We process your data within DiGA for the following purposes:
- For the intended use of the digital health application by the users (esp. med. determination) according to § 4 para. 2 p. 1 no. 1 DiGAV.

If you are a self-payer or use a voucher code, selected data is processed to bill you for our services.
If legal retention periods exist, we store the data to meet our legal obligations.
In rare cases, data is stored for the defense of legal claims or fraud prevention.
In the following, we describe the purposes for which we process personal data with the medidux™ app and the legal basis on which we do so.
5.1 Registration in the medidux™ app.
When you register in the medidux™ app, we collect the above-mentioned and recorded data about you. Some of this information (e.g. name and email address) is mandatory for successful registration.
The processing is carried out for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, which take place at your request, in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (1) lit. b DSGVO. We process information that is not required for the execution of the contract on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (1) a DSGVO.
5.2 Processing of usage data in the medidux™ app
Usage data is logged for statistical purposes, for backup purposes, and for troubleshooting. The basis for the processing is a balancing of interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (1) (f) DSGVO, which always takes into account your legitimate interests.
For this purpose, your data is stored and processed on our servers. If you use the medidux™ app via different end devices, we synchronize your data between your end devices via our servers.
The basis for this processing is the fulfillment of our contractual obligation to you, and is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (1) (b) DSGVO and, if applicable, in accordance with your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (1) (a) DSGVO.
We generally process your health data exclusively in accordance with Art. 9 (2) lit. a DSGVO if and insofar as we have received your consent to do so.
5.3 Contact and support
Our offer enables you to contact us. This is possible, for example, by using the telephone number provided or by sending us an e-mail. The information you provide when contacting us, such as name, address, e-mail address and telephone number, will be stored in order to process your request and any subsequent correspondence. The processing is carried out either for the fulfillment of a contract Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR or on the basis of a balancing of interests according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, which always takes your interests into account.
5.4 Anonymization of personal data
We use collected data for other purposes (e.g. scientific evaluation, improvement of the medidux™ app and its stability) only after we have anonymized this data, i.e. when this data no longer allows identification of natural persons.
6. Recipients of personal data
We do not transfer your personal data to third parties without their consent, unless such transfer is permitted by law and necessary for the provision of our medidux™ app services.
When we use contract processing, such as hosting and other services, and transfer personal data to contractors for this purpose, we select them carefully, agree with them on data protection in contract processing agreements, and instruct and monitor them in accordance with applicable regulations.
To provide the service, we use the Open Telekom Cloud, in which your data is stored. The operator is T-Systems International GmbH (Hahnstraße 43d, 60528 Frankfurt am Main, Germany). Your data will be processed exclusively in Germany.
For the transmission of e-mails in the context of app use, we use the services of rapidmail (rapidmail GmbH, Wentzingerstraße 21 79106 Freiburg). Your data will be processed exclusively in Germany.
For the transmission of SMS in the context of app use, we use the services of Sinch (Sinch AB (publ), Lindhagensgatan 74, 112 18 Stockholm, Sweeden). Your data will be processed exclusively in EU.
7. Storage period and deletion
Personal data shall be kept for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose(s) for which they were collected under the Regulation.
We store your data even after the original purpose for which it was collected has ceased to apply, only if we are obliged to store the data for other reasons, for example for archiving purposes (e.g. under commercial or tax law).
This results in the following deletion periods:
- Health data (until revocation), at the latest when the provision of medidux™ ends.
- Registration data (until deletion of the account – which is to be understood as revocation of consent in this case), alternatively at the latest with the termination of the provision of medidux™.
- Your data on the device will only be present until the app is deleted from the device. Alternatively, local data will also be deleted upon successful login by means of other usage data or optional active logout in the device. By deleting data on the device, the data is still available on the medidux™ server for recovery.
8. Transfer of personal data to third countries
There is no transfer of personal data to third countries.
9. Data subject rights
If personal data of yours is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and, in addition to the right to revoke the consent you have given to us, you have the following rights vis-à-vis the person responsible:

9.1 Right of objection
You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data relating to you which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The controller shall no longer process the personal data concerning you unless he/she can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.
If the personal data concerning you is processed for the purposes of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purposes of such marketing; this also applies to profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.

The supervisory authority to which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant* of the status and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Article 78 GDPR.
10. No obligation to provide your data
There is no obligation to provide us with your data. However, it is possible that we need your data to perform a contract, e.g. if you wish to purchase one or more products on our website.
If you do not provide us with the personal data required for this and requested by us, about which you will be informed in the context of this data protection declaration, we may not be able to enter into a contract with you or fulfill a contract already concluded.
If you also prevent us from receiving data that is required to use our website, e.g. through technical measures, it is possible that you will not be able to use our website or not be able to use it to its full extent.
