Mobile Fisheries Log (Mofi) - Privacy Policy

The privacy policy for Mofi describes the practices of the app, how and where collected data is stored, and the purpose for which the Mofi app is used.

By registering or using the Mofi app, you agree that Anchor Lab K/S may use your personal information in accordance with the following terms. You also authorize Anchor Lab K/S to transfer your personal information across national borders and to other countries where Mofi's project partners operate.

Note: There may be security vulnerabilities when transferring data over the Internet. A complete protection of data from access by third parties is therefore not possible and cannot be guaranteed.

2. Data collected and access rights

With the use of Mofi personal data is collected, processed (this means stored, modified, transmitted, blocked, deleted) and used. In order to use the app, you agree that the following personal data is allowed collected. This includes the users name, vessel name, vessel port letter number, vessel CFR number (EU identifier), e-mail address, user ID, static IP addresses, and additional information required by the reporting scheme or projects assigned to the users.

Mofi displays various input fields depending on what the user uses Mofi for. When a user signs up, the user needs to select one or more projects (or schemes) to register data under. Depending on which projects are chosen different data can be input into Mofi and transferred to the project owner. Each project has its own privacy policy stating exactly what extra data is collected and who it is sent too, if any. Use the Mofi app to view and accept project privacy policies.

Examples of additional data collected could be GPS location, heading, speed, further data on fishing activities, such as the beginning and end of fishing, as well as the gear used. For catch registration projects, data such as species, count, length, weight, discards, and endangered species information would be collected when typed in by the user. For pelagic sampling projects, information regarding the sampling such as species and weights would be collected.

For projects requiring Mofi to access the location of the smartphone, the location is determined via the inbuilt GPS. The app also accesses the internal memory of the mobile device to store all the data. Any communication or transfer of location and personal data to the project owner, takes place via an encrypted connection.

3. Purpose for the data collection, the use of data by third parties and duration of storage

The Mofi app enables the documentation of fishing activities, catch, bycatch, discard, and sample data. The data collected by the app can be sent to land and stored on a server (and backup media) situated at Anchor Lab K/S, Copenhagen or a project owner as described in the project privacy policy. The selected scheme in the App will define which data and who will have access to the data.

Any data sent to land and that Anchor Lab can access, will only be used by Anchor Lab to improve the App and to test out new features.

Your personal information and uploaded data are by default kept as long as you are an active user of Mofi. When you close your account, Anchor Lab deletes or anonymizes your personal information and the data that project owners no longer have a business reason to retain. However, if you never close or delete your account, Anchor Lab or project owners typically retain your personal information and your data for up to 5 years after your last interaction with us.
