3.1 Analysis Portal
The analysis portal is the central element of our service. It is used to process our customers’ health data. We do not use any third-party cookies or tracking here. Cookies are only used in the analysis portal to guarantee the functionality of the portal. This means that no personal data is saved.
We treat the data that you provide us for analysis with great care. Your data will never be passed on to third parties. We only use this to e.g. calculate comparative values and thereby continuously improve the informative value of our analyzes. Only so-called “aggregated” and no personal data are used for this.
Private individuals who have a private account with independently uploaded measurements have the option of granting HRV professionals an access to their measurements and analyzes on request. However, this only takes place at the request and active consent of the individual private person.
3.2 Customer Account
We only use our own cookies on our website to improve functionality.
We use Google Analytics to collect statistical data. The IP is shortened here before being transmitted to Google and thereby anonymized.
We have implemented an opt-in for all other third-party tracking cookies, i.e. when visiting the website, you can choose whether these tracking pixels are loaded at all. In our case, this concerns Facebook and Twitter cookies.

The Community uses Google Maps to represent our partners geographically. For technical reasons, your IP address and your browser information will be sent to Google when you access this page.
3.5. Activities-App
The activities during a measurement documented by you in our activities app are uploaded to our HRV analysis portal via an encrypted SSL connection and linked to the uploaded data of the respective measurement in your account.
3.6 Log-Data
When you access a website or a service, your browser automatically transmits usage data and stores it in so-called “server log files”. The date, time, name of the accessed page, IP address, referrer URL, the amount of data transferred, and the data of the browser used (type and version) are stored in these log files.
Server log files are analyzed to find errors and to improve server capacities. A compilation or analysis of personal data does not take place.

You can subscribe to our newsletter on our homepage and when you register in the analysis portal.
With our newsletter, interested parties receive regular information on our developments and news about HRV. We take great care not to inundate you with emails. We take great care not to inundate you with emails.
We handle all information conscientiously and strictly in accordance with the applicable rules and laws. This means that data (e.g. name, address, telephone number, e-mail, etc.) may be used to send event and topic-related information based on the information, seminar visits and interests.
We only send newsletters after registering for the newsletter via our homepage or email, after consent when registering in the analysis portal or to existing customers. If someone no longer wants to receive a newsletter, there is the option of unsubscribing from the newsletter at any time using the unsubscribe link in the footer of each newsletter.
The contradiction can also be sent at any time to our contact address from point 1 “Responsible authority” by post or e-mail.
4. Customer Account
If you have a customer account for this service or website, it is password-protected. In this so-called “account”, data such as orders or customer data can be viewed and changed. You undertake to treat your personal access data confidentially and not to make it available to unauthorized third parties. We cannot assume any liability for improperly used passwords unless we are responsible for the abuse.
We collect, save and process your data for the entire processing of any purchases, for our services, technical administration and our own marketing purposes. Your personal data will only be passed on to third parties if this is necessary for the purpose of contract processing or billing or if you have given your prior consent and only to the extent that the data is necessary for third parties. If there are exceptions to this, they are mentioned below in this text.
The data passed on may only be used by service providers to fulfill their task. Any other use of the information is not permitted. We have legally binding contracts with all service providers cooperating with us for this obligation.
Your personal data will be deleted after you have made use of your right to delete, if the data is no longer required to fulfill the purpose for which it was saved and if the deletion does not violate any applicable law or the deletion would be inadmissible.
5. Professionals & Partner
Certified HRV professionals and partners are health care providers who use our services for their clients and patients. We are legally obliged to conclude a contract with every owner of a partner account.
As a “data processor”, an HRV professional or partner is the owner and user of a partner account. He/She is also the point of contact for all of his clients’ concerns regarding their HRV measurements.
In this case, we act as the “controller” because we have “actual power” over the data as we have built and managed the system.
“The person responsible” is the “master of the data processing” and is responsible for making decisions about the purposes and means of the specific processing activity. The decision is not to be understood in the sense of a conscious cognitive process, but in the sense of a determination or, more precisely, a legal or actual influence on this determination. A question that is often easier to answer in practice for assessing the role as a controller is who has the decision-making authority to end the specific data processing. Only those who, with their legal or actual influence, can stop the data processing at any time can be responsible.” (Fritz, Gernot. ABGRENZUNGSSCHWIERIGKEITEN BEI DER DATENSCHUTZRECHTLICHEN ROLLENVERTEILUNG NACH DER DS-GVO (DIFFICULTIES IN THE DIFFERENTIAL DATA PROTECTION ROLES ACCORDING TO THE GDPR) from Gernot Fritz).
The contact person for safeguarding the rights of data subjects is the above-mentioned responsible authority or our data protection officer.
The partners and professionals are obliged to inform their clients or patients about the data processing, to obtain their consent and to document it.
