    We don’t claim to be the only ones doing what we do ... and especially not to assert claims to be the best either ... What we do, we just try to do it well and getting better ...
    The following list represents softwares that tend to be more or less as MediaSPIP or that MediaSPIP tries more or less to do the same, whatever ...
    We don’t know them, we didn’t try them, but you can take a peek.

    On ne revendique pas d’être les seuls à faire ce que l’on fait ... et on ne revendique surtout pas d’être les meilleurs non plus ... Ce que l’on fait, on essaie juste de le faire bien, et de mieux en mieux...
    La liste suivante correspond à des logiciels qui tendent peu ou prou à faire comme MediaSPIP ou que MediaSPIP tente peu ou prou à faire pareil, peu importe ...

  • extract subtitle from video ffmpeg. subs.srt : Invalid argument

    3 juillet 2019, par evgeni fotia
       let filename_ext = file.path.split('/').pop()
       let filename = filename_ext.split('.').slice(0, filename_ext.split('.').length-1).join('.')

       var result = ffmpeg({
         MEMFS: [{name: filename_ext, data: buffer}],
         arguments: ["-i", filename_ext, "-map", "0:s:0", "subs.srt"],
         // Ignore stdin read requests
         stdin: function() {},
       });
       // Write out.webm to disk.
       var out = result.MEMFS[0];
       fs.outputFile(pathname + '/' + out.name, Buffer(out.data), 'binary');

    I get the following

  • OCPA, FDBR and TDPSA – What you need to know about the US’s new privacy laws

    22 juillet 2024, par Daniel Crough

    On July 1, 2024, new privacy laws took effect in Florida, Oregon, and Texas. People in these states now have more control over their personal data, signaling a shift in privacy policy in the United States. Here’s what you need to know about these laws and how privacy-focused analytics can help your business stay compliant.

    Consumer rights are front and centre across all three laws

    The Florida Digital Bill of Rights (FDBR), Oregon Consumer Privacy Act (OCPA), and Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA) grant consumers similar rights.

    Access : Consumers can access their personal data held by businesses.

    Correction : Consumers can correct inaccurate data.

    Deletion : Consumers may request data deletion.

    Opt-Out : Consumers can opt-out of the sale of their personal data and targeted advertising.

    Oregon Consumer Privacy Act (OCPA)

    The Oregon Consumer Privacy Act (OCPA), signed into law on June 23, 2023, and effective as of July 1, 2024, grants Oregonians new rights regarding their personal data and imposes obligations on businesses. Starting July 1, 2025, authorities will enforce provisions that require data protection assessments, and businesses must recognize universal opt-out mechanisms by January 1, 2026. In Oregon, the OCPA applies to business that :

    • Either conduct business in Oregon or offer products and services to Oregon residents

    • Control or process the personal data of 100,000 consumers or more, or

    • Control or process the data of 25,000 or more consumers while receiving over 25% of their gross revenues from selling personal data.

    Exemptions include public bodies like state and local governments, financial institutions, and insurers that operate under specific financial regulations. The law also excludes protected health information covered by HIPAA and other specific federal regulations.

    Business obligations

    Data Protection Assessments : Businesses must conduct data protection assessments for high-risk processing activities, such as those involving sensitive data or targeting children.

    Consent for Sensitive Data : Businesses must secure explicit consent before collecting, processing, or selling sensitive personal data, such as racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, health information, biometric data, and geolocation.

    Universal Opt-out : Starting January 1, 2025, businesses must acknowledge universal opt-out mechanisms, like the Global Privacy Control, that allow consumers to opt out of data collection and processing activities.

    Enforcement

    The Oregon Attorney General can issue fines up to $7,500 per violation. There is no private right of action.

    Unique characteristics of the OCPA

    The OCPA differs from other state privacy laws by requiring affirmative opt-in consent for processing sensitive and children’s data, and by including nonprofit organisations under its scope. It also requires global browser opt-out mechanisms starting in 2026.

    Florida Digital Bill of Rights (FDBR)

    The Florida Digital Bill of Rights (FDBR) became law on June 6, 2023, and it came into effect on July 1, 2024. This law targets businesses with substantial operations or revenues tied to digital activities and seeks to protect the personal data of Florida residents by granting them greater control over their information and imposing stricter obligations on businesses. It applies to entities that :

    • Conduct business in Florida or provide products or services targeting Florida residents,

    • Have annual global gross revenues exceeding $1 billion,

    • Receive 50% or more of their revenues from digital advertising or operate significant digital platforms such as app stores or smart speakers with virtual assistants.

    Exemptions include governmental entities, nonprofits, financial institutions covered by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, and entities covered by HIPAA.

    Business obligations

    Data Security Measures : Companies are required to implement reasonable data security measures to protect personal data from unauthorised access and breaches.

    Handling Sensitive Data : Explicit consent is required for processing sensitive data, which includes information like racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, and biometric data.

    Non-Discrimination : Entities must ensure they do not discriminate against consumers who exercise their privacy rights.

    Data Minimisation : Businesses must collect only necessary data.

    Vendor Management : Businesses must ensure that their processors and vendors also comply with the FDBR, regarding the secure handling and processing of personal data.

    Enforcement

    The Florida Attorney General can impose fines of up to $50,000 per violation, with higher penalties for intentional breaches.

    Unique characteristics of the FDBR

    Unlike broader privacy laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which apply to a wider range of businesses based on lower revenue thresholds and the volume of data processed, the FDBR distinguishes itself by targeting large-scale businesses with substantial revenues from digital advertising. The FDBR also emphasises specific consumer rights related to modern digital interactions, reflecting the evolving landscape of online privacy concerns.

    Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA)

    The Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA), signed into law on June 16, 2023, and effective as of July 1, 2024, enhances data protection for Texas residents. The TDPSA applies to entities that :

    • Conduct business in Texas or offer products or services to Texas residents.

    • Engage in processing or selling personal data.

    • Do not fall under the classification of small businesses according to the U.S. Small Business Administration’s criteria, which usually involve employee numbers or average annual receipts. 

    The law excludes state agencies, political subdivisions, financial institutions compliant with the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, and entities compliant with HIPAA.

    Business obligations

    Data Protection Assessments : Businesses must conduct data protection assessments for processing activities that pose a heightened risk of harm to consumers, such as processing for targeted advertising, selling personal data, or profiling.

    Consent for Sensitive Data : Businesses must get explicit consent before collecting, processing, or selling sensitive personal data, such as racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, health information, biometric data, and geolocation.

    Companies must have adequate data security practices based on the personal information they handle.

    Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs) : Businesses must respond to consumer requests regarding their personal data (e.g., access, correction, deletion) without undue delay, but no later than 45 days after receipt of the request.

    Sale of Data : If businesses sell personal data, they must disclose these practices to consumers and provide them with an option to opt out.

    Universal Opt-Out Compliance : Starting January 1, 2025, businesses must recognise universal opt-out mechanisms like the Global Privacy Control, enabling consumers to opt out of data collection and processing activities.

    Enforcement

    The Texas Attorney General can impose fines up to $25,000 per violation. There is no private right of action.

    Unique characteristics of the TDPSA

    The TDPSA stands out for its small business carve-out, lack of specific thresholds based on revenue or data volume, and requirements for recognising universal opt-out mechanisms starting in 2025. It also mandates consent for processing sensitive data and includes specific measures for data protection assessments and privacy notices.

    Privacy notices across Florida, Oregon, and Texas

    All three laws include a mandate for privacy notices, though there are subtle variations in their specific requirements. Here’s a breakdown of these differences :

    FDBR privacy notice requirements

    Clarity : Privacy notices must clearly explain the collection and use of personal data.

    Disclosure : Notices must inform consumers about their rights, including the right to access, correct, delete their data, and opt-out of data sales and targeted advertising.

    Specificity : Businesses must disclose if they sell personal data or use it for targeted advertising.

    Security Practices : The notice should describe the data security measures in place.

    OCPA privacy notice requirements

    Comprehensive Information : Notices must provide information about the personal data collected, the purposes for processing, and any third parties that can access it.

    Consumer Rights : Must plainly outline consumers’ rights to access, correct, delete their data, and opt-out of data sales, targeted advertising, and profiling.

    Sensitive Data : To process sensitive data, businesses or entities must get explicit consent and communicate it.

    What these laws mean for your businesses

    Businesses operating in Florida, Oregon, and Texas must now comply with these new data privacy laws. Here’s what you can do to avoid fines :

    1. Understand the Laws : Familiarise yourself with the specific requirements of the FDBR, OCPA, and TDPSA, including consumer rights and business obligations.

    1. Implement Data Protection Measures : Ensure you have robust data security measures in place. This includes conducting regular data protection assessments, especially for high-risk processing activities.

    1. Update Privacy Policies : Provide clear and comprehensive privacy notices that inform consumers about their rights and how their data is processed.

    Florida, Oregon, and Texas are joining states like California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Iowa, Indiana, Tennessee, and Montana in strengthening consumer privacy protections. This trend could signify a shift in US policy towards a more privacy-focused internet, underlining the importance of consumer data rights and transparent business practices. Even if these laws do not apply to your business, considering updates to your data and privacy policies is wise. Fortunately, there are tools and solutions designed for privacy and compliance to help you navigate these changes.

  • Top 5 Web Analytics Tools for Your Site

    11 août 2023, par Erin — Analytics Tips

    At the start of July 2023, Universal Analytics (UA) users had to say goodbye to their preferred web analytics tool as Google discontinued it. While some find Google Analytics 4 (GA4) can do what they need, many GA4 users are starting to realise GA4 doesn’t meet all the needs UA once fulfilled. Consequently, they are actively seeking another web analytics tool to complement GA4 and address those unmet requirements effectively.

    In this article, we’ll break down five of the top web analytics tools on the market. You’ll find details about their core capabilities, pricing structures and some noteworthy pros and cons to help you decide which tool is the right fit for you. We’ve also included some key features a good web analytics tool should have to give you a baseline for comparison.

    Whether you’re a marketing manager focused on ROI of campaigns, a web analyst focused on conversions or simply interested in learning more about web analytics, there’s something for you on this list.

    What is a web analytics tool ?

    Web analytics tools collect and analyse information about your website’s visitors, their behaviour and the technical performance of your site. A web analytics tool compiles, measures and analyses website data to give you the information you need to improve site performance, boost conversions and increase your ROI.

    What makes a web analytics tool good ?

    Before we get into tool specifics, let’s go over some of the core features you can expect from a web analytics tool.

    For a web analytics tool to be worth your time (and money), it needs to cover the basics. For example :

    • Visitor reports : The number of visitors, whether they were unique or repeat visitors, the source of traffic (where they found your website), device information (if they’re using a desktop or mobile device) and demographic information like geographic location
    • Behaviour reports : What your visitors did while on your site, conversion rates (e.g., if they signed up for or purchased something), the pages they entered and exited from, average session duration, total time spent on a page and bounce rates (if they left without interacting with anything)
    • Technical information : Page loading speed and event tracking — where users are clicking, what they’re downloading or sharing from your site, if they’re engaging with the media on it and how far down the page they’re scrolling
    • Marketing campaign information : Breakdowns of ad campaigns by provider, showing if ads resulted in traffic to your site and lead to an eventual sale or conversion
    • Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) information : Which keywords on which pages are driving traffic to your site, and what search engines are they coming from
    • Real-time data tracking : Visitor, behaviour and technical information available in real-time, or close to it — allowing you to address to issues as they occur
    • Data visualisation : Charts and graphs illustrating the above information in an easily-readable format — helping identify opportunities and providing valuable insights you can leverage to improve site performance, conversion rates and the amount of time visitors spend on a page
    • Custom reporting : Create custom reports detailing the desired metrics and time frame you’re interested in
    • Security : User access controls and management tools to limit who can see and interact with user data
    • Resources : Official user guides, technical documentation, troubleshooting materials, customer support and community forums
    Google Analytics 4 dashboard

    Pros and Cons of Google Analytics 4

    Despite many users’ dissatisfaction, GA4 isn’t going away anytime soon. It’s still a powerful tool with all the standard features you’d expect. It’s the most popular choice for web analytics for a few other reasons, too, including :

    • It’s free to use
    • It’s easy to set up
    • It has a convenient mobile app
    • It has a wealth of user documentation and technical resources online
    • Its machine-learning capabilities help predict user behaviour and offer insights on how to grow your site
    • It integrates easily with other Google tools, like Google Search Console, Google Ads and Google Cloud

    That said, it comes with some serious drawbacks. Many users accustomed to UA have reported being unhappy with the differences between it and GA4. Their reasons range from changes to the user interface and bounce rate calculations, as well as Google’s switch from pageview-focused metrics to event-based ones. 

    Let’s take a look at some of the other cons :

    Now that you know GA4’s strengths and weaknesses, it’s time to explore other tools that can help fill in GA4’s gaps.

    Adobe is a trusted name in software, with tools that have shaped the technological landscape for decades, like Photoshop and Illustrator. With web design and UX tools Dreamweaver and XD, it makes sense that they’d offer a web analytics platform as well.

    Similar to GA4, Mixpanel is an event-focused analytics platform. While you can still track pageviews with Mixpanel, its main focus is on the specific actions users take that lead them to purchases.

    Screenshot of Hubspot Marketing's main page

    HubSpot is a customer relationship management (CRM) platform with marketing, sales, customer service, content management system (CMS) and operations tools. This greater ecosystem of HubSpot software allows you to practically run your entire business in one place.

    Even though HubSpot Marketing isn’t a dedicated web analytics tool, it provides comparable standard metrics as the other tools on this list, albeit without the more advanced analytical metrics they offer.

    Screenshot of the landing page of web analytics tool Kissmetrics

    Kissmetrics is a web analytics tool that is marketed toward SaaS and ecommerce companies. They label themselves as “person-based” because they combine event-based tracking with detailed user profiles of the visitors to your site, which allows you to gain insights into customer behaviour. 

    With user profiles, you can drill down to see how many times someone has visited your site, if they’ve purchased from you and the steps they took before completing a sale. This allows you to cater more to these users and drive growth.
