Fohrkast relies on a legitimate use under s.7(a) for each purpose above: the person gives the details for that purpose, such as a work email to sign in, an email to Fohrkast or a request for access. Logs and tax invoices are also kept because the law requires them (CERT-In Directions, 28 April 2022; CGST Act 2017, s.36). Any other use needs consent (s.6).

04 Who else handles it

Amazon Web Services runs Fohrkast's servers, database, email and logs (fohrkast.com/sub-processors). Google Workspace holds Fohrkast's mailbox. Razorpay takes payments for Fohrkast's own invoices, for billing only. Fohrkast does not sell personal data and runs no advertising or tracking.

05 Cookies

  • » A sign in session cookie, set at sign in.
  • » A language choice for each signed in person, kept one year.
  • » Single use cookies of up to two minutes that carry a message or a new key from one app screen to the next.
  • » Short cookies for a step in progress: signing in (up to 10 minutes), linking a social account (10 minutes) and finishing a sign up started on /start (one hour).
  • » On staff screens, the browser's own storage keeps view settings; nothing in it is sent to Fohrkast.
  • » No analytics, advertising or tracking cookies.

Each of these is needed for the service to work, so none waits for a choice.

06 Rights

  • » Correction, completion, updating and erasure (s.12).
  • » Withdrawal of consent, as easy as giving it (s.6(4)).

Write to privacy@fohrkast.com from the email the account or the request used, or name it in the message. Fohrkast checks that a request comes from the person before acting on it.
