Changes in Version 1.5 (September 2026)
- Adds a child-safety disclosure (§5.8, §3.5, §4.7, §4.8): images shared in direct messages are analyzed by automated systems that compare irreversible hashes against databases of known child sexual abuse material; for this analysis the images themselves are never transmitted to third parties — only hashes are. Adds images shared in direct messages to §3.5, a category of specialized child-safety technology providers to §4.7, and the cloud image-moderation processing of profile pictures (machine-learning analysis by AWS) to §4.8.
- Updates §10 (Cookies): the Jynx website now uses Google Analytics 4 with Consent Mode v2; analytics storage is denied by default and only enabled if you accept the cookie banner (your choice is stored locally on your device).
1. Introduction
Jynx ("nous", "notre", "l'application") est une plateforme sociale de gaming qui permet aux joueurs de se connecter, de former des équipes et de jouer ensemble.
Informations Légales :
- Entité Légale : Jynx Group
- Contact Responsable de la Protection des Données : [email protected]
- EU / EEA jurisdiction: France, European Union — this Privacy Policy complies with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and Directive 2002/58/EC (ePrivacy), as transposed in France.
- Brazilian jurisdiction: This Privacy Policy also complies with Brazilian Law nº 13.709/2018 (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados, "LGPD"), which applies to Jynx's processing of personal data of data subjects located in Brazil under Art. 3 of the LGPD, regardless of Jynx having no establishment in Brazil.
For the purposes of the LGPD, Jynx Group is the controller (controlador) of your personal data. Our Data Protection Officer acts as the encarregado (DPO) and may be reached at [email protected] for any request relating to the LGPD. Although Jynx qualifies as a pequeno agente de tratamento de dados pessoais (small-scale agent) under ANPD Resolution CD/ANPD nº 2/2022, which exempts Jynx from the obligatory appointment of an encarregado, Jynx voluntarily maintains this published communication channel.
Cette politique de confidentialité décrit comment nous collectons, utilisons, partageons et protégeons vos données personnelles lorsque vous utilisez notre application.
2. Âge Minimum et Vérification
Notre application est réservée aux utilisateurs âgés de 18 ans et plus.
Lors de la création de votre compte, nous vous demandons de fournir votre date de naissance. Si vous avez moins de 18 ans, vous ne pourrez pas créer de compte ou utiliser nos services.
Marketing to minors. Jynx is restricted to users aged 18 and over and applies an automated age gate. If we subsequently identify that a user is under 18 (LGPD Art. 14; GDPR Art. 8), we will immediately terminate the account, exclude the user from all marketing, re-engagement, and survey communications, and delete the associated marketing data. We never knowingly collect marketing consent from a minor.

Jynx n'active pas les fonctions d'enregistrement, de transcription, d'Agent Insights ou d'Egress de LiveKit. L'audio des salons vocaux est acheminé en temps réel par la SFU (Selective Forwarding Unit) de LiveKit et n'est ni enregistré, ni stocké, ni conservé par Jynx ni par LiveKit.
Lorsque vous parlez dans un salon vocal, votre audio est transmis en temps réel aux autres participants de ce salon, de la même manière que la voix fonctionne dans les autres applications de chat vocal.
L'audio des salons vocaux est traité avec votre consentement : vous accordez l'autorisation de micro et rejoignez explicitement un salon avant toute capture audio. Vous pouvez retirer votre consentement à tout moment en quittant le salon ou en révoquant l'autorisation de micro dans les paramètres de votre appareil.

Politique de Confidentialité Riot Games : https://www.riotgames.com/en/privacy-notice
4.4. Email Service Provider (Marketing & Survey Communications)
To deliver the marketing, re-engagement, and uninstall/churn-survey emails described in §5.6, Jynx uses a third-party email service provider (ESP) acting as a processor (GDPR Art. 28; LGPD Art. 39 — operador). The ESP processes your email address and minimal delivery data (e.g., send/bounce status) solely on Jynx's documented instructions, under a signed Data Processing Agreement.
- ESP identity, role, and location: Brevo (Brevo SAS, Paris, France) — our Email Service Provider and data processor under a signed Data Processing Agreement. Brevo Privacy Policy: https://www.brevo.com/legal/privacypolicy/
- Sub-processors: Brevo's current list of sub-processors is published in its Data Processing Agreement (Terms of Use): https://www.brevo.com/legal/termsofuse/
- International transfer basis: See §9. Brevo is headquartered in France (EU). Transfers to Brevo therefore benefit from the EU's protection regime under GDPR and, for Brazilian users, the ANPD adequacy decision for the EU (Resolution nº 32/2026) — no SCCs or additional mechanism are required.
We do not sell your personal data. No tracking pixels or hidden analytics are embedded in marketing emails without a separate legal basis disclosed in §5.6.
4.5. LiveKit Cloud (voix en temps réel)
Jynx utilise LiveKit Cloud en tant que sous-traitant (RGPD art. 28 ; LGPD art. 39 — operador) dans le cadre d'un accord de traitement des données signé, pour exploiter l'infrastructure média en temps réel qui achemine l'audio des salons vocaux entre les participants. LiveKit exploite la SFU (Selective Forwarding Unit) qui transmet le flux audio de chaque participant aux autres en temps réel.
Jynx n'active pas les fonctions d'enregistrement, de transcription, d'Agent Insights ou d'Egress de LiveKit. L'audio des salons vocaux est acheminé en temps réel par la SFU (Selective Forwarding Unit) de LiveKit et n'est ni enregistré, ni stocké, ni conservé par Jynx ni par LiveKit.
LiveKit conserve toutefois des métadonnées opérationnelles de session — telles que les identités des participants, les identifiants de salon, les horaires de connexion et les métriques de qualité — à des fins de facturation, de prévention des abus et d'exploitation, conformément à son addendum de traitement des données. Ces métadonnées ne sont pas utilisées pour vous identifier hors de la plateforme ni à des fins publicitaires.
4.6. App Store / Google Play (In-App Purchases and Subscriptions)
Jynx+ subscriptions and Founder Packs are sold in-app through Apple's App Store and Google Play, which act as the merchant of record for these purchases (see the Terms of Service, Section 8). Payment instrument data (e.g., card details) is collected and processed solely by Apple/Google under their respective privacy policies; Jynx does not collect, receive, or store any payment instrument data.
Via our billing provider RevenueCat (a processor acting under a signed Data Processing Agreement; GDPR Art. 28; LGPD Art. 39 — operador), Jynx receives only the information necessary to deliver what you purchased: your subscription and entitlement status (e.g., whether Jynx+ is active and its renewal date), the Founder Pack tier purchased, and transaction identifiers. This data is retained for as long as necessary to provide the Service and to meet accounting and record-keeping obligations (§6), and is used solely to grant and maintain your entitlements and to prevent fraud. RevenueCat is established in the United States; transfers of personal data to RevenueCat rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (for RevenueCat entities self-certified under the DPF) or on standard contractual clauses where the DPF does not apply. The applicable transfer mechanism for Brazilian users' data is confirmed in our Records of Processing Activities (see §9).

- Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- RevenueCat Privacy Policy: https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy
4.7. Specialized Child-Safety Technology Providers
To help detect known child sexual abuse material (see §5.8), Jynx works with specialized child-safety technology providers acting as processors (GDPR Art. 28; LGPD Art. 39 — operador). These providers receive only irreversible hashes derived from images — never the images themselves — and perform the hash matching in the EU region, solely for child-safety detection on Jynx's documented instructions. Deriving the hash from the image happens inside Jynx's own Google Cloud infrastructure (see §9).
4.8. Cloud Image-Moderation Provider (AWS)
To keep the platform safe, profile pictures and gallery photos are screened by an automated image-classification service — Amazon Rekognition, provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS), acting as a processor (GDPR Art. 28; LGPD Art. 39 — operador). For this purpose the image is transmitted to AWS and analyzed by machine learning for inappropriate content (for example nudity or explicit material); the outcome is a machine-generated label and confidence score handled under our moderation process (see the Child Safety Policy). This processing is used solely for content moderation and safety — never for profiling, advertising, or any other purpose. AWS processes this data in the AWS region configured for the service (currently São Paulo, Brazil); the transfer safeguards in §9 apply. As with the rest of the Service, the image is handled by Jynx's own Google Cloud infrastructure before being relayed to AWS (see §9).
5. Utilisation des Données
Nous utilisons vos données pour :

- Recommander des coéquipiers compatibles (matching basé sur le jeu, le rang, le style)
- Afficher du contenu pertinent
3. Communication :
- Vous envoyer des notifications importantes (matchs trouvés, messages reçus)
Marketing, re-engagement, and uninstall/churn-survey emails are described separately in §5.6 Marketing Communications and are not covered by this transactional category.
4. Amélioration du Service :
- Analyser l'utilisation pour améliorer les fonctionnalités
- Identifier et corriger les bugs
- Optimiser les performances
5. Sécurité et Conformité :

5.6. Marketing Communications
In addition to the operational notifications described in §5.3, we may send you marketing and re-engagement communications by email, including: product updates and feature announcements about the Jynx app; newsletters; re-engagement messages inviting you back to the app; and short uninstall or churn feedback surveys (e.g., "Why did you stop using Jynx?"). These communications are distinct from transactional/service notifications.
Legal basis — European Union / EEA users (GDPR + ePrivacy). Marketing and re-engagement emails to EU/EEA users are sent on the basis of your prior explicit opt-in consent (ePrivacy Directive Art. 13(1), transposed in France by Article L. 34-5 of the Code des postes et des communications électroniques; GDPR Art. 6(1)(a) and Art. 7). Following the launch of paid subscriptions (Jynx+) and one-time in-app purchases (Founder Packs), the Service is now a remunerated service, and those purchases constitute a "sale" within the meaning of the CJEU judgment C-654/23 (13 Nov 2025). The "soft opt-in" exception of ePrivacy Art. 13(2) is therefore in principle available to us for similar products and services to existing customers. As a conservative posture, however, we continue to rely on your prior explicit opt-in consent; we will only begin to rely on the soft-opt-in basis following a documented reassessment recorded in our Records of Processing Activities and an updated notice to you.
Legal basis — Brazilian users (LGPD). For Brazilian users, marketing and re-engagement communications rely on two alternative legal bases:
- Consent (LGPD Art. 7, I and Art. 8) — captured as a separate, un-ticked, purpose-specific opt-in at signup or in-app, recorded with date, form version, and language; you may withdraw it at any time, free of charge, without losing access to the Service (Art. 8 §5). Consent is the basis used for any communication to prospects, cold outreach, or cross-sell/partner offers beyond the core Jynx app.
- Legitimate interest (LGPD Art. 7, IX, elaborated by Art. 10) — used only for existing or recently-lapsed users receiving re-engagement messages, product updates about the same Jynx app, or a single short churn/uninstall feedback survey. Before relying on this basis, Jynx conducts and documents a Legitimate Interests Assessment (LIA) following the three-phase test of the ANPD Legitimate Interest Guide (2 Feb 2024): (i) purpose, (ii) necessity, and (iii) balancing and safeguards. The LIA records the prior relationship, the user's reasonable expectations, the purpose, the least-intrusive means chosen, and the opt-out channel. Legitimate interest is not used for cold/unsolicited email, unrelated cross-sell, purchased lists, or persistent messaging to departed users after the relationship has clearly ended.
Right to object / opt-out. Brazilian users may at any time oppose this processing and opt out via the mechanisms in §7.5 and §7.6 (one-click unsubscribe in every email, or the in-app communications-preferences toggle), without cost and without terminating the account. We honor opt-out requests in real time. The Brazilian Consumer Defense Code (CDC, Law 8.078/90, in particular Art. 39 III) prohibits unsolicited or abusive commercial messaging; we therefore strictly respect opt-outs and apply frequency caps, since persistent or ignored-opt-out sending may be treated as an abusive practice.
Uninstall / churn surveys. Wherever operationally feasible we ask uninstall/churn questions in-app at the uninstall moment (no email retention required). Where an email survey is sent, the survey contains no promotional or re-engagement content; we send a maximum of one (1) survey per user within approximately 60 days of account deletion or uninstall; the email address is then deleted or anonymized in accordance with §6; and users who have submitted an erasure / right-to-be-forgotten request (§7.3) are never re-contacted and are placed on a permanent suppression list (see §6 and the Terms of Service §7.2).
Email tracking. Marketing emails do not embed tracking pixels or hidden analytics that process personal data without a separate legal basis. Where any open/click tracking is introduced, it will be disclosed here and based on consent (LGPD Art. 8; ePrivacy Art. 5(3)), consistent with the ANPD guidance on tracking technologies (18 Oct 2022).
Frequency. Marketing emails are subject to internal frequency caps; you can reduce or turn them off at any time via the in-app communications-preferences toggle or by clicking unsubscribe in any message.
5.7. Sécurité de la communauté et contournement de bannissement
Afin de protéger notre communauté contre les abus, nous utilisons des identifiants d'appareil et des signaux d'intégrité de l'appareil pour détecter et empêcher les tentatives de contournement d'une suspension ou d'un bannissement. Si nous associons un appareil à un compte banni, cet appareil peut être empêché de créer de nouveaux comptes ou de se connecter. Si vous pensez qu'une erreur a été commise, vous pouvez faire appel en contactant [email protected].
5.8. Child-Safety Image Analysis
To help protect children and meet our legal-reporting duties, Jynx uses automated systems to analyze images shared in direct messages by comparing hashes derived from those images against databases of known child sexual abuse material. For this analysis, the images themselves are not transmitted to third parties — only irreversible hashes are (see §4.7). Profile pictures are screened separately, by the image-moderation processing described in §4.8. This analysis exists solely for child-safety detection and our legal-reporting duties; it is not used for profiling, advertising, or any other purpose. Matches are handled as described in our Child Safety Policy.
6. Conservation des Données
6.1. Périodes de Conservation
- Données de Profil : Conservées tant que votre compte est actif
- Logs et Analytiques : Firebase Analytics : 14 mois (politique Firebase)
- Marketing email addresses (consent-based): Retained for as long as you have not opted out or deleted your account, plus a hashed record on the suppression list (see below) to ensure we do not re-contact you
- Uninstall / churn survey email addresses: Retained for a maximum of 60 days after the survey is sent (or, if no survey is sent, 60 days after uninstall/deletion), after which the address is deleted or irreversibly anonymized. No more than one (1) survey email is sent per user
- Re-engagement of recently-lapsed accounts (LGPD legitimate-interest basis, Brazilian users only): Consistent with CNIL guidance and the reasonable-expectations test, Jynx may use the email address of a recently-lapsed (non-erasure) account for re-engagement for up to 3 years after the last meaningful interaction, after which it is deleted or anonymized
6.2. Suppression des Données
Vous pouvez demander la suppression de votre compte à tout moment (voir Section 7).
Conservation Légale : Certaines données peuvent être conservées plus longtemps pour respecter nos obligations légales (par ex., rapports de sécurité, transactions financières).
When you delete your account, we purge your email address from our marketing CRM and email service provider. If you exercise the right to erasure (§7.3 / GDPR Art. 17 / LGPD Art. 18(VI) for consent-based data), your email address is added to a permanent hashed suppression list so that it is never re-used for marketing, re-engagement, or surveys — including protection against re-import via any third-party or purchased list. Note: under the LGPD, Art. 18(VI) deletion applies to data processed on the basis of consent; data processed on the basis of legitimate interest (Art. 7 IX) is instead governed by the purpose-limitation principle (Art. 6 II and §2) and your right to request cessation of processing (Art. 18 §2).

7.7. Additional LGPD Rights (Brazilian Users)
In addition to the rights above, data subjects located in Brazil have the following rights under LGPD Art. 18: confirmation of the existence of processing; access to the data; correction of incomplete, inaccurate, or out-of-date data; anonymization, blocking, or deletion of unnecessary or excessive data (Art. 18(VI) applies to data processed on the basis of consent); portability to another service or product provider, upon request; deletion of personal data processed with consent; and information about the possibility of denying consent and the consequences of doing so.
You may exercise these rights via Settings > Privacy or by contacting the encarregado at [email protected]. You may also lodge a complaint with the Brazilian data protection authority — the Autoridade Nacional de Proteção de Dados (ANPD) — at https://www.gov.br/anpd.
8. Sécurité des Données
Nous mettons en œuvre des mesures de sécurité techniques et organisationnelles pour protéger vos données :
- Chiffrement : Communication sécurisée via HTTPS
- Règles de Sécurité Firebase : Contrôle d'accès strict aux données Firestore
- Authentification : Gestion sécurisée des sessions via Firebase Auth
- Validation des Entrées : Prévention des injections XSS via SecureTextInput
- Limitation de Débit : Protection contre les abus (messages spam, actions automatisées)

- Real-time voice: Voice-room media is encrypted in transit using WebRTC DTLS-SRTP, the same standard used by mainstream voice apps; signaling between the app and our servers is over HTTPS/TLS.
Aucun système n'est sécurisé à 100%. En cas de violation de données, nous vous notifierons conformément au RGPD (sous 72 heures).
9. Transferts Internationaux de Données
Vos données peuvent être transférées et stockées sur des serveurs situés hors de l'Union Européenne, notamment :
- Google Cloud / Firebase : Utilise une infrastructure mondiale avec conformité RGPD
- Amazon Web Services (image moderation): The image-moderation processing described in §4.8 runs in AWS's São Paulo region (Brazil); transfers from the EU/EEA rely on AWS's data-processing agreement incorporating the European Commission's standard contractual clauses, together with the general guarantees below. The image is relayed to AWS through Jynx's Google Cloud infrastructure (the Google Cloud / Firebase leg above)
- Sentry : Serveurs basés aux États-Unis avec conformité Privacy Shield
- Email Service Provider (ESP): Used to deliver the marketing, re-engagement, and survey communications described in §5.6. The ESP is named in §4.4 and acts as a processor under a signed Data Processing Agreement
- LiveKit (real-time voice): LiveKit is our processor for voice-room audio under a signed Data Processing Agreement (see §4.5). As described in §3.6 and §4.5, voice-room audio is routed in real time and is not recorded, stored, or persisted by Jynx or by LiveKit. The applicable international-transfer mechanism for LiveKit will be confirmed before the voice feature is enabled for users. Accordingly, the general EU/EEA and Brazilian transfer guarantees set out below do not yet extend to LiveKit; they will be updated to reflect the confirmed mechanism before voice launches.
Guarantees (GDPR, EU/EEA). All transfers from the EU/EEA are covered by an adequacy decision, the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, or standard contractual clauses, together with supplementary measures where required.
Guarantees (LGPD, Brazil). Transfers of Brazilian users' personal data are governed by LGPD Art. 33:
- To Jynx Group in France (controller): Lawful under LGPD Art. 33(I) by virtue of ANPD Resolution CD/ANPD nº 32/2026 (in force 26 January 2026), which recognizes the European Union — including France — as providing an adequate level of protection. No additional transfer mechanism is required for this leg. (This adequacy decision is subject to reassessment by the ANPD within four years; if suspended, Jynx will implement an alternative Art. 33 mechanism such as the ANPD standard contractual clauses.)
- To Brevo in France (email ESP, processor): Lawful under LGPD Art. 33(I) by virtue of the same ANPD Resolution CD/ANPD nº 32/2026 (in force 26 January 2026), which recognizes the European Union — including France — as providing an adequate level of protection. No additional transfer mechanism is required for this leg. (Subject to the same ANPD reassessment described above; if the adequacy decision is suspended, Jynx will implement an alternative Art. 33 mechanism such as the ANPD standard contractual clauses with Brevo.)
- To child-safety technology providers in the EU (hash matching, processors): Covered by the same ANPD Resolution CD/ANPD nº 32/2026 EU adequacy decision as the legs above — the providers receive only irreversible hashes and perform the matching in the EU region (§4.7)
- To AWS in Brazil (image moderation, processor): The AWS Rekognition hop stays in-country — it runs in AWS's São Paulo region (§4.8). The image is first relayed through Jynx's Google Cloud infrastructure, which is covered by the general Google Cloud / Firebase transfer terms above
Historical note: the one-year grace period for adapting existing contracts to the ANPD SCCs ended on 23 August 2025; new processor relationships such as the ESP execute the SCCs at onboarding.
10. Cookies et Technologies Similaires
Notre application mobile n'utilise pas de cookies au sens traditionnel, mais utilise :
- Jetons d'Authentification : Stockés localement de manière sécurisée
- Cache Local : Pour améliorer les performances (données de profil, messages récents)
Website. The Jynx website (jynx.app) uses Google Analytics 4 (provided by Google) with Consent Mode v2 to understand how the site is used. Analytics storage is denied by default: until you accept the cookie banner, Google Analytics runs without cookies or local storage and Google receives only cookieless, identifier-free signals; if you accept, full measurement is enabled. Your choice — accept or decline — is stored locally on your device (browser localStorage, key "jynx-analytics-consent"). Clearing your browser storage for jynx.app makes the banner appear again so you can change your choice. Google acts as a recipient of the resulting analytics data (see §9); see §4 for our other processors and §7 for your rights.
11. Modifications de Cette Politique
Nous pouvons mettre à jour cette politique de confidentialité. En cas de changements majeurs, nous vous notifierons :
- Via une notification in-app
- Par email à l'adresse associée à votre compte
12. Nous Contacter
Pour toute question concernant cette politique de confidentialité ou pour exercer vos droits :
Autorité de Contrôle : If you believe your rights have not been respected, you may lodge a complaint:
- EU/EEA users: with the CNIL (Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés), France — https://www.cnil.fr
- Brazilian users: with the ANPD (Autoridade Nacional de Proteção de Dados), Brazil — https://www.gov.br/anpd
Filing a complaint with a supervisory authority does not prejudice your right to seek other judicial remedies available to you, including the mandatory consumer protections that apply in your jurisdiction (e.g., the Brazilian Consumer Defense Code, Law 8.078/90).
13. Consentement
We process your personal data only where we have a lawful basis. The lawful bases we rely on, and where each is described in this Policy, are:
- Performance of a contract / provision of the Service (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b); LGPD Art. 7, V) — account, matching, and messaging (§5.1–5.3)
- Legitimate interests (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f); LGPD Art. 7, IX and Art. 10) — security, fraud prevention, service improvement, and (for Brazilian users) marketing/re-engagement/survey communications to existing or recently-lapsed users as described in §5.6, each supported by a documented balancing assessment
- Legal obligation (GDPR Art. 6(1)(c); LGPD Art. 7, II) — retention for legal purposes (§6)
- Legal obligation and legitimate interests (GDPR Art. 6(1)(c) and 6(1)(f); LGPD Art. 7, II and IX) — detection of illegal and policy-violating content, including the child-safety image analysis described in §5.8 and the image-moderation processing in §4.8, prevention of abuse and ban evasion (§5.7), and compliance with legal reporting duties. For the analysis of images shared in direct messages, Jynx also relies on the voluntary detection of online child sexual abuse permitted by Regulation (EU) 2021/1232 (the ePrivacy derogation, as currently in force).
- Consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a); LGPD Art. 7, I and Art. 8) — analytics where you have enabled them, push notifications, and (for EU/EEA users and for Brazilian prospects/cold/cross-sell sends) marketing communications per §5.6
- Voice-room audio is processed on the basis of your consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a); LGPD Art. 7, I and Art. 8) when you grant microphone permission and explicitly join a room (see §3.6); you may withdraw it at any time by leaving the room or by revoking microphone permission in your device settings.
Consent must be specific and informed. Where we rely on your consent, it is given by a clear affirmative act, refers to specified purposes, and is captured separately from your acceptance of these terms (LGPD Art. 8 §1 — cláusula destacada). Generic or bundled authorizations are void under LGPD Art. 8 §4 and invalid under GDPR Art. 4(11) and Art. 7. Using Jynx does not by itself constitute consent to marketing. The burden of proving valid consent rests with Jynx (LGPD Art. 8 §2; GDPR Art. 7(1)); we therefore record the date, form version, language, and scope of each consent we collect.
Withdrawal. You may withdraw any consent at any time, through a procedure that is as easy as giving it and that does not require you to delete your account (LGPD Art. 8 §5; GDPR Art. 7(3)) — see §7.5 and §7.6. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal. Deleting your account (§7.3) remains available at any time but is not the mechanism for withdrawing a specific consent.
