The data you enter may be used for reporting and validation analysis of satellite-based algal and cyanobacterial bloom information. A location, date and water colour category are required for this communication. Providing any additional information is optional.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form occurs based on a legitimate interest (Art. 6 Para. 1 (f) GDPR).
By providing the reporting form, we aim to facilitate an uncomplicated means for you to contact us and report an algal or cyanobacterial bloom. The nonpersonal information you enter will be saved and may be used for satellite data and product validation purposes. Additionally, the reported water colour, date and location will be publicly displayed on the App for other users.
Recipients of the data may be processors.
Non-personal data shall be anonymised and archived for scientific and research purposes. All personal data will be deleted immediately upon anonymisation and archivisation of the associated non-personal data.
However, we can only process your inquiry if you provide us with a location, date and water colour of the bloom you wish to report.
We use Google Maps in this App. Google Maps is operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (hereinafter ‘Google’). This allows us to show you interactive maps directly in the App, allowing you to conveniently use the map feature.
You’ll find additional information about Google’s data processing on the Google privacy policy page, where you can also change your personal privacy settings in the data protection center.

Your consent is the legal basis for the integration of Google Maps and the associated data transfer to Google (Art. 6 Para. 1 (a) GDPR).
By using the App, Google receives information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our App. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged into, or if there is no user account.
When you are logged into Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not want this assignment in your Google profile, you must log out of Google before activating the button. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for advertising, market research and/or tailor-made design of its website. Such an analysis occurs in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our App. You have the right to object to the formation of these user profiles, but you must submit this objection to Google.
We do not collect any personal data via the integration of Google Maps.
If you do not want Google to collect, process or use information about you via our App, you can disable location permissions for this App. In this case, you can only partially use our App as some functionalities will not be available to you.
The provision of your personal data is voluntary, based solely on your consent. If you prevent access, this can lead to functionality limitations in the App.
To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use state-of-theart encryption methods (such as SSL) via HTTPS.
We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy so that it always complies with current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services in the privacy policy, e.g. when introducing new services. Your next visit will be subject to the new privacy policy.
