Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 30, 2026.
This Privacy Policy describes how Philippe Boissard (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use philippeb.pro (the “Site”). We respect your privacy and only collect information that is needed to operate the Site and serve you better content.
Information we collect
Information you provide directly. If you subscribe to the newsletter, leave a comment, or contact us, we collect the email address, name, and any message text you choose to share. Comments may be retained indefinitely as part of the public discussion thread.
Information collected automatically. When you visit the Site, we (or third-party services we use) automatically collect standard log data: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, and time stamps. This is used for security, debugging, and aggregate analytics.
Cookies and similar technologies. The Site uses cookies for essential functionality (logged-in sessions, comment author memory), analytics (Google Site Kit / Google Analytics, if enabled), and affiliate referral tracking. See the Cookies Policy for details and how to disable them.
How we use information
We use the information we collect to operate and maintain the Site, send the newsletter (only if you opted in), respond to inquiries, comply with legal obligations, and produce aggregate analytics about how the Site is used. We do not sell your personal information.
Affiliate relationships
The Site contains affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link and complete a purchase, we may receive a commission. The affiliate network sets a tracking cookie that allows attribution of the purchase to this Site. We do not receive your payment details, only the fact that a referral converted. See the Cookies Policy for details.
Third-party services
The Site may embed third-party content (YouTube videos, social embeds) and use third-party services (Google Site Kit, newsletter platform). These services have their own privacy policies and may collect information independently when their content loads in your browser. We do not control their data practices.
Data retention
Newsletter subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe. Comment data is retained for as long as the comment thread exists, unless you request deletion. Server logs are typically retained for 30-90 days for security and debugging purposes.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your data, and the right to data portability. To exercise these rights, contact us using the information at the bottom of this page. For users in the EU/UK, we rely on legitimate interest and consent (where required) as legal bases for processing.
Children
The Site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will remove it.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we hold. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be announced on the Site.
