General information on data processing

On this page, we provide you with information regarding the processing of your personal data on our
website.

How we collect and use your personal data will depend on how you interact with us or the services you use.
We only collect, use or share your personal data where we have a legitimate purpose and a legal basis for
doing so.

What do we mean by ‘legal basis’?

Consent (Art. 6(1) (a) GDPR)– You have given us your consent to process your personal data for the specific
purpose we have explained to you. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. For further
information on how to withdraw consent, please see the ‘Exercising your rights’ subsections in the
subsequent sections of this Privacy Policy.

Contract (Art 6(1) (b) GDPR) – We need to use your data to fulfil a contract you have with us. Alternatively,
it’s necessary to use your data because we have asked you to, or you have taken yourself, specific steps
before entering that contract.

Legal Obligation (Art 6(1) (c) GDPR) – We need to use you’re your data to comply with the law.

Vital Interests (Art 6(1) (d) GDPR) – Processing your data is necessary to protect your vital interests or of
another person. For example, to prevent you from serious physical harm.

Public Task (Art 6(1) (e) GDPR) – Using your data is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in
the public interest, or because it is covered by a task set out in law, for example, for a statutory function.

Legitimate Interests (Art 6(1) (f) GDPR) – Processing your data is necessary to support a legitimate
interest we or another party has, only where this is not outweighed by your own interests.

Please note where your data is processed under the performance of a contract or for a legal obligation, if
you do not provide the data requested, we may be unable to provide you with our app.

Data sharing and international transfers

As explained throughout this Privacy Policy, we use various service providers to help us deliver our services
and keep your data secure. When we use these service providers, it is necessary for us to share your
personal data with them.

We have agreements in place with all our service providers that we share your data with that oblige them to
protect your data.

Where your personal data is shared outside the EU, we ensure that your personal data is given an
equivalent level of protection, either because the jurisdiction to which your data is transferred has an
‘adequate’ data protection standard according to the European Commission, or by using another safeguard
such as an enhanced contractual agreement, i.e. Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European
Commission (SCCs).

For example, where we use US service providers, we either rely on SCCs or the EU-US Data Protection
Framework, depending on the specific provider. You can request a copy of SCCs we have concluded with our
service providers by sending an email to the email address provided in this Privacy Policy.
