Visiting the website
When you visit ourround.de, our hosting and security provider Cloudflare processes technically necessary connection data, in particular the IP address, time, requested address, amount of data transferred, and browser and operating-system information. This processing serves the secure and reliable delivery of the website and protection against attacks. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We do not use analytics, advertising or marketing services on the website and do not store cookies ourselves.
What the app processes
OurRound records drink rounds at shared events. Without an account, events, participant aliases, drink entries, your own pictures and the history stay exclusively local on your device. Only when you sign in for connected groups or shared events is the data required for that processed on our servers. The app calculates no BAC estimates and makes no health or driving-safety statements.
Depending on use, processing may include settings, progress, entitlement status, support messages, optional account identifiers, store purchase verification and technical diagnostics needed to operate, support or restore the app.
Optional account and connected groups/events
For connected groups and shared events you sign in with Google or Apple via Firebase Authentication. Our database stores a pseudonymous account identifier and your freely chosen alias; your email address is processed by Firebase for sign-in and is not stored by us in plain text. In connected groups and events, the group name, event details, RSVP responses, schedule votes and your drink entries (drink, portion, time, corrections) are visible to the authorized members of that event. There is no public feed and no discovery. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. You can delete the account and the server-side data at any time in the app.
Push notifications (optional)
If you enable push notifications, we process your device's Firebase Cloud Messaging token together with the platform, language and a random installation identifier to deliver invitations and event notifications. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. You can disable push at any time in the settings; the registration is then removed on the server.
Local backup
The export under “Backup & device transfer” creates a local file containing your events, participant aliases, drink entries and pictures. This file is currently not encrypted and leaves your device only if you share or store it yourself; the app points this out before the export. Keep backup files in a safe place.
In-app feedback
If you use the feedback form, we store your voluntarily entered text, optionally your contact email, plus the app version, platform and language on our servers to handle your request. Cloudflare Email Service also sends a notification to support@ourround.de. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Ads and tracking
The app does not show third-party advertising and does not build advertising profiles.
Service providers
We use service providers for app distribution, purchases, hosting, authentication, storage and support, in particular Apple, Google Play, Google/Firebase and Cloudflare. Where providers act on our behalf, data processing agreements under Art. 28 GDPR are in place. Store purchases are regularly processed by Apple or Google as independent controllers.
International transfers
Some service providers may process personal data outside the EU/EEA. Where there is no adequacy decision, transfers rely on appropriate safeguards, in particular EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or on applicable statutory exceptions.
Purchases
Purchases are handled through the Apple App Store or Google Play. A store receipt is checked to unlock purchases.
Security
Personal data is transmitted only over encrypted connections. Local app data is stored in the protected app storage of your device.
Retention and deletion
Local data remains on your device until you delete it or remove the app. Optional account and cloud data is stored until account deletion or your deletion request. Purchase and billing records are kept where statutory retention duties apply.
Information about deleting app data and accounts is available at account-deletion.
Your rights
Subject to the statutory requirements, you have the rights under Art. 15–21 GDPR, including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, data portability and objection. You may also lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority; the authority responsible for our registered office is the LfDI Baden-Württemberg.
