1. Definitions
Following the example of Art. 4 of the GDPR, this privacy notice is based on the following definitions:
- "Personal data" (Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ("data subject"); 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 factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person. The identifiability can also be given by means of a linkage of such information or other additional knowledge. The origin, form or embodiment of the information is irrelevant (photographs, video or audio recordings may also contain personal data).
- "Processing" (Art. 4 No. 2 GDPR) means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
- "Controller" (Art. 4 No. 7 GDPR) means the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.
- "Third Party" (Art. 4 No. 10 GDPR) means any natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body other than the Data Subject, the Controller, the Processor and the persons who are authorized to process the Personal Data under the direct responsibility of the Controller or Processor; this also includes other groupaffiliated legal entities.
- A "processor" (Art. 4 No. 8 GDPR) means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller, in particular in accordance with the controller’s instructions (e.g. IT service provider). In terms of data protection law, a processor is in particular not a third party.
- "Consent" (Art. 4 No. 11 GDPR) of the data subject means any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

E. Data processing by third parties within and outside the EU (third countries)
1. Commissioned processing of personal data by third parties
(1) It may happen that commissioned service providers are used for individual functions of our app. As with any larger company, we also use external domestic and foreign service providers to handle our business transactions (e.g. for the areas of IT, logistics, telecommunications, sales and marketing). These service providers only act on our instructions and are contractually obligated to comply with the data protection provisions pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR.
(2) The following categories of recipients, which are usually processors, may receive access to your personal data:
- service providers for the operation of our app and the processing of data stored or transmitted by the systems (e.g. for data center services, payment processing, IT security). The legal basis for the transfer is then Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b or lit. f GDPR, insofar as they are not order processors;
- Government agencies/authorities, insofar as this is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation. The legal basis for the disclosure is then Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. c GDPR;
- Persons employed to carry out our business operations (e.g. auditors, banks, insurance companies, legal advisors, supervisory authorities, parties involved in company acquisitions or the establishment of joint ventures). The legal basis for the disclosure is then Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b or lit. f GDPR.
(3) Details of disclosure to third parties
a) Payment processing of the app purchase via Microsoft Store
Our app uses a payment service provided by Microsoft Corporation that allows us to offer the purchase of the app itself.
Personal data processed to process purchases is processed by Microsoft as described in the Microsoft Store Privacy Policy.
b) Microsoft Email Support
We use Microsoft Exchange for our email support. The potential data transfer includes your email address as well as any personal data that may be present in the support request.
The provider of this product is the US company Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA.
(4) Consent
In addition, we will only disclose your personal data to third parties if you have given your express consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.
2. Conditions for the transfer of personal data to third parties in third countries
In the course of our business relationships, your personal data may be transferred or disclosed to third party companies. These may also be located outside the European Economic Area (EEA), i.e. in third countries. Such processing takes place exclusively for the fulfillment of contractual and business obligations and for the maintenance of your business relationship with us (legal basis is Art. 6 (1) lit b or lit f in each case in conjunction with Art. 44 ff. GDPR). We will inform you about the respective details of the transfer in the following at the relevant points.
Some third countries are certified by the European Commission as having a level of data protection comparable to the EEA standard through so-called adequacy decisions (a list of these countries and a copy of the adequacy decisions can be obtained here). However, in other third countries to which personal data may be transferred, there may not be a consistently high level of data protection due to a lack of legal provisions. If this is the case, we ensure that data protection is adequately guaranteed. This is possible via binding company regulations, standard data protection clauses of the European Commission for the protection of personal data pursuant to Art. 46 1 , 2 lit. c GDPR (the standard data protection clauses of 2021 are available here), certificates or recognized codes of conduct. Please contact our data protection officer (see D. 1.) if you would like more information on this.
3. Details of the transfer to third countries
a) Payment processing of the app purchase via Microsoft Store.
Our app uses a payment service provided by Microsoft Corporation that allows us to offer the purchase of the app itself.
Personal data processed to process purchases is processed by Microsoft as described in the Microsoft Store Privacy Policy.
b) Microsoft Email Support
We use Microsoft Exchange for our email support. The potential data transfer includes your email address as well as any personal data that may be present in the support request.
The provider of this product is the US company Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA.
Despite the settings we have made that provide for data processing within the EU, it cannot be ruled out that Microsoft may also process your personal data in America.
Since the European Court of Justice declared the EU-US Privacy Shield decision invalid in its ruling of 15.07.2020 in the Schrems II case (C-311/18), no adequate level of protection may currently be assumed for a data transfer to the USA.
Therefore, the basis of data processing at Microsoft in the U.S. can only take place via standard data protection clauses prepared by the EU Commission, which are intended to ensure that your personal data is also processed outside the EU in accordance with European data protection regulations.
Find more information about the standard data protection clauses included by Microsoft and about data processing when using Microsoft products.
In order to act in a data protection-compliant manner when using Microsoft products, we have taken further measures in the product settings to increase the level of data protection.
Processing location: United States
