What data is processed and for what purpose?
The data controller only processes the following data for the purposes indicated below:
- User ID (generated in the APP) used to enable key features such as accurate geolocation, usage data analysis, integration with other applications and traceability of the user experience within the APP.
- Device IP address, which is collected for security purposes, technical validation of downloads and to obtain aggregate statistics on the use of the APP.
- Name, alias, comments and email address (optional) are only processed if the user decides to provide them voluntarily, for example, to receive a personalised summary of their journey or experience via email.
- Photographs and personal notes are content that the user records during their journey, but are not processed by the data controller.
They remain stored exclusively on the user's device and are not transmitted or processed by our servers.
How is data collected?
- Personal data may be collected or processed, in whole or in part, when using the APP in accordance with its Terms and Conditions.
- Technical data (user ID and IP address) are generated and collected automatically when the user downloads and uses the APP.
- Contact details (name, alias and email address) are only collected if the user provides them voluntarily, for example when requesting a personalised summary of their itinerary or experience on the app to be sent by email.
What is the legal basis for data processing?
The processing of personal data carried out through the APP is based on the following legal grounds:
- The user's consent (Art. 6.1.a GDPR), expressly granted when accepting certain features of the APP, constitutes the legal basis for:
- - the processing of the user ID when enabling features such as precise geolocation or integration with other applications.
- - processing of the name, alias and email address when the user decides to provide them voluntarily in order to receive a personalised summary of their experience.
- The legitimate interest of the controller (Art. 6.1.f GDPR), duly weighed, is the legal basis for:
- - The processing of the device's IP address for security purposes, technical validation of downloads and the compilation of aggregate statistics on the use of the APP.
- - The processing of the user ID for technical purposes that are essential to ensure the proper functioning, maintenance and improvement of the user experience in the APP.
Is data shared or cross-referenced?
The data controller may cross-reference the IP address and user ID with information from (I) app stores (such as Google Play or the App Store) in order to technically validate the download and legitimate use of the app, (II) other apps owned by or linked to associated organizations, for the purposes of analysis, service improvement and personalisation of the user experience, always within the same environment or digital ecosystem.
No personal data is communicated to third parties, unless there is a legal obligation to do so or when necessary for the provision of the service through external providers acting as data processors, with contracts in accordance with the GDPR that guarantee the confidentiality, security and limited use of the data.
Are international data transfers carried out?
In general, no international data transfers are made to third countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA).
However, if any of the providers that provide services to the data controller acting as data processor are located outside the EEA or use infrastructure located in third countries, it will be ensured that such transfers are made with the appropriate safeguards, in accordance with Articles 44 to 49 of the GDPR.
In particular, mechanisms such as the existence of an adequacy decision by the European Commission, the signing of standard contractual clauses approved by the Commission, or the adoption of binding corporate rules, among other applicable measures, will be applied.
How long is the data kept?
The data controller processes personal data for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, as well as to retain your personal information in compliance with the provisions of the relevant laws and regulations.
Personal data of third parties
With regard to personal data relating to other individuals, which the controller must communicate to the data controller in order to provide the services of the APP, the data controller must, prior to communication, inform them of the points contained in the preceding paragraphs.
What rights can be exercised?
Users may exercise the following rights:
- Right to request access to personal data: you may ask the data controller whether it is processing your data and, if so, access it.

Likewise, if the user exercises their right to delete the data necessary for the controller to provide the services of the APP, the controller will be obliged to terminate their relationship with the user, proceeding to remove them from the APP, without the user having any right to claim and without affecting the rest of the relationships they have with the controller.
To exercise their rights, users must send a written communication to: Silvestre Studio S.L., Can Puig s/n de Castellfollit del Boix (08255), Barcelona or to the email address [email protected].
Data security
The controller maintains the levels of security required by the GDPR and other related regulations applicable and in force at any given time, and has established all technical means at its disposal to prevent the loss, misuse, alteration, unauthorised access and theft of the data provided by the User through the APP.
In any case, the data controller shall take appropriate technical and organisational measures, both when designing the data processing system and at the time of the processing itself, to preserve security and prevent unauthorised processing.
However, despite the diligent implementation of such measures, the user should be aware that security measures on the Internet are not impregnable.
