Controller and contact

The controller is Wassermann Media s.r.o., Vojtěšská 211/6, 110 00 Prague 1, Czech Republic, Company ID 09938842. Send privacy questions and requests to info@souborovna.cz.

Account

For a registered account we process your email address, a password hash (never the password itself), an optional name or company name, your plan and purchase status, sign-in sessions (in the app a secure token valid for up to 90 days and the device name; on the web a revocable session for up to 30 days, an approximate browser/system label, creation and last-use times), email notification preferences and security records of account changes. To link App Store and Google Play purchases to your account we use a random account identifier, not your Apple ID or Google Account.

Files and transfers

We process uploaded files and their metadata: name, type, size, a content hash, owner, chosen validity, password (as a hash only), download limit and aggregate view and download counts. We create previews and playable versions of videos and photos; the original is never modified. Content is not publicly indexed. The file hash is also used to block repeatedly uploaded prohibited content.

Recipients and visitors

A recipient does not need an account. When a transfer is opened or downloaded, we process the IP address needed for delivery and abuse prevention; download and report records store only a cryptographic hash of it and browser information. For password-protected transfers the browser keeps a verification cookie for 1 hour. A client uploading through a “Request files” link delivers the files to the folder owner, who receives an email notification with the file name.

When you open someone else's transfer while signed in, we remember which transfer you opened and when, so you can find it in your Received list. Only you can see this record; the sender is not told about it. The transfer disappears from the list when it expires or the sender deletes it, and you can remove it yourself.

Without an account, only your device (the app or the browser) remembers the transfers you opened: the link and when you opened it. When you view the list, the device sends them to the server only to check that the transfers are still available; without an account the server does not store them. When you sign in to the app, transfers opened on that device are added to your Received list.

For plan limits we record how much data a sender uploaded per month and how much was delivered from their transfers to recipients (in aggregate, without recording who downloaded or played them). For uploads without an account we use a hash of the IP address for the daily limit and delete it within two months at the latest.

Local browser history holds up to 50 links and opening times with no time limit. See Cookies and browser storage for storage and cleanup details.

Advertising and statistics

Ads shown with transfers are not personalised: we do not use your data to select or target them, and we use no advertising cookies or third-party tracking tools. Tapping an ad's button takes you to the advertiser's site, where its own policy applies. For transfers with the sender's own campaign we record aggregate statistics (views, plays, clicks, downloads) with a random identifier for this visit so that the sender can see the results of the campaign.

iPhone and iPad app

  • The app contains no third-party advertising or analytics SDKs and does not track you across other companies' apps or websites.
  • It sends only the files you select (the system photo picker without access to your whole library, files, or the Share extension).
  • It asks for add-only Photos access only when you choose to save a downloaded item.
  • It stores the sign-in token in the secure Keychain and temporarily keeps files on the device to resume an interrupted upload.
  • Notifications are local and are requested only after you confirm.

Android app

  • Android uses the same account, server transfers, plans, Received history and data processing described above.
  • It uploads only files you select through the system photo or file picker or Share action. Uploading does not require access to the whole photo library.
  • The sign-in token and settings are kept in app-private storage. Selected files may be stored temporarily on the device to resume uploads; a background service with a notification can continue the transfer.
  • Saving downloaded media uses the system media store. Android 8–9 requests write permission when saving. Notifications can be managed in app and system settings.
  • The app contains no third-party advertising or analytics SDKs. Advertising and aggregate server statistics follow the description above.

Resuming web uploads

For resuming uploads, the browser uses selected file names and sizes, transfer status and resulting links for up to 24 hours since the last save; old local records are removed when the queue is next loaded. File contents and passwords are not stored in browser local storage. Incomplete server chunks are removed after 24 hours of inactivity.

Payments

Purchases in the iPhone and iPad app are processed by Apple; we receive only transaction data from Apple (identifier, product, status and validity period). Purchases in the Android app from Google Play are processed by Google Play; we receive only subscription data from Google (purchase token, order number, product, status, country of purchase and validity period). Card payments on the website are processed by Stripe; we record customer and transaction identifiers, subscription status, amounts and payment status. For bank transfers we record the payment reference and amount. We never store card numbers.

Reports, moderation and communication

For content reports we process the reporter's contact details (if provided), reason, description, link, status and a record of actions taken; for sender blocking, the link between the two accounts. We use email for account verification, password reset, notifications you turn on, support replies, and notifications about report outcomes and reasons for restrictions. We also record complaints, human reviews, outcomes, prior warnings and proportionate restrictions for repeated violations.

Purposes and legal bases

  • performance of the contract — account, transfers, purchases and support,
  • legitimate interests — security, abuse prevention, moderation, campaign statistics for senders,
  • legal obligations — accounting and cooperation with authorities where required by law.

Who processes the data

We run the service on our own servers in the Czech Republic (including backups). We also use Cloudflare (DNS and website protection), Stripe (card payments on the website), Apple and Google (in-app purchases); emails are sent from our own mail server. These providers may process data outside the EU on the basis of standard contractual clauses or the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. We do not sell personal data.

How long we keep data

  • files and previews until the chosen validity ends or the transfer is deleted, then access is disabled and automatic cleanup removes content and derived versions, retrying failures. They may remain in operational backups for a limited time until overwritten.
  • the account until it is deleted; app sign-in sessions for up to 90 days and web sessions for up to 30 days; revoked sessions are kept until expiry to prevent replay,
  • records of received transfers you opened until the account is deleted,
  • payment and accounting records for the period required by law,
  • reports, enforcement actions and security records for as long as needed to handle them and prevent repeated abuse.

Your rights

You have the right to access, rectify and erase your data, to restrict processing, to data portability and to object. You can delete your account and data on the web in Settings → Account deletion, in the app (Account → Delete Account and Data) or by emailing info@souborovna.cz. You may lodge a complaint with the Czech Office for Personal Data Protection (www.uoou.cz) or your local data protection authority. Only a person older than 15 may create an account. App stores may apply a higher age rating or target age group.

Business processing and operational records

We are the controller for account management and service operations. When a business stores content containing other people's personal data, it is the controller for that content and we process it under the Data Processing Agreement.

Completed account-deletion jobs are deleted 30 days after completion. Resolved monitoring incidents are kept for up to 90 days after resolution; open incidents remain until resolved, with at most 200 incidents in the history. Web-server logs are rotated daily with 14 archives alongside the active log. These periods do not imply the same retention for all moderation or application records.
