complaint with the CNIL, the French data protection authority (www.cnil.fr).
