Cookie and Tracker Policy
Version 1.0 — Effective as of May 15, 2026
This policy specifies which cookies and trackers are used by Individual entrepreneur Hugo Frederic Mourlan (“FishMan”) on the fishman-app.com website and within the FishMan mobile application, as well as how to accept, refuse, or configure them.
1. What Is a Cookie or Tracker?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device (computer, phone, tablet) when you visit a website. It allows information about your browsing to be stored (preferences, cart, session, etc.).
In a mobile application, equivalent technologies are used: advertising SDKs, device identifiers (IDFA on iOS, AAID on Android), local storage, measurement pixels, web beacons. This policy covers all such trackers, whether placed on the website or in the Application.
2. Legal Framework
In accordance with the “ePrivacy” Directive 2002/58/EC, Article 82 of the French Data Protection Act, and the recommendations of the CNIL (deliberation No. 2020-091 of September 17, 2020), the placement and reading of trackers not strictly necessary to the service require your prior consent, freely given, informed, specific, and unambiguous.
Trackers strictly necessary to the operation of the service (authentication, load balancing, storage of consent choices) are exempt from consent.
You may withdraw your consent at any time, as easily as you gave it.

You may modify your choices at any time via the “Manage cookies” link in the footer of every page of the website.
Refusal of trackers is as easy as their acceptance: a single click is enough.
5.2 In the FishMan Application
- iOS: on first launch, a native App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt asks whether you allow tracking for advertising purposes.
- Android and any User residing in the EEA, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland: a GDPR consent screen appears on first launch, in accordance with Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) requirements.
- You may modify your choices at any time via: Settings > Privacy > Tracker management.

7. Consequences of Refusal
Refusal of non-strictly necessary trackers:
