Privacy Policy

Version of July 23, 2026. Compliant with the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector of Québec (“Law 25”).

The person in charge

The role of Person in charge of the protection of personal information is held by Preuve en main's management, reachable through the contact form or at confidentialite@preuveenmain.ca.

The principle: your data stays with you

The core of the app runs on your device. Your log, your photos, your documents and your reports are stored locally and are never transmitted without an action on your part. No artificial intelligence reads or writes your documents.

What we collect, and why

  • Account (if you create one): your email, an optional username and a password hash (never the password in plain text). Purpose: to authenticate you, back up your cases and carry your membership. Legal basis: performance of the service you request.
  • Sync (if you're signed in): the text data from your cases (not your photos or files, which stay local) so you can find them across your devices. You can erase everything at any time.
  • Membership: your subscription status and a payment customer identifier. Payment goes through Stripe: we never see or store never your card number.
  • If you sign up for updates: your email, with your express consent, one-click unsubscribe.
  • If you write to us: your email and whatever you choose to tell us.

Our providers (processors)

We rely on a small number of trusted providers, bound by contract: Cloudflare (hosting for the site and account data backups, with processing in Canada where possible) and Stripe (payment processing, PCI-DSS certified). Some processing may involve a transfer outside Québec; we choose providers offering adequate protection. We sell nor rent any data, ever.

Cookies and trackers

This site uses no advertising cookies and no profiling trackers. Only what is strictly necessary for it to work (for example, your session once you are signed in). No data is sold or shared for commercial purposes.

Your rights

Access, correction, withdrawal of consent, deletion: the contact form is enough; we respond within 30 days. You can also file a complaint with the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec.

Retention

Email exchanges are kept for the duration of the relationship, then deleted. The newsletter list lives with our sending provider and is purged of unsubscribes automatically.

In the event of an incident

If a privacy incident posed a risk of serious harm, we would notify the Commission d'accès à l'information and the people affected, as the law requires, and we would say so clearly, without burying the information.
