Last updated: August 9, 2026.

The National Institute of Divinatory Arts (INAD), an association governed by the law of July 1, 1901, attaches great importance to the protection of personal data. This page explains what data can be processed by the inad.info site, its administration area and the Meta “INAD” application, why they are processed and how to exercise your rights.

Data controller

National Institute of Divinatory Arts (INAD)
8, rue de Nesle
75006 Paris, France

For any questions relating to your data: contact@inad.info.

Data concerned

Depending on your relationship with INAD, the data processed may include:

• the identification and contact information that you communicate to INAD;
• the information necessary for the management of users, professionals, members and signatories of the Charter;
• elements intended for publication in the directory, in particular the professional name, photography, presentation, arts practiced, city and means of contact chosen;
• technical information strictly necessary for the operation and security of the service, such as the IP address, the date of the request, the page requested and the browser, when they appear in the host’s logs;
• for administrators who link to the INAD Facebook Page: the identifier and name of the selected Page, the authorizations granted and the access token necessary for the publication of the articles. INAD never receives the Facebook password.

Purposes and legal bases

This data is used only for:

• respond to requests addressed to INAD;
• administer the associative relationship and the procedures requested by members or professionals;
• publish and keep the directory up to date when the person has requested or accepted this publication;
• ensure operation, security and prevention of abuse;
• allow authorized administrators to publish INAD articles on the chosen Facebook Page.

Depending on the situation, processing is based on your consent, the execution of a requested process or associative relationship, compliance with a legal obligation or the legitimate interest of INAD in operating and securing its services.

INAD Facebook application

The “INAD” Meta application is reserved for authorized administrators. It only requests the authorizations necessary to identify the administered Pages, read the information from the selected Page and publish the chosen articles there.

The access token is encrypted in the administration database. It is neither sold nor used to establish an advertising profile. Logging out from admin clears the token, Page ID, and login information retained by the app.

Recipients and service providers

The data is accessible only to persons authorized by INAD and, to the extent necessary for their provision, to the technical suppliers used for hosting, the database and the distribution of images, in particular Heroku/Salesforce and Cloudinary.

Some pages may load third-party services, for example Facebook, X, Google Maps or Google technical resources. These providers may receive technical information and apply their own privacy policies. Share links open their sites in a new tab.

Some service providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. In this case, the transfer is subject to the legal guarantees and mechanisms put in place by the service provider concerned.

Shelf life

The data is kept for the period necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, then for the periods imposed by legal obligations or the defense of INAD’s rights. Information published in the directory is removed when it no longer needs to be displayed or when an admissible request requires it. Facebook connection data is deleted upon disconnection from the Page or requested deletion.

Cookies and third-party servicesThe public site does not use a visitor account. Third-party services integrated into certain pages may, however, deposit or consult trackers according to their own rules. You can limit these trackers with your browser settings and the preferences offered by the services concerned.

Your rights

Under the conditions provided for by the GDPR and the Data Protection Act, you can request access, rectification or erasure of your data, limitation of processing, oppose processing, request portability of the data you have provided or withdraw your consent at any time.

Send your request to contact@inad.info, indicating the information allowing you to be identified and the nature of your request. Identification will only be requested if there is reasonable doubt about your identity.

You can also lodge a complaint with the National Commission for Information Technology and Liberties (CNIL).

To request erasure, see data deletion instructions.
