Processed data

Audience measurement (Google Analytics)

This site uses Google Analytics to measure traffic and improve content (page views, technical browsing information, interactions, aggregated data).

Cached Strava data (if you connect Strava)

When you choose to connect Strava and analyze your activities, the server caches:

• activity metadata needed for analysis (ID, activity name, start date, distance, moving time, sport).
• GPS trace (latitude/longitude), cumulative distance, altitude, and point timestamps (time stream).
• generated analysis outputs (recognized segments, gaps, comparison stats).
• an internal Strava athlete identifier used to separate cache files between accounts.

Strava data not stored

• Strava athlete first/last name is not stored in durable application storage (only present in login session).
• detailed physiological metrics (heart rate, power, cadence, temperature, calories, etc.) are not requested or stored.
• Strava social data (followers, comments, kudos, messages) is not collected or stored.
• Strava OAuth tokens are not persisted in a dedicated application database by this site; they are used in active server session.

Purposes

• provide performance comparison features on the Chamonix–Zermatt route.
• cache activities/imports to avoid repeated API calls and speed up analysis.
• measure audience and improve the website.

Legal basis (Switzerland/EU)

Processing relies on your explicit action (voluntary Strava connection), legitimate interest to secure and improve the service, and, depending on jurisdiction, consent for analytics tools.

Retention period

Strava activity and stream caches remain stored server-side while useful for service operation or until technical cleanup. Shared analysis results may be retained to keep share links working.

Recipients and sharing

Data is not sold. It is processed by the hosting provider (Infomaniak), by Google Analytics for audience measurement, and by Strava for required API calls.

International transfers

Some third-party services (such as Google or Strava) may process data outside Switzerland/EEA. Using these services may imply such transfers under their contractual frameworks and policies.

Security

The site applies reasonable technical measures (HTTPS, session isolation, application controls) to limit unauthorized access.

Your rights

Under applicable law (Swiss nFADP and GDPR where applicable), you may request access, rectification, deletion, and certain processing restrictions. Contact: contact [at] hauteroute-chamonix-zermatt.com.

Cookies and trackers

The site uses technical session cookies (Strava login) and analytics trackers through Google Analytics.
