            Our Motivation
        
        
        
        
            
            
            
                We are hoping that the Corona virus will soon be under control such that we can return to normality.
            
        
        
            
            
            
                Modern app technologies can play an important role in containing the virus.
            
        
        
            
            
            
                But we don’t have to sacrifice our privacy for this.
            
        
    
        
            The Principle
        
        
                
                        
                    
                
                
                        
                    
                

                
                    
                        
                        
                    
                    
                        
                                To stop a viral outbreak, you must break the chain of transmission. You can do this by isolating contagious people.
                            
                    
                

                
                    
                        
                        
                    
                    
                        
                                Only, there is a problem with COVID-19. Infected people can be contagious, before having symptoms, which means: You can spread the virus without knowing.
                            
                    
                


                
                    
                        
                        
                    
                    
                        
                                If only people with symptoms isolate themselves, the virus can still spread. We are one step behind.
                            
                    
                


                
                    
                        
                        
                    
                    
                        
                                If only people with symptoms isolate themselves, the virus can still spread. We are one step behind.
                            
                    
                

                
                    
                        
                        
                    
                    
                        
                                Therefore, exposed contacts should be informed. Then, they can also precociously isolate early – before they feel sick.
                            
                    
                


                
                    
                        
                        
                    
                    
                        
                                Not everyone exposed contact will have the Virus. But those who do won’t pass it on. The trick is to be one step ahead.
                            
                    
                


                
                    
                        
                        
                    
                    
                        
                                The trick is to be one step ahead.

                What does the app do?
                Recognizes  encounters
                Via P2P (peer2peer) Bluetooth the app recognizes ecounters with other users. Such encouters will be registered by the app if two users stand next to each other for a certain time period.

                What does the app do?
                Protects your data
                Encounters with other users are only saved locally on your smartphone. Each App has its own dynamic ID that is randomly generated via «HMAC(SHA256)» and changes every 60 seconds. This way each user remains anonymous.

                What can you do?
                Report infections
                If you test positive, you can inform everyone you’ve encountered with through the app. Everything happens anonymously, no one can see who sent the message.
            
        


        
            
            
            
                What does the app do?
                Inform encounters
                The App informs all encounters about the infection. The message is anonymous. There is now a risk for the users you’ve encountered with to also be infected. The app provides you with information on how to proceed

                Take measures
                Encounters informed via the app can take action e.g. Self-isolation.
This is the only way to be one step ahead.
