3. Purposes of Data Collection, Legal Basis and Legitimate Interests Pursued by Us or a Third Party, and Categories of Recipients

3.1. Accessing our Service

If you access our Service, especially by visiting our website or app, the app or the browser used on your device automatically sends information to our server and temporarily stores it in a log file. The following information is collected without your intervention and stored until it is automatically or manually deleted in the log file:

Your device’s IP address
Date and time of access
The name and URL of the retrieved file, the website/app from which access was made (referrer URL)
Your browser’s unique identifier
The name of your Internet provider

The processing of the aforementioned data is based on Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest arises from the uses listed below. At this point, we note that we are unable and do not attempt to draw any conclusions about your identity from the data collected. Your device’s IP address and the other information listed above are used by us for the following purposes:

To ensure that a trouble-free connection can be established
To ensure the convenient use of our Service
To evaluate system security and stability
Other administrative purposes

The data is stored in compliance with legally established data retention periods and then deleted automatically. We also use cookies, tracking tools, targeting methods and interfaces to other services such as social media platforms, payment processors or app store providers. The exact procedures, and how your data will be used for this purpose, are explained in more detail in section 4 below.

3.2. Concluding, Performing or Terminating an Agreement

Data Collected when concluding an agreement

We primarily define our Services as those of a personal fitness trainer: Based on your own self-defined training goals, we prepare your personal training and nutritional plan with workouts, suggested recipes and a broad variety of other information about health, fitness and nutrition. To do this, we collect the information required to conclude, perform or terminate an agreement. This includes:

E-mail address
First and last name
Billing and payment information
Information you enter yourself and that is generated during the use of our Services, such as gender, age, height, weight, training goals, training history, sporting activities, mealtimes, etc.

The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1) a) and b) and Art. 9(2) a) of the GDPR. Unless we use your contact information for customer support or customer service (see details under 3.3), the information required to conclude the agreement is stored until it is no longer needed for this purpose and/or until the rights under any guarantee or warranty expire. Subsequently, we retain the required personal information for the periods established by law. During this retention period (usually six to 10 years after conclusion of the agreement), the information is used only in the case of an audit by the tax authority.

3.3. Data Processing for Customer Support or Customer Service

3.3.1. Informational purposes

If you have signed-up for our services, we keep you as an existing customer. In this case, we process your contact information in order to send you information about new, enhanced or improved features, products and services, etc.

3.3.2. Personalized ads

To ensure that you receive only information that corresponds to your interests, we classify and add information to your customer profile. For this purpose, both statistical information as well as information about you (such as basic or historical data from your customer profile) are used. The goal is to optimize our Services by adapting them to your actual or perceived interests and/or needs, and to send you the appropriate recommendations and not bother you with useless ads.

The legal basis for each of the aforementioned data uses is Art. 6(1) b) and f) of the GDPR and Art. 9(2) a) of the GDPR. The use of existing customer data for the company’s own advertising purpose is recognized as a legitimate interest under Recital 47 of the GDPR.

3.3.3. Newsletters

One of our Services is to offer prospective customers the opportunity to sign-up for our newsletter. We use the double opt-in process to confirm that the email address entered actually corresponds to the prospective customer. After the email address is entered, we send you a confirmation link. Your email address will only be included on our mailing list after you click on this confirmation link. We store the information collected during this process only for purposes of documentation and proof. This includes:

The email address you provide
Your IP address
The date and time of registration
Form of address
The date, content and time of the confirmation email
The IP address of the device used for the confirmation
The date and time of your confirmation

The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1) a) GDPR. We store this information until the contract relationship ends as proof of the legality of sending the newsletter. After the contract relationship ends, we retain the required personal information for the period specified by law. During this period (usually 10 years from the conclusion of the agreement), the data will only be processed again in the event of a tax audit. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. Simply click on the unsubscribe button in the respective e-mail or send a short note by e-mail. Please use the options to contact the company’s data privacy officer for this purpose.

3.3.4. Right to Object

You may object to the use of your data for the aforementioned purposes at any time free of charge for each communication channel and with effect for the future. An email or a letter sent using the contact information shown under 1. is sufficient for this purpose.

Once you submit your objection, we will block the relevant contact address for future advertising data processing. We will process your objection as soon as possible and implement the appropriate blocking measures immediately after it is confirmed. Please note that in some exceptional cases the relevant information or product recommendations may still be received even after receipt of your objection. This is simply due to technical reasons and does not mean your objection has not been processed. Thank you very much for your understanding.

4. Data Processing for the Provision of our Services

In this section, we inform you about the data processing necessary for the provision of our Services:

4.1. Online Presence and Website Optimization

We will not sell or lease your information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent. We only disclose certain information to third parties from time to time to be able to offer the best possible product to our customers, improve the quality of our Services and protect the interests of our customers. However, this disclosure will always be subject to strict limitations, which are described in more detail below.

4.1.1. Cookies – General Information

We use cookies on our website in compliance with Art. 6(1) f) of the GDPR. Our interest in improving our Services is recognized as legitimate in the aforementioned provision. Cookies are small files generated automatically by your browser and stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you use our Services. Cookies do not harm your device, and do not contain viruses, Trojans or other malware. Cookies contain information downloaded by the specific device. This does not mean, however, that we receive direct knowledge of your identity. One purpose of cookies is to make it more convenient for you to use our Services. For example, we use session cookies to track your use of the individual pages of our website or when you have logged on to your customer account. When you use our Service again at a later time, the cookie automatically recognizes your previous visit to the website, as well as your input and settings, so that you do not have to enter them again. To make the site more user friendly, we also use temporary cookies, which are stored on your device for a pre-determined period of time. These cookies are automatically deleted when you log off.

If you already have a customer account and are logged on, the information stored on the cookies are associated with that account.

Another reason we use cookies is to gather statistics on the use of our Services and evaluate them in order to optimize your experience and to display information tailored to you. These cookies allow us to automatically recognize that you have visited our site before. The cookies are automatically deleted after a pre-defined period. Most browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can disable cookies on your browser or choose to be notified when a new cookie is created. However, disabling cookies completely may mean that not all features of our services will be available to you. The storage period of cookies depends on their purpose and is not the same for all of them.

4.1.2. Sentry

We are constantly improving and developing our website to provide our users with the best possible customer experience. However, not all malfunctions, such as those caused by programming errors, can be reliably ruled out from the start. Therefore, we use Sentry, an error tracking tool from Functional Software Inc., 132 Hawthorne St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA (hereinafter “Sentry”). To improve the accessibility and technical stability of our website by monitoring system stability and detecting code errors, we may automatically send the following information to Sentry in the event of a software failure:

Device information (operating system, browser version, browser type)
The IP address of the device
Email
Name
Date and time of error

The legal basis of the aforementioned data processing is Art. 6(1) f) of the GDPR. There is no explicit analysis for advertising purposes in this process. The information is collected anonymously, is not used for personal reasons, and is subsequently deleted. This analysis helps us to continuously improve our website and fix hidden code errors. Such processing is in our legitimate interest because the data is used solely for identifying and analysing errors. For more information on Sentry’s data processing and how it works, see Sentry’s privacy policy: https://sentry.io/privacy/

In the event that personal data is processed here, you can object to it at any time by simply informing us that you no longer wish to have such processing in the future. Please use the contact options of our company data privacy officer for this purpose.

4.1.3. Facebook Pixel

To set up, continuously improve, and track the conversion of our Facebook campaigns as required, in compliance with Art. 6(1) f) of the GDPR, we use the individual visitor action pixel of Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter “Facebook”). This pixel is integrated into our website’s code. This helps us ensure that the Facebook ads we initiate are only displayed to Facebook users who have shown interest in our Services. In this way we know that our Facebook ads correspond to the potential interest of the respective users and not bothering them. It also allows us to track the actions of Facebook users after they have viewed or clicked on one of our Facebook ads. At the same time, it helps us track the conversion of the respective campaign for statistical, market-research and billing purposes. The following information is collected during its use:

Time stamp
URL
Campaign-related information (particularly impression, form field and activated button specifications)

Information collected in this way is anonymous to us and therefore does not provide us with any information about the identity of the respective user. Such processing for behavioural and interest-based advertising purposes is recognized as in our legitimate interest under Recital 47 of the GDPR. The data is stored in accordance with the legally established retention periods and then automatically deleted.

When you log on after placing the pixel on your Facebook account, or you visit our website while logged on, Facebook might store and process this information, which is why we would like to inform you about this. Facebook can connect this data with your Facebook account and use it for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with Facebook’s data policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. You can find more information about Facebook Pixel here. You can enable Facebook and its partners to display ads on and off Facebook. You can object to this special data processing at any time by changing your Facebook settings accordingly or by simply informing us that you no longer want this processing in the future. Please use the contact options for our company’s data privacy officer for this purpose. Please be aware that the objection only applies to the device being used in each case. For further information, see the Facebook Privacy Policy and information on protecting your personal privacy.

4.1.4. Facebook Login

Under no circumstances will your IP address be merged with any other Google data. The IP addresses are anonymised so that assignment is not possible (IP masking).

You can prevent the installation of the cookies in advance by configuring your browser software accordingly or object to the continued processing of your data with the cookies by clicking on the opt-out link.

4.2. Mobile App

4.2.1. Sentry

We want to provide our users with the best possible customer experience, which is why we are constantly improving and developing our app through updates. Before each release, it is thoroughly tested. Nevertheless, not all malfunctions, for example due to programming errors, can be reliably ruled out from the start. Therefore, we use the Sentry error analysis tool from Functional Software Inc., 132 Hawthorne St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA (hereinafter “Sentry”). To improve the accessibility and technical stability of our app, we monitor system stability and identify code errors, and may automatically send the following information to Sentry in the event of a software failure:

Date and time of the error

The legal basis of the aforementioned data processing is Art. 6(1) f) of the GDPR. There is no explicit analysis for advertising purposes in this process. The information is collected anonymously, is not used for personal reasons, and is subsequently deleted. This analysis helps us to continuously improve our app and fix hidden code errors. Such processing is in our legitimate interest because the data is used solely for identifying and analysing errors.

5. Recipients outside the EU

As indicated above under 3.4 and 3.5, data may also be sent to recipients located outside the European Union or the European Economic Area. This applies in particular to the aforementioned processing of analysis and/or targeting technologies, which can result in data transmission to the servers of the service providers. Other recipients may be affiliated service providers that we need in order to provide our services, e.g. hosts, CRM tools, analytical service providers. These servers may be outside the EU, especially in the US. We make absolutely sure that these service providers guarantee data protection standards equivalent to those of the GDPR and that they comply with the applicable directives. Therefore, we only work with those service providers who are certified by the EU-US Privacy Shield. In case number C(2016) 4176), the European Commission established the suitability of this data protection level for certification in compliance with Art. 45 GDPR. The use of these certified service providers thus meets European standards for lawful data processing. In addition, we have obtained suitable contractual guarantees from all service providers based in other EU countries, which ensure compliance with these EU standards and the enforcement of the rights of affected persons, for example based on the standard contractual clauses of the European Commission.

6. Your Rights

Furthermore, you may contact the supervisory authority responsible for us, which is the Berlin Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (Berliner Beauftragten für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit), Friedrichstraße 219, 10969 Berlin.

All personal data sent by you, including your payment information, is also transmitted using the generally accepted and secure SSL (Secure Socket Layer) standard. SSL is a secure and proven standard, e.g. it is also used for online banking. You will recognize a secure SSL connection with the placement of an “s” at the end of http (i.e. https: // …) in the address bar of your browser, or with the lock icon at the bottom of the browser.

We also apply suitable technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data stored with us against manipulation, partial or complete loss, and against unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously monitored using the latest technology, and regularly adapted to the relevant risk, and improved if necessary.
