Tourwith's Privacy Policy describes how Tourwith collects, uses, and deletes your data. In addition to this Privacy Policy, we provide data and privacy information specific to our products that use your personal data.

The Privacy Policy is to be read and understood as being a complement to our Terms of Service.

1. Legal framework

The Services are operated by Tourwith (the "Company", "We"). It is therefore governed by the laws and regulations applicable law.

2. Data Tourwith collects from you, and how we use it

Our overriding policy is to collect as little user information (personal data included) as possible to ensure a private user experience when using the Services. We do not have the technical means to access the content of your encrypted emails, files, calendar events, passwords, or notes.

Data collection is limited to the following:

We employ a local installation of self-developed analytics tools. Analytics are anonymized whenever possible and stored locally (and not on the cloud). IP addresses are not retained and stored for such analytics.

2.2 Account creation

Depending on the Services you want to use, you can either create a Tourwith account with a Tourwith Mail address.

Creating a Tourwith account will give you access to all our Services. It is not necessary to provide personal information in order to create an Account. You can provide an external email address for notification or password recovery purposes. Should you choose to provide it, we associate this email address with your Account (for password recovery or notification purposes). Such data will only be used to contact you with important notifications about the Services, to send you information related to security, to verify your account or to send you password recovery links if you enable the option. We may also inform you about Tourwith products in which you might have an interest. The legal basis for processing is consent and you are free to modify this in your Account settings panel at any time.

You can choose at any moment to create a Tourwith email address for this account to use Tourwith Mail and Calendar, too. Your email will only be used to contact you with important notifications about the Services, to send you information related to security, to verify your account or to send you password recovery links if you enable the option. We may also inform you about Tourwith products in which you might have an interest.

In order to pursue our legitimate interest of preventing the creation of accounts by spam bots or human spammers, we use a variety of human verification methods. Verification may also be requested for some sensitive operations besides account creation in order to protect against brute-force attacks. You may be asked to verify using either email, or SMS. IP addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers provided are saved temporarily in order to send you a verification code and for anti-spam purposes.
