A. Data protection for the Loveworkz app

A. Introduction

Thommy B. AGC (hereinafter jointly referred to as "the company", "we" or "us") takes the protection of your personal data seriously and would like to inform you about data protection in the company. With the entry into force of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679; hereinafter: "GDPR"), additional obligations have been imposed on us to ensure the protection of personal data of the person affected by processing (we also refer to you as the data subject hereinafter as "user", "you", "you", "customer" or "data subject").

Insofar as we decide either alone or jointly with others on the purpose and means of data processing, this includes above all the obligation to inform you about the type, scope, purpose, duration and legal basis of the processing, see Art. 13 & Art. 14 GDPR. With this privacy policy, we inform you about how your personal data is processed by us.

B. Fundamentals

1. definitions

In accordance with Art. 4 GDPR, this privacy policy is based on the following definitions:

- "Personal data" according to Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ("data subject"). A person is identifiable if they can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, an online identifier, location data or information relating to their physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity. The identifiability can also be provided by linking such information or other additional knowledge. The origin, form or embodiment of the information is irrelevant (photos, video or audio recordings can also contain personal data).

- "Controller" according to Art. 4 No. 7 GDPR is 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.

This includes, in particular, the collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure, dissemination, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction of personal data, or alteration of the purposes for which they were originally processed.

- "Processor" according to Art. 4 No. 8 GDPR is 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. In terms of data protection law, a processor is not a third party.

- "Consent" according to 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.

- "Third party" according to Art. 4 No. 10 GDPR is any natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data; this also includes other legal entities belonging to the group.

2. amendment of the privacy policy

As part of the further development of data protection law and technological or organizational changes, our data protection information is regularly reviewed to determine whether it needs to be adapted or supplemented. You will be informed of any changes.

3. no obligation to provide personal data

The conclusion of a contract is not made dependent on the provision of personal data. In principle, you are under no legal or contractual obligation to provide us with your personal data. However, it is possible that certain services can only be provided to a limited extent or not at all if you do not provide the necessary data. If this is the case, you will be informed of this separately.

C. Information about the processing of your data

1. the collection of personal data concerning you

(1) Personal data about you is collected when you use our app.

(2) Personal data is all data that relates to you personally. This includes your name, your location data, your IP address, the device ID, the SIM card number, your address and e-mail address, images, but also your user behavior.

2. legal bases of data processing

(1) Processing of personal data is legal if the data processing falls under one of the following justifications:

- Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR ("consent"): Where the data subject has voluntarily, in an informed and unambiguous manner, indicated by a statement or other unambiguous affirmative act that he or she consents to the processing of personal data relating to him or her for one or more specific purposes;

- Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR: If the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract;

- Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR: If processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject

- Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR ("Legitimate interests"): If the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate (in particular legal or economic) interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or rights of the data subject (in particular where the data subject is a minor).

(2) Processing may also be based on several legal bases. Any applicable legal basis is expressly stated below.

3. data collected during the download

(1) When you download this app, the necessary personal data will be transmitted to the relevant app store. In particular, the e-mail address, the user name, the customer number of the downloading account, the individual device identification number, payment information and the time of the download are transmitted to the App Store.

4. data collected during use

(1) In order to be able to provide all the benefits of our app, it is necessary to collect the personal data determined by us and required for the operation of the app when you use it. We only collect this data if this is necessary for the fulfillment of the contract (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR). Furthermore, we collect data if this is necessary for the functionality of the app and your interest in the protection of your personal data does not outweigh this (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

- Data that you make available to us: To use the app, you need to create a user account. To do this, enter at least your login name.

- Contact form data: When contact forms are used, the data transmitted through them is processed, including gender, name, address, company, e-mail address and the time of transmission.

5. cookies

(1) We use cookies when operating our app. Cookies are small text files that are stored on the device memory of your mobile device and assigned to the mobile app you are using and through which certain information flows to the location that sets the cookie. Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses to your computer. They are used to make an app more user-friendly and effective.

(2) Cookies contain data that enable the device used to be recognized. In some cases, cookies only contain information on settings that are not personally identifiable. Cookies cannot directly identify a user.

(3) A distinction is made between session cookies, which are deleted as soon as you close your browser, and permanent cookies, which are stored beyond the individual session. In terms of their function, a distinction is made between cookies:

- Technical cookies: These are absolutely necessary to move within the app, use basic functions and ensure the security of the app; they do not collect information about you for marketing purposes, nor do they store which websites you have visited;

- Performance cookies: These collect information about how you use our app, which pages you visit and, for example, whether errors occur when using the app; they do not collect any information that could identify you - all information collected is anonymous and is only used to improve our app and find out what interests our users;

- Advertising cookies, targeting cookies: These are used to offer the app user needs-based advertising within the app or offers from third parties and to measure the effectiveness of these offers; advertising and targeting cookies are stored for a maximum of 13 months;

- Sharing cookies: These are used to improve the interactivity of our app with other services (e.g. social networks); sharing cookies are stored for a maximum of 13 months.

(4) Any use of cookies that is not absolutely technically necessary constitutes data processing that is only permitted with your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR. This applies in particular to the use of advertising, targeting or sharing cookies. In addition, we will only pass on your personal data processed by cookies to third parties if you have given your express consent to this in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

6. duration of data storage

(1) We delete your personal data as soon as it is no longer required for the purposes for which we collected or used it. We store your personal data for the duration of the usage or contractual relationship via the app. Your data will only be stored on our servers in Germany, subject to any disclosure.

(2) In the event of a pending legal dispute with you or other legal proceedings, the data may be stored beyond the specified period.

(3) Third parties engaged by us will store your data on their system for as long as is necessary for us in connection with the provision of the service in accordance with the respective order.

(4) Legal requirements for the storage and deletion of personal data remain unaffected by the above (e.g. § 257 HGB or § 147 AO). If the storage period prescribed by the statutory provisions expires, the personal data will be blocked or deleted unless further storage by us is necessary and there is a legal basis for this.

7. data security

We use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or against unauthorized access by third parties, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs and the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing as well as the existing risks of a data breach (including its probability and impact) for the data subject. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.

//8. Automated decision making

There is no intention to use the personal data collected from you for an automated decision-making process (including profiling).

9. change of purpose

(1) Your personal data will only be processed for purposes other than those described if this is permitted by law or if you have consented to the changed purpose of the data processing.

(2) In the event of further processing for purposes other than those for which the data was originally collected, we will inform you of the purposes prior to further processing and provide you with all other relevant information.

Thomas Busch - Thommy B. AGC
Cottastrasse 35, 70180 Stuttgart, Germany
Phone: 015253900587
E-Mail:

Thomas Busch - Thommy B. AGC
Cottastrasse 35, 70180 Stuttgart, Germany
Phone: 015253900587
E-mail: info@loveworkz.io (2) Please contact this contact point if you wish to assert your rights against us or if you have any questions or comments regarding the collection and processing of your personal data.

2. data collection when contact is made

If you contact us, we will store your e-mail address, your name and all other personal data that you have provided in the course of contacting us so that we can contact you to answer your question. This data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required. If there are statutory retention periods, the data will remain stored, but processing will be restricted.

F. Data processing by third parties

1. order data processing

(1) If contracted service providers are used for individual functions of our app, they will only act in accordance with our instructions. In accordance with Art. 28 GDPR, they are contractually obliged to comply with data protection regulations.

(2) The following categories of recipients, which are usually processors, may have access to your personal data:

- service providers for the operation of our app and the processing of the data stored or transmitted by the systems. The legal basis for the transfer is then Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b or lit. f GDPR, insofar as these are not processors;

- State authorities, insofar as this is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation. The legal basis for the transfer is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR;

- Persons employed to carry out our business operations. The legal basis for the transfer is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b or lit. f GDPR.

(3) We will only pass on your personal data to third parties if you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

(4) If we pass on your personal data to our subsidiaries, this is done on the basis of existing order processing relationships.

2. requirements for the transfer of personal data to third countries

(1) As part of our business relationships, your personal data may be passed on or disclosed to third-party companies. These may also be located outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Such processing takes place exclusively to fulfill contractual and business obligations and to maintain your business relationship. We will inform you about the respective details of the transfer at the relevant points below.

(2) The European Commission certifies that some third countries have a level of data protection comparable to the EEA standard by means of so-called adequacy decisions (a list of these countries and a copy of the adequacy decisions can be found here: http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/international-transfers/adequacy/index_en.html). 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 through binding corporate rules, standard contractual clauses of the European Commission for the protection of personal data, certificates or recognized codes of conduct. Please contact our data protection officer if you would like more information on this.

3. legal obligation to transmit data

In individual cases, we are subject to a legal obligation to provide lawfully collected personal data to third parties, in particular to public authorities, pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR).

You have the right under Art. 15 GDPR to obtain information about the personal data concerning you. This requires a request from you, which must be sent either by e-mail or by post to the addresses given above.

2. objection to data processing and withdrawal of consent

(1) In accordance with Art. 21 GDPR, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you.

The consequence of this is that we may no longer continue the data processing that was based on this consent.

(3) For notification, please contact the above-mentioned contact point.

In particular, you have the right to erasure if the data in question is no longer necessary for the purposes of collection or processing, if the data storage period has expired, if there is an objection or if the processing is unlawful. If you wish to make a request in this regard, please contact the contact point indicated above.

(2) To assert these rights, please contact the contact point specified above.

4. right to restriction of processing

(1) In accordance with Art. 18 GDPR, you have the right to demand that we restrict the processing of your personal data.

//++ Payment services

For the processing of our contractual or other legal relationships, we use certain payment service providers for payment transactions. In addition to the usual payment channels via banks and credit institutions, customers can use the service providers we offer. If you use these, your personal data (name, address, bank details, passwords, TANs, verification numbers) and details of the contract concluded will be transmitted to the payment service provider. This is the only way to ensure secure and functional payment processing. The payment service provider does not transmit the collected and processed personal data to us. It merely informs us whether our customers' payment was successful in the individual case. However, the payment service providers are authorized to transmit our customers' data to credit agencies. In all other respects, the terms and conditions and data protection provisions of the respective payment service provider apply, which you can find on the website of the service provider concerned.

Consent to the use of personal data may be withdrawn from the payment service provider at any time. The payment service provider may nevertheless be entitled to process, use and transmit the data with reference to its data protection provisions if this is absolutely necessary for contractual payment processing.

Purpose of processing: (pre-)contractual service fulfillment, effective and secure payment offers

Affected: (potential) customers, business and contractual partners

Data concerned:

//++ Affiliate networks

In some places on our website you will find affiliate links that direct you to third-party websites. We receive a commission from the respective third-party provider if you access their website via our link and use one of their services in the process. This requires us to be able to prove that you have reached the website of the respective third-party provider via our affiliate link. We therefore collect data on whether you have clicked on the affiliate links and, as a result, have concluded business transactions with the third-party provider and store this data until the commissions have been settled in full.

In addition, certain information may be added to the affiliate links for the aforementioned purpose, which is then stored either in a cookie or in the affiliate link itself. Such additional information may include, for example, the source website, the online identifier of our website or that of the third-party provider and the respective user, the type of affiliate link used, the type of offer and the time at which the link was used.

Personalized advertising can be deactivated via the following link: . You can also use your browser to delete cookies that have already been set and prevent the storage of future cookies.

//++ Messenger services

We use messenger services for communication purposes. Messenger services transmit text, image, video or contact files in real time. The services can also be used to transmit screens or to play online games. In order to use messenger services, the communication partners need the respective computer program and an Internet connection. This is used to exchange communication data in real time. If the communication partner is not online at the time the data is entered, the data is temporarily stored by the server of the messenger service and only transmitted to the recipient when they are online.

In some cases, messenger services use end-to-end encryption. This means that the transmitted files and content are only displayed to the respective communication partner and cannot be accessed by third parties. The provider itself only has access to the metadata of the communication (time, location, end device), but not to the content. Regular software updates should be installed to ensure that the data is encrypted.

Unless you have consented to the transmission of your contact details to the messenger service, they will not be transmitted for the first time. You have the option at any time to revoke your consent to be contacted via the Messenger service or to object to its use.

Purpose of processing: Marketing purposes and communication

Affected: (potential) customers, users of the website
