We use Matomo, an analytics tool installed on our own hosting (OVH, in France). No data is passed on to any third party.
Matomo is configured without cookies and IP addresses are truncated (the last two bytes are masked) before being stored. The resulting statistics are anonymous and are only used to understand and improve how the website is used. In line with the guidelines of the French data protection authority (CNIL), this audience measurement does not require your consent; raw data is kept for no more than 25 months.
Cookies
This website sets no advertising or analytics cookies. Only strictly necessary technical cookies are used by the people who update the website when they log in to its administration area.
This is why no consent banner is shown to you.
