Data collected: date and time of opening, IP address, device type and email client, linked to your email address.
Legal basis: this tracking is based on your consent (Article 82 of the French Data Protection Act), obtained separately from your newsletter subscription. Your refusal has no effect on your receipt of the newsletter.
Subscribers who registered before 14 April 2026: you have been informed of this system by email and may opt out at any time.
Withdrawal or objection: via the link ‘I wish to object to the tracking of my emails’ at the bottom of each newsletter, or by email to info@tourainevaldeloire.com. The pixel will then be deactivated for subsequent mailings.
