## What is myGuardian?

about MyGuardian

In an emergency situation, the myGuardian app is the fast assistant at your side. First of all, the app
shows you the correct emergency number for the country you are in. This can be particularly
important when traveling abroad where you do not immediately know the emergency number.
In addition, when you start the myGuardian app, your GPS coordinates are also detected and
displayed in addition to your current address. This can be communicated to the local rescue service
in the form of latitude and longitude during a telephone call. This enables the emergency services to
find you more quickly.
If the situation permits, the app also provides you with assistance in carrying out first aid measures
(chest compressions with sound).


However, in an emergency, the first few seconds before the emergency services can arrive are often
extremely important. Getting the right rescue equipment in just a few seconds can mean the
difference between life and death. Be it a lifebuoy or an automatic defibrillator.
Therefore, every time the app is started, myGuardian automatically checks whether there is an
automatic rescue drone nearby and shows which rescue equipment is
available. With just one click you can call this rescue drone directly to you. In just a few seconds, the
alerted rescue drone will be hovering above you. You can then initiate further rescue steps via the
myGuardian app in coordination with the connected drone pilot.


Additional functions:
If an area operator (hotel/beach/bathing lake/concert) offers a local rescue service (e.g. Lifeguard) in
your current area, you can also alert them directly via the myGuardian app. To do this, log in in
advance using the QR code displayed on or in the area and the local emergency service number will
be displayed in the app.


The myGuardian app is and remains free to enable quick, no-cost rescues.
The app is financed exclusively through embedded advertising banners. These are displayed on the
location page. The page also shows additional valuable information (heat index, UV index, if activated
water temperature and flag status) about the area you are staying in.
