  1. No data exchange through the use of the app

We have configured our app so that it does not send any data to our servers. This also includes metadata that arise in the context of server log files.

All processing operations take place exclusively locally on your device; deleting the app leads to the deletion of all data processed with the app at the same time.

 

  1. Access authorizations in the end device

For the full functionality of the app it is necessary that you grant access rights. At this point, we explicitly point out that even if access rights are granted, no data is exchanged with our systems.

You can decide in how far you want to grant access rights for this app on your device. The granting of access rights allows the app to access certain features or data on your device, the data will only be processed locally on your device through the app. In this respect, you give the app your consent to process data locally on your device (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke the granted access rights at any time, for this purpose call up the settings with app authorizations on your device. Depending on the operating system, you can find the rights management in the settings under Apps or Authorizations. You can find more detailed information on this in the operating instructions for your device or operating system.

 

Access to and data transfer via Bluetooth
The app requires access to the Bluetooth interface in your device. This is necessary to communicate data with the hardware (the robot PROXI).

 

Note on Bluetooth access in Android-based systems
When using Bluetooth on devices with the Android operating system, geolocation rights are required. This is not specified by our app, but by the operating system. The app does not perform any positioning at this point and does not process any geolocation data.

 

  1. Your rights under the General Data Protection Regulation


Every natural person has certain rights, these are defined in Articles 15 to 21 and 77 of the GDPR. In principle, you have the following rights that you can claim from us.

Right to revoke a given consent according to Art. 7 Para. 3 GDPR You can revoke a given consent to us at any time without giving reasons with effect for the future.

Right to information according to Art. 15 GDPR (restrictions possible according to § 34 BDSG) You have the right to request information about the data processed by you and the purposes of the processing at any time.

Right to correction according to Art. 16 GDPR If you discover that we are processing incorrect or incomplete personal data, you have the right to correction.

Right to deletion according to Art. 17 GDPR (restrictions possible according to § 35 BDSG) You have the right at any time to request the deletion of your personal data that we process about you. If complete deletion is not possible, for example because we have to meet statutory retention requirements or we can assert legitimate interests for other reasons , we will restrict your data until these reasons no longer apply .

Right to restriction of processing according to Art. 18 GDPR You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice. 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 check this. For the duration of the test, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
  • If the processing of your personal data happened / happens unlawfully, you can request the restriction of the data processing instead of the deletion.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you need them to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of being deleted.
  • If you have lodged an objection in accordance with Art. 21 Paragraph 1 GDPR, your interests and ours must be weighed up. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data - apart from its storage - may only be used with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest processed by the European Union or a member state.

Right to data portability according to Art. 20 GDPR You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another person responsible, this will only be done if it is technically feasible.

If your personal data are processed in order to operate direct mail, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with such direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will then no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection according to Art. 21 Paragraph 2 GDPR).
