How does MyPeopleDoc®work?

A MyPeopleDoc®account creation is only done by invitation from your employer. You are an employer and you would like to be contacted by our teams : Click here

MyPeopleDoc®is a personal and secure storage space.As such, you can deposit documents and files you wish to keep, up to a limit of 250MB per document, and 10GB for all the documents stored, rename them, classify them via a system of labels.

You can share the documents in your vault with third parties, through the creation of sharing spaces.

You can also delete documents that you no longer want to keep, by dropping them in the recycle bin. Documents in the recycle bin still count as 10GB of storage space, and you can restore them.To permanently delete documents, you must empty the recycle bin.

You can link your account to one or multiple employers.Once linked, the employer can send to your account any type of document he deems necessary, either automatically and regularly, or manually and punctually.Documents filed by your employer are certified.

 

Your action history on MyPeopleDoc

For security reasons, the history of actions performed on your account is kept for a period of 30 days. Its storage is intended to allow you, if necessary, to verify the use of your account, and to identify any unwanted access by a third party. This 30-day history is available upon request from support.

This history includes the following actions, associated with the date and time they were performed:

  • Login to the account
  • Failed attempts to log in to the account (e. g. wrong password)
  • Downloading a document
  • Viewing a document
How do I get my activation code?

You can open a MyPeopleDoc vault by using a unique and personal activation code. 


This code is usually sent by your employer to your professional email address automatically when your employee profile is created or via scheduled reminders. In rare cases, this code can be sent by postal mail if your employer decided it. These shipments are massive, invoiced and cannot be carried out individually.


This activation code can be used within 30 days of receipt and expires after that.
If you have not activated your vault in time or simply have not received an activation code, we invite you to request your employer the regeneration of a new code.

 

If your employer confirms you that your professional or even personal e-mail address is registered in your employee profile, you can ask for an activation code by going to our website www.mypeopledoc.com, click on «REQUEST AN INVITATION» and fill in the e-mail address.

 

If your employer is unable to send you a new code, we invite you to contact the MyPeopleDoc support teams here.

Do I have to activate my vault with my professional email address?

It is not compulsory to activate your vault with professional email address, you can also do it with a personal email address if you wish.

Attention : It is however recommended to register with a personal email address, so you will always have access to your personal vault in case of departure from the company.

 

Troubleshooting ⚠️

I didn't received my activation code

a code will only be sent to the email address indicated by your employer. If no address has been entered in your employee profile or it is incorrect, only your employer will be able to modify it.

MyPeopleDoc support will not send any activation code to an email address different from that indicated on your employee profile.

Invalid activation code

Capture_code_expir__ENG.JPG

This error message indicates that the time allocated to activate your e-vault has elapsed. Indeed, an activation code is valid for 30 days for email codes and a predefined expiration date for mail codes.

You therefore have the possibility to request a new code by clicking on «Obtain a new code by clicking on this link»

Click here to learn more about how to get a new activation code.

Expired activation code

capture_code_invalide_ENG.JPG

You will then have to click on «Have an account ? LOG IN»  to connect to your e-vault with your connection email address and your password. 

I activated my vault with the same email address as another member of my family

Using the same email address as another user of the electronic vault by registering via the option«Already a MyPeopleDoc user» will link the two vaults and thereby bringing all the documents together in one space.

In the case that you do not wish to share a personal space, we invite you to contact our support service on this subject by clicking here. You will also need to provide us a front / back copy of your your ID Card (Passport, Residence Permit, Driver licence or National Identity Card) so that we can proceed and separate the two accounts.

Once the separation of the two vaults is effective, a new activation code will be sent to the person whose vault has been reset.

I have an activation code that is still not expired but I cannot register

If you have an activation code that has not exceeded its validity period of 30 days and you cannot go beyond the first registration page after having filled in all the fields present therein, this means that your employer has specified in his tool that you are not eligible for the activation of an electronic vault.

To rectify this situation, we invite you to contact your employer so that he makes the modification from its PeopleDoc tool which will allow you to be able to activate your vault.

I'm already a MyPeopleDoc® user

If you already are a MyPeopleDoc® user from you previous employer, you have the possibility to link it with your new employer's e-vault.

During your second e-vault's activation processus, we invite you to click on "already a MyPeopleDoc® user" :

I left my activation code in plain sight and I am not subscribed yet. What should I do?

If you are not already registered, we invite you to try to activate your vault with this code.

If you manage to activate your vault, this confirms that no one has used your personal activation code and could not access your documents.Thus, your documents will remain protected by the logins you have chosen and only you will have access to your space.

If the interface displays the error message "Activation code: Invalid subscription code", it indicates that your code has already been used.

Account merging

Tutorials 🎓

I have two vaults from the same company but I can't link them, what should I do?

Indeed it is not possible to link two vaults from the same company. This action is only possible when the two accounts are from different companies. So if you are in this situation, we will invite you to finalize the registration of your second personal space by using an email other than that of the first vault.

You can also contact your employer or HR department on this subject so that a merger of your profiles is carried out, this will allow you to have your two accounts combined into one. Merging is only possible if the second vault is not activated.

I have activated my two vaults with different email addresses, can I still link my two accounts?

Unfortunately when you activate two accounts with two different email addresses, it is not possible to link them later, the linking process is only possible when activating your second vault. To perform this action you will need to click on the field « ALREADY A MYPEOPLEDOC USER  »once in the registration page.

You will then need to enter the email address associated with your first vault, as well as the password for it, for the link to become effective.

 


Legal, Confidentiality and Security

Tutorials 🎓

Legal

What is the legal value of my documents?

Your electronic pay slips have the same legal value as their paper equivalents. Even better, by using MyPeopleDoc® you have a personal trusted third party who certifies the originality and integrity of your documents.

 

In the event of a litigation (credit file, bank loan, employer file, housing lease etc...), PeopleDoc provide you with all the elements to justify that your pay slip is an original (each document is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity), which you cannot do with a paper copy, especially if it is dated 5 or 10 years ago.

Practical! You can also give a third-party access to certain documents in your MyPeopleDoc® account as well as to the electronic signature associated with them. This makes it impossible for them to claim any forgery. Each electronic document deposited on your MyPeopleDoc® account is therefore electronically signed and time-stamped to allow for the control of its integrity in the future. PeopleDoc guarantees the origin of the documents (accountability) by certifying that they come from your employer.

 

However, if an administrative body or a company questions the value of your documents received by MyPeopleDoc®, contact us by clicking here

 

Applicable in France

Since 12 May 2009, article L3243-2 of the French Labor Code authorizes the submission of the pay slip in electronic format and specifies the conditions for this submission.

 

The law of 13 March 2000, pursuant to Article 1316-1 of the French Civil Code, specifies that the legal value of an electronic document is linked to two criteria: its origin or imputability (from whom the document originates) and its original character or integrity (the document must not be capable of being altered or modified).

What is the difference between a document received by email and a document received by MyPeopleDoc?

The differences are that MyPeopleDoc ensures the security, privacy, legality and probative value (as well the legitimacy of time stamps) of documents they have received and stored. An email does not guarantee the legal validity of electronic documents because:

  • The legitimacy of an electronic document attached to an email is not guaranteed in time (no electronic signature, no time stamp).

  • The authentication of the email sender dubious (it is simply an email address)

All the documents that you receive on your MyPeopleDoc account are signed and archived securely with no time limit. The chronological legitimacy of your documents and the identity of the issuer are guaranteed by our service. With MyPeopleDoc, you do not receive spam and there is no risk of deleting your important documents by mistake. You will automatically receive your documents in a secure and confidential way, and they will be stored indefinitely.

Who owns the content of my account?

You are the owner of all the documents you receive and upload to your account.

You can access, download and delete them.

 

Confidentiality

Does my company have access to my account?

Your e-vault is a personal space to which only you have access thanks to your login details.

Your employer does not have, in any case, access to your identifiers, nor to your e-vault, nor to the documents in it. He has only the possibility of depositing documents which are intended for you via his PeopleDoc tool in direct connection with your e-vault.

Thus, if you wish to keep personal documents in your e-vault, only you have access to them, they are kept in an encrypted way by the CDC Arkhinéo.

If you have to leave your company (change of employer, retirement or other), you will always be able to connect to your e-vault without time limit and free of charge.

PeopleDoc is the operator of the service, ensuring the operational functioning of the system and the associated security measures. Your employer is the sole provider of the MyPeopleDoc® account, offering its employees and having the ability to send you documents (such as your payslips and/or
other work-related documents). After your employer sends you a document, the only person who may have a right to access, modify, correct and delete the data is you (and, if applicable, the individuals you have specifically authorized).

If you receive unwanted content in your MyPeopleDoc® account, please contact your HR department.

 

Security

The use of Google reCAPTCHA on MyPeopleDoc ®

Google reCAPTCHA (“reCAPTCHA”) is implemented on MyPeopleDoc®. This service is provided by Google Inc.," 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). 

We use reCHAPTA on our websites to prevent various types of data processing malicious attempts (e.g. phishing, credential stuffing etc). reCHAPTA analyzes various information of the respective visitor (e.g. IP address, mouse movements of the user, length of stay on the website). By using reCAPTCHA, data is transferred to Google, which is used to determine whether the visitor is a human being or a (spam) bot. 

The data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. PeopleDoc has a legitimate interest in protecting MyPeopleDoc against abusive automated spying, against spam as well as protecting third parties against such attacks. 

You can read which data is collected by Google and what this data is used for at https://policies.google.com/privacy

You can read the terms of use for Google services and products at https://policies.google.com/terms

How can you make sure to have a strong password for your eVault?

Phishing campaigns are a common activity for hackers in order to steal your usernames or passwords. They can use fraudulent emails but also malware (malicious software) to infect a connected device (computer, cell phone, tablet).

During our latest proactive security monitoring, we detected unusual activity being performed on some eVault accounts. This could lead to the theft of usernames and passwords of eVault users in order to access their accounts.

At UKG (formerly PeopleDoc) data security is our number one priority. We have put in place different actions to protect our customer data as well as push out information campaigns to educate our customers about data security. 

 

Each end user also has a role to play to protect their own personal data. This is why we want to share with you a list of recommendations on the creation and use of secure password habits. 

  • Change your passwords regularly as described in this article.
    If you forgot your password, you can reset it as described here.
  • Do not use the same password on multiple websites. So that if one of your accounts is hacked, other accounts will remain secure. 
  • Create strong passwords: 
    • Add symbols and numbers to increase complexity. 
    • Do not include personal information (date of birth, pet name, social security number, etc.) in your password. 
    • Never use your network username as a password. 
    • Use a sentence/passphrase where possible rather than a single word. 
  • Activate a 2-factor authentication on your eVault to strengthen its security (as described in this article).

We continue our work to help you make your data more secure. In case you have any questions or concerns about MyPeopleDoc eVault security, do not hesitate to contact our dedicated support team by following this link.
