Effective date

1. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to the Plaza Globetrotter mobile application for iPhone and Apple Watch and related service interactions used to deliver its features. It does not replace the general privacy policy for the swaibian.com website.
Plaza Globetrotter is a private companion product for Plaza that lets signed-in users capture thoughts, tasks, and short chat-style inputs while away from the desktop and receive replies and delivery updates on mobile devices.
2. Controller
The controller responsible for processing personal data in connection with Plaza Globetrotter is swaibian UG (haftungsbeschraenkt), Scherrenstrasse 10, 70327 Stuttgart, Germany.
If you have privacy questions or requests, you can contact us at contact@swaibian.com.
3. Data We Process
Depending on how you use the app, we may process authentication information, user-authored content, delivery and sync state, device registration data for notifications, and limited technical information required to operate the service securely and reliably.
This includes data such as your signed-in account association, text you submit as thoughts, tasks, or messages, reply and status events, push notification tokens, sync cursors, device registry information, and local session state stored on your devices.
4. How We Use Data
We process data to authenticate you, receive and route your mobile submissions through Swaiboard Satellite and Plaza Desktop, deliver replies and status updates, keep your inbox and queue in sync across devices, and maintain the security, integrity, and reliability of the service.
We may also process data to troubleshoot incidents, prevent abuse, comply with legal obligations, and enforce our terms and internal security requirements.
5. Legal Bases
Where applicable under data protection law, we process data because it is necessary to provide the service you request, to perform steps connected with your use of the app, to protect legitimate interests such as service security and reliability, and to comply with legal obligations.
If a specific processing activity requires consent under applicable law, we will rely on consent for that activity.
6. Authentication and Sign-In
Plaza Globetrotter currently reuses the existing Swaiboard identity flow based on GitHub OAuth for mobile sign-in. When you authenticate, authentication-related information is processed to sign you in and associate your actions with the correct Wodivity account.
GitHub and any other identity providers involved in that sign-in flow process data under their own terms and privacy policies. We recommend reviewing those policies separately.
7. Notifications and Device Data
If you enable notifications, we process device registration information and push notification tokens so we can deliver reply updates and delivery-state notifications to your iPhone and Apple Watch.
The app also stores limited local state on your devices, such as session tokens, queue state, sync cursors, and lightweight continuity data needed for the app to function.
8. Tracking, Advertising, and Analytics
Plaza Globetrotter is not designed to track you across third-party apps or websites for advertising purposes.
Based on the current product design, the app does not use third-party advertising SDKs and does not collect app data for third-party marketing or cross-app tracking.
9. Sharing of Data
We may share data within the Wodivity and Swaibian service environment to operate Plaza Globetrotter, including Swaiboard Satellite, Plaza Desktop, Donna-related processing flows, hosting, notification delivery, and supporting infrastructure providers acting on our behalf.
We do not sell personal data. We may disclose information where necessary to comply with law, enforce rights, protect users or systems, or complete business or service operations through vetted service providers.
10. International Processing
Depending on the services used to operate the product, your data may be processed in countries other than your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for such transfers.
11. Retention
We retain data for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, maintain continuity features, support security and abuse prevention, resolve disputes, and comply with legal, accounting, or regulatory obligations.
Retention periods can vary by data type. Some data may also remain temporarily in backups, logs, and replicated systems for operational reasons.
12. Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No system can be guaranteed completely secure, but we aim to limit access and handle data through controlled service paths.
13. Your Rights
Subject to applicable law, you may have rights to request access to personal data, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, or data portability, and to withdraw consent where consent is the basis for processing.
To exercise rights or make a privacy request, contact contact@swaibian.com. We may need to verify your identity before processing a request.
14. Children
Plaza Globetrotter is not intended for children. If you believe personal data of a child has been provided to us inappropriately, contact us and we will review the request.
15. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The version published on this page is the current version for the app unless a later effective date is stated.
