    Scope Of The Application

    For us, the protection of personal data has the highest priority. Therefore, we would like to inform you at this point about which data we collect and when and how we handle your personal data. This privacy policy describes the collection and use of personal data when using our apps, regardless of the type of device and operating system (hereinafter, collectively: "App").

    General Information On Data Processing

    Scope of the processing of personal data

    We process personal data only to the extent necessary to provide a functional app. The processing of personal data takes place regularly only with the consent of the data subject or on the basis of other legal provisions that permit data processing. 

    A distinction must be made between two categories of personal data:

    • personal data of the App users (e.g. physicians, nurses, wound specialists in small practices or independant practice, etc.) - (hereinafter referred to as "user data")
    • personal data of third parties (e.g. patients), which, depending on the agreement with the controller, are integrated into the App either manually or automatically by users - (hereinafter referred to as "patient data").

    Patient data also includes personal data of a special category in accordance with Art. 9 GDPR (hereinafter "sensitive data").

    Legal Basis For The Processing Of Personal Data

    Unless otherwise stipulated elsewhere, the following applies to the legal basis for data processing:

    Legal basis for the processing of user data

    In order to use our App and the services provided through it, you enter into a contract with us by accepting our terms and conditions. We collect and process your personal data for the purpose of fulfilling the contract in accordance to Art. 6 para. 1 b) GDPR. 

    In addition, we process personal data: as far as this is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation, which we are subject to, in accordance to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR; insofar as this is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party and does not outweigh the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the person concerned, in accordance to Art. Art. 6 para. 1 f) GDPR. 

    Legal basis for processing patient data

    We do not collect patient data. You may only integrate patient data into our App on a suitable legal basis, regardless of whether this is done manually or automatically. The legal basis for the processing of personal data is, among others, from Art. 6 GDPR “Necessary for the performance of the contract” and “Legitimate interests”. If the consent of the data subject is required, you must obtain it. Furthermore, you are obliged, among other things, to inform the data subjects whose data you integrate into our app, in accordance with. Art. 13 - 14 GDPR.

    We process patient data mainly as a processor based on the basis of the agreement concluded with you pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR.

    Data Deletion And Storage Period

    In principle, unless otherwise stated, your personal data will only be stored until the purpose of the collection and storage no longer applies. In accordance with your consent, data may also be stored for longer, as long as you do not withdraw your consent.

    Furthermore, data may be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other regulations to which we are subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need to continue storing the data for the purpose of concluding or fulfilling a contract.

    In the event of termination - for whatever reason - of the contract between the user and the provider, the provider shall keep all content, information and (personal) data uploaded by the user available for retrieval by the user for a further 60 days after termination. After expiry of this period, the aforementioned content will be irrevocably deleted or anonymized in accordance with data protection regulations.

    Transfer To Third Countries

    Unless otherwise stated, all data processing takes place within the EU, the EEA countries or in Switzerland. The data transmission to Switzerland, as well as the data processing in Switzerland, are based on the appropriateness decision of the European Commission  2000/518 / EC. 

    Data processed for billing purposes (name, surname, username and financial identification data) and for analytics purpose (device, OS and app information) are processed via third party providers. Such data may be transferred outside of the EU geographical area and can be processed partially or completely in the countries of the respective branch and according to the respective data protection regulations.

    A transfer of personal data outside the EU or the EEA will only take place on the basis of an adequacy decision of the European Commission, or in accordance with standard contractual clauses of the European Commission.

    Data Usage When Using The App

    When you register within the app, we collect the following user data: first name, last name, organisation’s name, e-mail address, password. 

    We collect this data to ensure that our App is available to you. 

    If you access patient data via the App, we store this information for a limited period of time in the log files, as far as this is necessary for security purposes.

    These purposes also include our legitimate interest, which justifies data processing in accordance to Art. 6 Par. 1 f) GDPR.

    Use Of Cookies

    We only use so-called "technical cookies" in our app, which allow us to recognize you as a user with each access. Such data is not passed on to third parties.

    Firebase & Google Analytics for Mobile

    For Apps on iOS and Android we use Google’s Firebase and Google Analytics for Mobile. User data is transmitted in an anonymized form to Google. Our Apps use identification for mobile devices, including the Google Advertising ID (“GAID”) and the ID for Advertising for iOS (“IDFA”), as well as technologies similar to cookies for the use execution of the Analytics for mobile service.

    We use Firebase and Google Analytics to analyze and constantly improve the use of our Product. Through the statistics we are able to improve our service and make it more interesting for users. We also use Zoho Desk and Zoho Campaigns for processing support tickets. In those special cases in which personal data is transmitted to the USA, it is based on the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) of the European Commission.

    Newsletter

    If we have collected your e-mail address as part of the purchase of our services, we may send you email newsletters for our offers that are similar to the services you have already purchased from us, provided you have not objected to receiving such newsletters. The legal basis for this is § 7 Abs. 3 UWG. For example, those newsletters may include updates on new product features, additional services we propose in the field of the product you’re using or events on which updates or product demonstrations will be held.

    You can object to receiving newsletters from us at any time, without any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic tariffs (i.e. the costs of your internet provider, for example). We will inform you about the right to object when we collect your email address and in the respective newsletter.

    Exceptions

    The right of erasure does not exist insofar as the processing is necessary

    • to exercise the right of freedom of expression and information;

    If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, your personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.

    Right To Withdraw Consent

    You have the right to withdraw your expressed consent at any time. The consent withdrawal does not affect the legality of the processing carried out previously on the basis of the consent.
