Notes on permissions

Please note that the app may require access to device functions.

Of course, no personal data from you will be collected, transmitted or used in any other way.

Calendar:

The app makes it possible to save collection appointment reminders directly in your device calendar. This requires the "Calendar" permission.

Location:

On some pages, the app can sort search results by distance from your location, making your search much easier. Of course, before using the device location, permission will be asked again and your location will not be transmitted to us.

Phone/Device ID/Call Info:

To remind you of appointments even more conveniently, some providers support push notifications. The phone identity of your device is required for this. However, this number is only saved if you activate the push notification in the app. We also use them exclusively to be able to remind you via push. Access to call information prevents you from receiving annoying notifications during a call. This information will not be misused.

Storage/Photos/Media/Files/Camera:

Some providers of the waste app support the reporting of waste deposits. For this purpose, a photo can be taken or uploaded in addition to the textual description. You can then send this photo to the responsible disposal company. Photos are only taken and transmitted if you explicitly request this.

Network access:

The app is loaded directly from the Internet when the user interface is updated or bug fixes are made. Network access is required for this. In order to reduce data consumption, however, the app is saved after loading so that all data is also available offline.

We hereby guarantee you again that we do not collect or use any data from you, except for the purpose described above. It may be that the app asks for the mentioned permissions, although these are not used at the moment. In this case, your disposal company has not yet activated the intended functionality and the corresponding data will not be requested.
