8. Data protection on the website and mobile applications

No personal data is recorded when accessing the website nosgestesclimat.ch. The web server only logs non-personal usage data that highlights trends. This site uses ELK (Elastic Logstash Kibana), a web analytics system installed by GRID-Geneva (https://unepgrid.ch). The data generated by the web server logs regarding your use of the site (including your IP address) will be transmitted and stored on servers located in Geneva. GRID-Geneva will use this information to evaluate your use of the site, compile reports on site activity for the project partners of nosgestesclimat.ch, namely the City of Geneva, the Canton of Geneva, and 2050Today. By using this website, you expressly consent to the processing of your access data under the conditions and for the analytical purposes described above. This data is used solely for this purpose and is not shared with third parties.

The simulation and calculations are performed in your web browser, so your answers to the questions remain with you, and we do not collect any of them. However, ADEME, which manages the calculator section, tracks some information about your use of this simulator, such as the pages viewed and the time spent, solely for the purpose of improving it. Specifically, the final simulation page address is tracked, which includes your total footprint and its breakdown into major categories (transport, housing, etc.). ADEME is committed to respecting the privacy protection rules for users of its website and services. All personal data processing implemented within the accessible services complies with the applicable regulations regarding personal data protection, particularly the provisions of the amended French Data Protection Act of January 6, 1978, and the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679), referred to as 'GRDP.'

GRID-Geneva (https://unepgrid.ch) uses ELK on some of its sites as an audience analysis tool. The statistical reports generated by this tool help improve the quality of its websites. They do not contain any information that violates privacy. In simple terms, ELK is an advanced page counter. When a user views a page on GRID-Geneva's websites, the statistics tool records the page view. The aggregation of all this visit information provides valuable insights into the most popular content among users and the navigation paths within our sites. Based on this data, the editorial teams of websites developed or maintained by GRID-Geneva can guide content updates or reorganize existing pages to better align with visitors' practices and needs. Identifying traffic spikes also helps optimize server performance to ensure fast page loading for our visitors under all circumstances.

9. Security

The site is protected by an electronic certificate, typically represented by a padlock in most browsers. This protection contributes to the confidentiality of exchanges. Under no circumstances will the services associated with the platform send emails requesting the entry of personal information.
