Privacy

Courtesy translation; the French version prevails.

This site

This site is static: it uses no cookies, no trackers and no analytics, and collects no personal data. There is no account. Two functions use a form or a service provider: the improvement suggestion and the purchase, described below.

Like any host, GitHub (GitHub Pages) may record technical connection data, including your IP address, when you visit the site or download the archive. This processing is governed by its own privacy policy. Habeas Corpus has no access to it and does not use it.

The Sine Nomine application

Sine Nomine processes your files only on your computer and sends no data over the Internet. The Internet is used only during installation (and, for an evaluation version with a key, to activate it: see below), to download the components and the detection models: none of your documents is transmitted at that point. If you place Sine Nomine's folders or your files in a synchronisation service (Google Drive, OneDrive…), that service transmits and stores them under its own terms.

Activating an evaluation version with an access key

Sine Nomine requires an access key (evaluation version or commercial version). The key is activated during installation, or when you enter a new key in the application (for example to renew a licence), over an Internet connection. The program then contacts Habeas Corpus's activation server and sends it:

• the access key you entered;
• a random installation identifier, generated on your computer (unrelated to your hardware, your name or your files);
• the Sine Nomine version and the interface language.

The server may also keep a label that Habeas Corpus attaches to the key when it is sold (for example the client organisation's name or an order reference).

The server records the date of activation and, in its technical logs, the IP address of the connection. No document, no name and no content of your files is ever transmitted.

Purposes and legal basis: checking the key, limiting the number of installations per key and setting the period of use; performance of the evaluation licence and the publisher's legitimate interest in preventing fraudulent use of keys.
Data controller: Habeas Corpus (contact@sinenomine.app).
Retention: for the key's validity period, then 12 months after the end of the last activated installation, before deletion (for a lifetime licence: for as long as the licence is valid); technical logs (IP addresses): 30 days, then automatic deletion.
Activation server hosting: OVH SAS (OVHcloud), France.

Once the key is activated, Sine Nomine works offline: the period of use is checked locally, with no further connection.

Requesting or buying a key

Messages sent to contact@sinenomine.app to request or buy a key are processed to issue the key and follow up the request; they are kept as long as needed for that follow-up, then in line with the applicable accounting and legal obligations.

Improvement suggestions

The suggestion form collects the category, your description and, if you wish, an email address so that we can reply. Do not enter any confidential data in it. Suggestions remain private (they are not published); the email address is used only to reply to you and is kept for the duration of that follow-up. Data controller: Habeas Corpus. The form is protected against automated submissions (honeypot field, minimum delay, limit on submissions per IP address).

Online purchase

When you buy, your email address, billing address and payment data are processed by our payment provider, Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. (Ireland), under its privacy policy; the publisher does not receive your card number. Habeas Corpus keeps the order data (reference, email address, date, amount, key issued) to issue the licence, answer your requests and meet its accounting and legal obligations. The access key is emailed to you from Habeas Corpus's mailbox hosted by OVH (France), after the payment has been verified.

"Pay with bitcoin" button

Bitcoin payment is not available yet. To gauge interest, a click on this button increments an anonymous counter: once a day per visitor, with no cookie and nothing stored on your device. Your IP address is not kept: it is held only in memory, as an irreversible fingerprint, and erased every day; only the number of clicks per day is recorded. A report of this number is sent to the publisher every week when it is not zero.

Your rights

You may ask for access to, rectification, erasure, restriction or portability of your data, and object to its processing, by writing to contact@sinenomine.app. You may also lodge a complaint with the CNIL, the French data protection authority (www.cnil.fr/en).
