1. Privacy at a glance
General information
The following information provides a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website. Personal data is any data that can be used to identify you personally. For detailed information on data protection, please refer to our privacy policy set out below this text.
Data collection on this website
Who is responsible for the data collection on this website? The data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. You can find their contact details in the section “Information on the responsible party” in this privacy policy.
How do we collect your data? Some data is collected when you provide it to us. This may, for example, be data you enter in a contact form. Other data is collected automatically or with your consent when you visit the website, via our IT systems. This is mainly technical data (e.g. internet browser, operating system or time of the page request). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter this website.
What do we use your data for? Some of the data is collected to ensure the website is provided without errors. Other data may be used to analyse your user behaviour.
What rights do you have regarding your data? You have the right at any time to receive information free of charge about the origin, recipients and purpose of your stored personal data. You also have a right to request the rectification or erasure of this data. If you have given consent to data processing, you can revoke this consent at any time for the future. You also have the right, under certain circumstances, to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. Furthermore, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
2. Hosting
We host the content of our website with the following provider:
External hosting
This website is hosted externally. The personal data collected on this website is stored on the servers of the host(s). This may primarily include IP addresses, contact requests, meta and communication data, contract data, contact data, names, website access and other data generated via a website. We use the following host: Hostinger.
External hosting is carried out for the purpose of fulfilling our contract with our potential and existing customers (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and in the interest of a secure, fast and efficient provision of our online offering by a professional provider (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Where appropriate consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. Our host will only process your data to the extent necessary to fulfil its performance obligations and will follow our instructions regarding this data.
3. General information and mandatory information
Data protection
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy. We point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
Information on the responsible party
The party responsible for data processing on this website is: Josua Heß, Eigenheimstr. 22, 09465 Sehmatal-Cranzahl, Germany. Phone: +49 160 5914528. Email: info@inneres-echo.com. The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data.
Storage duration
Unless a more specific storage period is stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for the data processing no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for erasure or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, deletion takes place after these reasons cease to apply.
General information on the legal bases
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data where it is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation, on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Recipients of personal data
In the course of our business activities, we work with various external parties. This sometimes requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only pass on personal data to external parties if this is necessary within the scope of fulfilling a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so, if we have a legitimate interest in the transfer pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using processors, we only pass on personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement.
Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. If you object, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims (objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR).
If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection under Art. 21(2) GDPR).
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged breach. This right to complain exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only take place where technically feasible.
Access, rectification and erasure
Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, if applicable, a right to rectification or erasure of this data. For this and for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to do so. The right to restriction of processing exists, among other things, if you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, if the processing was/is unlawful, if we no longer need your data but you need it to assert legal claims, or if you have lodged an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR.
SSL/TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address bar of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line. When SSL/TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Objection to advertising emails
We hereby object to the use of contact data published within the scope of the imprint obligation for sending advertising and information material not expressly requested. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example through spam emails.
4. Data collection on this website
Contact and support form
If you send us enquiries via a form, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact data you provide there, will be stored by us or our form service provider for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent. This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of the requests addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
The data you enter in the form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
Enquiry by email or phone
If you contact us by email or phone, your enquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, request), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent. This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
5. Waitlist / newsletter
If you would like to join the waitlist, we require your email address. We use this data exclusively to inform you about the launch of the app and do not pass it on to third parties for other purposes. Processing is based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke the consent given at any time, for example by sending us a message. The lawfulness of the data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.
The service providers used to operate this website and the forms may also process data outside the EU; in these cases, we base the transfer on appropriate safeguards (e.g. EU standard contractual clauses).
6. “Inneres Echo” app: synchronisation via iCloud
The „Inneres Echo“ app stores your entries locally on your device by default. Cross-device synchronisation via Apple iCloud is optional and disabled by default. It uses your device’s iCloud account; no separate account with us is created for this purpose.
If you enable synchronisation in the app settings, the data you record in the app – including health data within the meaning of Art. 9 GDPR – is synchronised via your private iCloud (Apple CloudKit, “Private Database”) between your Apple devices (e.g. iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch). The data resides in your personal iCloud account; we as the provider have no access to it.
The legal basis for synchronising your health data is your explicit consent, which you give by enabling the feature (Art. 6(1)(a) in conjunction with Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR). You can disable synchronisation again at any time in the app settings; your data then remains only locally on the respective device.
Storage and transmission take place in encrypted form via Apple’s servers (Apple Inc. or Apple Distribution International Ltd.). Apple processes the data as part of the iCloud service; in this respect, Apple’s privacy policy applies. If you have enabled “Advanced Data Protection” in your device’s iCloud settings, the synchronised data is additionally end-to-end encrypted, so that not even Apple has access to the content.
