Privacy Policy

The SUMARiS App uses the user's device for:

  • Uploading pictures, such as the user's profile avatar or pictures of fish specimens;
  • Uploading videos (coming soon);
  • Uploading locations, such as fishing operation positions;
  • Monitoring the network status to warn the user when the network is lost.

Pictures

Privacy policies are as follows:

  • Specimen pictures are stored locally but can be uploaded to the SUMARiS Pod if the user decides to export them.

    Specimen pictures can be added from the following app screens:

    • Fishing operation form (Menu > Trips > select a trip > select an operation > open the second or third tab > open a species batch);
    • Landing form (Menu > Occasion > select an occasion > select a landing or a vessel > open the second tab > open a species batch). > Pictures can be enabled or disabled, depending on the selected data collection programs.
  • Profile avatars are public data, stored by the SUMARiS Pod.
    • NOTE: This feature is not yet implemented. For now, the app uses avatars from the Gravatar website if available. Users cannot define their own avatar.
    • You can completely remove your profile avatar:

Videos

Privacy policies are as follows:

  • Videos are stored locally but can be uploaded to the SUMARiS Pod if the user decides to export them.

NOTE: This feature is not yet implemented. For now, only pictures can be used.

Positions

Privacy policies are as follows:

  • Vessel positions are stored locally, then used and uploaded to the SUMARiS Pod if the user decides to input the latitude/longitude from the fishing operation screen.

    Vessel positions can be added from the following app screens:

    • Fishing operation form (Menu > Trips > select a trip > select an operation).
  • Only when the user is connected to the Seychelles Fisheries Authorities (SFA Pod - https://sih.sfa.sc):
    • These positions are stored locally (one position every 30 minutes) and then uploaded to the SFA Pod when the user clicks on "Terminate" from an occasion form (Menu > Occasion > bottom button 'Terminate' ).
    • To delete all collected positions, please contact the SFA Pod administrator.

Network Status

Privacy policies are as follows:

  • When the app starts, it monitors the network status. A warning is displayed when the network is lost.
  • No data is stored or uploaded, either locally or anywhere else.
