II. Use of personal data A. When do we collect your personal data?
We collect and process your personal data as data controller when you use the App and use the associated services.
When you use the App for the first time, the App asks for certain personal data from your mobile device to use (such as the location of the device, access to the camera of the device, etc.). You can change these settings at any time in the settings of your mobile device. Keep in mind that changing this setting can affect the functioning of the App. B. What personal data can we collect?

You have the following rights: Right of access and copy: if you wish, you can access your personal data and obtain a copy of it; Right of rectification or adaptation: if you believe that we have incorrect data about you, you can let us know and we will adjust it for you; you can also make changes yourself in the Customer Portal; Right to erasure (right to be forgotten): if you wish, you can ask us to delete your personal data.

The exercise of the above rights is subject to certain exceptions to protect the public interest, our interests, and the interests of other individuals. When you submit a request to exercise your rights, we will first verify your identity by requesting a copy of your identity card. We do this to prevent your data from falling into the wrong hands.
The exercise of your rights is generally free of charge. If your request is clearly unfounded or excessive, we may charge you a reasonable fee in light of the administrative costs we incur. In that case, however, we may also choose not to comply with your request. You will always be informed of the reasons for this. In any case, we will inform you of the outcome of your request within a period of four weeks (for simple requests) or three months (for complex or multiple requests) at the latest.
