* About this website
|
|
|
|
|
** Introduction
|
|
|
|
|
This is the config website of Lucien “Phundrak” Cartier-Tilet.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This website is made with [[https://orgmode.org/][org-mode]] and [[https://v2.vuepress.vuejs.org/][Vuepress]] and is entirely free
|
|
|
|
|
and open-source. You can find its source code on my Gitea instance
|
|
|
|
|
[[https://labs.phundrak.com/phundrak/config.phundrak.com][here]].
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Where is the website hosted?
|
|
|
|
|
This website is hosted on my private physical server, located in the
|
|
|
|
|
town of Bron in France, near Lyon. All of my websites are also hosted
|
|
|
|
|
on this server, except for [[https://labs.phundrak.com][=labs.phundrak.com=]] and =mail.phundrak.com=
|
|
|
|
|
which are hosted on servers rented to Scaleway and OVH France
|
|
|
|
|
respectively. These servers are also located in France.

** Cookies
|
|
|
|
|
*** What are cookies?
|
|
|
|
|
Cookies are small files a website saves on your computer or mobile
|
2023-12-10 14:09:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
phone when you visit a website. Although not all sites make use of
|
|
|
|
|
them, they are nevertheless extremely common in order to allow
|
2023-09-18 16:45:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
websites to function properly or function properly or more
|
|
|
|
|
efficiently.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This website uses some functional cookies in order to remember your
|
2023-12-10 14:09:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
preferences, such as your preferred language or its colour theme.
|
|
|
|
|
These cookies are not and cannot be used to track you.
|
2023-09-18 16:45:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, as this site is protected by Cloudflare, they may also host
|
|
|
|
|
some cookies to remember, for example, that your browser is safe or to
|
|
|
|
|
record traffic to the site.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** How can I control cookies on my computer?
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't want Cloudflare to record your browsing activity on my
|
2023-12-10 14:09:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
website, a good ad blocker should do the trick. I personally recommend
|
|
|
|
|
[[https://ublockorigin.com/][uBlock Origin]], one of the most effective ad blockers I know of if not
|
2023-09-18 16:45:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
the most effective one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also manually delete cookies from your browser, but given the
|
|
|
|
|
number of browsers out there, it might be quicker for you to look up
|
|
|
|
|
DuckDuckGo, Qwant or Startpage to do this for your current browser (if
|
|
|
|
|
you're worried about cookie usage, I guess you'll want to avoid
|
|
|
|
|
Google).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** What about other methods of tracking users?
|
|
|
|
|
There are other more subtle methods of tracking someone on the
|
|
|
|
|
internet, or even via emails or any web content rendered on the
|
2023-12-10 14:09:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
screen, such as web beacons (minuscule images). It is also possible to
|
|
|
|
|
store Flash cookies or local shared objects.

This site does not use them at all.

|
|

|
|
** Is there targeted advertisement on this website?
|
|
|
|
|
There’s no advertisement to begin with. If you see any, check your
|
|
|
|
|
computer and browser for virus, that is not normal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** How often is this page updated?
|
|
|
|
|
It is updated from time to time to reflect any changes in how my
|
|
|
|
|
website behaves, or if I notice errors on this page (such as typos). I
|
|
|
|
|
might add some user tracking, however don’t worry, Matomo (the service
|
|
|
|
|
I would use) would only track you on this website and this website
|
|
|
|
|
only. Matomo respects the privacy of a website’s users.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
