III. Preamble

This app is intended for use together with the Securepoint MDM Toolbox app. The app is a plugin that is required on devices to support the additional MDM functions of Securepoint.

The app allows the administrator of your organization to request the location of the device in case the device is lost or stolen. When a device is located by the administrator, it transmits its location (longitude and latitude or possible errors) to our company's servers. The app will notify the user when this happens. The device does not routinely record the location, only when the administrator specifically requests it. After the request, the location is saved for a maximum of one hour.

User Privacy: We will never use user data before getting consent under any circumstances.

IV. Location determination

1. Scope of processing personal data

When a device is located by the administrator, the device transmits its location (longitude, latitude or potential errors) to our company's servers for location determination. The following data is stored in the process:

Longitude
Latitude
Error messages

2. Legal basis for processing personal data

Art. 6 Para. 1 (f) GDPR is the legal basis for processing personal data.

3. Purpose of data processing

With the help of the location data, the device can be localized in case of loss.

Art. 6 Para. 1 (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data, which is necessary for the performance of a contract.

Art. 6 Para. 1 (a) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis insofar as we obtain the concerned data subject's consent to process personal data.

Art. 6 Para. 1 (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis where data processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party. This also applies in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.

Art. 6 Para. 1 (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis where processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject.

4. Duration of storage

The stored data is deleted after the expiration of one hour.

5. Objection and elimination options

The personal data of data subjects are deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of data storage no longer applies. Data storage beyond this purpose is permissible if provided for in EU regulations, laws or other directives issued by the EU or national legislator to which the controller is subject. Data will also be deleted or blocked on expiry of a storage period specified by the named standards, unless continued data storage is necessary for the purpose of contract conclusion or contract performance.

V. Location determination - server log creation

When the location data is transferred, a server request is performed. This generates log data in the server.

1. Description and scope of data processing

When transmitting the location data, our system automatically collects data and information from the device of the caller. The following data is collected in this process:

(1) Information about the type of device and the version used
(2) The operating system of the user
(3) The user's Internet service provider
(4) The IP address of the user
(5) The date and time of access

This data is also stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.

2. Legal basis for data processing

Art. 6 Para 1 (f) GDPR is the legal basis for temporary data and log file storage.

3. Purpose of data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the transmission of data. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.


The storage in log files takes place in order to ensure the functionality of the service. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

These purposes reflect our justified interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 (f) GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

Data are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected.

In the context of storing data in log files, this is the case after a maximum of 35 days. Data may be stored beyond these time periods. In this event the users' IP addresses are erased or alienated so that an allocation of the requesting client is no longer possible.

5. Objection and elimination options

The collection of data for the provision of the service and the storage of the data in log files is mandatory for the operation of the app. Consequently, there is no possibility of objection on the part of the user.

VI. Logs of the app for problem diagnosis

The diagnostic function can be activated in the app via opt-in. Log files are then automatically created and saved in the app. This data can be viewed in the app. Furthermore, this data can be made available to third parties via a share dialog.

1. Description and scope of data processing

The following data is collected in the log:

(1) App version number
(2) Device manufacturer
(3) Device model
(4) Android version
(5) MDM enrollment type
(6) Miscellaneous errors and status messages

2. Legal basis for data processing

Art. 6 Para 1 (b) and (f) GDPR are the legal basis for the data storage.

3. Purpose of data processing

The storage of diagnostic data is intended to help diagnose and fix any problems in the functioning of the app.

These purposes reflect our justified interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 (f) GDPR.

4. Duration of storage and elimination options

The data can be deleted in the app by the user. Furthermore, the data is deleted when the memory limit is exceeded or the app is deleted.

VII. Help page - server log creation

When the help page is opened, a server request is performed. This generates log data in the server.

1. Description and scope of data processing

Each time our website is called up, our system automatically collects data and information from the calling device. The following data is collected:

(1) Information about the browser type and version used
(2) The operating system of the user
(3) The user's Internet service provider
(4) The IP address of the user
(5) The date and time of access

This data is also stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.

2. Legal basis for data processing

Art. 6 Para 1 (b) and (f) GDPR is the legal basis for temporary data and log file storage.

3. Purpose of data processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.

The storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

These purposes reflect our justified interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 (f) GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

Data are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected. In the context of collecting data to make the website available to the user, this is the case when the session is terminated.

In the context of storing data in log files, this is the case after a maximum of 35 days. Data may be stored beyond these time periods. In this event the users' IP addresses are erased or alienated so that an allocation of the requesting client is no longer possible.

5. Objection and elimination options

The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files is mandatory for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility of objection on the part of the user.

The right to erasure shall not apply to the extent that processing is necessary:

(1) for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;

9. Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision:

(2) is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or

(3) is based on your explicit consent.
