- Device permissions
For the app to work on your device, it must access device functions and data. This requires that you grant permissions to the app (Art. 6 (1a) GDPR). Permissions are set up differently by manufacturers; for example, on Android devices, permissions are grouped into categories and you can only grant access within a single category. Please note, you may not be able to use all features of our app if one or more permissions are declined. The app requires permissions exclusively for testing and optimizing your device or to transfer your device data to your new device.
When permissions are granted by you, we use these to the extent described below:
