1. Introduction

Thank you for choosing 1st Mobility. Our data protection policy is outline in the following section. Before we go into detail, we would like to point out some of the underlying principles. These principles are important for us because we know that they are important for you.

The data protection regulations have three functions:
- To explain how we use the information you share with us to provide you with an excellent product that gives you a great experience;
- To ensure that you understand what information we collect with your consent and what we do and what we do not do with this information;
- To make us responsible for protecting your rights and privacy under this policy.

All information we collect is directly related to the provision of the 1st Mobility service and its features. Generally speaking, there are two categories of information that we collect:

Information that we need to know to enable you to use 1st Mobility Services; And information that we may use to provide additional features and improved results if you choose to provide such information.

The first category includes:
Registration information, which includes name, address and other information you provide during 1st Mobility registration.
General, inaccurate location that we derive from your IP address.
Our licenses to provide our software solutions and services and other content to you are sometimes location-specific, so we need to know what country you are from. This also allows us to provide you with suggestions based on your inaccurate location.
Technical details and sensor information necessary for 1st Mobility GmbH to provide its services. This includes the browser type and the device you are using, data from the touch screen and information from your accelerometer and gyroscope sensor. This enables you to control 1st Mobility services and allows us to provide the services you have subscribed in a proper and application-specific way.

The second category includes:
Information that allows us to offer additional functions to you. We will never receive any of the following information unless you explicitly choose to provide it to us for the purpose of providing our services according to the services you have subscribed.
Here are some examples:

Your exact location:
We will never collect or use your exact location without your explicit consent. This information allows us to provide customized services and services that are location dependent, such as mobility offers available in your region only, etc.

Your photos:
We will only access images that you have created and selected specifically for this purpose and we will never scan or import your photo library or camera memory. This allows you to select individual images to transfer only the photos you want or need for the provision of 1st Mobility services. You can stop sharing photos and revoke access at any time. However, this could limit or even completely prevent the functionality of some 1st Mobility Services.

Your contacts:
We will never scan or import your contacts unless you allow us to do so. If you decide to do so, we will use your contact information only to help you using our 1st Mobility Services in the best possible way.

Your microphone:
We will never access or use your microphone unless you give your explicit consent. This might allow you to control 1st Mobility Services with your voice. You will always have the possibility to block access to the microphone.

The distinction between these two categories is important.
Information in the first category is information we need to provide you with our service. Information in the second category is information that we only collect if you expressly give us permission to do so in the future.
For this second category of information, we will ask for your consent before we access it for the first time. We will describe how we use it when you give us your consent. We will use the information only for the purposes we have described to you and you will have the opportunity to change your mind and withdraw your consent at any time.

Consenting to our Data Protection Policy does not imply that you agree us accessing or us using your information as outlined in the second category; we only tell you that we may one day ask you for your consent. We will always make it clear to you how and when we want to share information.

We hope this introduction will help you understand our obligations regarding your privacy. Please see for the details below, but please remember that this introduction is part of our data protection policy itself - that is our promise to you.

If you have any questions or other concerns, please let us know via welcome@no spam1stmobilityno spam.com
