for the mobile application “Fortunica”- a brand of adviqo AG.

Fortunica is a mobile application (hereinafter referred to as “application”), which is supplied and operated by adviqo AG, Zimmerstraße 68, 10117 Berlin (hereinafter referred to as “adviqo”).

1. Principles
adviqo takes the protection of personal and confidential information very seriously and undertakes to respect the privacy of the user. Personal data is such specific information which may provide information about the personal or factual circumstances of the customer. The management of the user’s personal data will be in compliance with the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the German Telemedia Act (TMG) and other data protection regulations. The responsible body in terms of data protection law is adviqo. By accepting this privacy policy the user agrees to the collection, storage and processing of his personal data in the quantity, manner and for the purposes described below. The user can at any time revoke the collection and storage of data with effect for the future.

2. Collection, processing and use of personal data
The user can load and open the application from the App Store or Google Play without having to give personal details. adviqo merely stores access data which is not personally identifiable, for example device logon data (including device ID) or the name of the requested file. This data is used exclusively to improve our services and does not contain any references to the the identity of the user.

Personal data will only be collected if the user voluntarily transmits it during registration or if it is transmitted when using the application.

The following data will be collected:

Name, forename, date of birth, gender,
communications sent and received through the application, attachments (pictures, videos, audio or others) information about the use of the application.

All of this personal data will be treated confidentially. All data collected in the course of registration and data arising during the use of the application (usage data) will be centrally stored and processed for contract fulfilment and billing purposes.

adviqo also uses the data to update its records, to update and maintain user accounts and to display content e.g. advisers in favourite subject areas and to recommend other advisers or services which could be of interest.

User data is also used to improve the adaptability and appearance of the application, and to prevent or detect misuse, in particular fraud, or to enable third parties to carry out technical, logistical or other services on behalf of adviqo. In particular adviqo shall be entitled to transmit the user’s inventory data to third parties if it is required for the assignment or collection of debts. Moreover, the third parties commissioned by adviqo are entitled in the course of the fulfilment and processing of services, to store personal data and to pass it on to cooperation partners, such as postal service providers for the purpose of performing services. In this respect the cooperation partner shall also be entitled to store the data. adviqo is entitled to pass on the membership data of users to affiliated companies in accordance with Section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG). The affiliated companies may use membership data to the extent provided by this declaration of data protection.

3. Tracking
The application uses third party tracking technologies and web traffic analysis services for marketing and optimisation purposes, including “Google Analytics” by Google Inc. in order to collect, store, process and make use of user data (anonymised user profiles). In doing so, information relating to the use of the application (sometimes including the IP address of the user) is transmitted to and stored in third party servers, e.g. those of Google in the USA. This information is used both by adviqo and the operators of the tracking and analysis technologies to evaluate the use of the application, to prepare reports about application activity for the application operators and to provide further services associated with the use of the application and the internet. This information may be transmitted to third parties both by adviqo and the operators of the tracking and analysis technologies, in so far as this is legally required or if the third parties process the data on behalf of adviqo. Under no circumstances shall the IP address or other personal data be associated with the data of the operators of the tracking and analysis technologies such that the visitor to the application is personally identifiable.

Should the user not consent to the storage and exploitation of his data and user behaviour by Google, then he must uninstall the application from his device. There is no separate facility for deactivating Google Analytics from within the application.

4. Right to information
In accordance with the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) the user is entitled to information free of charge concerning his stored data and the right, where applicable to correct, block or delete this data.
