Privacy policy

Last updated: October 20, 2026

Courtesy translation of the French document. In case of discrepancy, the French version prevails.

This policy explains how your personal data is processed when you use the melelabs.fr website, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and the French Data Protection Act.

1. Data controller

Nithard MELE, sole proprietor, trading as MELELABS, 59 rue de Ponthieu, Bureau 326, 75008 Paris, France (RCS Paris 107 237 950). For any question about your data: Contact@melelabs.fr. No data protection officer has been appointed.

2. Data processed, purposes, legal bases and retention periods

Contact form and emails. Data: name, email address, subject, content of the message, language of the page. Purpose: to reply to your requests for information, quotes or services, including an automatic acknowledgment sent to the address you give. Legal basis: pre-contractual steps taken at your request, and our legitimate interest in answering the requests we receive. Retention: for the time needed to handle your request, then three years from the last exchange, unless a contract is concluded (see below).

Orders and contracts. Data: identity, email address, billing address, order and payment information (bank card data is processed by Stripe and is not passed on to us). Purposes: performing the contract, delivering the product or service, invoicing, providing support. Legal basis: performance of the contract; legal accounting and tax obligations. Retention: the duration of the contract, then ten years for accounting records, and the applicable limitation period for the rest.

Technical logs. Data: IP address, date and time, pages viewed, browser type. Purposes: security, operation of the site and abuse prevention. Legal basis: legitimate interest. These logs are managed by the site’s host for the time strictly necessary for these purposes.

The information requested in the form is necessary to handle your request. Without it, we cannot reply to you. Your contact details are not used for commercial prospecting or for a newsletter without your prior consent.

3. Recipients and processors

Your data is accessible to MELELABS. It may be processed on our behalf by:

  • the site’s host, identified in the legal notice: hosting, and reception of the contact form messages;
  • the provider that hosts the melelabs.fr business email;
  • Resend: sending the automatic acknowledgment after a form is submitted;
  • Stripe: online payment, when sales are open.

We do not sell your data. It may be disclosed to the authorities where the law requires it.

4. Transfers outside the European Union

Some providers, including the site’s host, are based in the United States. The resulting data transfers are covered by the safeguards provided for in Chapter V of the GDPR (adequacy decision or standard contractual clauses). You can ask for information about them at the address above.

5. Cookies and trackers

This site does not set any advertising cookie or tracker, nor any audience-measurement one. No resource is loaded from third-party services: the fonts are hosted on the site itself. No consent banner is therefore needed.

6. Your rights

You have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing and objection, as well as the right to data portability where it applies. Under French law, you can also set instructions for what happens to your data after your death. To exercise your rights, write to Contact@melelabs.fr; we may ask for proof of identity if in doubt. We reply within one month.

If you believe your rights are not being respected, you can lodge a complaint with the CNIL: 3 place de Fontenoy, TSA 80715, 75334 Paris Cedex 07, France, cnil.fr/fr/plaintes, or with the data protection authority of your country of residence.

7. Security

The site is served over HTTPS. Access to the messages we receive is limited to MELELABS. We apply reasonable measures to protect your data against loss, unauthorised access and alteration.

8. Other MELELABS services

Dublio.io and the other software published by MELELABS have their own privacy policy, which applies to their use. Software sold under licence and running on your own equipment does not send us your data, unless their documentation says otherwise.

9. Changes

This policy may be updated. The date of the latest update is shown at the top of the page.
