2. Anonymous statistics
We collect anonymous statistics on page visits in order to measure the tool’s success and optimize its operation. This data does not identify you personally and is used exclusively for global analysis purposes (e.g. number of visitors per day).
3. Tournament data management
In the absence of a user account, tournament data is stored exclusively in your browser’s local cache. No tournament data is stored on our servers without first creating a user account. You can create a free user account to save up to three tournaments on our servers by going to the “My account” page.
Data storage without a user account:
- Tournament data is stored locally in your browser’s cache. How long this data is stored depends on your device and browser settings. Any deletion of the cache, reset or modification of the browser may result in loss of data.
- You can delete tournament data at any time by clicking on “New tournament” or by clearing your browser’s cache.
- Data stored locally in your browser cannot be shared publicly.
Data storage with user account :
- Tournament data is stored on our servers, with a limit of three tournaments per user account. This data can be accessed from any browser, provided you log in to your account.
- You can delete your tournaments with one click from the tournament list or by accessing the “My data” section of your user account.
- LaRondeSuisse.com does not share any tournament data without your explicit consent. If you choose to share a tournament, you can make it accessible via a secure link. It is your responsibility to ensure that participants have given their consent to this sharing. You may revoke the sharing at any time. Please note that sharing a tournament only allows you to view its progress, and does not allow you to modify any data.
4. Account deletion and data retention
You can request deletion of your account at any time from your customer area. This action will result in the deletion of all data associated with your account, including any tournaments you have created or participated in, from the active databases.
Backups containing your data may be stored passively for up to 30 days. These backups are used exclusively to restore the service in the event of a serious technical incident. After this period, all your data will be automatically and permanently deleted from all our systems, including backups.
5. Newsletter
When you subscribe to our newsletter, we store your e-mail address for a maximum of three years. Your data will never be shared with third parties. We use it exclusively to send you our newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking on the “Unsubscribe” link in each newsletter, or directly from your customer area.
If you have any questions about your data, please do not hesitate to contact us.
