Privacy & Cookies

This is the personal website of the artist Telesco Valentin. For any question about this policy or your data, write to me at telesco210377@gmail.com.

There are no accounts, forms, newsletters or payments on this website, and no advertising tools. I do not build profiles, and I never sell data.

You can reach me by e-mail, phone, WhatsApp or social media. When you do, I receive the details you choose to send — for example your name, e-mail address or phone number, and your message. I use them only to reply to you and to talk about the works you are interested in.

This is based on my legitimate interest in answering your request, or on steps taken at your request before a possible purchase (Article 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR). I keep these conversations only as long as needed, and no longer than 3 years after our last contact, unless the law requires me to keep them longer.

These messages pass through the services you choose to use — Google (Gmail), WhatsApp, Meta (Instagram, Facebook) or TikTok — under their own privacy policies.

Like any website, the server receives the technical information needed to deliver pages, such as your IP address, browser type and the page requested. The hosting provider may keep it briefly in server logs for security and to keep the site running; it is not used to identify you.

Fonts are loaded from Bunny Fonts (bunny.net), a European service that does not log or track visitors.

If you accept statistics cookies, I use Google Analytics 4, a service of Google Ireland Limited, to understand how the website is used — for example which pages are visited, how long visits last, the type of device and browser, and the approximate country or city. I only look at aggregate statistics and do not use them to identify you.

Google Analytics only loads after you click “Accept” in the cookie banner; if you refuse or make no choice, it is not loaded and no statistics cookie is set. The legal basis is your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw it at any time via the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page.

Google processes this data on my behalf, as a processor. Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. Data may be transferred to Google LLC in the United States, which is certified under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. Data about individual visits is kept for 2 months, then deleted; only aggregate statistics remain. More information: policies.google.com/privacy.

This website uses two kinds of cookies. Strictly necessary cookies keep it working; they do not track you and, under the ePrivacy rules, do not require your consent:

• telesco-session — keeps your browsing session secure; deleted after 120 minutes of inactivity.
• XSRF-TOKEN — protects against cross-site request forgery; deleted after 120 minutes.

Statistics cookies are set by Google Analytics only if you accept them:

• _ga — distinguishes visitors so that visits can be counted; expires after 2 years.
• _ga_* — keeps track of your current visit; expires after 2 years.

I do not use advertising or social media cookies. Your choice in the cookie banner is remembered in your browser’s local storage, not in a cookie. You can change it at any time via the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of the page, or delete cookies in your browser settings; the website will keep working.

Under the GDPR you can ask to access, correct or delete the personal data I hold about you, to restrict or object to its use, and to receive a copy of it. Write to telesco210377@gmail.com and I will reply within one month. If you believe your data is not handled properly, you can lodge a complaint with the CNIL (www.cnil.fr) or with the data protection authority in your country.

I may update this policy when the website changes. The date at the top of the page shows the latest version.
