The protection of your personal data is of particular concern to us. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations (GDPR, Austrian TKG 2021) as well as this privacy policy.
1. Data Controller
The entity responsible for data processing in this app is: DenkStein Eiserner Vorhang
Fröhlerweg 53
4040 Linz, Austria
Email: office@eisernervorhang.eu
ZVR Number (Central Register of Associations): 615010797
2. Core Principle of the App: Offline Use & No Registration
This app can be used entirely without providing any personal data.
- No Registration: No user account creation is required.
- Offline Functionality: The app operates locally on your mobile device and does not transfer any data entered or generated by you to the club’s own servers.
3. Device Permissions (Camera)
In order to use the full functionality of the app, the following permission is required:
- Camera Access (Optional): The app requires access to your device’s camera solely for the purpose of scanning QR codes within the app.
- Processing: The image data is analyzed in real-time locally on your device. No photos or videos are permanently stored on your device or transmitted to any servers at any time. You can revoke this permission at any time in your operating system settings.
4. Use of Google ML Kit (Barcode Scanning)
For the barcode and QR code scanning functionality, this app uses the “Google ML Kit” software development kit (provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA).
- Local Processing: Image analysis during code scanning takes place entirely locally (“on-device”) on your mobile device. No image content or scanned text is transmitted to Google.
- Telemetry and Diagnostic Data: The Google ML Kit SDK occasionally contacts Google servers to transmit performance metrics, app specifications, device characteristics (e.g., model and operating system version), and error reports. This is used to maintain, troubleshoot, and improve the scanning service. This data is not associated with your person.
- Data transmission to Google is encrypted (HTTPS). For more information, please refer to Google’s privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy
5. External Links
Our app contains links that redirect to the official website of our association. When you click on such a link, you leave the app and open the website in your system browser. From this point on, the privacy policy of our website applies.
6. Your Rights
Since this app does not store any of your personal data on servers, we do not possess any data that could be assigned to requests for information, deletion, or correction. Nevertheless, under the GDPR, you generally have the rights to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation, and objection regarding the processing of your data. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Austrian Data Protection Authority (DSB).
