Data Collected

We collect only the personal data necessary for the following purposes:

  • Statistical analysis of website navigation (via Google Analytics)
  • Responding to requests submitted through our contact forms
  • Technical operation of the website (session cookies, user preferences)

Collected data may include: IP address, browser, operating system, language, pages visited, visit duration, and data entered in forms.

Opening and using a Lumiscaphe user account involves the collection of additional personal data. The terms of use for these accounts are detailed in our User Account Terms of Use.

Legal Basis for Processing

Processing is based on:

  • the user’s prior consent (for non-essential cookies);
  • the legitimate interest of Lumiscaphe in ensuring the proper functioning of the website and measuring its audience;
  • the performance of a request or contract (contact form).

Retention Period

Personal data is retained only for the time necessary for the purposes for which it was collected:

  • Navigation data (Google Analytics): 14 months
  • Form data: processing time + 3 years maximum
  • Cookies: see the dedicated section

Data related to Lumiscaphe user accounts is retained as long as the account is active. You may request the deletion of your account and associated data at any time, in accordance with your GDPR rights. The terms of use for these accounts are detailed in our User Account Terms of Use.

Data Recipients

Data is processed solely by Lumiscaphe’s internal services and its technical subcontractors (hosting, audience analysis). No transfer or sale of personal data is made to unauthorized third parties.

We use Google reCAPTCHA on our forms (contact, registration, login, etc.) to combat bots and automated abuse. This service may collect technical and behavioral information (IP address, mouse movements, clicks, etc.) and transmit it to Google LLC in the United States. Google acts as a data processor and processes this data on our behalf, on the basis of our legitimate interest in securing our forms against automated abuse.

Transfers Outside the European Union

Some processing may involve a transfer of data to third countries (notably via Google Analytics). In such cases, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place (standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, security measures).

The use of Google’s reCAPTCHA service to secure our forms (login, registration, contact) may also result in data transfers to the United States. These transfers are governed by appropriate legal mechanisms.
