Privacy policy

Last updated: 24 September 2026

Lisière has no account, no ads and no tracking. Your photos, locations, notes and tracks stay on your iPhone, and nothing is ever shared automatically.

1. Your journal

Sightings, photos, notes, outings and GPS tracks are stored locally (SwiftData), in the app's storage. You can export them yourself as CSV or GPX.

2. Blurred location by default

To protect sensitive species, only a zone (about 1 or 10 km, your choice) is stored. The precise location is then never saved. You can choose an exact location one sighting at a time.

3. Location

It is used to place and date a sighting and, during an outing you start, to record your route — including with the screen locked, with the iOS indicator visible. It is sent to no one.

4. Network

Species searches and “Around me” query the public iNaturalist API (the searched name, or a location rounded to ~100 m). Current weather is requested from Open-Meteo with a rounded location. No identifier is attached.

5. Camera and photos

Only the images you add to a sighting. They never leave your iPhone.

6. No tracking

No advertising or analytics SDK in the app. App Store label: “Data not collected”.

7. Deletion

Deleting a sighting or an outing erases it from the device; deleting the app erases the whole journal.

8. This website

This site only uses Google Analytics if you accept it through the cookie banner.

9. Contact
