Data controller
The data controller is Mathis Wdowiak EI, sole trader (trading as “Absyt”), 61 rue de Lyon, 75012 Paris, France · contact@absyt.com.
The absyt.com website
absyt.com is a showcase site. It uses no tracking cookies, no analytics tool (such as Google Analytics) and no advertising tracker. No account is required and there is no collection form: the only way to send us information is to write to us by email, of your own accord.
Like any web server, the host may keep technical logs (IP address, date and time of connection) for security and reliability. Those logs are managed by the host and are not used by Absyt for commercial purposes.
The SixKit app
SixKit is a macOS app that runs entirely locally, inside Apple's sandbox. Your content (notes, tasks, files, text captures, QR codes) stays on your Mac and is never sent to Absyt or to any third party. The app contains no networking code at all: it is technically unable to make a request.
System permission. SixKit asks for a single permission: screen recording, which Calque needs in order to read the area you select. The app does not request Accessibility, microphone, camera, contacts, calendar, photos or location access. You can refuse or revoke it at any time from System Settings › Privacy & Security: only Calque then stops working, the other five tools are untouched.
The SmartClipr app
SmartClipr is a macOS app that runs entirely on your Mac, inside Apple's sandbox. It contains no network code: no account, no analytics, no server. Your copies and your screenshots never leave your Mac, and you can check that with any firewall.
System permissions. SmartClipr asks for none. Access to your screenshot folder is granted by you, folder by folder, through Apple's own file picker. The app requests neither Accessibility nor screen recording, nor the microphone, camera, contacts, calendar, photos or location.
The Squadd app
Unlike our macOS apps, Squadd needs an account: the game is played together and in real time, so scores have to be shared between the phones of the players in a lobby. This section spells out exactly what that means.
What we keep: your email address, your nickname, your profile picture if you choose one, the content of your games (points, events, dares, votes), your language and theme, and a technical token for notifications. Your password is never stored in plain text: it is handled by our host’s authentication service, which only keeps an encrypted fingerprint. We have no access to it.
Minimum age: 17. Dares and scoring are written freely by the players themselves: Absyt neither writes nor reads them, except when they are reported. The app is rated 17+ and not recommended for minors.
Purchases, App Store and Google Play
SixKit, SmartClipr and Squadd are distributed through the Apple App Store. The purchase is handled directly by Apple, which acts as the seller and processes the payment. Absyt receives neither your bank details nor your payment data, and has access to no information about your Apple Account. The handling of that information falls under Apple's privacy policy. SmartClipr additionally offers an in-app purchase, the Pro version, handled by Apple in the same way: Absyt receives no payment data from it.
On Android, Squadd is distributed through Google Play, and the Pro subscription is charged by Google on the same principle: Absyt receives no payment data, only the subscription status. This information is handled under Google’s privacy policy.
Purposes and legal basis
As no personal data is actively collected, no processing takes place for commercial, statistical or advertising purposes. The only data that may be processed (emails you send us, the host's technical logs) is processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in answering your requests and keeping the service secure.
For Squadd, account and game data are processed to provide the service you use (performance of a contract, i.e. the terms of use). Reports are processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in protecting players, and of the rules Apple and Google impose on apps of this kind.
Retention period
Squadd account: 18 months of inactivity. An account with no sign-in for eighteen months is deleted automatically, together with all of its data. An active subscription suspends that deadline. You can of course delete your account earlier, at any time, from the app. Departure reasons left behind are kept for 24 months, with no identifier that could tie them to anyone. The emails you send us are kept for as long as it takes to handle your request, then archived or deleted. The host's technical logs are kept in line with its own retention periods.
Squadd reports: 12 months. A report is kept for one year so that repeat offences can be handled, then deleted automatically.
