Depending on how you use the app, we may collect account information such as your name, email address, phone number, and profile details. We may also process authentication and session data, push notification tokens, basic device or technical information, and QR-related data used for loyalty, rewards, and offer features.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data such as health information, and we do not intentionally collect precise location, microphone data, contacts, or payment card information through the app.

2. How We Use Your Information (and Legal Basis)

Under the GDPR, our legal bases for processing this data are:

We do not sell your personal data.

3. Permissions

The app may request limited device permissions, including camera access for QR code scanning and notification permission for app-related updates and alerts. We only request permissions that are reasonably necessary for the app to function properly.

4. Third-Party Services

We may use trusted third-party services such as Firebase Cloud Messaging for push notifications and hosting or backend service providers to operate the app's servers, database, and related infrastructure. These providers may process limited personal or technical data only as needed to provide their services to us.

5. Data Sharing

We may share information with service providers that help us operate the app, when required by law or legal process, or when reasonably necessary to protect our rights, users, systems, or to prevent fraud or abuse. We do not sell personal information to third parties.

6. Data Retention and Account Deletion

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary to operate the app, provide services, maintain security, and meet legal obligations.

If you would like your account or personal data deleted, you can do so directly using the "Delete Account" button within the app settings, or by contacting us at [email protected].

7. Firebase Cloud Messaging / Push Notifications

We use Firebase Cloud Messaging, provided by Google Firebase, to send app-related push notifications such as appointment updates, loyalty rewards, offers, and important account notifications. To provide this service, we may process your device's push notification token, basic device information, and notification delivery data. Push notifications are only sent where permitted by your device settings, and you can disable them at any time through your device notification settings.

Barber Club is not intended for children under 15. If you are under 15, you should use the app only with the consent of a parent or legal guardian.

9. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

10. Your GDPR Rights

Because we operate in France and the European Union, you have specific rights regarding your personal data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected]. If you believe your data has been mishandled, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the French Data Protection Authority (the CNIL).
