2. Collection and use of your data

2.1 Contact form

If you send us enquiries via our contact form, then your details on the contact form, including the contact data you entered there (name, email address, message), will be stored and used for the purpose of processing the enquiry. We collect these data in order to receive and process your enquiry (Art. 6 para. 1 (b) of the General Data Protection Act (GDPR)). If, as described above, we process your data for the purpose of receiving and processing your enquiries, then you are contractually obliged to make these data available to us. Without such data, we will not be in a position to receive and process your enquiries.

3. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC (“Google”). Google Analytics collects pseudonymous data from you about the use of our app, including your truncated IP address. These data are transferred to and stored on a Google server in the United States. Google will use this information to allow us to evaluate your use of the app, to compile reports on the use of the app and to generate other analyses and evaluations related to the use of the app and the Internet. Google will also transfer this information to third parties, if required to do so by law or if third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google Analytics will store your data for a period of 14 months. After this period ends, the data will be deleted and only aggregated statistics will be retained. For more information about how Google uses your information, please see Google’s Privacy Policy:https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

If you do not wish to receive the webpage analyses, you may deactivate Google Analytics using a browser add-on. You can download this browser add-on here: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de. Alternatively, you may object to the use of Google Analytics by clicking here ( here.)

The use of Google Analytics is based on our legitimate interest in a needs-based design, statistical evaluation and the efficient promotion of our app and on the fact that you do not have an overriding legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 (f) GDPR).

4. Automated individual decision-making or profiling measures

We do not use automated processing for making decisions or for profiling.

5. Disclosure of data

In general, your personal data will be disclosed without your express prior consent in the following situations only:

  • If it is necessary to clarify an unlawful use of our services or to pursue the judicial enforcement of rights, then personal data will be disclosed to the prosecuting authorities and, if necessary, to injured third parties. Such disclosure will occur, however, only if there are specific indicia of illegal or abusive behaviour. A disclosure can also be made if it serves the enforcement of terms of use or other agreements. We are also legally obliged to provide information to certain government bodies upon request, including prosecuting authorities, authorities that prosecute administrative offences or tax authorities.



The disclosure of these data is made on the basis of our legitimate interest in combating misuse, pursuing criminal offences and securing, asserting and enforcing claims and on the notion that you do not have an overriding legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 (f) GDPR) or on the basis of a legal obligation pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 (c) GDPR

  • We rely on contractually affiliated third parties and external service providers (“processors”) to provide the services. In those cases, personal information is shared with these processors to enable them to process it further. These processors are carefully selected and regularly reviewed by us to ensure that your rights and freedoms are protected. The processors may use the data exclusively for the purposes specified by us and are furthermore contractually obliged by us to treat your data exclusively in accordance with this data privacy statement and the German data protection laws. Specifically, we rely on the following processors:

  • Google LLC (Google Analytics)

  • Amazon Web Services EMEA (Amazon AWS)

  • Intercom (chat support, knowledge base, help centre)



The disclosure of data to processors is based on Art. 28 para. 1 GDPR, or alternatively on our legitimate interest in the economic and technical benefits associated with the deployment of specialised processors and the fact that your rights and interests in protecting your personal data are not overriding (Art. 6 para. 1 (f) GDPR).

We shall act to ensure that each transfer of personal data to third parties to the extent described above is carried out in accordance with this data privacy statement and the relevant data protection laws.


Any disclosure of personal data is justified by the fact that we have a legitimate interest in adjusting our corporate form in an effort to adjust to the economic and legal circumstances as required and that your rights and interests in the protection of your personal data are not overriding (Art. 6 para. 1 (f)f GDPR).

6. Erasure of your data

We will delete or render anonymous your personal data as soon as they are no longer required for the purposes for which we have collected or used them in accordance with the above sections. As a rule, we store your personal data for the duration of the usage or contractual relationship via the app, plus a period of 7 days during which time we will store backup copies following the erasure, unless such data are needed for a longer period of time based on legal reasons or for criminal prosecution or to secure, assert or enforce legal claims. If data must be retained for legal reasons, then such data will be blocked. In that case, the data will no longer be available for any other use.
