Privacy
J'arrose ? asks for no account, no email address and no name. The website works without you having to say who you are.
Data controller
Paul-Emile Watelot, publisher of the website (see the legal notice), who can be reached at [email protected].
What the website processes
- Your location, only if you click "Locate me" and accept your browser's request. It is sent to our server to find your commune, then forgotten: we do not store it anywhere.
- Your IP address, kept in memory for one minute by our server to limit the number of requests per visitor and protect the website against abuse. Our server keeps no log of visits.
- The type of planting chosen (lawn, vegetable garden…) on a commune page, kept in your browser's storage to offer it to you next time. It never leaves your device.
- Rain forecasts are requested from MET Norway by our server, for the commune shown: your IP address is not sent to MET Norway.
- Visit statistics, kept by Cloudflare Web Analytics: a small script counts page views and measures how long pages take to load. It sets no cookie, stores nothing in your browser and does not follow you from one website to another. It sends the page address (without its parameters) and the website you came from; Cloudflare works out your country (from your IP address) and the type of device, browser and operating system. We only see totals, for six months.
This processing is based on the publisher's legitimate interest in running the website, protecting it and measuring its audience (article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR).
Service providers
- Hetzner Online GmbH (Germany) hosts the server and the database.
- Cloudflare, Inc. (United States) carries requests to our server, caches the website's files and keeps its visit statistics. It sees your IP address and the address of the pages requested, including the location sent by "Locate me", and may keep them in its own logs under its privacy policy. This transfer to the United States is covered by Cloudflare's certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
Advertising
The website shows no ads for now and sets no advertising cookie. If this changes, this page will say so, and a message will ask for your consent before any advertising cookie.
Your rights
You can ask to access, correct or erase data about you, or object to its processing, by writing to [email protected]. If you believe your rights are not respected, you can complain to the CNIL, the French data protection authority.
