As a user of our active365 app, this privacy policy informs you about how we handle your personal data and about your rights under the European General Data Protection Regulation ('GDPR'), the German Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz, 'BDSG') and the Swiss Data Protection Act (Datenschutzgesetz 'DSG'). eTherapists GmbH (hereinafter referred to as 'we' or 'us') is responsible for the processing of your data.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this information or wish to contact us to assert your rights, please address your query to:

The term 'personal data' used in data protection law refers to all information relating to an identified or identifiable person. We process personal data in compliance with the applicable data protection provisions.
You may also sometimes disclose data to us about other persons (e.g. support requests). We will assume that you are authorised to do this and that the data is correct. Please inform these persons of our processing of their data (e.g. by referring them to this privacy policy).
You are not obliged to disclose any data to us. However, without certain data, the app or some of its functions cannot be used (e.g. no payments without IBAN, no activePoints for sports activities if not linked to a tracker).
We only process data on the basis of legal permission where the applicable laws – such as the GDPR and the BDSG – require such permission. In this case, we only process personal data with your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 (a) GDPR), to perform a contract to which you are a contracting party or to take steps at your request prior to entering into the contract (Art. 6 para. 1 (b) GDPR), to comply with a legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 (c) GDPR), or if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms which require protection of personal data (Art. 6 para. 1 (f) GDPR).
The app is available to persons aged 18 and over. Minors from the age of 16 may use the app if their legal representative provides a declaration of consent; the details are governed by the terms of use. If the consent of the legal representative is also required under the applicable laws (e.g. under Art. 8 GDPR and supplementary national provisions), we will collect this consent or request proof thereof.
Unless indicated otherwise by the following information, we process your personal data for as long as required for the purpose of processing or by any statutory retention obligations, or if we have a legitimate interest in its further storage. After expiry of the relevant storage periods we will erase your data, but reserve the right to anonymise personal data and to continue to use it in anonymised form for evaluation and optimisation purposes:
We use processors to help us process your data. Processing operations carried out by such processors include, for example, hosting, email delivery, maintenance and support of IT systems, customer and order management, order processing, accounting and settlement, marketing measures, and document and data carrier destruction. A processor is a natural person or legal entity, public authority, agency or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the controller responsible for data processing. Processors do not use the data for their own purposes but process the data only on behalf of us as the controller, and are contractually obliged to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure that data protection is guaranteed. If applicable, we may also transmit your personal data to bodies such as the postal and delivery service, principal bank, tax / auditing company or finance administration. Other recipients may be indicated by the following information (in particular section 5).
Our data processing activities may involve the transmission of specific personal data to third countries, i.e. to countries where the GDPR or the Swiss DSG is not part of the applicable laws. Recipients of personal data may be located in the following countries in particular: Switzerland, the Federal Republic of Germany, the United States of America (USA). As these recipients may themselves use the services of processors and other service providers, personal data may also end up in other countries, potentially worldwide.
Such a transmission takes place lawfully if the competent body (in the EU: the European Commission; in Switzerland: the Federal Council) has found that an adequate level of data protection is ensured in such a third country. Adequacy decisions have been issued for the following countries (for Switzerland: Annex 1 to the Data Protection Ordinance). For the transmission of data to the USA, the adequacy decision applies to companies that are certified under the Privacy Framework and included in this list.
In the absence of an adequacy decision, personal data will be transmitted to a third country only if appropriate safeguards have been provided pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR or Art. 16 para. 2 DSG and we can act on the basis of a derogation provision (Art. 49 GDPR; Art. 17 DSG). An exception may apply in particular to legal proceedings abroad, but also in cases of overriding public interest or if the performance of a contract requires such disclosure, if you have given your consent, or if the data concerned has been made publicly available by you and you did not object to the processing of this data.
If there is no adequacy decision and nothing to the contrary is stated below, we use the EU's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as appropriate data protection safeguards for the transmission of personal data to third countries. If you wish to receive or view a copy of these EU Standard Contractual Clauses, please contact the address provided above.
If you consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, transmission will take place on the lawful basis of Art. 49 para. 1 (a) GDPR.
If you exercise your rights in accordance with Arts. 15 to 22 GDPR, we will process the transmitted personal data for the purpose of implementing these rights and in order to provide proof that we have done so. Data stored for the purpose of providing and preparing information will be processed only for this purpose and for the purpose of monitoring data protection; we will restrict its processing for any other purposes.
The lawful basis for such processing is provided by Art. 6 para. 1 (c) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 15 to 22 GDPR and §34 para. 2 BDSG.
As a data subject you are entitled to assert data subject rights against us. You have the following rights in particular under the laws that apply to our processing activities, subject to the appropriate restrictions and exceptions. Certain deviations apply under the Swiss DSG:
Under Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing of your personal data which is lawfully based on Art. 6 para. 1 (e) or (f). Where we process your personal data for direct marketing purposes, you can object to this processing pursuant to Art. 21 paras. 2 and 3 GDPR.

Personal data is defined as all information relating to an identified or identifiable person. This includes information that makes it possible to identify you directly, such as your name or photo, as well as facts that can indirectly reveal information about you, such as details of your body, impairments or complaints, information about your leisure activities, and data which you provide for quality improvement purposes while using the app.
Personal data also includes information that is provided under a pseudonym, without disclosing your name. Data protection law generally also classifies the IP address as an item of personal data. An IP address is allocated by the internet provider to each device connected to the internet so that it can send and receive data. Health data is personal data that directly or indirectly provides information about the health of a person. Such data includes information about your physical well-being / complaints or about your mental / psychological health. Health data falls into the special categories of personal data that are subject to a particularly high level of protection.
