Reolink Innovation Limited and our affiliates (“we” or “Reolink”) value and protect user privacy. We are highly aware of the importance of your personal information and are committed to protecting such information in a secure and controlled manner by strictly complying with legal and regulatory requirements and referring to proven industry security standards. For this purpose, we have developed the Reolink Privacy Policy (“Policy”) to help you understand in detail how we collect, use, process, share, store, and protect your personal information during your use of our products and/or services and the rights you have in such process. We adopt this Policy to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) (“GDPR”), as well as other applicable privacy laws in other jurisdictions in which we operate, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”). Please note that “personal information” in this Policy has the same meaning as "personal data" under GDPR or similar concepts in other privacy protection laws.
Before you start using our products and/or services, it is important that you read this Policy carefully (especially the highlighted terms) and fully understand the content herein. When it comes to additional business functions that require the processing of your non-essential personal information, we will ask for your consent separately. Some of the concepts might seem a little technical, and we've tried our best to explain them in a simple and clear way. Please read and understand this Policy before use. If you have any questions, please contact us.
I.Scope of Application
(1) This Policy applies to the official website (https://reolink.com/) and all its subsites (collectively, “Website”), products, Reolink VMS, mobile applications (Reolink App), computer applications, cloud storage services, technical support, and other services provided by Reolink (collectively, “products and/or services”).
(2) This Policy does not apply to any third-party websites and their services linked to or from the Website. Please read the relevant privacy policy carefully when using the aforementioned services.
(3) “Personal information” herein refers to information recorded electronically or by other means, which can be used to identify or relate to a natural person, excluding anonymized data. The type and scope of personal information we collect vary with the products and/or services you use and how you interact with us. Please refer to the specific product or service functions. You have the right not to provide us with this information, but in some scenarios, if you choose not to, we will not be able to provide you with the corresponding products or services or respond to and resolve your problems.
(4) Some services may require you to enable the corresponding permissions on your device. You may refer to “(IV) Reolink App and Client Services” under “II. How We Collect and Use Your Personal Information” in this Policy to learn about the specific permissions involved with the Reolink App. You can also go to “Settings > Application Permissions” on your device to enable or disable the permissions at any time as needed. In particular, even if we have obtained your access permissions, we will only collect your information when it is necessary for the rendering of relevant functions or services.
(5) For a better user experience, we are constantly improving our technology. As a result, we may from time to time introduce new or optimized functions and hence may need to collect and use other personal information or change the purposes or methods of data use. In this regard, we will separately explain to you the scope, purposes, and methods of collection and use of the corresponding information by Policy updates, pop-up windows, page prompts, etc. You will have the right to agree or disagree with such changes, and we will only collect or use your information after obtaining your express consent. During this process, if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, you can contact us through the contact information provided herein. We will reply to you as soon as possible.
(6) Local-specific addendum also applies to users in those territories and may, in some cases, set out different standards due to applicable local laws, rules, and regulations. If so, the local-specific addendum will govern in the event of a conflict.
II.How We Collect and Use Your Personal Information
We follow the data minimization principle when collecting and using your personal information and do not use your personal information beyond the purposes of the Reolink User Services Agreement and this Policy
(I) Registration, Account Log-In and Verification
When you register and log in to your Reolink account, you need to provide your email address and, in some scenarios, a verification code. If you refuse to provide them, you will not be able to register successfully. Additionally:
(1) When submitting community posts, making product reviews, and sharing videos, you may choose to fill in your nickname, profile picture, and name as needed. Refusal to provide such information will not affect your access to these functions or services.
(2) You may choose to fill in the country according to your own needs in order to use our personalized services (such as displaying local prices for products). Refusal to provide such information will not affect your use of the basic functions of your account, unless otherwise stated.
(3) If you use other login methods, you will permit us to access your email address (or mobile number) and country registered for your third-party account, for the purpose of binding it to your Reolink account. For personal information that we need but the third-party cannot provide, we will inform you and ask you to provide it through system prompts, etc.
(4) For products and/or services that require a Reolink account to use (e.g., cloud service and smart home function), we may verify your user identity based on the above information provided by you to ensure that we are providing services right for you.
(II) Online Transaction Service
Online transaction-related services are available on our websites and in our software. Some of them can be used without account registration but will still rely on certain personal information.
(1) You can make pre-transaction preparations such as information browsing, searching, and adding to cart (adding goods to your shopping cart) without logging in. We will collect your search keywords, query or browsing history, and add-to-cart history (such information is desensitized and will not be associated with you) in order to provide better website services.
(2) You may purchase products and/or services from our websites by logging into your Reolink account or through “visitor shopping” mode. In order to deliver the goods to you and provide after-sales service as required by the contract, you should provide your email address, shipping address (including postal code), recipient name, phone number, and other information when you place an order. If you do not provide such information, we will not be able to ship and deliver the goods or provide after-sales services. You can also provide your company information and its tax ID to enable tax-free purchases.
(3) When making a payment, you can choose the payment service provided by our partner third-party payment institutions (including PayPal and other payment channels). We need to share your order number, transaction amount, payment method, and other necessary information required by anti-money laundering laws with these payment institutions, so that they can confirm your payment instructions and complete the payment. Also, to keep us informed of the status of your payment so that we can prepare for shipment accordingly, you agree that we may collect information related to your payment progress from the payment institution you have selected. You can also choose to place orders via our partner third-party e-commerce platforms. In order to provide you with relevant Reolink Services, we might collect the above-mentioned Information via such third-party e-commerce platforms.
(III) Reolink Cloud Service
After you have subscribed to a valid Reolink Cloud plan (“Reolink Cloud”), you may log in to your account in the Reolink App and on your device to access and use the Reolink Cloud services.
(1) When you bind your device to Reolink Cloud to use the cloud storage service, we will collect the serial number of the product. The product serial number is the unique basic product information and is the basic information that must be collected to bind the product and further provide you with Reolink Cloud storage service.
If you choose to upload and store video recordings from your device to Reolink Cloud, and such video recordings contain personal data, you will act as the data controller, while we will act as the data processor on your behalf for the purpose of providing the Reolink Cloud service. As the data controller, you are responsible for ensuring that all processing activities, including but not limited to uploading and storing video recordings on Reolink Cloud, comply with applicable data protection laws and regulations. You are also responsible for fulfilling all legal obligations imposed on data controllers.
(2) When you enable Cloud AI features, we will securely process your cloud-stored videos as needed for certain functions (such as AI Video Search Plus).
We apply strict data minimization and access control measures to ensure that your data is used only for the aforesaid purpose and will not be kept longer than necessary. You can turn off the Cloud AI features at any time in your account settings.
(IV) Reolink App and Client Services
You can access your device in the Reolink App, Reolink Client, other Reolink software, and a browser, and perform remote control or management (i.e., Reolink App and Client services). We may collect and use corresponding personal information according to the specific functions you choose to use.
(1) When you bind your device to the Reolink App, we will collect the serial number of the product you bind. Such information is unique product information that shall be collected in order to bind products and provide you with further Reolink client services.
Upon your informed consent, we will request access to the location (WiFi SSID) of your device. We only use such permissions to help you enter input and connect your device to the Internet. We will also need your camera permissions to scan the device QR code for UID input, storage permissions to save pictures and videos to your phone album, and notification permissions for pushing alerts. You can disable these permissions at any time via “Settings > Application Permissions” on your phone. Depending on the Reolink Services you’re using and settings you choose, we may collect different types of location information to help make some Reolink Services you use more helpful. These include: GPS and other sensor data from your Reolink device.
(2) When you use the phone push notification function, we will collect your device alerts, device information and visual data (only when you have enabled the rich notification function). Such information is only used for the Reolink App to push device alerts to you. Additionally, for certain device models which include the Notification Center feature, related text messages and images will be stored in the Notification Center for up to 7 days (subject to the actual description on the feature’s page) to allow you to view recent notification history. You can view or delete these records at any time through the Notification Center. All message data will be automatically deleted from our servers after 7 days (subject to the actual description on the feature’s page).
(3) When you enable the email alerts, with your informed consent, we will collect your email address, technical information about your Reolink device, including the name, model and any customized labels, if applicable, to optimize our personalized services targeting on different models of Reolink devices provided to you. Such information is stored on your device. It will not be uploaded to Reolink server and is used to send you email alerts only. You can disable this function at any time via “Settings > Email Alerts > Disable Email Alerts”. After disabling it, you can delete relevant data from your device.
(4) We provide certain on-device AI features available for specific device models. These features operate entirely within the device and do not rely on any cloud-based processing, which ensures data security and full user control. You may enable or disable these features at your discretion anytime.
(5) If you agree to join Reolink App User Experience Program, with your informed consent, we will collect information about your user id, app & OS version, country/region, cell phone model and version, device type and model, language setting, function clicks, page & button clicks, page dwell time, the lag time between clicking the app icon and seeing the content during first use and error information (crash log, error log, etc.).

(V) Customer Service
We provide customer services such as product and service consultation, technical support, and after-sales service through telephone, online systems, etc. In order to contact you and help you solve your problems as soon as possible, or to record the solution and result of the relevant problem, we may collect and, in accordance with this Policy, store your correspondence/call records and related contents with us (including account information, country, search history, email address, order information, payment information, purchase channels, bound product information, phone numbers, call recordings, and the evidence you provide to us. If you contact us via Facebook message, we will collect your Facebook profile picture and nickname); if you make inquiries or complaints or provide suggestions for specific orders, we will use your account information and order information.

(5) When you participate in the #ReolinkTrial Program, based on the user contract, we will collect your name, country, email address, and postal code and use them only for the purpose of delivering prizes. If you refuse to provide us with such information, you will be deemed to have waived the award.

You could find more details at Reolink Video and Image Submission Terms. Please note that this is optional, and you have the right to opt out of such processing activities.
Videos that are not approved by the system will be automatically deleted 15 days after the review. You may change/delete contents you have submitted at any time by logging in to your account or by contacting us directly.
(7) From time to time, we may hold marketing campaigns. In order to prevent malicious use of means to increase the prize-winning rate and other behaviors, we may require you to log in to your account. We may also need to record the number of times you have participated in the event as appropriate. If you win the prize, you should also provide the recipient name, recipient address (including postal code), and telephone number so that we can deliver the prize to you. Such information is necessary for you to enjoy the rights and benefits of events. If you refuse to provide it, you may not be able to participate in relevant events.
