(3) General storage period of personal data

Unless otherwise stated or specified within this privacy policy, the personal data collected by this APP will be stored until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. If there is a legal obligation to store the data or another legally recognized reason for storing the data (e.g. legitimate interest), the relevant personal data will not be deleted before the respective reason for storing the data no longer applies.

(4) Legal basis for storing personal data

The processing of personal data is only permitted if there is an effective legal basis for the processing of this data. If we process your data, this is regularly done on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) a DSGVO and Section 25 (1) TTDSG, for the purpose of contract performance pursuant to Art. 6 (1) b DSGVO (e.g., when using In-APP purchases or the use of other paid APP functions) or on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) f DSGVO, which are always weighed against your interests (e.g., in the context of advertising measures). The relevant legal bases in each case will be specified at a separate point within the framework of this data protection declaration, if applicable.

(5) Encryption

This APP uses encryption for reasons of security and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the inquiries that you send to us as APP operator or the communication of APP users with each other. This encryption prevents the data you transmit from being read by unauthorized third parties.

(6) Changes to this privacy policy

We reserve the right to change this privacy policy at any time in compliance with legal requirements.

§ 2 Your rights

The GDPR grants data subjects whose personal data is processed by us certain rights, which we would like to inform you about here:

(1) Revocation of your consent to data processing.

Many data processing operations are only possible with your consent. We will explicitly obtain this from you before starting data processing. You can revoke this consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal communication by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

RIGHT TO OBJECT TO DATA COLLECTION IN SPECIAL CASES AND TO DIRECT ADVERTISING (ART. 21 DSGVO)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6 ABS. 1 LIT. E OR F DSGVO, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME, ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA RELATING TO YOU; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASES ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS DATA PROTECTION DECLARATION. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS THE PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR THAT THE PROCESSING IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ASSERTING, EXERCISING OR DEFENDING LEGAL CLAIMS.

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING INSOFAR AS IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT ADVERTISING.

(2) right of appeal to a supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have a right of appeal to a supervisory authority. The right of appeal is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

(3) Information, deletion and elimination

You have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing, as well as the right to correct or delete this data. For this purpose, as well as for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint.

(4) Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. To do this, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data has happened / is happening unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of erasure.

If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO, a balancing of your and our interests must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – apart from its storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

(5) Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.

§ 3 Access rights of the app

In order to provide our services through the APP, we require the access rights listed below, which allow us to access certain features of your device.

Device numbers of your smartphone

Access to the device functions is necessary to ensure the functionality of the APP. The legal basis for this data processing is our legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO, your consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG and – if a contract has been concluded – the fulfillment of our contractual obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO).

§ 4 Collection of personal data in the context of APP use

(1) General

When you use our APP, we collect the following personal data from you:

• Usage data
• Device identifier

The processing of this personal data is necessary to ensure the functionality of the APP. The legal basis for this data processing is our legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO, your consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG and – if a contract has been concluded – the fulfillment of our contractual obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO).

(2) Inquiry within the APP, by e-mail, telephone or fax.

If you contact us (e.g. via contact form within the app, by e-mail, telephone or fax), your inquiry including all personal data resulting from it (e.g. name, inquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO, if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO) and/or on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO), as we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of requests addressed to us. The data you send to us by contact request will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have completed processing your request). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular legal retention periods – remain unaffected. We will not pass on your data without your consent.

§ 5 Data analysis

When you access our APP, your behavior may be statistically evaluated using certain analysis tools and analyzed for advertising and market research purposes or to improve our offerings. When using such tools, we ensure compliance with the statutory data protection provisions. When using external service providers (order processors), we ensure through appropriate contracts with the service providers that the data processing complies with German and European data protection standards.

(1) Google Analytics Firebase

We use Google Analytics Firebase (hereinafter Google Firebase) to analyze user behavior. The provider is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Firebase includes various functions that allow us to analyze your In- APP behavior. In this way, we can, for example, analyze your screen views, button presses, In- APP purchases or the effectiveness of advertising measures. We can also determine which functions within our APP are frequently or rarely used. Google Firebase stores for these purposes, among other things, the number and duration of sessions, operating systems, device models, region and a number of other data. A detailed overview of the data collected by Google Firebase can be found at: https://support.google.com/firebase/answer/6318039?hl=de.

The use of Google Firebase may require the forwarding of your personal data to the USA.

Google Firebase is used to optimize this APP and to improve our offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If consent has been requested, the use of Google Firebase is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG. The consent can be revoked at any time.
