Privacy Policy

We appreciate your interest in appseder solutions and in our online services. The protection of your personal data is very important to us. You can generally use our website without providing any personal data. However, if you want to make full use of our services, it may be necessary to process personal data, for example if you use specific features such as creating an account or contacting us.

With this Privacy Policy, we would like to explain in a transparent way which personal data we process when you visit our website and use our services, for which purposes and on which legal basis this takes place, and which rights you have in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and how you can exercise them.

We apply appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, loss or misuse. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us in alternative ways, for example by telephone or email.

1. Definitions

The data protection declaration of appseder solutions is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be legible and understandable for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain the terminology used.

In this data protection declaration, we use, inter alia, the following terms:

• a) Personal data

  Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

• b) Data subject

  Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person, whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.

• c) Processing

  Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

• d) Restriction of processing

  Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

• e) Profiling

  Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.

• f) Pseudonymisation

  Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

• g) Controller or controller responsible for the processing

  Controller or controller responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

• h) Processor

  Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

• i) Recipient

  Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not.

• j) Third party

  Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.

• k) Consent

  Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject's wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

2. Name and address of the controller

Controller for the purposes of the GDPR and other data protection laws applicable in Member states of the European Union and other provisions related to data protection is:

3. Cookies

The Internet pages of appseder solutions use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser. In particular, authentication and session tokens that are required for Supabase Auth may be stored in your browser (e.g. as cookies or in local storage). These are strictly necessary to enable login and protect your account and are not used for advertising or for tracking you across other websites.

Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a character string through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies.

Through the use of cookies, appseder solutions can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

We only use technically necessary cookies (for example for authentication and session management when you log in). We do not use cookies for analysis, tracking or marketing purposes.

The data subject may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies through our website by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used, and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common Internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be entirely usable.

4. Collection of general data and information

When you access our website, information is automatically transmitted by your browser to our hosting provider Cloudflare Pages (Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). This information is temporarily stored in so-called server log files. The following data may be collected in this context:

• IP address of the requesting device,
• date and time of access,
• URL and path of the page accessed,
• referrer URL (previously visited page),
• browser type and version,
• operating system and interface.

This data is processed in order to ensure the smooth connection of the website, to guarantee comfortable use of our website, to evaluate system security and stability and to enable technical administration of the website (for example to defend against attacks). The legal basis is Art. 6(1) lit. f GDPR; our legitimate interest follows from the purposes listed above.

Where data is transferred to countries without an adequacy decision by the European Commission, this is done on the basis of Standard Contractual Clauses concluded with Cloudflare as part of a data processing agreement.

Cloudflare acts as our processor and processes the server log data exclusively on our instructions. The server log data are stored by Cloudflare for as long as necessary for the purposes described and are then deleted or anonymised. We do not use the log data to draw conclusions about individual visitors and we do not use them for marketing purposes. The server log data are stored separately from other personal data that you provide via the website.

5. Registration on our website

The data subject has the possibility to register on the website of the controller with the indication of personal data. Which personal data are transmitted to the controller is determined by the respective input mask used for the registration. The personal data entered by the data subject are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller, and for his own purposes. The controller may transfer personal data to one or more processors (e.g. IT service providers or technical service providers) that also use personal data for an internal purpose which is attributable to the controller. The processing of registration data (in particular your email address and password) is based on Art. 6(1) lit. b GDPR, as it is necessary for the performance of a contract and to provide your user account.

By registering on the website of the controller, the IP address—assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the data subject—date, and time of the registration are also stored. The storage of this data takes place against the background that this is the only way to prevent the misuse of our services, and, if necessary, to make it possible to investigate committed offences. Insofar, the storage of this data is necessary to secure the controller. This data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a statutory obligation to pass on the data or the transfer serves the aim of criminal prosecution.

The registration of the data subject, with the voluntary indication of personal data, is intended to enable the controller to offer contents or services to the data subject that may only be offered to registered users. Registered persons are free to change the personal data specified during the registration at any time or to have them completely deleted from the data stock of the controller.

The controller shall, at any time, provide information upon request to each data subject as to which personal data are stored about the data subject. Furthermore, the controller shall correct or erase personal data at the request or indication of the data subject, insofar as there are no statutory storage obligations. For this purpose, you can contact us at hello@pxldeck.com.

6. Contact possibility via the website

The website of appseder solutions contains information that enables a quick electronic contact to our company, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (email address). If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject are automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject. There is no transfer of this personal data to third parties. The processing of your enquiry is based on Art. 6(1) lit. b GDPR, if your enquiry relates to an existing contract, or on Art. 6(1) lit. f GDPR, as we have a legitimate interest in processing enquiries addressed to us.

7. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data

The controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.

If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or erased in accordance with legal requirements.

8. Rights of the data subject

• a) Right of confirmation

  Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller the confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her are being processed.

  Furthermore, the data subject shall have a right to obtain information as to whether personal data are transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. Where this is the case, the data subject shall have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.

  If a data subject wishes to avail himself or herself of this right of access, he or she may, at any time, contact us at hello@pxldeck.com.

• c) Right to rectification

  Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning him or her. Taking into account the purposes of the processing, the data subject shall have the right to have incomplete personal data completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.

  If a data subject wishes to exercise this right to rectification, he or she may, at any time, contact us at hello@pxldeck.com.

• d) Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten)

  Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, and the controller shall have the obligation to erase personal data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies, as long as the processing is not necessary:

  • The personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
  • The data subject withdraws consent to which the processing is based according to point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2) GDPR, and where there is no other legal ground for the processing.
  • The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR.
  • The personal data have been unlawfully processed.
  • The personal data must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation in Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.
  • The personal data have been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Article 8(1) GDPR.

  If one of the aforementioned reasons applies, and a data subject wishes to request the erasure of personal data stored by appseder solutions, he or she may, at any time, contact us at hello@pxldeck.com. We will promptly ensure that the erasure request is complied with.

• e) Right of restriction of processing

  Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller restriction of processing where one of the following applies:

  • The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
  • The processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data and requests instead the restriction of their use.
  • The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by the data subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
  • The data subject has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject.

  If one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of the processing of personal data stored by appseder solutions, he or she may at any time contact us at hello@pxldeck.com. We will arrange the restriction of the processing.

• f) Right to data portability

  Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator, to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which were provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. He or she shall have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided, as long as the processing is based on consent pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2) GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of Article 6(1) GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, as long as the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

  Furthermore, in exercising his or her right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to have personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and when doing so does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

  In order to assert the right to data portability, the data subject may at any time contact us at hello@pxldeck.com.

• g) Right to object

  Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, at any time, to processing of personal data concerning him or her, which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

  appseder solutions shall no longer process the personal data in the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

  If appseder solutions processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning him or her for such marketing. This applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to appseder solutions to the processing for direct marketing purposes, appseder solutions will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.

  In addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to object to processing of personal data concerning him or her by appseder solutions for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.

  In order to exercise the right to object, the data subject may directly contact us at hello@pxldeck.com.

• h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

  Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her, or similarly significantly affects him or her, as long as the decision (1) is not necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and a controller, or (2) is not authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not based on the data subject's explicit consent.

  As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.

• i) Right to withdraw data protection consent

  Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to withdraw his or her consent to processing of his or her personal data at any time.

  If the data subject wishes to exercise the right to withdraw consent, he or she may, at any time, contact us at hello@pxldeck.com.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In particular, you can contact the following supervisory authority responsible for us: Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht (BayLDA), Promenade 18, 91522 Ansbach, Germany, www.lda.bayern.de.

9. Use of Supabase (backend, authentication and database)

We use the service Supabase to provide the technical backend of our web application. Supabase is a backend-as-a-service platform that provides, in particular, authentication, a PostgreSQL database and so-called edge functions (serverless functions).

Provider is Supabase Inc. and, depending on the project region, Supabase Pte. Ltd., both at 970 Toa Payoh North, #07-04, Singapore 318992 ("Supabase"). We have concluded a Data Processing Addendum (DPA) with Supabase which includes the Standard Contractual Clauses of the European Commission. Further information can be found in the Supabase Data Processing Addendum at https://supabase.com/legal/dpa.

We use Supabase in particular for the following purposes:

• user authentication and management (login, registration, password reset),
• storage and management of account and application data in a PostgreSQL database,
• execution of edge functions to provide server-side logic (for example certain API endpoints).

In the course of using Supabase, the following categories of personal data may be processed, depending on how you use our application:

• master data (e.g. e-mail address, optionally name or username),
• log-in data (e.g. hashed passwords, tokens, time and type of login),
• usage data and metadata (e.g. IP address, date and time of access, HTTP header information, error logs),
• application data such as settings or textual information you store in the application. Image editing itself takes place locally in your browser; image files are not uploaded to Supabase or our servers.

Supabase may store and process data on servers within the European Union and the United States of America. If data is processed in countries without an adequacy decision by the European Commission, this is done on the basis of the Standard Contractual Clauses concluded with Supabase as part of the DPA.

Supabase is used on the basis of Art. 6(1) lit. b GDPR for the performance of the contract (provision and use of the web application) and Art. 6(1) lit. f GDPR for our legitimate interest in a secure, stable and scalable provision of our online offering.

In connection with Supabase Auth, tokens for authentication and session management are set and processed. These tokens are technically necessary to enable secure login and to protect the application from misuse. They are not used for advertising purposes or for tracking across external websites.

10. Legal basis for the processing

Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. b GDPR. This applies, for example, to processing operations that are necessary for the provision of our web application. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries concerning our services.

If our company is subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR.

In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. In such a case, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR.

Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator (Recital 47 GDPR).

11. The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interests are the effective, secure and user-friendly provision and further development of our online offering, in particular the operation of our web application and the associated technical infrastructure.

12. Period for which the personal data will be stored

We store personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or as long as we are obliged to do so by statutory retention periods.

Account data (in particular your registration data) are stored for as long as your user account exists. If you delete your account, or if we delete it at your request, the associated personal data will be deleted or anonymised, unless we are legally obliged to retain certain data for a longer period.

13. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; requirement necessary to enter into a contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data

We clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.

If you have questions about whether you are required to provide certain personal data, you can contact us using the contact details above.

14. Existence of automated decision-making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
