Who runs this site
BackLid is a pre-launch project run from Montpellier, France. Publisher and person responsible for the data: Gustavo Guéniot. Contact: contact@backlid.com.
Hosting: Hostinger International Ltd, 61 Lordou Vironos Street, 6023 Larnaca, Chypre, https://www.hostinger.fr.
What the waitlist collects
Your email address; if you answer it, who BackLid would be for (you, your team, your business, your clients) and your team size; where you came from (for example TikTok, or a friend's share link); your browser language; and the date you joined. We also count visits per day and per source, with no IP address and no cookie.
Why, and on what basis
To tell you when BackLid launches, and to send you early-access offers and occasional news about BackLid. The basis is your consent, given when you join. You can withdraw it at any time with the unsubscribe link in every email, or by writing to us.
Who sees it, and for how long
Only the two BackLid founders. The list is stored with our host and on our own computer, and is never sold, rented or shared. We keep your email until you unsubscribe, and at most three years after your last contact with us.
To stop abuse, the sign-up form keeps a salted fingerprint of your network address that changes every day and is deleted after one hour.
Business enquiries
If you write to us through the Business Pack, For teams or Christmas form, we keep your name, your work email, your company, the number of laptops, the laptop models, the date you need them by and your message, with the date and where you came from. We use them only to answer you and prepare a mockup and a quote: steps you asked for before a possible contract. Only the two founders see them, and we keep them at most three years after our last exchange. They do not put you on the waitlist.
Team orders: photos of your people
For a team order, the company sends us each person's first name, role, laptop model and, if they wish, a photo. We use them only to design and print that team's lids, on the company's instructions. The company makes sure each person agrees to their photo; anyone can have their initials instead. We delete the photos 30 days after delivery.
QR codes and NFC tags
Some BackLid QR codes and NFC tags open a short backlid.com/t/ address that sends you on to their owner's page. We count the scan, per link and per day, to tell the owner how often their lid or object is scanned. No IP address, no cookie, nothing about you is kept. A company that subscribes to scan reports gives us one work email, to which we send the monthly counts of its own links; it can stop them at any time by replying "stop".
Cookies
This page sets no cookies. Your browser's session storage remembers where you came from during your visit, and is cleared when you close the tab. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address to deliver them.
Your rights
You can access, correct, export or delete your data, or object to its use, by writing to contact@backlid.com. If you think we got it wrong, you can complain to the CNIL (www.cnil.fr).
