(2)               Some personal data may only be processed with Your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can withdraw this consent at any time for the future. "For the future" means that Your withdrawal has no effect on the processing of data that We have made between the granting of Your consent and Your withdrawal. You do not have to justify Your withdrawal. An informal message via e-mail to datenschutz@byke-mobility.com is sufficient.
(3)               We process personal data that We require to fulfill or conclude a contract with You or to carry out pre-contractual measures on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.
(4)               Other personal data We process according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR for the protection of our legitimate interests, e.g. for the technically error-free and optimized provision of our services.
(5)               In addition, it may be necessary to process personal data in order to fulfill a legal obligation that We are subject to (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR) or to protect Your vital interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR).

Additionally, companies that provide services to us and are contracted by BYKE, such as payment providers, can have access to Your personal data. To the extent BYKE uses such contractors, a description of their services can be found below. Unless noted otherwise below, these external companies process data for BYKE as data processors, i.e. based on BYKE’s instructions.
7Duration of Storage
Your personal data will be kept as long as it is necessary for the purposes established in this policy. However, it may happen that the European or national legislator requires a longer storage period. In these cases, the data is not deleted or locked until the corresponding retention period has expired. After this period, the data will be definitively deleted.
8Download / Installation of the Application
(1)               When You download / install our Application, We will ask for permission to use interfaces to access functions and contents of Your device in order to collect certain data including:
-            Your location,
-            Your camera,
-            information about the WLAN connection,
-            information about Your Bluetooth connection.
(2)               Since We require the data to fulfil our contract with You, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.
(3)               We need access to the above interfaces and data in order to provide You with the functions and services of our Application and thus to fulfil our obligations under the general agreement as well as to enable the booking of a Byke or an Electric Scooter. For example, Your location is needed to show You the next Byke or Electric Scooter in Your area and how to get there. In addition, if You rent an Electric Scooter, We track Your location when locking and unlocking the Scooter. If a Byke is rented, We retrieve the location of the Byke directly via a GPS module integrated in the Bykes and not via Your device. Location tracking only takes place to ensure a proper lending and return process or to assist You in the event You report a service case.
(4)               Access is possible from the moment the Application is installed on Your mobile device. Depending on Your settings, this access is permanent or only for the duration of the actual use of the Application. For the highest possible level of data protection, We recommend that You only allow access during the actual use of the Application. The data retrieved in each case are generally stored only for the duration of the actual use of the Application, after which they are deleted. We store Your location retrieved in the event You report a service case for a maximum duration of one year at the time of reporting. We store the location data that We collect in connection with locking and unlocking our Bykes and Electric Scooters for a maximum duration of 3 years. The data will then be made anonymous or will be blocked and deleted according to the rules stated in clause 7 of this Policy regarding “Duration of the Storage”.

10Registration via Facebook Connect
(1)               You also have the option to register in our Application via Facebook Connect. This is a service of Facebook Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. As the registration is performed through Facebook Connect BYKE cannot control the procedure to sign on in the registration. For that reason, BYKE dissociates from any responsibility arising from any breach, action or inaction of Facebook Connect or any breach of third parties that can be performed in the registration procedure. By clicking on the button integrated in our Application for this purpose, You can register with Your Facebook login data and thus speed up the login process. This process links our Application to Your Facebook profile and You consent to the processing of the public data on Your Facebook profile.

Our Application uses Google Firebase authentication. This is a service of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA for identity management. BYKE cannot control the procedure to sign on in the registration. For that reason BYKE dissociates from any responsibility that may arise from any breach, action or inaction of Google Firebase or any breach of third parties that can be performed in the registration procedure. We use this service to make Your authentication easier and more convenient. This service provider has access to personal information required to perform its tasks.

(5)               Special features for single trips: Single trips are always charged depending on the duration of use.
