We use the Mailchimp service as a newsletter management tool. We collect your surname, first name, zip code (optional) and e-mail address via the registration form. This personal data is stored on Mailchimp servers in the USA.

At our request, and in accordance with your registration, Mailchimp will send you the newsletters we write. These newsletters contain a cookie.

This data is used by Mailchimp to display opening statistics for our newsletters in our dashboard, and to improve the efficiency of the service provided.

This is the privacy statement of Intuit Mailchimp’s parent company.

Intuit is one of the US companies that meet the criteria established by the EU-US DPF (Data Privacy Framework), formerly the EU-US Privacy Shield. The UK extension of the EU-US DPF and the Swiss-US DPF have been developed by the US Department of Commerce and the European Commission, the UK government and the Swiss federal administration respectively, to provide US organizations with reliable mechanisms for transfers of Personal Data to the US from the European Union, the UK and Switzerland, while ensuring that data protection complies with EU, UK and Swiss legislation.

As far as EU residents are concerned, here is a adendum on data processing which guarantees that Mailchimp will not pass on data to third parties. See in particular point 6: International transfers. The EU as understood by Mailchimp includes the EEA, the UK and Switzerland.
