At AnnuCal, we understand the trust you place in us when managing your data. That’s why we’re committed to safeguarding your privacy with robust measures aligned with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). From secure communication and certified data storage to full transparency in how we process your information, we prioritize your peace of mind. Here, you’ll find detailed insights into how we manage, protect, and respect your data every step of the way.

1. GDPR Compliance and Full User Control
Your data is processed in accordance with the strict requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). You retain full sovereignty over your data, with the ability to view, edit, and delete your information at any time. We never disclose your data to third parties without your explicit consent.

2. Certified and Secure Data Center
AnnuCal operates within a high-performance, certified data center located in Frankfurt, Germany. This ensures your data remains under the jurisdiction of GDPR at all times. The data center adheres to the highest standards for access security, failure prevention, and is powered by renewable energy sources. Continuous monitoring and automated backups further protect your data from loss or unauthorized access.

3. Secure Communication and Encryption
All communication between your browser and our servers is encrypted using SSL/TLS, the same security standard trusted by online banking systems. You can recognize this protection through the “https://” in your browser’s address bar, ensuring your data is transmitted securely at all times.

4. Automatic Data Backups 
To protect against data loss, AnnuCal performs automated backups every 24 hours. These backups are stored on separate servers, ensuring that even in the unlikely event of hardware failure, your data can be restored quickly and reliably. Backup data is retained for a maximum of 14 days before automatic deletion.

5. No Data Sharing or Advertising Use 
Your data is used solely for the purposes of operating AnnuCal and its features. It will never be transferred to third parties, sold, or used for advertising. Email addresses provided are strictly for account functionality, such as notifications and account recovery, and will never be disclosed or used for promotional purposes.

6. Transparency and Data Access 
AnnuCal makes it clear what data is required for functionality at every step. For example, when creating an account, your name and email address are requested to provide personalized services. Beyond these essentials, you control what additional data you enter, manage, or delete.

Your data is protected with rigorous technical and organizational measures to ensure its safety. Server log data, such as IP addresses or browser types, is only collected to ensure proper functioning and is not tied to personal identifiers. Cookies are used minimally and only for essential functionalities, such as maintaining your login session.

9. No International Data Transfers Without Consent
Your data is stored exclusively within the EU, except for optional features like Single Sign-On (SSO). SSO providers (e.g., Google) may request limited data access, which only occurs with your explicit consent.
