Privacy policy
Last updated: November 10, 2026
Your alibi is your business. This site doesn’t ask for your name, email or an account. The only information collected is visit statistics, through Google Analytics, and only if you consent.
Who we are
The “Gen the Alibi” site (French: “Génère ton alibi”) is operated by Archipel, in collaboration with FDM. Archipel is responsible for the personal information collected by this site.
Person in charge of the protection of personal information
For any question about this policy or to exercise your rights, write to our person in charge of the protection of personal information:

What we collect
Only with your consent, Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, collects information about your browsing:
- the pages you view, the length of your visit and your interactions with the site (clicks, scrolling);
- the site you came from (referrer);
- your device type, operating system, browser, language and screen resolution;
- an approximate location (country, region, city), derived from your IP address. Google Analytics 4 does not store the IP address itself;
- a random identifier stored in a cookie, which recognizes a repeat visit without knowing who you are.
Google signals and ad personalization are turned off: this data is not used to show you advertising.
Without any personal information, the generator records the four choices made to create an alibi (duration, recipient, risk level, type of cover story) to feed the “Alibis generated” counter. These choices are not linked to any identifier, cookie or IP address, and cannot be used to identify you.
We do not sell any information and do not use it to build a profile of you.
Why
Google Analytics statistics are used only to measure the site’s traffic (number of visits, where visitors come from, devices used) and to improve it.
Cookies used
No cookie is set before you click “Accept”. If you decline, neither Google Tag Manager nor Google Analytics is loaded.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Distinguish visitors anonymously | 2 years | |
_ga_<ID> | Keep track of the session | 2 years |
Your choice (accepted or declined) is kept in your browser’s local storage for 12 months, so we don’t ask you again on every visit. This information never leaves your device.
Disclosure outside Quebec
Google Analytics data is processed by Google LLC, including on servers located in the United States. The site is hosted by Cloudflare, whose servers may also be located outside Quebec. These providers are bound by contractual data protection commitments. The information involved (browsing statistics without names or contact details) is of low sensitivity.
Retention
Google Analytics data is kept for 14 months, then deleted automatically. Only aggregated reports, which cannot identify anyone, may be kept longer.
Who has access
Only the people at Archipel and FDM who manage the site have access to the statistics, to the extent required by their duties.
Your rights
At any time, you can:
- withdraw or change your consent with the button below or the “Manage cookies” link at the bottom of every page;
- request access to the information about you, its correction or its deletion by writing to our person in charge (see above). Since we collect no names or contact details, we may not be able to link statistics to you;
- block or delete cookies in your browser settings;
- file a complaint with Quebec’s Commission d’accès à l’information.
We respond to requests in writing within 30 days.
Security
The site is served exclusively over HTTPS. Access to the analytics tools is limited to authorized people and protected by authentication.
Minors
This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect any information about people under 14.
Changes
We may update this policy. The date of the last update appears at the top of the page. If a change affects the cookies used, we will ask for your consent again.
