Privacy policy
Schyrm is a free, non-commercial app by Klaus Prünster from South Tyrol, Italy. This page explains what data the app needs, where it is kept and what you can do about it.
In short
- Your documents are end-to-end encrypted. Nobody but your household can read them, including us.
- Everything else is readable by our server, so it can sync your household and send reminders.
- No tracking and no ads, in the app or on this website.
- Hosted in Germany.
- You can delete your account in the app at any time.
What we process
Your account: you sign in with Apple. We receive an identifier and, if you choose, your email address. We also keep your language and what is needed to send you notifications.
Your household’s data: what you add and enter, your tasks and who belongs to the household. Everyone in a household sees this data.
Your documents are encrypted on your device. We only receive the encrypted file and can neither read it nor recover it without your key.
When you visit this website, our server logs your IP address, the page and the time. We keep these logs, and the app’s technical logs, only as long as needed to run the service safely.
If you write to us, we receive your email address and your message and use them only to answer you.
Why
We process this data only to provide the app to you and your household (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and, where needed, to keep the service safe (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Who else is involved
We use Hetzner in Germany for hosting, Apple for sign-in and notifications, and Sentry in its EU region for error reports, each only as far as the app needs it. Apple may process data outside the EU, for example in the USA, and is responsible for that under its own privacy policy. Emails to our contact address are handled by Google (Gmail), which may also process them outside the EU. We don’t sell your data and don’t share it with anyone else.
How long we keep it
As long as you use Schyrm. If you delete your account, we remove your data; backups expire on their own shortly after.
Your rights
You can ask for access to your data, have it corrected or deleted, restrict its processing, get a copy and object to processing. You can also complain to a data protection authority; in Italy that is the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali.
