A free service is not a service without rules. Envoyer SMS Gratuit lets you send an SMS to a French mobile without sign-up, without advertising, and without limits — but every send remains governed by the GDPR. Here is precisely what that involves.
What the service actually keeps
The GDPR rests on a simple principle: data minimisation. We collect only what is strictly necessary to deliver the message, nothing more. Concretely, Envoyer SMS Gratuit requires no sign-up, creates no account, and builds no advertising profile. What is processed is limited to the recipient's number, the content of the SMS, and the technical elements essential to its delivery. Less data kept means less risk for everyone.
The legal basis: anti-abuse legitimate interest
A free service without sign-up also attracts abusive uses. To prevent spam, harassment, and impersonation attempts, sends are logged (IP address included). This retention rests on the legitimate interest provided for in Article 6 of the GDPR: guaranteeing a safe service and protecting it from abuse. These logs serve only this security purpose and may be handed to the authorities upon judicial request. Harassment and threats remain offences, perfectly traceable.
Who processes your data
The service is published by DIM SOLUTION. The hosting infrastructure is provided by Hetzner, whose European data centres are subject to the GDPR. No data is resold or exploited for advertising purposes: that's not the service's model.
Prospecting: consent, always
Sending a commercial message falls under an entirely different regime. SMS prospecting requires the recipient's prior opt-in and a simple, free means of opt-out. A personal, one-off send is not a campaign: don't misuse the tool to do one in place of the other. An unwanted SMS, meanwhile, can be reported.
Your rights, and how to exercise them
The GDPR grants you rights over the data that concerns you: access, rectification, erasure, and objection. To assert them, simply write to contact@dimsolution.com. Any request is handled within the framework provided for by the regulation.
Personal use vs professional platform
Envoyer SMS Gratuit is aimed at personal, one-off sending. For high-volume, tracked, and contractual communication, a professional SMS platform and its compliance framework are the way to go. Each use has its tool — and its obligations.
