User-Entered Data
You can use the Wunderlist product either with or without registration. However, without registering, you can use Wunderlist only on certain devices (iPhone, iPod, iPad, Windows, Mac and Android) and cannot use any supplemental functions. You must register in order to be able to use all of the benefits of Wunderlist. To register, you must enter your e-mail address and select a password. We need this information in order to ensure that you can use the full offering. We also need this information, and possible other information as well, in order to be able to respond to your requests, questions, and criticism.
In the future, we plan to introduce the option for you to personalize your account. For example, you will be able to select a photo, choose a user name, and set up a connection to your Facebook user account. There is no obligation to personalize your account. This will be done only on a voluntary basis.
The central function of the Wunderlist product is task management. You can use the product offline as well as online:
If you use it only offline, the data you enter will be stored on your storage medium and not stored centrally. In this case, we have no possibility of accessing this data.
If you use Wunderlist with a registered account, all of the data and tasks that you enter will be synchronized with a database. The purpose of this database is to enable you to use Wunderlist on various devices and access your data anywhere at any time. The data will be transmitted to the respective device securely, using SSL encryption.
We use personal data in order to enable the secure, effective, and user-based use of Wunderlist, for such purposes as:
Internet-based access to the task list
Anonymous statistical evaluation of the task management for 6Wunderkinder's press releases and studies.
Recommendations of Wunderlist by you, using the invite function to friends and acquaintances (e-mail address).
Disclosure of Data
In general, we will not disclose your information to third parties without informing you and asking for your consent. We may transmit your data to third parties without separate, prior notice only as exceptions in the cases explained below:
Personal data will be disclosed to prosecutorial authorities and possibly to injured third parties in the event that this is useful for the investigation of an illegal use of Wunderlist or for prosecution. This will only occur if there are specific indications of illegal or abusive conduct. Data may also be disclosed for purposes of enforcement of the General Business Terms or other agreements. We are also required by law to provide information to certain public agencies upon request: prosecutorial authorities, agencies that prosecute administrative offenses subject to fines, and the tax authorities.
We sometimes rely on outside companies and service providers with which we contract for the provision of services, for example in the areas of sending advertising material (only if you have given your express consent), the settlement of payments (PayPal, Credit Card, etc.), the storage of your data, and customer service. In such cases, information is disclosed to these companies or individuals in order to enable them to process it further. We carefully select these outside service providers and review them regularly to ensure that your privacy is protected. The service providers may not use the data except for the purposes we specify. In addition, the service providers are contractually bound by us to handle your data only as provided in this Data Protection Declaration and the German data protection laws. As our business continues to develop, the structure of 6 Wunderkinder GmbH will be altered in the form of a change of legal form or the establishment, purchase, or sale of subsidiaries, divisions, or components. In transactions of this nature, the customer information is transferred along with the part of the company that is transferred. In any disclosure of personal data to third parties in the scope described above, 6Wunderkinder will ensure that this occurs in accordance with this Data Protection Declaration and the relevant data protection laws.
