Cookie management
This site uses client cookies, which are small text files used to analyse information relating to user browsing (frequency of visits, length of visits, pages consulted, etc.).
They are deposited by the site in a directory provided for this purpose on the user’s computer. In particular, they contain the name of the server that wrote it, an identifier in the form of a unique number and an expiry date. The unique identifier enables the site to recognise the user’s computer on each visit. Session cookies are deleted from the user’s computer when the session is closed. However, persistent cookies remain on the user’s computer for 1 month after the end of the session.
Users can decide for themselves whether or not this site’s web server is authorised to store cookies on their computer. They may, at any time, set their browser options so that cookies are not accepted and stored. In addition, you may delete any cookies already stored via your browser at any time.
The use of certain site functions may be limited or deactivated if the user refuses the site’s cookies. Users are therefore advised to set their browser to accept cookies from the site.

Protection of personal data
General
- Use of IP addresses in web server logs for security purposes
Personal data communicated by the user is processed in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (“RGPD”).
The CDA does not collect personal data apart from IP addresses in web server logs for security reasons. User consent is not required before visiting this site.
The data controller is the CDA who is responsible for this site.
This personal data is only accessible to authorised staff of the CDA and, if necessary, to recipients, in the context of the performance of their duties and the achievement of the stated purposes.
This data is kept for a strictly necessary period.
The legal rules on the protection of personal data, in particular the rights recognised to persons concerned by the processing carried out (right of access to data, right to rectify data, etc.) are applicable under the relevant conditions and subject to the exceptions and derogations provided for.
Users may address questions relating to the protection of data concerning them via the respective communication channels made available and to the person responsible, in this case the CDA, by proving their identity (i.e. by enclosing a legible and visible copy of their identity document with their request).
The Commission nationale pour la protection des données, whose registered office is at 15, Boulevard du Jazz, L-4370 Belvaux, may be contacted if necessary to lodge a complaint relating to the rights of the persons concerned (www.cnpd.public.lu).
- The possible use of personal data by CDA services following contact by the user
By browsing this website, users can obtain information about the various services offered by the CDA.
By contacting a CDA service, personal data may be processed by the respective service in its capacity as data controller. The European Regulation EU 2016/679 on the protection of personal data (RGPD) and the legal provisions that may apply are complied with.
This personal data is only accessible to authorised CDA staff and, if necessary, to recipients, in the context of carrying out their duties and achieving the purposes.
This data is kept for a strictly necessary period.
This data may be processed for archival purposes in the public interest, for scientific or historical research or for statistical purposes. Where necessary, such processing is subject to appropriate safeguards to guarantee the rights and freedoms of the persons concerned. Technical and organisational measures are therefore put in place to ensure the principle of data minimisation in particular.

Processing linked to audience measurement
Certain data relating to the user’s hardware and software, which are not of a nature to identify the user, are collected when the user visits the public site. The sole purpose of this data collection is to obtain visitor statistics (browser type, resolution, approximate location, etc.) in order to provide users with the best possible service.
Under no circumstances is the user’s full IP address kept. Only part of the IP address is kept in order to obtain overall statistics and under no circumstances is it possible to identify a user.
This data is stored and hosted in Europe in a solution provided by a subcontractor, which is subject to the same legal obligations concerning the protection of personal data in the event that such data is collected in the future.
The duration of data retention does not exceed that required to observe changes in audiences as a function of changes in browsers, resolutions used or other available statistical data.
The CDA is in charge of this processing.
The legal rules on the protection of personal data, in particular the rights recognised to persons concerned by the processing carried out (right of access to data, right to rectify data, etc.) are applicable under the relevant conditions and subject to the exceptions and derogations provided for.
Users may address questions relating to the protection of data concerning them via the respective communication channels made available and to the person responsible, in this case the CDA, by providing proof of identity (i.e. by enclosing a legible and visible copy of their identity document with their request).
