Intellectual property

Everything on this site, in particular the CoteCote trade mark, the logo, the texts, the technical illustrations and the code, is protected by intellectual property law and remains the property of the publisher or of its partners. Any reproduction, representation or adaptation, in whole or in part, without prior written permission, is prohibited.

The technical drawings shown by way of illustration are fictitious and reproduce no customer drawing.

Personal data

The form on the contact page transmits nothing to this site: it opens the visitor's own mail client with a message ready to send. Messages received at contact@cote-cote.com are processed by the publisher for the sole purpose of answering the request.

Account creation and sign-in are handled by our licence management provider, which stores the holder's email address and password together with the list of workstations attached to their licences. This data serves only to open the software and to administer licences. It is neither resold nor used for advertising.

The data controller is Gaël Belan, publisher of the site. Data is processed to perform the contract (account, licences, payment, support), to meet accounting and tax obligations (invoices), and, on the basis of the publisher's legitimate interest, to keep business customers informed of changes to the software; every such message includes a way to unsubscribe.

It is entrusted only to the providers needed for the service: Keygen LLC (accounts and licences, United States), Stripe Payments Europe (card payment, Ireland), Odoo SA (invoicing, support and emails, Belgium), OVH SAS (email, France) and Vercel Inc. (website hosting, United States). Transfers to Keygen and Vercel, based in the United States, are covered by the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

Account data is kept for the duration of the business relationship, then for three years from the last contact. Invoices and accounting records are kept for ten years, as required by the French Commercial Code. Messages received are kept for three years from the last exchange.

Under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and the French Data Protection Act, you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection and portability, which may be exercised at contact@cote-cote.com. You may lodge a complaint with the CNIL, the French data protection authority.

Cookies and audience measurement

This site sets no advertising or analytics cookie. The only cookies set are strictly necessary to maintain the session of a visitor signed in to their account: they expire with the session and serve no other purpose. The light or dark theme choice is stored in the browser's local storage, on the visitor's machine only, and is transmitted to no one.

Traffic is measured with Vercel Web Analytics, provided by the site's host. This tool works without cookies and without a persistent identifier: it can neither recognise a visitor from one visit to the next, nor follow them across other sites. The data collected is limited to aggregate statistics: pages viewed, country, device type and referring site. It is neither resold nor combined with other sources.

Drawings sent for demonstration

A drawing sent by email for a demonstration is used for that purpose only, is disclosed to no third party, and is deleted once the demonstration is over. A confidentiality agreement can be signed before any file is exchanged.

Liability

The publisher endeavours to ensure the accuracy of the information published on this site, without being able to guarantee that it is exhaustive. The software characteristics described here are liable to change. The applicable contractual terms are those of the general terms of sale provided before subscription.

Governing law

This site is governed by French law. Any dispute relating to its use falls within the jurisdiction of the French courts.
