8. Cookies and audience measurement

The site uses a consent management module to allow you to accept, refuse or customise the use of cookies and similar technologies.

The site offers audience measurement via Matomo, hosted on a controlled infrastructure. This measurement remains disabled until you have made an explicit choice.

If you accept it, Matomo helps us understand the most visited pages, identify any friction points and improve the site experience.

Depending on the settings chosen, this measurement may fall under:

  • a consent-exempt framework, where its use is strictly limited to audience measurement under applicable conditions;
  • a regime requiring the user's prior consent, if those conditions are not met or if other trackers are used.

The site also uses what is necessary for its operation and for storing your consent choices.

For more information, please visit the Cookies page or use the "Manage cookies" link on the site.

9. Mandatory or optional data

Data identified as required in forms is mandatory in order to process your request correctly.

Failure to provide it may make it impossible to respond to or act on your request.

All other information is optional.

  • right of access;
  • right of rectification;
  • right of erasure;
  • right to restriction of processing;
  • right to object;
  • right to data portability where applicable;
  • right to withdraw your consent at any time where processing is based on consent.

To exercise your rights, please write to: contact@echoforge.fr

You may also lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority if you believe your rights are not being respected.
