Data Privacy Statement for the Use of the “FUNTIME” App

This Data Privacy Statement applies for the offering and use of the “FUNTIME” app (hereinafter referred to as “FUNTIME”), hereinafter referred to as “we” or “us” for use on your mobile device.

When using FUNTIME, personal data will be collected, processed and used by us. Because the protection of your privacy when using FUNTIME is important to us, we would like to inform you with the following information about what personal data we collect when you use FUNTIME and how we handle this data.

 

What is Personal Data?

“Personal data” is information, or parts thereof, by means of which you can be identified either directly (e.g. by your name) or indirectly (e.g. by pseudonymized data such as a unique ID). This means that personal data includes, for example, email addresses, addresses, mobile phone numbers, user names, profile pictures, personal preferences and use behavior regarding the apps used on your end device, user content, financial information and health-related information. However, this could also include one-time identifiers such as the IP address of your end device or the browser you use, and other specific information about your mobile device.

This Data Privacy Statement covers all personal data that is stored and processed by you when using FUNTIME.

 

Collection and Use of Your Data

In some cases, you will provide us with immediate access to the data (e.g. when creating a user account and contacting us) and in some cases we will collect the data automatically during the use of FUNTIME (e.g. in order to offer our services and understand how you use our services and your apps).

We will use your data to perform and process the contract on the use of FUNTIME. Within this framework, we will use your data primarily for the calculation and payment of the rewards acquired by you in the course of your use of FUNTIME and inform you about apps participating in FUNTIME. Other use will only take place due to other statutory obligations or authorization, if you have granted us permission.

The legal basis for the processing of your data may be the following:

 

In particular, your personal data will be used as follows during the use of FUNTIME:

Registration

In order to use FUNTIME, you must register for FUNTIME.

Consent to the Processing of Personal Data for the Use of FUNTIME

When using FUNTIME for the first time, you first have to accept our terms and conditions of use during the registration and agree to the processing of your personal data by FUNTIME. For this purpose, you have to confirm the following declaration of consent:

I hereby agree that by using FUNTIME may use the following personal data:

Registration data (email address and Username)

Installed apps (including the use duration and use history)

The data is linked to your device via the device ID (GAID or IDFA) transmitted to our servers in encrypted form. So that app providers can finance our app proposals, your device ID must be transferred to them for billing purposes. In order to measure the usage time as well as the installed apps, users can voluntarily upload screenshots from their mobile phone via the FUNTIME, after which they will be automatically processed, evaluated, and stored in our system for your membership.

The processing of the above data is required in order to be able to suggest apps available in the FUNTIME that match your interests, propose their installation via system notifications, and allow the bonuses earned from using said apps to be calculated. I am aware that the above data results in an interest profile, which, depending on the type of apps I use, may contain particularly sensitive personal data (such as health data or data on my sexual orientation as well as any other data from special categories).

 

Registration and Login via Facebook or Google

For the registration, in the next step after accepting, you have to decide whether you would like to register or login via email with the user data of your Facebook or Google account.

This information is absolutely necessary to be able to save or restore your coins in case you delete the app or change the device. We will collect and use this data to set up and provide FUNTIME on your mobile end device. The use of FUNTIME is only permitted for people from the age of 18 years.

For the registration, you will be directed to the Facebook or Google page where you can register with your user data and therefore link your Facebook or Google profile to our app. We will hereby automatically receive the following information from Facebook or Google:

Your data will be sent encrypted in the SSL process and will therefore be safely sent from the servers of Facebook or Google.

 

Further Information:

The provider of social network “Facebook” is Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. Which personal data containing the above-mentioned information is sent to us depends on the settings selected by you within your Facebook profile. Please find the corresponding information in the data privacy terms and conditions of Facebook: https://facebook.com/about/privacy/ and https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/.

Google's services are provided by Google, Google Building, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland. Which personal data containing the above-mentioned information is sent to us depends on the settings selected by you within your Google profile. Please find the corresponding information in the data privacy terms and conditions of Facebook: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

The use of the Facebook or Google login can lead to your personal data being collected by Facebook or Google and potentially sent outside the EU/EEA, and being stored and used there. This data collection and use is within the area of responsibility of Facebook or Google. The precise use of the data by Facebook or Google is not known to us and we have no influence on what data is collected by Facebook or Google and how it is used by Facebook or Google.

Please see the above privacy policy and terms of use of Facebook and Google you agreed to when you registered with them.

 

Use Data

During the use of FUNTIME, we log and store certain data automatically.

Data Processing for the Recommendation of New Apps

To be able to recommend to you other apps that participate in FUNTIME based on your current app preferences, a list of apps currently installed on your end device, as well as apps that you have already installed (but that you have deinstalled) in the operating system installed on your end device, including a use history of all these apps, will be sent to us during the installation of FUNTIME.

In order to know your long-term preferences and continue to offer you interesting apps, after the installation of FUNTIME and permanently during the use of FUNTIME, other apps installed by you on your end device will be automatically recognized by FUNTIME and the name of each newly installed app will be sent to us.

In addition, we will log data about the use of the apps running in the foreground of your end device and the temporal extent of the use (date, time and duration of the use of all apps).

For the logging of the use data within FUNTIME, we measure the so-called “customer journey”. For this purpose, each click or typing of a key within FUNTIME will be logged and linked to your profile or stored on the server.

 

Data Processing for the Calculation of Bonus Payments

We also use the data about your use of the apps running in the foreground of your end device to calculate the bonuses generated by you, if you have obtained and installed these apps via FUNTIME. For this purpose, we also log and use data about your purchases of services and virtual items within the framework of the apps used by you (in-app purchases), and about relevant in-app occurrences relevant for the calculation of the bonuses, such as level increases.

 

Authorization to Access Functions and Data on the End Device

In order to be able to use all functions of FUNTIME, you may have to grant FUNTIME permission to access certain functions and data on your device (such as access to your camera or your app library), but this depends on your device and the operating system, over which we have no influence. We will use all authorization granted by you solely for the above-named purposes, even if authorization granted (e.g. for technical reasons) theoretically enables other possible uses. You can normally (in other words, depending on your device and the installed operating system) cancel granted authorization in your device settings at any time.

 

Storage Duration of Your Data

We will only store your personal data for as long as we need it for the performance of the contract on the use of FUNTIME, for the fulfilment of your wishes, or for our legitimate interests for the purposes of which we have logged your personal data, or for as long as is permitted or required by law:

When we no longer require your personal data, we will erase it from our systems and records, or anonymize it so that it can no longer be identified.

 

Forwarding of Data

The passing on of your personal data without your explicit prior permission will only take place in the following cases, in addition to the other cases named in this Data Privacy Statement:

Security Measures to Protect the Data Stored by Us

We are obliged to protect your privacy and treat your personal data confidentially. Your data will be stored in our databases, which are only accessible to us and employees specifically trained in data protection.

If we use support from third-party service providers who process your data on our behalf in order to provide our web services, we have ensured that they are subject to the strict conditions of this Data Privacy Statement, and that the use of your data beyond the cases described in this Data Privacy Statement will not take place. All contractors, service providers and their employees are subject extensively to our instructions and are also in particular legally obliged to observe, and trained in, the protection of your data.

In order to prevent the loss or misuse of the data stored by us, we take comprehensive technical and organizational safety precautions, which are regularly reviewed and adjusted to meet technological advances. If it is within our sphere of influence, we use in particular modern encryption techniques as well as a variety of other measures to prevent third parties from obtaining unauthorized information.

However, we would like to point out to you that due to the structure of the internet, it is possible that the data protection regulations and the above-named security measures of other persons or institutions not within our area of responsibility cannot be observed. In particular, data passed on in a non-encrypted form can be read by third parties, even if it is sent via email. We have no technical influence on this occurrence. In these cases, it is the responsibility of the user to protect the data it provides against misuse, by encryption or other methods.
