What data do I collect?

I do not collect any data from you when you visit my website. In particular, I do not collect the following data: personal identification information (name, email address, phone number, etc.).

I do not collect any data from you through my website. On the website itself, I do not collect data and process data, as there is no online registration or order for my services, no voluntary survey or feedback, and no browser cookies when you view or use my website.

If you were to send me an email to the contact address mentioned on the website, you would directly provide me any data and meta-data that would be in your email, which includes personal identification information, such as your name, email address, and any other information you choose to share in your email. This information will be stored on my email server, in the form of your initial email and any subsequent email exchange we may have. If I record your contact information in my contact list (such as your name, email address, phone number, organisation, and job title), or in my online calendar and tasks, this will also be stored on my email server. 

How will I use your data?

Since I do not record have any data about you from my website, there is nothing to store.

 

As for data I collect if you send me an email, I securely store your data via my email provider, France-based professional service Gandi. I have set up security precautions to keep this data safe, including strong passwords and two-factor authentication.

This data is also stored locally on my computer and on my smartphone. I have set up security precautions to keep this data safe, including strong passwords and strong encryption.

Lastly, I reguarly back up my data, including data I collect if you send me an email. My back-ups are stored locally on hard drives, with strong encryption and passwords, and on a dedicated cloud server, with strong encryption, passwords and two-factor authentication.

My two-factor authentication system is itself protected by password.

 

I will keep data collected from emails you send me without time limitation unless you ask me to delete your personal identification data. If you ask me to delete such data, I will promptly delete your contact record from the contact list on my email server, so that it is not available to me any more going forward. Please note that I will be unable to delete past records and back-ups that hold your personal identification data. However, I will make sure to delete your personal identification data from my server-based contact list at the time, so that your data will not be on my email server any more.

I will not send you information about my services. I might send you an email if I think I have information or ideas that may be of interest to you alone or to us both, as part of my professional networking and collaborations. You may always opt out of this, and you have the right at any time to stop me from contacting you for such purposes. If you no longer wish to be contacted for such purposes, please send me an email at contact@ecombaz.org.

  • The right to access – You have the right to request me for copies of your personal data. If this is quick for me to do, I will do so for free.

Cookies are text files placed on your computer to collect standard Internet log information and visitor behavior information. For further information, visit allaboutcookies.org.

My website does not use cookies or similar technology, so when you visit my website, there is no such automatic collection of information.

 

- How do I use cookies? 

My website does not use cookies, so none of the ways websites typically use cookies to improve your experience applies, including keeping you signed in, or understanding how you use my website.

 

- What types of cookies do I use? 

There are a number of different types of cookies, and my website uses none of them:

  • Functionality – cookies that are used so that websites recognise you on a website and remember your previously selected preferences. These could include what language you prefer and location you are in. A mix of first-party and third-party cookies are typically used. Again, my website does not use any kind of cookies.
  • Advertising – cookies that are used to collect information about your visit to a website, the content you viewed, the links you followed and information about your browser, device, and your IP address. Organisations sometimes share some limited aspects of this data, or all of it, with third parties for advertising purposes, or they may share online data collected through cookies with their advertising partners. This means that when you visit another website, you may be shown advertising based on your browsing patterns on a previous website. Again, my website does not use any kind of cookies.

You can set your browser not to accept cookies. If you need help, the allaboutcookies.org website tells you how to remove cookies from your browser. However, on websites that use cookies,  some features might not function as a result.
