  • Manage necessary follow-up communication

Providing a name, email address, subject, and message may be necessary for Eureka to understand and respond to a request.

Submitting a tutorial request does not create a contractual relationship and does not guarantee publication.

Email Processing

Messages sent to Eureka may be processed through Google’s Gmail service.

This means that names, email addresses, messages, and attachments may be stored or processed through Google’s systems according to Google’s applicable privacy and security terms.

Hosting and Technical Services

The website is hosted by Hostinger.

Hostinger may process technical data, including Internet Protocol addresses, server logs, diagnostic information, and security information, as necessary to host, deliver, and protect the website.

Google Services

Eureka uses or may use services provided by Google.

Google Search Console

Google Search Console may provide aggregated information about how Eureka appears in Google Search, including search queries, impressions, clicks, and indexing information.

Google Analytics

When enabled and where permitted, Google Analytics may collect information about how visitors use the website.

Analytics technologies may process device, browser, approximate location, page-view, interaction, and cookie information.

Where legally required, Google Analytics will not be activated until the visitor has provided consent.

Google AdSense

Eureka may use Google AdSense to display and measure advertisements.

Google and its advertising partners may use cookies, local storage, device information, identifiers, Internet Protocol addresses, browsing information, and advertising interaction data.

Where legally required, advertising technologies will be controlled through a consent-management platform. Visitors may be offered choices regarding personalized advertising, non-personalized advertising, measurement, and related purposes.

The specific advertising partners and purposes may be displayed in the website’s consent interface.

Embedded YouTube Videos

Some tutorials may include videos embedded from YouTube.

YouTube is operated by Google and may process information about your device, browser, Internet Protocol address, interactions, and Google account when a video is loaded or played.

Where legally required, embedded YouTube content should remain blocked until the visitor consents to the relevant cookies or third-party content.

You may also be able to open the video directly on YouTube, where Google’s own terms and privacy policies apply.

Social-Media Links and Features

Eureka may include links or buttons leading to third-party social-media platforms.

A simple external link does not normally send information to the platform until it is selected. However, embedded widgets or sharing tools may process data when they are loaded or used.

Third-party platforms process personal data according to their own privacy policies.

Affiliate Links

Some pages may contain affiliate links.

When you select an affiliate link, you are redirected to an external website. The merchant, affiliate network, or service provider may collect information and use cookies or similar technologies according to its own privacy and cookie policies.

Eureka may receive information confirming that a qualifying action or purchase occurred. The information provided to Eureka is generally aggregated or associated with an affiliate transaction identifier rather than being used to directly identify the visitor.

  • The operator of Eureka
  • Hostinger, as hosting provider
  • Google, including Gmail, YouTube, Analytics, and AdSense, where applicable
  • Consent-management and security providers
  • Affiliate networks and merchants
  • Technical providers necessary to operate the website
  • Public authorities when disclosure is legally required

Some service providers may process data outside France or the European Economic Area.

Where required, such transfers may rely on:

  • An adequacy decision
  • Standard Contractual Clauses
  • Additional technical or organizational safeguards
  • Another lawful transfer mechanism

Visitors should also consult the privacy policies of relevant third-party providers for information about their transfer practices.

Data Retention

Contact messages, tutorial requests, and related attachments are retained only for as long as necessary to respond and manage any related follow-up, and ordinarily for no longer than 12 months.

Information may be retained for longer when necessary to:

  • Comply with a legal obligation
  • Resolve a dispute
  • Establish or defend a legal claim
  • Investigate fraud, abuse, or security incidents

Technical and security logs are retained according to the periods reasonably necessary for website operation, troubleshooting, and protection, including the retention settings applied by the hosting provider.
