I tried using the dns host in apache as "Allow from 
umap.openstreetmap.fr" but this does not work and create an access 
denied from the umap when accessing the geojson data.

     <Directory "/var/www/example.org/geojson/">
         Options FollowSymLinks
         AllowOverride None
         Order Deny,Allow
         Deny from all
         Allow from 164.132.171.132
         Allow from umap.openstreetmap.fr
     </Directory>

I created a few maps that have personal details in that should be 
protected and I have to make sure only umap.openstreetmap.fr system and 
the people with authorised uMap accounts can access them.

Do you have a subnet of the servers the clusters is using for 
umap.openstreetmap.fr?
