This website is hosted by IONOS SE (Elgendorfer Str. 57, 56410 Montabaur, Germany). When you visit this website, the hosting provider automatically records so-called server log files. These include:

• IP address of the requesting device (anonymised after a short time)
• Date and time of the request
• Name and URL of the requested file
• Website from which the access was made (referrer)
• Browser and operating system used
• HTTP status code

This data is technically required to deliver the website correctly and is evaluated solely to ensure trouble-free operation and to improve our service. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in secure and functioning operation). The log files are deleted automatically after 7 days at the latest.

Local storage when closing notices

From time to time, this website shows a notice (e.g. a call for voluntary support). If you close it, the website stores locally in your browser (so-called “localStorage”) that this notice has been closed, so that it does not appear again. Only this marker is stored, no personal data. It remains exclusively on your device, is not transmitted to us or to third parties and is not used for any analysis. Storage is technically necessary for the function you expressly requested (Section 25(2) no. 2 of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act, TDDDG); consent is not required for this. You can delete this data at any time via your browser settings.

If you contact us by email or phone, the data you provide (e.g. name, email address, phone number, content of your request) is stored and used solely to process your request.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (pre-contractual measures / performance of a contract) or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in answering enquiries). The data is deleted once your request has been fully processed, unless statutory retention obligations prevent this.

You can subscribe to our free newsletter on this website. It is written in German and English and informs you about updates and news about EventTimer, new programs, calls for voluntary support and event technology offers from MWVT-Event. We only send it with your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). The only mandatory information is your email address.

Sign-up with confirmation (double opt-in)

After signing up, you will receive an email with a confirmation link. You are only subscribed once you confirm your subscription with it. Without confirmation, your address is deleted automatically after 7 days.

Stored data

• Email address
• Time and IP address of sign-up and confirmation
• Version and language of the consent text and the page on which you signed up
• Times of the confirmation emails sent
• if you unsubscribe, the time and method (link in the email, unsubscribe button of your email program or upon your message)

We store times and IP addresses in order to be able to prove that you have given your consent (Art. 7(1) GDPR; legal basis Art. 6(1)(c) and (f) GDPR). To protect against abusive sign-ups, your IP address is also stored briefly as a checksum (not in plain text) in order to limit too many sign-ups from the same address; it is deleted automatically after one hour (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Sending without external services

Sign-up, storage and sending take place entirely on our web space and via our email account at IONOS SE (see section 2), which processes the data on our behalf (Art. 28 GDPR). We do not use an external newsletter service.

No tracking

The newsletter contains no tracking pixels, no remotely loaded images and no tracked links. We do not evaluate whether or when you open an email or which links you click.

Unsubscribing and storage period

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time and thereby withdraw your consent: via the link at the end of every email, via the unsubscribe button of your email program or by email to newsletter@mwvt-event.com. This does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out up to that point.

As long as you are subscribed, we store the data listed above. After you unsubscribe, your address is blocked for sending; you will no longer receive the newsletter. We then keep the proof data for another three years in order to be able to prove consent if necessary (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, Art. 17(3)(e) GDPR), and delete it automatically afterwards. If you would like it to be deleted earlier, a message to us is sufficient.

App downloads (macOS & Windows)

This website offers direct downloads of MWVT EventTimer for macOS and Windows. The files are provided via our hosting provider (IONOS). No personal data is collected beyond the server log files mentioned in section 2.

Update check of the MWVT EventTimer app

At every start and once a day while it keeps running (versions before 1.1.1: at start, no more than once a week), the MWVT EventTimer app retrieves a version file from this server (mwvt-event.de/eventtimer/version.json) in order to notify you of new program versions. As with every request, your IP address is transmitted and recorded in the server log files according to section 2 (date, time, requested file, identifier of the app or operating system). No other device, usage or content data is sent; there is no automatic download and no automatic installation.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in up-to-date and secure program versions).

Error logs and crash reports of the app

From version 1.1 onwards, the app does not send crash reports. Error logs (log files) and technical crash dumps remain on your device and are not transmitted automatically. Only if you send us these files yourself by email (in the app under ? → “Diagnostics”) do we process them for error analysis; the section “Contact by email or phone” applies to this.

Version 1.0.0 could optionally send crash reports to the Sentry service (processing in the EU region) in the event of an error. This function was switched off by default and only active with your express consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can withdraw in the app at any time; it is discontinued with the update to version 1.1. This website itself does not use Sentry. Details can be found in the app's privacy policy, available in the app via the ? button.

Support via PayPal

This website contains links through which you can voluntarily support our work via PayPal. You only leave our website when you click one of these links; further processing is carried out by PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg, under its own responsibility. When you make a payment, PayPal transmits the information required for processing to us (e.g. name, email address, amount, time).

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (processing your payment) and Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR (statutory, in particular tax-related, retention obligations). PayPal privacy policy: paypal.com/de/legalhub/paypal/privacy-full

Insofar as we process your personal data, you have the following rights vis-à-vis us:

• Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR)
• Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
• Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
• Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
• Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
• Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)
• Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR)

To better understand how this website is used, we anonymously count the number of page views and app downloads. Only aggregated figures are stored – i.e. which page or which file was accessed how often and at what time.

No IP addresses, no cookies and no personal data are stored in the process. It is not possible to draw conclusions about individual persons. Counting takes place entirely on our own server – no external services are used and no data is passed on to third parties.

The counting request itself – like every request to this website – is recorded in the server log files according to section 2. Beyond that, no personal data is processed for counting and no information is stored on or read from your device (Section 25 TDDDG); consent is therefore not required.

We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy if necessary, for example if legal requirements change or new services are added. The current version is always available on this page. The date of the last change is noted at the top of this page.
