General Terms and Conditions of Use of Simplimmat
07/04/24
1.1 General terms and conditions of use of Simplimmat.gouv
1.1.1 Purpose
These general terms and conditions of use (hereafter, the "Terms of Use") are intended to govern the access to and the use of Simplimmat.gouv (hereafter, the "Application"). They apply to any access to, use of or consultation of the Application by a user.
The use of the Application is optional and free of charge. It helps to simplify the administrative procedures for selling and applying for registration (carte grise (vehicle registration document)) of used vehicles between private individuals.
All users must read and understand the Terms of Use before using the Application. Users access the Application by clicking on "I have read the general terms and conditions of use". Users thus expressly acknowledge that they have read these Terms of Use.
These Terms of Use may be amended at any time, without prior notice, depending on the changes made to the Application, changes in legislation or for any other reason deemed necessary.
The amendments will then come into force as from the date of their publication on the Application, or from any other date that may be indicated. By simply accessing the Application, all users are considered to have acknowledged the new version of the Terms of Use for the Application.
It is the responsibility of the user of the Application to consult the Terms of Use regularly.
1.1.2 Description of the application
The Application allows any natural person of legal age residing in France and holding a FranceConnect account to perform the following actions directly on his/her telephone:
- Sell or purchase a vehicle and apply to register a vehicle in his/her name (if the user is the main registrant of the vehicle registration document or former carte grise (vehicle registration document));
- Share vehicle information (the information on the carte grise (vehicle registration document), results of the last technical control, joint registrants of the carte grise);
- Complete and co-sign the electronic certificate of transfer between the seller and the buyer;
- Make the request to change the registrant of the carte grise (vehicle registration document);
- Prepare and consult documents such as the provisional registration certificate and the certificate of sale issued by the Application;
The Application is an alternative option to the teleservices available on the ANTS portal for the administrative procedures involved in declaring the sale of a used vehicle between private individuals and requesting a change of the registrant of the carte grise (vehicle registration document). It supports all private vehicles registered in the format in force since 2009 (AB-123-CD), with the exception of the following vehicles: end-of-life vehicles, rental vehicles, corporate vehicles, imported foreign vehicles, trailers, agricultural vehicles and heavy goods vehicles. This list is subject to change. The Application will automatically check whether the vehicle is supported.
Once the transfer and change of registrant procedures have been completed, a summary of the details entered by the user is displayed on the screen, so that he/she can check and confirm them. Once confirmed, the details are then recorded in the records of the national vehicle registration system (SIV). The user's handwritten signature confirms the data entered on the electronic forms presented by the Application, which will be inserted in the electronic certificate of transfer. This replaces the form cerfa 15776*02 - Certificate of sale of a used vehicle. It has strictly the same legal value.
The personal details and address declared by the purchaser when declaring the transfer will be automatically inserted in the declaration of change of registrant when the purchaser of the vehicle so requests.
The electronic transfer certificate or provisional registration certificate can be downloaded in PDF format.
In the event of any anomalies in using the Application, the user is re-directed to the Portal of the Agence Nationale des Titres Sécurisés (National Agency for Secure Documents) (the ANTS) immatriculation.ants.gouv.fr.
Use of the camera by the Application
Access to the phone's camera allows a QR code to be read in order to synchronise the files between the telephones of the seller and the buyer.
Use of geolocation by the Application
The function "complete the context of the sale" may use the phone's geolocation in order to automatically detect the place of sale. The place can also be input manually if geolocation is deactivated on the telephone.
1.1.3 Methods of access
The Application is available for download on the App Store or Google Play.
It is expressly agreed that only devices with an operating system equal to or later than Android version 7.1 v25 or iOS version 13 can access the Application.
Access to the Application also requires a wifi or 4G connection as well as a valid telephone number and a FranceConnect account to enable the user's Simplimmat account to be created and authenticated.
The Délégation à la Sécurité Routière (French Road Safety Delegation) (the DSR) undertakes, as part of an obligation of means, to ensure the availability and accessibility of the Application, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Nonetheless, the ANTS may carry out tests, checks and/or maintenance operations, as well as any necessary interventions in the event of a breakdown or security alert, at any time. The DSR will endeavour to provide as much notice as possible, by means of an announcement on the Application, of the occurrence of such an operation. The DSR cannot be held responsible for any direct or indirect consequences that may result for any user.
It is the responsibility of all users to ensure that they have the appropriate IT and electronic communications equipment to access the Application and/or the site and to take all appropriate measures to protect their data, documents of any kind and software stored on, coming from or directed to their IT equipment or any other computer terminal against any attack or damage.
All users acknowledge that they are familiar with and understand the Internet, electronic communication networks and their limitations and, in particular, their functional characteristics and technical performance risks of interruption, response times for consulting, querying or transferring information, and the risks, of whatever nature, inherent in any data transfer, particularly on an open network.
1.1.4 Modification and development of the Application
The DSR reserves the right to develop, modify or suspend the Application, without advance warning, for reasons of maintenance or for any other reason deemed necessary. An information page is then displayed to the user that states the unavailability of the site.
The unavailability of the Application does not create any right to compensation.
1.1.5 Creating a user account
To access the services of the Application, users must be authenticated by creating a Simplimmat account. This requires:
- downloading the Application on the telephone;
- entering the number for the corresponding mobile phone;
- entering the code received by SMS;
- authentication by means of a FranceConnect account.
Once the authentication is completed, the user can access the services of the Application.
1.1.6 Use of Service
1.1.6.1 Declare the sale or purchase of a used vehicle
To initiate this service, the users - both the seller of the vehicle and the buyer of the vehicle - must be together.
The declaration of sale involves the following actions by the selling user:
- Entering information from the vehicle registration document (CIV) for the vehicle being sold;
- Entering a six (6) digit security code. This security code will then be used by the user to access the Application;
- Sharing information about the vehicle with the buyer by entering the buyer's telephone number;
- Entering the kilometrage;
- Entering the place of sale;
- The buyer takes a photo of the QR code displayed on the phone screen;

- Download the sales certificate in PDF format.
Declaring the purchase involves the following actions on the part of the purchasing user:
- Receiving, consulting and validating the vehicle file provided by the seller;
- Entering a six (6) digit security code. This security code will then be used by the user to access the Application;
- Taking a photo of the QR code displayed on the seller's phone screen;
- Signature and validation of the transfer;
- Download the sales certificate in PDF format.
1.1.6.2 Get the new carte grise (vehicle registration document)
To start this service, the user must first have declared the purchase of a vehicle using the Application.
The following actions must then be carried out by the purchasing user:
- Entering the identity of any possible co-registrants;
- Selecting the vehicle corresponding to the request;
- Paying the registration taxes;
- Download the provisional registration certificate (CPI);
1.1.6.3 Consult the list of the user's vehicles
To access this service, the user must first have declared the purchase or sale of a vehicle using the Application.
This module allows the user to find the documents corresponding to his/her vehicle: Certificate of sale, provisional registration certificate.
1.1.7 Costs involved in the service
The Service is free of charge. All the costs and expenses for equipment, communication charges and other charges necessary for connection and access to and use of the Application, as well as any necessary or related authorisation charges, are and remain the responsibility of the user.
Also, the payment of the registration taxes remains applicable when using the Application.
1.1.8 Security and confidentiality of the Application
The DSR undertakes to take all necessary precautions to protect the security of data collected from users, and in particular to prevent it from being distorted, damaged or accessed by unauthorised third parties.
As there is no technical alternative to using the Google service, data cannot be encrypted using the application. As a result, data collection and storage has been reduced to the technical identifier of the telephone only.
The Exodus scan detects the presence of trackers embedded in an Android application. A tracker may be indicated in a report, but the analysis does not detect whether that tracker is enabled.
As the FAQ on the exodus-privacy website indicates: "Our static detection method looks in applications for the presence of a defined list of trackers. If the signature of a tracker is detected in the analysis, its presence is indicated in the report. This is not a proof of activity of these trackers".
For the Simplimmat app, the Exodus scan brings up a tracker: Google Firebase Analytics. This tracker is not enabled in the App.
The Firebase cookies and trackers used are strictly those necessary for the App to function properly. They are not linked to other operations such as personalised advertising. In accordance with article 82 of the French Data Privacy Act [https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/loda/article_lc/LEGIARTI000037813978/] and article 5 of CNIL deliberation 2020-092 of 17 September 2020 [https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/cnil/id/CNILTEXT000042398022/], information on browsing and account logins may be collected without your consent.
The DSR reserves the right to suspend access to the App if it believes that an event likely to affect its operation or integrity requires it to do so, or in the event of maintenance. This suspension may last as long as needed for the planned intervention. Where applicable, as soon as it is aware of the dates of scheduled interventions, the DSR undertakes to warn users as soon as possible on the home page of the App or by any other means at its convenience, and to reduce downtime during the day. However, the DSR cannot be held liable under any circumstances for this suspension and will not owe any compensation.
1.1.9 Intellectual property rights
1.1.9.1 The Application
The Application is protected by intellectual property rights and/or other rights held by the DSR or which the DSR is authorised to use.
Any unauthorised extraction and/or re-use of one or more databases taken or copied or made from the content of the Application, whether directly or indirectly, is punishable under civil and criminal law.
Users must respect all indications relating to intellectual property rights appearing on the Application and must not alter, delete, modify or otherwise infringe upon them.
1.1.9.2 The trademarks
The DSR is and will remain the owner of its distinctive signs, namely: trademarks, company names and other commercial names, signs and domain names.

The DSR is not responsible for the unavailability of the (software or hardware) networks that are not entirely under its direct control, or for any modification, suspension or interruption of the Application and/or the service, as well as the continuity, durability, compliance, compatibility or performance of such networks or the absence of bugs.
The DSR cannot be considered to be responsible for fraudulent use of the user's equipment and the confidential security code by a third party.
Moreover, the DSR does not assume any commitment or responsibility:
- with regard to the use of the Application and/or the service by the user that is not in accordance with the regulations in force regarding the protection of software;
- with regard to the normal wear and tear of the computer equipment of the user, or damage to information on such equipment due to the influence of magnetic fields.
1.1.10.2 Responsibility of the user

Complete or partial strike, lock-out, riot, civil unrest, insurrection, civil or foreign war, nuclear risk, embargo, confiscation, capture or destruction by any public authority, bad weather, epidemic, blockage of means of transport or supply for any reason whatsoever, earthquake, fire, storm, flood, water damage, governmental or legal restrictions, legal or regulatory changes to marketing methods, blockages of electronic communications, including electronic communications networks, which cannot be foreseen by the DSR, and which call into question the norms and standards of its profession and any other event beyond the control of the parties which prevent the normal performance of the obligations arising from these Terms of Use.
Any case of force majeure that affects the performance of the obligations resulting from these Terms of Use and in particular access to or use of the service by the user will suspend the performance of these Terms of Use as of the date that this occurs. As from this date, and despite the case of force majeure, the DSR will endeavour to the extent possible:
- to inform users of the existence of this case of force majeure;
- to put in place any other technical solution that will allow the users to complete their sales formalities and to request a vehicle registration document.
The exceptional implementation of these palliative measures by the DSR during the occurrence of a case of force majeure shall not result in any liability or compensation on the part of the DSR.

1.2 Information statements concerning the processing by Simplimmat.gouv
In accordance with the Law No. 78-17 of 06 January 1978 on Data Processing, Data Files and Individual Liberties (the French Data Protection Act), as amended, and the General Data Protection Regulation (the GDPR), the Road Safety Delegation (the DSR), in its capacity as data controller, has established the Simplimmat Application for the following purposes:
- To make it possible to electronically declare the sale of used vehicles between private individuals and report the change of registrant
- To provide users with a secure title
- To produce statistics on user transactions
To enable geolocation to auto-complete the place of sale.
The legal basis of this processing is:
- Article 6 (e) of the GDPR for the first three purposes, as the Simplimmat app is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest
- Article 6 a) of the GDPR for the last purpose insofar as users of the Simplimmat application have given consent to the collection of their geolocation data
This app collects the following categories of data:
- Data relating to users and civil status (surname, first name, postal address, date and place of birth, etc.)
- Vehicle details (registration number, vehicle technical data, date, time and place of sale, registration certificate number, vehicle mileage, vehicle administrative status, vehicle roadworthiness test, etc.)
- Contact details of potential buyers/sellers (telephone no., e-mail address, etc.)
- The hardware and operating system identifiers used by the processing media
- Functional logging
- Transaction geolocation data
The identity and vehicle data collected during the declaration of purchase and sale are retained:
- Until the user's account is deleted, if the transfer operation is not finalised
- For five years if the operation is completed in accordance with the vehicle registration system (Système d'Immatriculation des Véhicules - SIV).
The personal data processed comes directly from users of the App and indirectly from the SIV to carry out consistency checks and retrieve all the information relating to the vehicle and its registrant, and from UTAC (a French private organisation that verifies vehicles) to check the validity of the vehicle's roadworthiness test enabling the digital procedure to be carried out.
The data is transmitted to the vehicle registration system (SIV) and can be viewed by authorised agents of the Ministry of the Interior and the French National Security Agency (ANTS) within the scope of their respective responsibilities and within the limits of what is strictly necessary.
Technical identifiers of mobile devices are used by Firebase (Google Service) and Netsize to facilitate real-time communication by sending push notifications to the user. There is no technical alternative to the service offered by Google. As data encryption was not possible, the data was limited to the bare minimum, i.e. only the technical identifier of the phone. Firebase does not store the phone's technical identifier. This data is only kept in the App for as long as the Simplimmat user account continues to exist. The data collected by the App concerning the vehicle may come from the manual entry of information on the vehicle registration certificate by the user. Data relating to the place of sale of the vehicle is collected by the App, either by geolocation or by manual entry of the place of sale by the seller. The client can choose between the two data collection methods. Geolocation is offered to users. Its activation requires prior consent and serves only to auto-populate the dedicated field, as geolocation data is not stored as such.
SOPRA processes the personal data required to carry out third-party application maintenance for the Simplimmat app. The purpose of the corrections carried out by SOPRA is to keep Simplimmat in operational condition. Access to this data is for special cases only, limited to resolving anomalies.
WorldLine is the host/operator of the Simplimmat app and may process personal data in the context of data extractions for transmission to the Third Party Application Maintenance team for analysis and correction. Access to this data is controlled by the validation required by ANTS beforehand. Access to this data is for special cases only, limited to resolving anomalies.
To exercise their rights of access, rectification and restriction (Art.15, 16 and 18 of the GDPR), users must send their request accompanied by proof of identity.
- By post to:
Délégation à la sécurité routière – Place Beauvau – 75800 PARIS Cedex 08, France
Attn: Le Délégué ministériel à la protection des données.
- Or by e-mail to:
The DSR's Data Protection Officer: donnees-personnelles-dsr@interieur.gouv.fr
In accordance with article 21 of the GDPR, users have the right to object to the processing of data concerning them, giving reasons relating to their particular situation. Whether the referral is made by post or electronically, the right to object will be exercised in the same way. However, the data controller may turn down this objection if there are legitimate and compelling grounds for doing so.
In accordance with article 82 of the French Data Privacy Act, users are informed that the Simplimmat app collects technical identifiers stored on their mobile device in order to enable instant electronic communication facilitating transactions between potential buyers and sellers.
This processing is supervised by the Ministerial Data Protection Officer of the Ministry of the Interior (Délégué ministériel à la protection des données -Ministère de l’intérieur- Place Beauvau 75800 Paris Cedex 08). Users may also lodge a complaint with the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés (CNIL 3, Place de Fontenoy-TSA 80715 - 75334 Paris Cedex 07)

1.3.2 Hosting
The Application is hosted by the ANTS and the storage of the personal data of the users is done exclusively on the servers of the ANTS.
1.4 Help and contacts

General Terms and Conditions of Use of Simplimmat
07/04/24
1.1 General terms and conditions of use of Simplimmat.gouv
1.1.1 Purpose
These general terms and conditions of use (hereafter, the "Terms of Use") are intended to govern the access to and the use of Simplimmat.gouv (hereafter, the "Application"). They apply to any access to, use of or consultation of the Application by a user.
The use of the Application is optional and free of charge. It helps to simplify the administrative procedures for selling and applying for registration (carte grise (vehicle registration document)) of used vehicles between private individuals.
All users must read and understand the Terms of Use before using the Application. Users access the Application by clicking on "I have read the general terms and conditions of use". Users thus expressly acknowledge that they have read these Terms of Use.
These Terms of Use may be amended at any time, without prior notice, depending on the changes made to the Application, changes in legislation or for any other reason deemed necessary.
The amendments will then come into force as from the date of their publication on the Application, or from any other date that may be indicated. By simply accessing the Application, all users are considered to have acknowledged the new version of the Terms of Use for the Application.
It is the responsibility of the user of the Application to consult the Terms of Use regularly.
1.1.2 Description of the application
The Application allows any natural person of legal age residing in France and holding a FranceConnect account to perform the following actions directly on his/her telephone:
- Sell or purchase a vehicle and apply to register a vehicle in his/her name (if the user is the main registrant of the vehicle registration document or former carte grise (vehicle registration document));
- Share vehicle information (the information on the carte grise (vehicle registration document), results of the last technical control, joint registrants of the carte grise);
- Complete and co-sign the electronic certificate of transfer between the seller and the buyer;
- Make the request to change the registrant of the carte grise (vehicle registration document);
- Prepare and consult documents such as the provisional registration certificate and the certificate of sale issued by the Application;
The Application is an alternative option to the teleservices available on the ANTS portal for the administrative procedures involved in declaring the sale of a used vehicle between private individuals and requesting a change of the registrant of the carte grise (vehicle registration document). It supports all private vehicles registered in the format in force since 2009 (AB-123-CD), with the exception of the following vehicles: end-of-life vehicles, rental vehicles, corporate vehicles, imported foreign vehicles, trailers, agricultural vehicles and heavy goods vehicles.

Once the transfer and change of registrant procedures have been completed, a summary of the details entered by the user is displayed on the screen, so that he/she can check and confirm them. Once confirmed, the details are then recorded in the records of the national vehicle registration system (SIV). The user's handwritten signature confirms the data entered on the electronic forms presented by the Application, which will be inserted in the electronic certificate of transfer. This replaces the form cerfa 15776*02 - Certificate of sale of a used vehicle. It has strictly the same legal value.
The personal details and address declared by the purchaser when declaring the transfer will be automatically inserted in the declaration of change of registrant when the purchaser of the vehicle so requests.
The electronic transfer certificate or provisional registration certificate can be downloaded in PDF format.
In the event of any anomalies in using the Application, the user is re-directed to the Portal of the Agence Nationale des Titres Sécurisés (National Agency for Secure Documents) (the ANTS) immatriculation.ants.gouv.fr.
Use of the camera by the Application
Access to the phone's camera allows a QR code to be read in order to synchronise the files between the telephones of the seller and the buyer.
Use of geolocation by the Application
The function "complete the context of the sale" may use the phone's geolocation in order to automatically detect the place of sale. The place can also be input manually if geolocation is deactivated on the telephone.
1.1.3 Methods of access
The Application is available for download on the App Store or Google Play.
It is expressly agreed that only devices with an operating system equal to or later than Android version 7.1 v25 or iOS version 13 can access the Application.
Access to the Application also requires a wifi or 4G connection as well as a valid telephone number and a FranceConnect account to enable the user's Simplimmat account to be created and authenticated.
The Délégation à la Sécurité Routière (French Road Safety Delegation) (the DSR) undertakes, as part of an obligation of means, to ensure the availability and accessibility of the Application, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Nonetheless, the ANTS may carry out tests, checks and/or maintenance operations, as well as any necessary interventions in the event of a breakdown or security alert, at any time. The DSR will endeavour to provide as much notice as possible, by means of an announcement on the Application, of the occurrence of such an operation. The DSR cannot be held responsible for any direct or indirect consequences that may result for any user.
It is the responsibility of all users to ensure that they have the appropriate IT and electronic communications equipment to access the Application and/or the site and to take all appropriate measures to protect their data, documents of any kind and software stored on, coming from or directed to their IT equipment or any other computer terminal against any attack or damage.
All users acknowledge that they are familiar with and understand the Internet, electronic communication networks and their limitations and, in particular, their functional characteristics and technical performance risks of interruption, response times for consulting, querying or transferring information, and the risks, of whatever nature, inherent in any data transfer, particularly on an open network.
1.1.4 Modification and development of the Application
The DSR reserves the right to develop, modify or suspend the Application, without advance warning, for reasons of maintenance or for any other reason deemed necessary. An information page is then displayed to the user that states the unavailability of the site.
The unavailability of the Application does not create any right to compensation.

1.1.7 Costs involved in the service
The Service is free of charge. All the costs and expenses for equipment, communication charges and other charges necessary for connection and access to and use of the Application, as well as any necessary or related authorisation charges, are and remain the responsibility of the user.
Also, the payment of the registration taxes remains applicable when using the Application.
1.1.8 Security and confidentiality of the Application
The DSR undertakes to take all necessary precautions to protect the security of data collected from users, and in particular to prevent it from being distorted, damaged or accessed by unauthorised third parties.
As there is no technical alternative to using the Google service, data cannot be encrypted using the application. As a result, data collection and storage has been reduced to the technical identifier of the telephone only.
The Exodus scan detects the presence of trackers embedded in an Android application. A tracker may be indicated in a report, but the analysis does not detect whether that tracker is enabled.
As the FAQ on the exodus-privacy website indicates: "Our static detection method looks in applications for the presence of a defined list of trackers. If the signature of a tracker is detected in the analysis, its presence is indicated in the report. This is not a proof of activity of these trackers".
For the Simplimmat app, the Exodus scan brings up a tracker: Google Firebase Analytics. This tracker is not enabled in the App.
The Firebase cookies and trackers used are strictly those necessary for the App to function properly. They are not linked to other operations such as personalised advertising. In accordance with article 82 of the French Data Privacy Act [https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/loda/article_lc/LEGIARTI000037813978/] and article 5 of CNIL deliberation 2020-092 of 17 September 2020 [https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/cnil/id/CNILTEXT000042398022/], information on browsing and account logins may be collected without your consent.
The DSR reserves the right to suspend access to the App if it believes that an event likely to affect its operation or integrity requires it to do so, or in the event of maintenance. This suspension may last as long as needed for the planned intervention. Where applicable, as soon as it is aware of the dates of scheduled interventions, the DSR undertakes to warn users as soon as possible on the home page of the App or by any other means at its convenience, and to reduce downtime during the day. However, the DSR cannot be held liable under any circumstances for this suspension and will not owe any compensation.
1.1.9 Intellectual property rights
1.1.9.1 The Application

Any case of force majeure that affects the performance of the obligations resulting from these Terms of Use and in particular access to or use of the service by the user will suspend the performance of these Terms of Use as of the date that this occurs. As from this date, and despite the case of force majeure, the DSR will endeavour to the extent possible:
- to inform users of the existence of this case of force majeure;
- to put in place any other technical solution that will allow the users to complete their sales formalities and to request a vehicle registration document.
The exceptional implementation of these palliative measures by the DSR during the occurrence of a case of force majeure shall not result in any liability or compensation on the part of the DSR.

1.2 Information statements concerning the processing by Simplimmat.gouv
In accordance with the Law No. 78-17 of 06 January 1978 on Data Processing, Data Files and Individual Liberties (the French Data Protection Act), as amended, and the General Data Protection Regulation (the GDPR), the Road Safety Delegation (the DSR), in its capacity as data controller, has established the Simplimmat Application for the following purposes:
- To make it possible to electronically declare the sale of used vehicles between private individuals and report the change of registrant
- To provide users with a secure title
- To produce statistics on user transactions
To enable geolocation to auto-complete the place of sale.
The legal basis of this processing is:
- Article 6 (e) of the GDPR for the first three purposes, as the Simplimmat app is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest
- Article 6 a) of the GDPR for the last purpose insofar as users of the Simplimmat application have given consent to the collection of their geolocation data
This app collects the following categories of data:
- Data relating to users and civil status (surname, first name, postal address, date and place of birth, etc.)
- Vehicle details (registration number, vehicle technical data, date, time and place of sale, registration certificate number, vehicle mileage, vehicle administrative status, vehicle roadworthiness test, etc.)
- Contact details of potential buyers/sellers (telephone no., e-mail address, etc.)
- The hardware and operating system identifiers used by the processing media
- Functional logging
- Transaction geolocation data
The identity and vehicle data collected during the declaration of purchase and sale are retained:
- Until the user's account is deleted, if the transfer operation is not finalised
- For five years if the operation is completed in accordance with the vehicle registration system (Système d'Immatriculation des Véhicules - SIV).
The personal data processed comes directly from users of the App and indirectly from the SIV to carry out consistency checks and retrieve all the information relating to the vehicle and its registrant, and from UTAC (a French private organisation that verifies vehicles) to check the validity of the vehicle's roadworthiness test enabling the digital procedure to be carried out.
The data is transmitted to the vehicle registration system (SIV) and can be viewed by authorised agents of the Ministry of the Interior and the French National Security Agency (ANTS) within the scope of their respective responsibilities and within the limits of what is strictly necessary.
Technical identifiers of mobile devices are used by Firebase (Google Service) and Netsize to facilitate real-time communication by sending push notifications to the user. There is no technical alternative to the service offered by Google. As data encryption was not possible, the data was limited to the bare minimum, i.e. only the technical identifier of the phone. Firebase does not store the phone's technical identifier. This data is only kept in the App for as long as the Simplimmat user account continues to exist. The data collected by the App concerning the vehicle may come from the manual entry of information on the vehicle registration certificate by the user. Data relating to the place of sale of the vehicle is collected by the App, either by geolocation or by manual entry of the place of sale by the seller. The client can choose between the two data collection methods. Geolocation is offered to users. Its activation requires prior consent and serves only to auto-populate the dedicated field, as geolocation data is not stored as such.
SOPRA processes the personal data required to carry out third-party application maintenance for the Simplimmat app. The purpose of the corrections carried out by SOPRA is to keep Simplimmat in operational condition. Access to this data is for special cases only, limited to resolving anomalies.
WorldLine is the host/operator of the Simplimmat app and may process personal data in the context of data extractions for transmission to the Third Party Application Maintenance team for analysis and correction. Access to this data is controlled by the validation required by ANTS beforehand. Access to this data is for special cases only, limited to resolving anomalies.
To exercise their rights of access, rectification and restriction (Art.15, 16 and 18 of the GDPR), users must send their request accompanied by proof of identity.
- By post to:
Délégation à la sécurité routière – Place Beauvau – 75800 PARIS Cedex 08, France
Attn: Le Délégué ministériel à la protection des données.
- Or by e-mail to:
The DSR's Data Protection Officer: donnees-personnelles-dsr@interieur.gouv.fr
In accordance with article 21 of the GDPR, users have the right to object to the processing of data concerning them, giving reasons relating to their particular situation. Whether the referral is made by post or electronically, the right to object will be exercised in the same way. However, the data controller may turn down this objection if there are legitimate and compelling grounds for doing so.
In accordance with article 82 of the French Data Privacy Act, users are informed that the Simplimmat app collects technical identifiers stored on their mobile device in order to enable instant electronic communication facilitating transactions between potential buyers and sellers.
This processing is supervised by the Ministerial Data Protection Officer of the Ministry of the Interior (Délégué ministériel à la protection des données -Ministère de l’intérieur- Place Beauvau 75800 Paris Cedex 08). Users may also lodge a complaint with the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés (CNIL 3, Place de Fontenoy-TSA 80715 - 75334 Paris Cedex 07)
