* Privacy

** 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
|
||
phone when you visit a website. Although not all sites make use of
|
||
them, they are nevertheless extremely common in order to allow
|
||
websites to function properly or function properly or more
|
||
efficiently.
|
||
|
||
This website uses some functional cookies in order to remember your
|
||
preferences, such as your preferred language or its colour theme.
|
||
These cookies are not and cannot be used to track you.
|
||
|
||
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
|
||
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
|
||
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
|
||
screen, such as web beacons (minuscule, invisible images). It is also
|
||
possible to store Flash cookies or local shared objects.
|
||
|
||
*** But is there any tracking at all on this website?
|
||
Well, there is, but it absolutely respects your privacy. I use my own
|
||
instance of [[https://umami.is][Umami]] which is an analytics service that is fully GDPR and
|
||
CCPA compliant. In short, when you visit a web page, some data get
|
||
sent to my service, but nothing that can identify you. If you come
|
||
back an hour later, I won’t have any indication that you are the same
|
||
person.
|
||
|
||
If you still worry about your privacy, you have two options:
|
||
- Activate the Do Not Track setting of your browser (which Umami will
|
||
honour)
|
||
- Block the domain =umami.phundrak.com= in uBlock Origin (the only
|
||
ad blocker I will ever trust)
|
||
|
||
** Is there targeted advertisement on this website?
|
||
There’s no advertisement to begin with, and never will be. If you see
|
||
any, check your computer and browser for virus, that is not normal. If
|
||
it indeed comes from my website, it means it has been hacked. If you
|
||
can see in this website’s repository that I myself added ads, it means
|
||
that I either lost my morals, or that I have been kidnapped and this
|
||
is a cry for help.
|
||
|
||
** 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 have other questions
|
||
And I have the answers! I’ll be more than happy to chat with you by
|
||
email, feel free to send me one at [[mailto:lucien@phundrak.com][lucien@phundrak.com]].
