2. About This Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal data collected through the App. It is written to comply with:
Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the GDPR).
Greek Law 4624/2019 implementing the GDPR.
Greek Law 3471/2006 on the protection of personal data and privacy in electronic communications.
Privacy disclosure requirements of the Apple App Store and Google Play.
3. Our Role: Controller and Processor
The App is sold to organizations as a workforce safety and compliance tool. Most of the personal data processed through the App relates to workers, contractors, visitors, and other persons whose data is provided by the organization (the Customer).
For that data, the Customer is the data controller and we act as a data processor on behalf of the Customer. The Customer's privacy notices and instructions govern that processing. Our processing on behalf of the Customer is regulated by a Data Processing Agreement that complies with Article 28 GDPR.
For a limited set of processing activities we act as the data controller. These are described in section 7.
4. Personal Data We Collect
Depending on how the App is configured by the Customer and how you use it, we may process the following categories of personal data:
Account data: name, email, phone, employee or contractor ID, role, employer.
Authentication data: hashed passwords, login timestamps, device identifiers.
Workplace data: site assignments, supervisor, contractor company, project codes.
Training and certification data: training records, certificates, expiry dates, induction completion.
Access control data: site entry and exit times, access points, badge identifiers.
Inspection, hazard, and incident data: reports submitted, photos, observations, signatures, geolocation tags.
Photos and media: images uploaded for inspections, hazards, or evidence.
Location data: where enabled by the Customer and authorized by you, location at the time of submission of a record or at site entry.
Device and technical data: device model, operating system, App version, IP address, crash logs, diagnostic data.
Communications data: messages, notifications, support requests.
5. Special Categories of Personal Data
Some data processed through the App may fall within the special categories of Article 9 GDPR. This may include:
Health data: incident reports, near-miss records, medical fitness statements.
Biometric data: where the Customer enables a biometric access feature, this may involve facial templates or other biometric identifiers used to uniquely identify you.
Special category data is processed only on a lawful basis under Article 9 GDPR, typically for purposes of carrying out obligations and exercising rights in the field of employment and social protection (Article 9(2)(b)) or for protecting vital interests (Article 9(2)(c)).
The Customer is responsible for determining the appropriate legal basis and for conducting any required Data Protection Impact Assessment when activating these features.
6. How We Collect Your Data
We collect personal data:
Directly from you, when you create an account, log in, or submit a record.
From the Customer, when you are added as a user, worker, or contractor.
Automatically when you use the App, through technical and diagnostic data.
From third-party identity providers, if the Customer uses single sign-on.
7. Why We Process Your Data and Legal Bases
When acting as a processor on behalf of a Customer, we process data only on the documented instructions of the Customer.
When acting as a controller, we process data for the following purposes:
| Purpose | Categories of Data | Legal Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Account creation and authentication | Account, authentication, device | Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) |

| Customer support | Account, communications | Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Compliance with legal obligations | All categories as required | Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)) |
| Defense of legal claims | All categories as required | Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) |
| Product improvement | Aggregated technical data | Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) |
| Service communications about the App | Account, contact | Contract or legitimate interests |
| Marketing communications | Contact | Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)) |
You can object to processing based on legitimate interests at any time. You can withdraw consent at any time without affecting prior processing.
8. Sharing Your Data
We share personal data with:
The Customer, where data is processed on its behalf.
Service providers acting as processors, including cloud hosting (e.g. Hetzner), email and notification providers, analytics, customer support, and security tools. These providers are bound by written agreements requiring them to process data only on our instructions and to apply appropriate security measures.
Authorities, where required by Greek law, including the Labour Inspectorate (ΣΕΠΕ), tax authorities, and judicial or police authorities responding to lawful requests.
Professional advisers, including lawyers and auditors, under duties of confidentiality.
Acquirers, in the event of a corporate transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards.
We do not sell personal data.
9. International Transfers
Personal data is stored primarily within the European Economic Area.
Where data is transferred to a third country, for example where a service provider operates outside the EEA, we put in place appropriate safeguards under Chapter V of the GDPR. These typically include the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, with supplementary technical and organizational measures where required.
You can request a copy of the safeguards in place by contacting us.
10. Retention
We retain personal data for as long as needed to fulfil the purposes set out in this Policy and to comply with our legal and contractual obligations.
Specific retention periods:
Account data: for the duration of the Customer's subscription, plus a reasonable period for record-keeping and dispute resolution.
Training and certification records: for the period required by Greek workplace safety law and any sector-specific obligations.
Inspection, hazard, incident, and access control records: for the period required by Greek workplace safety and labour law, or as instructed by the Customer.
Diagnostic and security data: typically up to twelve months.
Marketing data: until you withdraw consent, or for two years from the last interaction.
When data is no longer needed we delete it or anonymize it. When acting as a processor we retain data for as long as instructed by the Customer.
11. Security
We apply technical and organizational measures appropriate to the risk, including:
Encryption in transit and at rest.
Access controls and authentication.
Logging and monitoring.
Regular backups.
Staff training and confidentiality undertakings.
Vendor due diligence.
No system is fully secure. If a personal data breach affects you, we will notify the Customer and, where relevant, you and the Hellenic Data Protection Authority, in line with Articles 33 and 34 GDPR.
12. Your Rights Under the GDPR
You have the following rights regarding your personal data:
Access to your data and a copy of it.
Rectification of inaccurate or incomplete data.
Erasure, in certain circumstances.
Restriction of processing.
Portability, where the legal basis is consent or contract and the processing is automated.
Objection to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling.
Withdrawal of consent at any time, where processing is based on consent.
To exercise these rights contact us at contact@nexteragroup.gr. We respond within one month, with a possible two-month extension for complex requests.
If we are processing your data as a processor for a Customer, we will refer your request to the Customer.
13. Right to Lodge a Complaint
You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (Αρχή Προστασίας Δεδομένων Προσωπικού Χαρακτήρα):
Address: Kifissias 1-3, 115 23 Athens, Greece.

Website: https://www.dpa.gr.
You may also lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority of your habitual residence or place of work within the EU.
14. Automated Decision-Making
The App may compute compliance scores, training statuses, and access eligibility automatically. These outputs are decision-support and not solely automated decisions producing legal effects on you within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR.
If a Customer configures a feature that does produce a solely automated decision with legal or similarly significant effect, the Customer is responsible for ensuring an Article 22 lawful basis and for providing meaningful information to data subjects.
15. Children
The App is intended for adult workers and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect data from individuals under 18. If you believe a minor has provided personal data through the App, contact us so we can take appropriate action.
16. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The App is a native mobile application and does not use browser cookies. It uses technical identifiers required for authentication, security, and crash diagnostics. Where applicable, we ask for your consent for analytics and tracking technologies in line with Greek Law 3471/2006 and the ePrivacy framework.
17. App Permissions
The App may request the following permissions on your device:
Camera: to take photos for inspections, hazards, or evidence.
Photo library: to select existing photos for upload.
Location (foreground only by default): to tag records and confirm site entry.
Push notifications: to alert you to assignments, expiring certifications, and safety messages.
Files and storage: to attach documents to reports.
Biometric authentication on the device (Face ID, Touch ID, fingerprint): to log in securely. Biometric data used for device authentication stays on your device and is not transmitted to us.
You can revoke these permissions at any time in your device settings. Revoking certain permissions may limit App functionality.
