The StopCovid application is completely anonymous. It only generates pseudonyms (ephemeral cryptographic identifiers) that are not associated with the user’s identity. No one, not even the State, has access to the identity of the users.

● Transparency

● Temporary
StopCovid is not designed to last after the health crisis. It is only a tool to fight this epidemic and a regulatory framework in this direction has been established by decree.
