Privacy

This page is about the early-access form on this site, and nothing else. It is short because there is very little to describe.

Who is responsible

Pascal Lauener, who builds Pergalino. Write to privacy@pergalino.ch about anything on this page.

What happens to your address

It is put in an email and sent to Pascal, and that is the whole mechanism. There is no database. Nothing about you is written to any store this site controls: your address exists in his mailbox, the way it would if you had simply written to him, and nowhere else.

The email carries your address, the date and time, a two-letter country code derived from your connection, and a one-word tag saying which button on the page you used. That is all of it.

Why

To decide whether to give you access to a preview, and to write to you about it. The basis is your consent, given by submitting the form. You can withdraw it by replying to say so, at which point the message is deleted.

What is not stored

• Your IP address.
• Anything about your browser or device.
• The page you came from.
• Cookies. This site sets none at all, of any kind, and carries no analytics script. Visitor numbers come from the host's own traffic statistics, which need no code on the page.

What cannot be claimed

Vercel serves this site and runs the form's endpoint, and records connections, IP address included, in its own logs under its own retention, the way every web host does. Resend carries the email. Neither is something we have a copy of or read. Saying otherwise would be the one false sentence on this page.

The spam check

The form is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile. Cloudflare states that it is designed not to identify individual visitors and not to track people across sites; their own description is at cloudflare.com, and it is more authoritative than a paraphrase here would be.

Who else sees it

Nobody. The address is not shared, not sold, not put on a mailing list, and not sent to any other mailing service. The one exception is the thing you asked for: if you are approved, the address is typed into the Google Cloud console as a test user for the Pergalino OAuth application, because that is what actually grants you access. Google's handling of it is then Google's own.

How long

Until you have been invited and have signed in, or until you ask for it to be deleted, or twelve months from the day you submitted it, whichever comes first. In practice that means one email in one mailbox, deleted when it has been dealt with.

Your rights

Ask what is stored about you, correct it, or have it deleted. One email, no form and no verification hoop. Deletion is immediate and total: there is one message and it is removed.

Changes
