Our data protection declaration is intended to be simple and understandable for everyone. As a rule, the official terms of the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) are used in this data protection declaration. The official definitions are explained in Art. 4 DSGVO.
Data processing by visiting our website
​
When you visit our website, it is technically necessary for data to be transmitted to our web server via your internet browser. The following data is recorded during an ongoing connection for communication between your internet browser and our web server:
-
Date and time of the request
-
Name of the requested file
-
Page from which the file was requested
-
Access status
-
Web browser and operating system used
-

Amount of data transferred
We collect the listed data to ensure a smooth connection setup of the website and to enable a comfortable use of our website by the users. In addition, the log file is used to evaluate system security and stability as well as for administrative purposes. The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data or the log files is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
For reasons of technical security, in particular to defend against attempted attacks on our web server, we store this data for a short period of time. It is not possible for us to draw conclusions about individual persons on the basis of this data. After several days at the latest, the data is anonymised by shortening several days of the IP address at domain level, so that it is no longer possible to establish a reference to the individual user.

Data processing through the use of our app
If you use our app as an end customer, it is technically necessary for data to be transmitted to our web server.

We use collected information solely to provide the aforementioned services of the app and anonymised data for evaluation by the merchant. The collected data is stored for the time necessary to provide the services and then irreversibly anonymised. ClaimBase is based in Europe and only stores and processes information in data centres in Europe.
Your rights as a data subject
​
As a data subject, you have various rights under the GDPR, which arise in particular from Art. 15 to 21 GDPR:
​
Right to information: You have the right to request confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you are being processed; if this is the case, you have the right to information about these personal data and to further information listed in Art. 15 GDPR.
​
Right to rectification: You have the right to request the immediate correction of incorrect personal data concerning you and, if necessary, the completion of incomplete personal data (Art. 16 GDPR).
​
Right to erasure: You have the right to demand that personal data concerning you be deleted immediately if one of the reasons listed in Art. 17 GDPR applies, e.g. if the data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected (right to be forgotten).
​
Right to restriction of processing: You have the right to demand the restriction of processing if one of the conditions listed in Art. 18 GDPR is met, e.g. if you have objected to the processing for the duration of any verification.
​
Right to data portability: In certain cases, which are listed in Art. 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request that they be transmitted to another controller.
​
Right to object: If data are collected on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (data processing for the protection of legitimate interests), you have the right to object to the processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. We will then no longer process the personal data, unless there are demonstrably compelling legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
​
Right to revoke consent: If the processing is based on consent, you have the right to revoke the consent at any time, without affecting the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation.
​
Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority: Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.
​
Right to revoke consent given in accordance with Art. 7 (3) DSGVO: You have the right to revoke consent to the processing of data once given at any time with effect for the future. In the event of revocation, we will immediately delete the data concerned unless further processing can be based on a legal basis for processing without consent. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.
Right of objection
If your personal data is processed by us on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. f DSGVO, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data pursuant to Art. 21 DSGVO, insofar as this is done for reasons arising from your particular situation. Insofar as the objection is directed against the processing of personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, you have a general right of objection without the requirement to specify a particular situation. If you wish to exercise your right of withdrawal or objection, simply send an e-mail to contact@claimbase.app.
