Privacy policy
This page describes the limited amount of personal data involved when you browse this site.
Data controller
- Controller
- Thomas Stephan
- Website
- tstephan.fr
The short version
- Public pages
- There is no account, contact form, newsletter or audience analytics on the public site. I do not build an advertising profile from your visit.
- Contact
- If you email me, the message is handled by your email provider and mine—not by this website.
What the server sees
- Technical logs
- Like most web servers, the hosting infrastructure may record an IP address, request date and time, requested URL, response status and browser information.
- Why
- These logs are used only to keep the site available, investigate errors and detect abuse. The legal basis is my legitimate interest in operating and securing the site.
- Who can access them
- Access is limited to me and, when technically necessary, the hosting provider. They are not sold or used for advertising.
- Retention
- Routine server logs are kept only for the period needed for operations and security, then deleted or rotated. A relevant extract may be kept longer when needed to investigate an incident or meet a legal obligation.
Cookies and local storage
- Theme preference
- Your light or dark theme choice is stored locally in your browser. It is not sent to an analytics or advertising service.
- Admin session
- The private administration area uses one strictly necessary, HttpOnly session cookie. It expires after eight hours and is not used to track public visitors.
- Tracking
- There are currently no advertising cookies, third-party analytics or embedded social-media trackers, so no consent banner is shown.
Your rights
- Your choices
- Where the GDPR applies, you may ask for access, correction, deletion or restriction of your personal data, or object to processing based on legitimate interest.
- Contact
- Email tstephan00@outlook.com. I may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
- Complaint
- You can also lodge a complaint with the CNIL, the French data-protection authority.
If the site changes
I'll update this page before adding a public form, analytics, third-party embeds or any other feature that changes how visitor data is handled.
