Use of personal data collected
Comments
When you leave a comment on our website, the data entered in the comment form, but also your IP address and your browser's user agent are collected to help us detect unwanted comments.
An anonymised string created from your email address (also known as a hash) can be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you are using the service. The privacy policy of the Gravatar service is available here. After validation of your comment, your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment.
Media
If you are a registered user and you upload images to the website, we advise you to avoid uploading images containing EXIF data of GPS coordinates. Visitors to your website can download and extract location data from these images.
Contact form
The "send" action just sends me an e-mail with the contents of the fields you've filled in: name, message and e-mail. I'll use this data for one thing only: to reply to you, and your e-mails will remain stored on theIONOS servers, for an indefinite period (I'll purge them from time to time or at your request).
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you will be asked to save your name, email address and website in cookies. This is only for your convenience so that you do not have to enter this information if you leave another comment later. These cookies expire after one year.
Embedded content from other sites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles...). Embedded content from other sites behaves in the same way as if the visitor were on that other site.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking tools, track your interactions with these embedded contents if you have a logged-in account on their website.
Statistics and audience measurement
The statistics of this site are managed via the Google Analytics service. The cookies collected make it possible to collect data on the use of the site with the aim of improving it. This data is not sold to third parties under any circumstances. More global statistical data (number of visitors per month, origin of visits, etc.) may be transmitted to third parties in the context of partnerships.
If you want to know more about the Google Analytics privacy policy, I invite you to read this page.
How long your data is stored
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows subsequent comments to be automatically recognised and approved instead of being left in the moderation queue.
For users who register on our site (if possible), we also store the personal data indicated in their profile. All users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time (with the exception of their username). Site managers can also view and modify this information.
The rights you have over your data
If you have an account or have left comments on the site, you can request to receive a file containing all the personal data we hold about you, including that which you have provided to us. You may also request the deletion of your personal data. This does not include data stored for administrative, legal or security purposes.
Transmission of your personal data
Visitor comments are checked using an automated spam detection service.
