3D RealityMaps GmbH takes the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations. The use of our smartphone app is generally possible without providing personal data. If personal data (e.g. name, address or e-mail addresses) is collected, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

Server-Log-Files

Some of the app's content is dynamically reloaded from servers via Internet requests. The server collects and stores information that your browser automatically transmits to us in so-called server log files. These are Browser type and browser version; operating system used; referrer URL; IP address; time of server request. This data cannot be assigned to specific persons. This data is not merged with other data sources. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of unlawful use.

Creation of a user account

If you would like to create an account in the user community offered by 3D RealityMaps, our website will first ask you to enter your e-mail address and your name (user name). You can either enter your full name here or use a pseudonym of your choice.

Username and email address

We use the name or pseudonym you provide and your e-mail address so that you can create a user account with this name and e-mail address and a password of your choice. The use of your e-mail address also serves to protect your user account from third parties. With a user account, you can save your tour data recorded with the app (GPS tracks, photos, texts) on our servers, you can take part in competitions, upload photos and be listed in leaderboards. In this case, your user name and the statistics of your GPS tracks will be displayed in the leaderboards. We also use your e-mail address to send you important information about your user account. This includes, in particular, important security information, software updates and significant changes that affect this privacy policy.

Consent to receive notifications about interactions in the community

If you want to receive notifications about interactions, we need your consent. Notifications are sent, for example, when you first register or when you participate or win a challenge. 3D RealityMaps uses your email address for this purpose. You can revoke your consent to the use of your e-mail address for this purpose at any time in your personal profile.

Social network credentials for your user account

To log in to your user account, you can use the login data of social networks such as Facebook. For this purpose, your consent to the transfer of certain information by the social network to 3D RealityMaps is required before the first login. If you agree, the social network provider will provide us with information such as your name and e-mail address. However, we only store and process your user name and e-mail address. The email address provided will be linked to your user account. A prerequisite for the use of your login data from social networks is that the social network shares your login data with us. If the social network does not allow this, you can only log in by creating a user account.

Transmission of recorded GPS tracks to a user account

You have the option of using our smartphone apps to upload recorded GPS position data (GPS tracks) from your smartphone to your community account. Your consent is required for this. You can revoke your consent to the storage of your recorded GPS tracks at any time in your personal profile. Alternatively, you can deactivate the recording of GPS tracks in the settings of your mobile device.

If you upload your GPS tracks to your user account, data is recorded for transmission. This includes, for example, the IP address used during the transfer, information about the network used for synchronization, such as WLAN or mobile communications, system crash and diagnostic logs, information about your device, as well as the date and time. We process this information in order to identify and rectify errors and synchronization problems and thus ensure high-quality product support.

However, you can always record GPS position data on your smartphone without agreeing to the transfer of this data to 3D RealityMaps. In this case, the GPS tracks will only be saved on the smartphone you are currently using. In this case, the data cannot be transferred to other devices.

GPS live tracking sessions

If the GPS live tracking function is available and you use it, the real-time position of your device will be displayed to the people you have selected. To do this, you can invite selected people to use the live tracking function, who can then see your real-time position on your map. 3D RealityMaps cannot influence whether the people you have selected forward their contact and thus allow third parties to access your real-time position. To protect the data about your real-time position, you should therefore only invite people you know and trust to use the live tracking function.

Storage of personal data

Your personal data will only be stored by us as long as you do not delete your account. As soon as you delete your account, we also delete your data.

Right to information, deletion, blocking

You have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing as well as a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data at any time. You can contact us at any time with regard to this and other questions on the subject of personal data.

Analytics and other recordings

Google Analytics and Matomo are used in our smartphone apps to record usage statistics and user behavior. Crashlytics (https://try.crashlytics.com/terms/privacy-policy.pdf) is also used in apps for Android to record software crashes (so-called crash logs). The sole purpose of this is to improve the functionality of our products. You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by deactivating the function in the app settings.

IP anonymization

We have activated the IP anonymization function in our apps. This means that your IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of the app, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the app, to compile reports on activities in the app and to provide the app operator with other services related to the use of the app. The IP address transmitted by the app as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Responsible person and data protection officer

3D RealityMaps GmbH with the following address is responsible for the personal data collected: Landsberger Str. 314, 80687 Munich, Germany. Our data protection officer can be contacted by e-mail: datenschutz@realitymaps.de.uszuwerten, to compile reports on activities in the app and to provide other services related to the use of the app to the app operator. The IP address transmitted by the app as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
