Presentation

La commune de Fauvillers est une très petite commune, de 2300 habitants. Nos moyens sont donc très limités.

Nous avons un service informatique qui intervient une fois par mois dans nos bâtiments et qui assure un suivi régulier à distance, et nous avons un responsable RGPD pour 1/8e. C'est tout ce qui concerne l'équipe informatique.

Nous veillons déjà depuis plusieurs années à la diminution de l'empreinte écologique du numérique, en augmentant la durée de vie du matériel, en réparant, en réutilisant.

Nous disposons d'un Espace public numérique accessible à tout le monde, avec accompagnement.

Nous souhaitons sensibiliser, tant notre personnel que nos citoyens à de bonnes pratiques. Au niveau des services, nous envisageons de nous orienter vers des GSM reconditionnés ou des fairphones, à poursuivre la politique de durée de vie des installations informatiques, à former à un usage moins énergivore de la bande passante. Des actions au niveau de la sécurité des données, du respect du RGPD, de la sélection des informations à conserver sur le serveur est déjà en cours et nous a permis aussi de rationaliser certaines pratiques.

Nous n'avons donc pas des moyens énormes et nous ne pouvons pas avancer à grande vitesse, mais, dans le cadre du PAEDC, nous comptons poursuivre les efforts et notamment la communication vers les citoyens.
