Living25 is offering a holistic SaaS product consisting of tenant-facing mobile apps combining features like community, access control, smart home features and a variety of services (the Living25 Platform”).
As one part of the Living25 Platform, Living25 is offering a building administration and management system (the “Living25 Administrator System”) for its customers who administrate buildings (“Building Administrators”) and use the Living25 Administrator System for their own administration purposes and are thus the controller of personal data processed through the Living25 Administrator System. With regard to such data processing, we make reference to the Privacy Policy of the Building Administrator of the building with regard to which the Living25 Administrator System is used.
The Living25 Platform, however, includes services, which are provided by Living25 to you, as a tenant or other user, without involvement of the Building Administrator (the “Living25 User Services”). Therefore, Living25 is the controller of your personal data processed in connection with the Living25 User Services.
1. Name and contact Details of the Controller
