Privacy Policy
This policy describes how iaLocale processes your personal data when you use the site (the "Site"). We collect only the data strictly necessary: no profiling, no tracking, no data sold to third parties. The content of the Site, including this page, is generated with artificial intelligence, with minimal, selective human review: errors are possible and information must be verified against official sources.
Data controller
The data controller is iaLocale. For any privacy question, write to us at info@ialocale.ch.
What data we collect
We collect only the data strictly necessary to provide the services you request. We do not collect data from minors and we do not use data for advertising or profiling.
1. Newsletter subscription
When you subscribe to the newsletter, we store: your email address, your preferred language, the market of the domain you signed up on, a one-way hash (SHA-256) of the IP address (anti-abuse measure and proof of consent), and a consent note. The raw IP is never stored. Legal basis: your consent (double opt-in: the newsletter only starts after you confirm the email link; the link expires after 48 hours). You can unsubscribe in one click via the link in every email or the preferences page, or by writing to info@ialocale.ch; the data is removed within a few days.
2. Account (optional)
If you create an account, we store: your email address, your display name, and a hashed copy of your password. The data is managed by the authentication service (Supabase/GoTrue) on our server. Legal basis: performance of the service contract.
3. Traffic analytics
The Site uses self-hosted traffic analytics (Plausible, hosted on our own servers): no cookies, no pixels, no advertising, and no IP address is stored. Visits are recorded only in aggregate form (page, browser, country) and are used exclusively to measure and improve the Site. The data is never sold, shared with third parties, or cross-referenced with other data. You can object to the processing.
4. Cookies and local storage
We use only the strictly necessary cookies to keep your login session when you are authenticated. We do not use non-essential cookies. Some preferences (for example the light/dark theme) are stored in your browser (localStorage) and never sent to our servers.
5. Security
Data always travels over HTTPS. Passwords are stored only as hashes. The consent IP address is stored only as a one-way hash. Database access is restricted to authorized staff.
6. Your rights
You have the right to access your data, to request its rectification or erasure, to restrict or object to its processing, and to receive it in a readable format (portability). You can withdraw your consent at any time. To exercise your rights, write to us at info@ialocale.ch: we will respond within 30 days.
7. Data retention
Newsletter data is kept until you unsubscribe; account data until the account is deleted. The data is not used for other purposes.
8. Changes
We may update this policy when the services or the legal requirements change. The date at the top of the page indicates the latest revision.
