02What data, why and for how long?
In short: We collect the bare minimum, and only for specific reasons.
| Situation | Data | Purpose | Legal basis | Retention period |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| You write to me by email | Email address, name if given, content of the message | To reply to you | Legitimate interest (replying to your request) | 3 years after the last exchange |
| You browse the site | IP address, date/time, page viewed, browser (technical logs) | Security and proper functioning of the site | Legitimate interest (security) | Depends on the host (often 30 days max.) |
No data is sold, rented or used for advertising purposes. No automated decision-making or profiling is carried out.
03Who can access it?
In short: Only the publisher, and the technical providers that are strictly necessary.

04Does your data leave the European Union?
In short: If a provider is located outside the EU, legal safeguards govern the transfer.
To be adapted according to the providers. If the host or the email provider is established outside the European Union (for example in the United States), the transfer is governed by a European Commission adequacy decision (Data Privacy Framework) or by standard contractual clauses, in accordance with Articles 45 and 46 of the GDPR.
