3 Definition
This privacy policy is based on the terms of the GDPR. To make things easier, we would like to explain some important terms in this context in more detail:
• Personal data: Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more particular characteristics that are an expression of the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
• Data subject: Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller.
• Processing: Processing is any process or series of operations carried out with or without the aid of automated processes in connection with personal data, such as collection, collection, organization, ordering, storage, adjustment or modification, reading, querying, using, disclosing through transmission, dissemination or any other form of provision, reconciliation or linking, restriction, deletion or destruction.
• Recipient: Recipient is a natural or legal person, authority, agency or other body to which personal data is disclosed, regardless of whether it is a third party or not. However, public authorities that may receive personal data as part of a specific investigation mandate under Union or Member State law are not considered recipients.
• Third party: Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons who, under the direct responsibility of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.
• Consent: Consent is any expression of will given voluntarily by the data subject in an informed and unequivocal manner in the form of a statement or other unequivocal affirmative action by which the data subject indicates that they consent to the processing of personal data concerning you.
4 No obligation to provide your personal data
We do not make the conclusion of contracts with us dependent on you providing us with personal data beforehand. As a customer, there is generally no legal or contractual obligation for you to provide us with your personal data; however, we may only be able to provide certain offers to a limited extent or not at all if you do not provide the necessary data.
5 Source of personal data
We may obtain personal information in the following ways:
5.1 Information provided by you
You have the option to provide information about yourself in the app.
5.2 Automatically collected and generated data
When you use our app, we collect personal data about you.
5.3 Data collected by third parties
Furthermore, data may be collected by third parties, for example when the app is downloaded by the app store operator.
6 Scope, purpose, storage period and, if applicable, recipient and third country transfer of the respective processing of personal data
6.1 General information
In the following, we give you an overview of which personal data we process. For this purpose, we will explain to what extent and for what purposes. We also indicate — if available — which third parties we use to receive your data. Finally, we will let you know whether the respective processing by the third party provider involves a transfer to a third country.
Providing your personal data is always voluntary. However, the respective functionality may only work if you provide your information.
We will not share your personal data with third parties without your consent, unless this is permitted by law (e.g. because this is necessary to perform the contract).
6.2 Data transfer to third countries
Insofar as we transfer personal data to a third country for processing, we ensure compliance with Art. 44 ff. GDPR, i.e. that we check whether an adequate level of protection is ensured before any transfer of personal data to third parties in a country outside the European Union (“EU”) or the European Economic Area (“EEA”).
An adequate level of protection can be ensured, among other things, by the fact that the EU Commission has taken an adequacy decision, concluded standard data protection clauses with the recipient and has taken further additional measures, or that the transfer to third countries is permitted under other guarantees regulated in Art 46 et seq. GDPR. Insofar as the data transfer is based on Art. 46, 47 or 49 (1) GDPR, you can obtain from us a copy of the guarantees of an adequate level of data protection with regard to the data transfer or an indication of the availability of a copy of the guarantees. Copies of these guarantees can be obtained from us.
6.3 Deletion of data
The data processed by us will be deleted in accordance with legal requirements as soon as their consent permitted for processing is withdrawn or other permits no longer apply (e.g. if the purpose of processing this data has ceased to apply or you are not required for the purpose). Unless the data is deleted because it is necessary for other and legally permitted purposes, its processing will be limited to these purposes. This means that the data is blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be stored for commercial or tax reasons or whose storage is necessary to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person.
6.4 Safety measures
In accordance with legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, implementation costs and the nature, scope, circumstances and purposes of processing as well as the different probabilities of occurrence and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, we take appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.
The measures include in particular ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as access, input, transfer, availability and separation relating to you. We have also set up procedures that ensure the exercise of data subject rights, the deletion of data and responses to the data being compromised.
In addition, we take the protection of personal data into account when developing or selecting hardware, software and processes in accordance with the principle of data protection, through technology design and through privacy-friendly default settings.
Communication between the anybill app and the techreach GmbH system (cloud servers) is always encrypted. The data is stored in an ISO 27001 certified data center in the EU.
