Privacy

You can browse Cookiosity without an account, advertising or audience analytics added by the publisher. The following describes processing related to accessing the site and sending messages to its publisher.

Display pages and secure the site

Cloudflare, the hosting provider, receives technical data to deliver pages and protect the infrastructure, including IP address, request date and time, requested pages and some browser information. This processing provides and secures the site, on the basis of the legitimate interest in ensuring its operation and security.

Cloudflare’s network is international. Technical data may therefore be processed outside the European Union, including in the United States. Its privacy policy describes transfer rules, safeguards and retention periods for the different processing activities. Cookiosity does not guarantee that all data is hosted in France.

Search, theme and tracking technologies

The site’s code adds no advertising cookie or audience measurement tracker. Cookiosity offers no account, comments, registration form or embedded social button. Visual resources and styles are served with the site.

Your light or dark theme preference is kept in your browser’s local storage for future visits. This setting is not sent to the publisher and does not track your browsing. You can remove it through your browser’s site-storage settings.

The browser searches and filters the site catalogue without network requests during filtering. No entered term is sent to an external search engine. However, if you reload or share an address containing a search, those terms appear in the URL requested from the hosting provider.

Depending on the request, the hosting provider may use technical mechanisms strictly necessary for security, distinct from advertising tracking. If you follow an external link, the service you open applies its own rules.

What happens to your message

When you write to contact@cookiosity.com, your address and message content are used to handle your request and reply. The publisher relies on their legitimate interest in managing these exchanges. Avoid sending health information or identification documents that are not needed.

Messages are received by the publisher and the technical providers needed to deliver them. They are neither sold nor used for marketing. They are kept while the request is handled, then for a maximum of twelve months after it closes, except where a legal obligation applies or evidence must be retained for a dispute. This Cookiosity rule does not set the hosting provider’s technical log retention period.

Ask to exercise your rights

For data processed by the publisher, you may request access, rectification, erasure or restriction and object to processing under the conditions laid down by applicable regulations. Explain your request to contact@cookiosity.com. If there is doubt about your identity, proportionate verification may be necessary.

Your contact for these requests is the non-professional publisher. For processing for which Cloudflare acts as a separate controller, consult the contacts and rights procedures in its policy. You may also lodge a complaint with the French data protection authority, CNIL, at cnil.fr.
