4. Legal bases
Depending on the processing, it is based on the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures, your consent where required, compliance with a legal obligation, or our legitimate interest in ensuring the security, operation and improvement of our services, provided this does not disproportionately affect your rights and freedoms.
5. Payments – Stripe
Subscription payments are processed by Stripe, in accordance with its own terms and privacy policy. We receive from Stripe only the information needed to manage your subscription, such as customer and subscription identifiers, subscription status, billing dates and payment results. We never receive or store your full card details.

We use MailPoet to manage and send our email communications and La Lettre LTH. The data used includes your email address, subscription status and distribution preferences, solely for the services you have subscribed or consented to.
7. Advertising – Google AdSense
This website may display advertising served by Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s previous visits to this website or other websites.

We do not sell the personal data of our users or subscribers.
9. Retention
Data is kept for a period proportionate to the purposes for which it was collected. Subscription data is kept for the duration of the contractual relationship and then, where necessary, for the periods required by legal, tax or accounting obligations or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. Data used for communications is kept until consent is withdrawn, you unsubscribe, or the applicable retention period expires.
10. Cookies and audience measurement
The website may use cookies or similar technologies needed for its operation, security, the storage of certain choices, audience measurement and advertising. Where the law requires prior consent, the cookies concerned are only placed once consent has been obtained.
