Voilà, c’est carré pour un site US qui veut dans le même temps être légal et clair par rapport à la réglementation européenne d’origine. Si tu souhaites, je peux aussi t’adapter ça en version plus orientée US (genre avec références US sur la protection des données), mais garde en tête que tu dois respecter le RGPD si tu cibles l’UE, donc c’est important.
