Data Collected
We only collect data strictly necessary to provide our services:
Sign in with Google
Our site offers account creation and login via your Google account. This feature is activated only by an explicit action on your part (clicking the "Sign in with Google" or "Sign up with Google" button). When you use it, Google transmits to us:
This information is used exclusively to create your account or identify you when you log in. No data is shared with Google for advertising or profiling purposes.
Processing by Google is governed by its privacy policy and the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, which regulate data transfers to the United States.
You can revoke Data'Scout's access to your Google account at any time from your Google settings.

You can exercise these rights at any time by writing to contact@datascout.pro. A response will be provided within 30 days.
Security
Your data is stored on secure servers. We apply technical (encryption, authentication) and organizational measures to guarantee their confidentiality and integrity.
Cookies and Tracking
Our site sets no advertising cookies, no tracking cookies and no third-party trackers. The only cookie we set remembers the language you selected. Your session is kept in your browser's local storage and disappears when you log out.
Audience measurement is carried out by our own servers, with no third-party tool. For each page viewed, we record the address of the page, the device type (computer, mobile, app) and the date. To tell two visitors apart without identifying you, we compute a one-way technical fingerprint from your IP address and your browser: it changes every day, cannot be traced back to you and is used for counting only. Neither your IP address nor your browser is kept. These measurements are deleted after 13 months. We also record the site you arrived from, as well as simple actions taken on the platform, such as a page opened or a search run. What you type is never kept.
If you are logged in, these measurements are linked to your account, in order to provide the service and to understand which features are used. When you delete your account, they are erased or permanently detached from your identity. They also tell us when to send you a guidance email, for example a few days after you sign up if you haven't come back. You can turn these emails off in My account or with the link included in each one.
This measurement is limited to our own pages, sets no cookie, does not follow you from one site to another and serves neither advertising nor profiling: no consent banner is necessary. You may nonetheless object to it by writing to contact@datascout.pro.
Modifications
This policy may be updated at any time. You will be informed of any significant changes via the site or email.
Complaints
If you believe your rights are not being respected, you can contact the relevant data protection authority or send us a complaint at the aforementioned address.
