Personal Information

We only collect personal data if you voluntarily provide it to us, for example within the scope of a registration for a user account, contact enquiry, booking of services and unblocking data within the scope of the use of Danale applications. We will collect, process and use all personal data that we learn from you in the course of using our websites and applications only for the stated purpose. We take into account that this is only done within the framework of the applicable legal regulations and only with your consent. The data will only be passed on to third parties without your consent if we are legally obliged to do so.

Contact Details

If you contact us through the contact options offered, your details will be stored so that they can be used to process and answer your enquiry. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent. Contact information includes, but is not limited to, your name, telephone number, email address and postal address.

User Account Details

When you create a user account through a Danale application to access Danale products and services, your login information such as your email address or phone number, account password and device ID, are stored among other things. Login information is stored so that you can log in from another device at any time. Device ID is saved if you have enabled 2-factor authentication to hinder third-party login.

Payment Details

For the payment of additional services in the Danale application, payment information such as name, card number, expiry date and secure codes are required, which are stored by a credit card payment service provider. Danale only stores the expiry date, the last two digits and the type of card. For payment via Paypal you will be redirected to the website of Paypal Inc. and the user account for Paypal will be added to the last used options of payment.

Application Data

When you set up Smart Home devices that are compatible with our Danale application, we store certain information such as the device identification number, firmware version and model of the Smart Home devices you have set up; the description of the product in your user account; the user accounts with which you have shared devices; the geographical location of your mobile device (with your consent). WIFI-SSID and WIFI-password are only required for the setup of the Smart Home device and are only stored locally on your end device.

Video/audio files

Our applications allow you to experience what's happening on site via a smart home camera on a terminal device. The video/audio files are encrypted and forwarded via a secure server to your device (Android/iOS/PC/MAC) without buffering. These files may be processed to detect events such as motion and noise and send them to you as notifications. If you have activated the additional Cloud Video Storage service, your video/audio files are saved for the time period offered and video/audio recordings are stored individually for motion and noise detection. Your files will be deleted immediately after the service has ended or has been terminated. It is not possible to restore the files.

Data Collection and Processing

We do not collect or process any personal data from you when you visit our website. Only information about the name of your provider and about the websites that you access from us, as well as information about the date and time of access, are stored in a log file and evaluated for statistical purposes (e.g. number of accesses for the individual websites).
