Data protection declaration for the use of the Working Bicycle App
If you use the Working Bicycle app, you agree to the following terms:
1) Scope of data processing
The app can be used if you have created a profile via the app or via the Working Bicycle AG website at workingbicycle.ch. You can log in to the app or website with the corresponding email address and password. After that, you can scan the QR code on the advertisement box with your phone to mark the start of the trip. You can do the same at the end of your trip to notify the server of the end of the trip. When using the app, personal data about your location is collected by sending the GPS data to the server via your mobile phone while cycling (see Section 2). In addition, the travel time, the kilometers traveled and the number of trips are calculated using the collected GPS data. If you choose "discard" on the app at the end of your journey, no data will be transmitted to the server. This data can be visualized and evaluated by the administrators using appropriate software programs. However, no personal data will be passed on to third-party companies. Only the individual coordination points (without information on time or person) can be visualized and evaluated. The location data we collect depends on your device and account settings. For example, you can turn on or off your phone's location tracking under "Settings" on your device. However, by disabling location tracking, our app can no longer be used. Activating the location tracking is therefore a mandatory requirement for using the app.
2) Data Storage
The location data is stored on the Google Cloud servers, and the Google cluster is located in Switzerland. Only the administrators of Working Bicycle AG have access to this data. As an exception, the development company jkweb AG can also access the data for maintenance purposes.
3) Purpose of data processing
With the help of the collected location data, Working Bicycle AG can check the route traveled by the individual cyclists and thus, their compliance with the Code of Conduct. Working Bicycle AG can also win companies for future advertising campaigns based on the data collected. The companies can be shown which route the cyclists actually cover, which can emphasize the effectiveness of the advertising by Working Bicycle. The cyclists benefit directly from an increase in the campaigns, as this results in more opportunities for them to participate. A transfer of personal data to the advertising companies is excluded and in no way represents the purpose of this app.
