Privacy policy

No account, no sign-up

The whole site can be browsed without creating an account. We ask for no name, no email address and no telephone number, and we build no visitor database.

Google AdSense advertising

The site is funded by advertising and displays ads served by Google AdSense.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve those ads. Its advertising cookie enables it to serve ads based on your visits to this site and to other sites.

You can turn off ad personalisation in the ad settings of your Google account. You can also refuse third-party cookies in your browser settings: the site remains fully readable, and only the ads lose their personalised character.

If you browse from the European Union, a consent message is shown before any advertising cookie is set, in line with Google's obligations and applicable regulation.

Audience measurement

We use Matomo to count visits and understand which pages are read. It is hosted on our own servers: no statistics are passed to any third party.

The data collected is limited to pages viewed, referring page, device type and approximate country. It does not allow you to be identified personally.

Server logs

Like any website, our server automatically records incoming requests: IP address, date, page requested and browser used. These logs serve only the technical operation and security of the site, and are purged regularly.

Your rights

Under the General Data Protection Regulation you have rights of access, rectification, erasure and objection regarding data about you. As we collect no personal data, such requests concern in practice the technical logs and audience measurement.

To exercise these rights, or for any question about this policy, a request may be addressed to the site's publisher.

Changes

This policy may be updated to reflect technical or regulatory developments. The date of the latest revision appears below.
