  5. In detail DIGIBURN uses the following tools:
    1. Google Firebase
      In the mobile app we use Firebase (https://www.firebase.com/), a framework from Google’s subsidiary Firebase, based in San Francisco, CA, USA, through which we track and manage the following real-time functions

      • We use Firebase Crashlytics to track app crashes as they occur and to prevent future crashes. In the event of an app crash, a report is generated that includes the type and operating system of the device, recent activity in the app, and geolocation in pseudonymous form and sent to Google. For information on the functionality of Crashlytics, please visit https://firebase.google.com/products/crashlytics/.
      • The mobile app uses Firebase Remote Config to allow us to change the app on the devices on which it is installed without having to completely reinstall the app in the respective App Store. To do this, the device information, language, country, and regional settings are transferred to Google in the USA and processed there. Information about the functionality of Remote Config can be found at https://firebase.google.com/products/remote-config/
        For all Firebase services mentioned, only anonymized or pseudonymized user data is transmitted to Firebase (Google). The Firebase privacy policy is available at https://www.firebase.com/terms/privacy-policy.html and information about the specific data used in the mentioned services can be found at https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
        The legal basis for the use of Firebase is our legitimate interest in maintaining Moodpath permanently and evaluating its performance according to article 6 paragraph 1 GDPR.
    2. Branch Metrics (only for Digiburn users in the United States of America/USA)
      Our app uses Branch Metrics which is operated by Branch Metrics Inc. 2443 Ash Street, Palo Alto, CA 94306, USA. This service is an open-source solution, which allows us to generate smart links to content within an app for statistical analysis and for marketing activities (the latter only in the USA). This can be done with appropriate software development kits (SDKs) for web, iOS, and Android operating systems. In the course of providing the service and its features, Branch Metrics collects data such as operating system and version, timestamp, API key (application identification key), application version, device model, manufacturer and identification number, iOS identification key for advertising, iOS identification key for vendors, Android identification key for advertising, IP address and network status. The above data is collected and encrypted for this purpose only.
      The legal basis for this is Article 6 Paragraph 1 lit. A GDPR.
      How can I prevent this? You can deactivate this collection for your device via this link https://branch.app.link/device-opt-out or generally restrict the use of certain data in your Android or iOS device.
    3. For sending emails in the context of creating, verifying and managing your personal, optional Digiburn account we use Mailgun (535 Mission St., 14th Floor San Francisco, CA 94105, USA).

XVI. Confidentiality

  1. Personal data is subject to confidentiality. It is forbidden for employees to perform unauthorized collection, processing or use of personal data. Any processing performed by an unauthorized employee entrusted to him/her in the performance of his/her duties is unauthorized. The “need to know” principle applies: Employees can only access personal data if and to the extent necessary for their respective tasks. This requires careful division and separation of roles and responsibilities, as well as their implementation and maintenance within the scope of authorization concepts.
  2. In the cases of processing of special categories of personal data (sensitive personal data) for the purposes, indicated in art. 9 (2) (h) of the General Regulation, those data are processed by or under the responsibility of a professional subject to the obligation of professional secrecy under Union or Member State law or rules established by national competent bodies
  3. Employees are not authorized to disclose personal information to unauthorized persons or in any other way or to use them for personal or economic purposes. Company managers must inform their employees of the obligation to protect the privacy of the data when they start work. This obligation shall remain in effect also after the employment of the employee concerned has ended.
  4. Personal data must be protected against unauthorized access, unauthorized processing or disclosure, as well as accidental loss or destruction at any time. This applies irrespective of the processing of data electronically or in paper form.
  5. Before implementing new processes or data processing, especially new information systems, all technical and organizational measures to protect personal data must be defined and implemented. These measures must be appropriate to the current technology standards, the risks arising from the processing and the need for data protection (defined by the classification process). The responsible department can consult with the corporate data protection coordinator. The technical and organizational measures for the protection of personal data are part of the management of the information safety of the Company and must be consistent with the technical changes and the organizational changes.

XVII. Violation of the security of personal data

  1. The proper handling of personal data breaches is essential as the General Regulation provides for a very strict reporting requirement for data breaches. In the case of data security breaches, there are legal obligations to notify the supervising authority and the data subjects.
    1. “Personal data breach” means a security breach that results in accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access to personal data that is transmitted, stored or otherwise processed. The breach of data security is a breach of data security and data protection where it is probable or proven that personal data is known to unauthorized persons. Data security breaches often involve significant risks to the person concerned, such as damage to reputation, even credit card abuse or identity theft, as well as serious shortcomings for the company.
    2. The General Regulation provides for a mandatory reporting requirement for data breaches. Art. 33 of the General Regulation (notification of the supervisory authority) and Art. 34 of that Regulation (for the notification of data subjects) determine when such an obligation is applicable.
  2. In the case of a personal data breach, the controller shall without undue delay and, where feasible, not later than 72 hours after having become aware of it, notify the personal data breach to the supervisory authority competent in accordance with Art. 55, unless the personal data breach is unlikely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons. Where the notification to the supervisory authority is not made within 72 hours, it shall be accompanied by reasons for the delay.
  3. The processor shall notify the controller without undue delay after becoming aware of a personal data breach. The notification referred to in paragraph 1 shall at least:
    1. Describe the nature of the personal data breach including where possible, the categories and approximate number of data subjects concerned, and the categories and approximate number of personal data records concerned.
    2. Communicate the name and contact details of the data protection coordinator or other contact point where more information can be obtained.
    3. Describe the likely consequences of the personal data breach.
    4. Describe the measures taken or proposed to be taken by the controller to address the personal data breach, including, where appropriate, measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects.
      Where, and in so far as, it is not possible to provide the information at the same time, the information may be provided in phases without undue further delay.
  4. The controller shall document any personal data breaches, comprising the facts relating to the personal data breach, its effects and the remedial action taken. That documentation shall enable the supervisory authority to verify compliance with Art. 33 of the General Regulation.
  5. When the personal data breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the controller shall communicate the personal data breach to the data subject without undue delay.
  6. The communication to the data subject presented above shall describe in simple manner the nature of breach in the security of personal data, covering at least:
    1. Communicates the name and contact details of the data protection coordinator or other contact point where more information can be obtained
    2. Describe the likely consequences of the violation of personal data.
    3. Describes the measures taken or suggested by the controller to handle the personal data breach, including, where appropriate, mitigation measures for possible adverse effects.
  7. The above message to the data subject is not required if any of the following conditions are met:
    1. The controller has implemented appropriate technical and organizational protection measures, and those measures were applied to the personal data affected by the personal data breach, in particular those that render the personal data unintelligible to any person who is not authorized to access it, such as encryption.
    2. The controller has taken subsequent measures which ensure that the high risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects referred to in Art. 34(1) of the General Regulation is no longer likely to materialize.
    3. It would involve disproportionate effort. In such a case, there shall instead be a public communication or similar measure whereby the data subjects are informed in an equally effective manner.
  8. If the controller has not already communicated the personal data breach to the data subject, the supervisory authority, having considered the likelihood of the personal data breach resulting in a high risk, may require it to do so or may decide that at least one of the conditions listed above is met (ref. Art. 34(3) of the General Regulation).
