Privacy policy

Last updated: September 16, 2026

In short

Redfish is a social network built for sharing real moments with people you know. We only collect what the app needs to work, we don’t sell your data, and you can export or delete it at any time from the app.

This policy explains which personal data we process when you use the Redfish mobile app and the red-fish.app website, why, for how long, and your rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and French data protection law.

Data controller

The data controller is [publisher name or company — to be completed], [address — to be completed] (“Redfish”, “we”).

For any question about your data: contact@red-fish.app.

We only ask for camera access to take photos, photo library access to pick a home background, and microphone access because the camera module requires it: no audio is ever recorded.

Who can see your photos

  • Your photos are only visible once the roll has been developed.
  • They are shared with your friends and, for a shared roll or an event, with the relevant participants.
  • You choose who can add you (everyone, friends of friends, nobody) and whether your profile shows up in search.
  • You can block a user at any time.

What we don’t do

  • We don’t sell your personal data.
  • We don’t track your location in the background.
  • We don’t use your photos for advertising.
  • The red-fish.app website uses no cookies, no analytics and no third-party resources.

Recipients and processors

Your data is only accessible to authorized Redfish staff and to service providers strictly needed to run the service:

  • Hosting: INFRAWIRE NETWORKS SAS (France) — servers and database.
  • Stripe — payment processing.
  • Mapbox — event map display.
  • Apple and Google — sign in with your Apple or Google account, and notification delivery.

We may also disclose data to authorities when required by law.

Transfers outside the EU

Some providers (Stripe, Mapbox, Apple, Google) may process data in the United States. These transfers are covered by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and/or the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

Retention periods

  • Account, photos, connections: as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, this data is permanently erased; backup copies are overwritten within 7 days.
  • Payment records: 10 years, as required by accounting law.
  • Technical and security logs: 12 months maximum.
  • Support conversations: 3 years after last contact.

Your rights

You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, object to and port your data, to withdraw your consent at any time, and to set instructions regarding your data after your death.

  • Right in the app: Settings → Data & privacy → “Export my data” or “Delete my account”.
  • By email: contact@red-fish.app. We reply within one month.

If you believe your rights are not respected, you can lodge a complaint with the CNIL, the French data protection authority (cnil.fr), or your local authority.

Minimum age

Redfish is for people aged at least 15, the age from which a minor can consent to data processing on their own in France. If we learn that an account belongs to someone younger, it is deleted.

Security

Traffic between the app and our servers is encrypted (TLS), passwords are stored hashed (Argon2), internal access is restricted and logged, and backups are made regularly.

The red-fish.app website

The website is static: it sets no cookies and loads no external resources. Our server keeps technical logs (IP address, requested page, date) for security purposes. Your theme preference (day / night) is only stored in your browser.

Changes

We may update this policy. For significant changes, we will let you know in the app. The last update date is shown at the top of this page.
