FFISHER Data Safety Summary
At a glance
FFISHER has no user accounts, no FFISHER cloud profile, and no FFISHER-operated backend in the current release. The Android build includes Firebase Analytics, Firebase Remote Config, Google Mobile Ads, and Google UMP. Their SDKs may process data according to their configuration, policies, and consent state.
Public data sources
FFISHER retrieves public information from the Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI), the Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE), Kalastusrajoitus.fi, and the National Land Survey of Finland. These sources provide weather forecasts, water-body and hydrology information, map tiles, and fishing-restriction information.
Data used by the App
| Data or access | How it is used | Sent to / shared with | Required? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Search text, selected water body, coordinates, and request parameters | Retrieve weather, water-body, hydrology, map and restriction information. | Public FMI, SYKE, Kalastusrajoitus.fi and National Land Survey services; not an FFISHER-owned server. | Only when using those online features. |
| Approximate or precise foreground location | Center the map and show the user’s position after the map location control is activated. | The current FFISHER implementation does not deliberately send this location to an FFISHER-owned server. Operating-system and map-provider processing may have separate rules. | Optional. |
| Device, app-instance, diagnostic, interaction, identifier, and advertising-related data | Android service operation, configuration, measurement, security, and advertising where enabled. | Firebase, Google Mobile Ads, and Google UMP, depending on SDK behavior, region, settings, and consent. | SDK-dependent. |
| Local session state and map preferences | Remember the current session and local map settings. | Stored locally by the App; no FFISHER cloud account is provided. | Feature-dependent. |

Retention, deletion and consent
FFISHER does not currently provide an account or cloud database containing a user profile. Local app data can generally be removed by clearing app storage or uninstalling the App. Firebase, Google advertising services, FMI, SYKE, map providers, and other external services may retain technical or request data under their own policies. Android advertising consent is requested through Google UMP where required.
