3. Categories of Data we Process

The processing of personal data is limited to data that is required to operate a functional website and platform and for the provision of content, products and services. The processing of personal data of our users is based on the purposes agreed or on a legal basis. We only collect personal data that is necessary to implement and process our tasks and services or if you provide data voluntarily. Depending on the reason and purpose of the processing, we process different data about you:

Technical Data

When you use our website and Platform, or other online offerings, we collect the IP address of your terminal device and other technical data in order to ensure the functionality and security of these offerings. This data includes logs with records of the use of our systems. We generally keep technical data for 6 months. In order to ensure the functionality of these offerings, we may also assign an individual code to you or your device (e.g., as a cookie, see Section 14). Technical data as such does not permit drawing conclusions about your identity. However, technical data may be linked with other categories of data (and potentially with your person) in relation to user accounts, registrations, access controls or the performance of a contract

Technical data includes:

• the IP address and information about the operating system of your terminal device.
• name and URL of any visited page.
• the date and time of access, GMT time difference.
• information, whether the access was successful (access status/http status code).
• amount of data transferred.
• websites that are accessed via our Platform.
• website form which any access takes place (so-called referrer URL)
• the type of browser that you use to access our online offerings.
• name of your internet provider.
• browser type and version used, and other information provided by the browser (such as geographical origin, language setting, add-ons used, screen resolution, etc.).
• logs that are created in our systems (e.g. the log of user logins to our website).

This may help us to provide an appropriate layout for the website, respectively Platform. We know through which provider you access our offerings (and therefore also the region) because of the IP address, but usually this does not tell us who you are. However, this changes for example when you create a user account, because personal data can then be linked with technical data (e.g., we can know the browser you use to access an account through our Platform).

User Account and Registration Data

Our services can only be used with a user account or a registration (e.g., purchase of NFTs, payout of Award Shares). Such data will be kept for 12 months from the date of the use of the services or the user account is closed.

If you use our O4f Platform with your created user account, we collect the following data from you:

User account data includes:

• first and last name, contact details
• user type (Athlete, Fan, Sport Agency)
• (avatar) photo
• blockchain address, wallet type and wallet address
• User-lD (please see technical data)
• Social sign-in data provided by the respective social media platform

Communication Data

When you get in contact with us via contact form, e-mail, telephone, chat, or by letter or other means of communication, we collect the data exchanged between you and us, including your contact details and the metadata of the communication. If we record telephone conversations, we will tell you specifically. If we have to confirm your identity, for example in relation to a request for information, a request for press access, etc., we collect data to identify you (e.g., a copy of an ID document). We generally keep this data for 12 months from the last exchange between us. This period may be longer where required for evidentiary purposes, to comply with legal or contractual requirements, or for technical reasons. E-Mails in personal mailboxes and written correspondence are generally kept for at least 10 years. Chats are generally stored for 2 years.

Communication data includes:

• name and contact details,
• the means, place and time of communication and usually also its contents (i.e. the contents of emails, letters, chats, etc.). This data may also include information about third parties. For identification purposes, we may also process your ID document number or a password set by you.

Master Data

Master data is the basic data that we need, in addition to contract data (see below), for the performance of our contractual and other business relationships or for marketing and promotional purposes, such as name and contact details, and information about, for example, your role and function, your bank details, your date of birth, customer history, powers of attorney, signature authorizations and declarations of consent. We process your master data if you are a customer or other business contact or work for one (e.g., as a contact person of the business partner), or because we wish to address you for our own purposes or for the purposes of a contractual partner (e.g., as part of marketing and advertising, for invitations to events, for vouchers, newsletters, etc.). We receive master data from you (e.g., when you buy something on our website), from parties you work for, or from third parties such as contractual partners, associations and address brokers, and from public sources such as public registers or the internet (websites, social media, etc.) or from activity that is publicly visible and/or accessible on blockchains (e.g., Blockchain address, information regarding purchases, sales, or transfer of NFTs, which may then be associated with other data you have provided to us). We generally keep master data for 10 years from the last exchange between us but at least from the end of the contract. This period may be longer if required for evidentiary purposes, to comply with legal or contractual requirements, or for technical reasons. For contacts used only for marketing and advertising, the period is usually much shorter, usually no more than 2 years from the last contact.

Master data is not comprehensively collected for all contact. Rather, the collection of master data depends on the individual case and purpose of the processing. In general, it may include:

• name
• address
• E-Mail address
• telephone number and other contact details
• gender
• date of birth
• nationality
• data about related persons
• websites
• social media profiles
• photos and videos
• copies of ID cards
• details of your relationship with us (e.g., customer, supplier, visitor, service provider or
• service recipient, etc.)
• details of your status, allocations, classifications and mailing lists
• details of interactions with you
• reports
• official documents (e.g., excerpts from the commercial register, permits)
• payment information (e.g., bank details, account number and credit card data)
• declarations of consent and opt-out information
• As for customers, suppliers and partners, master data also includes information about the
• role or function in the company, qualifications and information about superiors, co-workers
• and information about interactions with these persons.

Contract Data

We collect contract data in relation to the conclusion or performance of a contract, e.g. information about the products and the services provided or to be provided, as well as data from the period leading up to the conclusion of a contract, information required or used for performing a contract, and information about feedback (e.g. complaints, feedback about satisfaction, etc.). We generally collect this data from you, from contractual partners and from third parties involved in the performance of the contract, but also from third-party sources (e.g., credit information providers) and from public sources. We generally keep this data for 10 years from the last contract activity but at least from the end of the contract. This period may be longer where necessary for evidentiary purposes, to comply with legal or contractual requirements, or for technical reasons.

Contract data includes:

• information about the conclusion of the contract, about your contracts, for example, the type and date of conclusion and its duration
• the performance and administration of the contracts, for example information in relation to billing, customer service, technical assistance and the enforcement of contractual claims 
• information about deficiencies, complaints and changes of a contract as well as customer satisfaction information that we may collect for example through surveys
• financial data, such as credit information (meaning information that allows to draw conclusions about the likelihood that receivables will be paid), information about reminders and debt collection

We receive this data partly from you (e.g., when you make payments), but also from credit agencies and debt collection companies and from public sources (e.g., a commercial register).

Behavioral and preference data

Depending on our relationship with you, we try to get to know you better and to tailor our products, services and offers to you. For this purpose, we collect and process data about your behavior and preferences. We do so by evaluating information about your behavior and we may also supplement this information with third-party information, including from public sources. Based on this data, we can for example determine the likelihood that you will use certain services or behave in a certain way. The data processed for this purpose is already known to us (e.g., where and when you use our services), or we collect it by recording your behavior (for example how you navigate our website. We anonymize or delete this data when it is no longer relevant for the purposes pursued, which may be - depending on the nature of the data - between 2-3 weeks and 24 months (for product and service preferences) This period may be longer as for evidentiary purposes, to comply with legal or contractual requirements, or for technical reasons. We describe how tracking works on our website in Sections 16 et seq.

Behavioral data includes:

• For example, we may collect your location data wirelessly through unique codes that your cell phone emits or when you use our website. We will use signage at the relevant locations to tell you about the collection of such anonymous motion profiles, and we will only create personalized motion profiles with your consent.

Preference data provides information on your needs, which products or services you might be interested in. We obtain this information by analysing existing data, such as behavioral data, so that we get to know you better and can better tailor our products and services to you. Such data also contributes to a general improvement of our products and services. We combine this data with other data we obtain from third parties, such as address broker, administrative office and publicly available sources (e.g. the internet), such as information about your household size, income bracket and purchasing power, shopping behaviour, contact data of relatives, and anonymous information from statistical offices

Behavioral and preference data may be analysed on a personally identifiable basis (e.g., to show you personalized advertising), but also on a non-identifiable basis (e.g., for market research or product development). Behavioral and preference data may also be combined with other data (e.g., motion data may be used for contact tracing as part of a health protection concept)

Other Data

We also collect data from you in other situations. For example, data that may relate to you (such as files, evidence, etc.) is processed in relation to administrative or judicial proceedings. We may also collect data for health protection (e.g., as part of health protection concepts). We may obtain or create photos, videos and sound recordings in which you may be identifiable (e.g., at events, with security cameras, etc.). We may also collect data about who enters certain buildings, and when or who has access rights (including in relation to access controls, based on registration data or lists of visitors etc.), who participates in events or campaigns, e.g. competitions and who uses our infrastructure and systems and when. The retention period for this data depends on the processing purpose and is limited to what is necessary. This ranges from one or two days for many of the security cameras, to usually a few weeks in case of data for contact tracing and visitor data that is usually kept for 3 months, to several years or longer for reports about events with images.

Much of the data set out in this Section is provided to us by you, e.g. through forms, in relation to communication with us, in relation to contracts, when you use the website, etc. You are not obliged or required to disclose data to us except in individual cases, for example within the framework of binding health protection concepts (legal obligations). If you wish to enter into contracts with us or use our services, you must also provide us with certain data, in particular master data, contract data and registration data, as part of your contractual obligation under the relevant contract. When using our website, the processing of technical data cannot be avoided. If you wish to gain access to certain systems or buildings, you must also provide us with registration data. However, in the case of behavioral and preference data, you have the option of objecting or not giving consent.

We provide certain services to you only if you provide us with registration data, because we or our contractual partners wish to know who uses our services or has accepted an invitation to an event, because it is a technical requirement or because we wish to communicate with you. If you or the person you represent (e.g, your employer) wishes to enter into or perform a contract with us, we must collect master data, contract data and communication data from you, and we process technical data

if you wish to use our website or other electronic offerings for this purpose. If you do not provide us with the data necessary for the conclusion and performance of the contract, you should expect that we may refuse to conclude the contract, that you may commit a breach of contract or that we will not perform the contract. Similarly, we can only submit a response to a request from you if we process communication data and - if you communicate with us online - possibly also technical data. Also, the use of our website is not possible without us receiving technical data.

As far as it is not unlawful we also collect data from public sources (e.g., debt collection registers land registers, commercial registers, the media, or the internet including social media) or receive data from other companies within our group, from public authorities and from other third parties (such as credit agencies, address brokers, associations, contractual partners, internet analytics services, etc.).

The categories of personal data that we receive about you from third parties include, in particular, information from public registers, information that we receive in relation to administrative and legal proceedings, information in relation to your professional functions and activities (so that we can, for example, conclude and process transactions with your employer with your assistance), information about you in correspondence and meetings with third parties, credit information (where we conduct business with you in a personal capacity), information about you that persons related to you (family, advisors, legal representatives, etc.) share with us so that we can conclude or perform contracts with you or involving you (for example references, your delivery address, powers of attorney, information about compliance with legal requirements such as those relating to fraud prevention and the combating of money laundering and terrorist financing, export restrictions, information from banks insurance companies, sales and other contractual partners of us about your use or provision of services (e.g., payments, purchases, etc.), information from the media and the internet about the use or provision of services by you (e.g., payments made, purchases made, etc.), information from the media and the internet about you (where appropriate in a specific case, e.g. in the context of an application, marketing/sales, press review, etc., your address and potentially interests and other socio-demographic data (especially for marketing and research purposes) and data in relation to the use of third-party websites and online offerings where such use can be linked to you.

As regards the conclusion of a contract, we use this data to assess your creditworthiness and to open up a business relationship with you. Administering and performing the contract with you might involve third parties, such as logistic companies, advertising service providers, banks, insurance companies or credit information providers in order to provide our products and services to you.
   
• Marketing and Relationship Management
  We process your data for marketing and relationship management purposes. For example, we send personalized newsletters for products and services from us and, if applicable from selected third parties (e.g., advertising partners). Marketing and relationship management might include contacting you via e-mail, telephone or other channels for which we have contact information from you. We and, if applicable, selected third parties, only display personalized content or advertising based on your usage behavior or send e-mails for marketing purposes (e.g. newsletter) if and to the extent you give your consent to us if required under applicable law. You can object to such marketing activities or withdraw your consent at any time (please see Section 11 and 12)
  
  As regards relationship management, we may use a customer relationship management system ("CRM") to store and process your data as described in this Privacy Notice (e.g., about contact persons, products and services provided to you, interactions, interests, marketing measures, newsletters, invitations to events and other information). In order to provide you with the best products and services and to use our resources as effectively as possible we may use the CRM together with the company group.

We might also use surveillance systems, e.g. cameras for security purposes. In such a case, we will inform you at the relevant locations separately.
   
• Compliance with Law
  We process your data to comply with legal requirements, e.g. health security concepts, money laundering and terrorist financing, tax obligations etc. and we might have to request further information from you to comply with such requirements ("Know Your Customer", "KYC") or as otherwise required by law and legal authorities.
   
• Risk Management, Corporate Governance and Business Development
  We process your data as part of our risk management and corporate government in order to protect us from criminal or abusive activity. As part of our business development, we might sell businesses, parts of businesses or companies to others or acquire them from others or inter into partnerships and this might result in the exchange and processing of data based on your consent, if necessary.

 

5. Legal Basis for Processing your Data

Your Consent

Where we asked for your consent (e.g., for receiving newsletters and for personalized content or advertising based on your usage behaviour or for processing sensitive data), we process your data based on such consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by providing us written notice (email sufficient), see our contact details in Section 2. If you like to withdraw your consent for online tracking, please see Section 14. Withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing that we have carried out prior to your withdrawal, nor does it affect the processing of your data based on other processing grounds.

Where we did not ask for your consent, we process your data on other legal grounds, such as:

• a contractual obligation.
• a legal obligation.
• a vital interest of the data subject or of another natural person.
• to perform a public task.
• a legitimate interest, which includes compliance with applicable law and the marketing of our products and services, the interest in better understanding our markets and in managing and  further developing our company, including its operations, safely and efficiently.

 

6. Profiling and Automated Decision Taking

We might analyse aspects of your individual's personality, behaviour, interest and habits, make predictions or decisions about them for the purposes laid out in Section 4, e.g., to perform statistical analysis or to prevent misuse and security risks. This analysis identifies correlations between different behaviours and characteristics to create profiles for individuals. For example, we may use profiling to determine products or services you might be interested in. We may also use profiling to assess your creditworthiness. We do not use profiling that can produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you without human review.

In certain circumstances, automated decision taking might be necessary for reasons of efficiency and consistency. In such cases, we will inform you accordingly and take the measures required by applicable law.

Integration of YouTube videos

YouTube stores your data as user profiles and uses them for purposes of advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of its website.

Our Appearance on Social Networks
We are present on the following social media platforms: e.g. Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Medium Discord and collect data about you as described in Section 3 and below. We receive this data from you and the platforms, when you enter into contact with us via our online presence (e.g. when you communicate with us, comment on our content or visit our presence).

At the same time, the platforms evaluate your use of our online presence and link this data with other data about you known to the platforms (e.g., about your behaviour and preferences). They also process this data for their own purposes under their own responsibility, in particular for marketing and market research purposes (e.g., to personalize advertising) and to control their platform (e.g., which content they show to you). This also happens, if you do not have a profile on the social media platform.

We process this data for the purposes described in Section 4, in particular for communication marketing purposes and market research. You will find information on the legal basis in Section 5.

We would like to point out that you use our presence on social media platforms and their functions or your own responsibility. This applies, in particular to the use of interactive functions (e.g., commenting sharing, rating).

The individual data processing activities and their scope differ depending on the social media provider. For details about the collection and storage of your personal data and about the type, scope and purpose of its use by the social media provider, please refer to the privacy policy of the social media provider:

The data collected about you in this context is processed by the platforms and may be transferred to countries outside the European Union, in particular the USA, which is considered not to provide adequate data protection from a Swiss/EU perspective. Therefore, we have agreed to so-called standard data protection clauses (SCCs) with the social media providers in order to ensure compliance with an appropriate level of data protection in third countries.

We do not know how the social media platforms use the data from your visit to our account and interaction with our posts for their own purposes, how long this data is stored and whether data is passed on to third parties. The data processing may differ depending on whether you are registered and logged in to the social network or visit the site as a non-registered and/or non-logged-in user. When you access a post or the account, the IP address assigned to your terminal device is transmitted to the provider of the social media platform. If you are currently logged in as a user, a cookie on your end device can be used to track how you have moved around the network. Buttons embedded in websites enable the platforms to record your visits to these website pages and assign them to your respective profile. Based on this data, content or advertising can be offered tailored to you. If you wish to avoid this, you should log out or deactivate the "stay logged in" function, delete the cookies on your device and restart your browser.

To exercise your data subject rights, you can contact both, us or the provider of the social media platform. To the extent that one party is not responsible for responding or must obtain the information from the other party, we or the provider will then forward your request to the respective partner. Please contact the provider of the social media platform directly for questions about profiling, processing of your data when using the website. For questions about the processing of your interaction with us on our site, write to the contact details provided by us above.

For further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the social media platform, please review the privacy notices of these social media platforms, where you will also receive further information about your rights and about setting options for protecting your privacy.

 

9. Transfer of Data Abroad

As we have explained in Section 7, we disclose data to other parties, not all of them located in Switzerland. Your data may be processed in the European Economic Area (EEA) and in exceptional circumstances also in countries outside the EEA and around the world, which includes countries that do not provide the same level of data protection as Switzerland or the EEA and are not recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection. We only transfer data to these countries when it is necessary for the performance of a contract or for the exercise or defence of legal claims, or if such transfer is based on your explicit consent or subject to safeguards that assure the protection of your data, such as the European Commission approved standard contractual clauses.

 

10. How Long We Keep your Personal Data

We only process your data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of complying with legal retention requirements and where required to assert or defend against legal claims, until the end of the relevant retention period or until the claims in question have been settled.

However, depending on the purpose of these cookies, we may ask for your express prior consent before they are used. You can access your current settings by clicking on the "Change Your Cookies" - button below and/or at our website and you can withdraw your consent under the same link at any time.

• Necessary Cookies
  Necessary cookies are necessary for the functioning of the website or for certain features. They make the use of our website more pleasant for you. For example, they help make a website usable by enabling basic functions such as page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. They also ensure that you can move between pages without losing information that was entered in a form and that you stay logged in. These cookies exist temporarily only ("session cookies"). The session cookies are automatically deleted after leaving our pages. If you block them, the website may not work properly. Other cookies are necessary for the server to store options or information (which you have entered) beyond a session (i.e. a visit to the website) if you use this function (e.g., language settings, consents, automatic login functionality, etc.). These cookies have an expiration date of up to 12 months. The legal basis for such cookies is our legitimate interest according to provide you with all functions of our website. A list of necessary cookies is provided in our Consent Management Tool.
   
• Performance Cookies
  In order to optimize our website and related offers and to better adapt them to the needs of the users, we use cookies to record and analyze the use of our website, potentially beyond one session, We use third-party analytics services for this purpose that are listed below (see Section 15 "Monitoring Tools"). For example, we analyze which page a user accesses most often and whether error messages are displayed. These cookies do not store any information beyond this. They are used exclusively to increase user-friendliness and to tailor websites more specifically to the user. Before we use such cookies, we ask for your express prior consent. You can withdraw consent at any time through the cookie settings. Performance cookies also have an expiration date of up to 12 months. Details can be found on the websites of the third-party providers specified in our Consent Management Tool.
   
• Marketing Cookies
  We and our advertising partners have an interest in targeting advertising as precisely as possible, i.e. only showing it to those we wish to address. For this purpose, we and our advertising partners - if you consent - use cookies that can record the content that has been accessed or the contracts that have been concluded. This allows us to optimize our content (see Section 15 "Monitoring Tools") and it allows us and our advertising partners to display advertisements that we think will interest you on our website, but also on other websites that display advertisements from us or our advertising partners (see Section 17 "Tracking Tools"). If you consent to the use of these cookies, you will be shown related advertisements. If you do not consent to them, you will not see less advertisements, but simply any other advertisement.

16. Tracking Tools

Based on your consent we use tracking tools to ensure a tailored design and the continuous optimization of our website. We also use the following tracking tools to statistically record the use of our website and evaluate it for the purpose of optimizing the content we show you:

• Google Analytics
  Google Ireland (based in Ireland) is our provider of “Google Analytics" and acts as our processor. Google Ireland relies on Google LLLC (based in the USA) as a processor for its services (both "Google”). Google uses performance cookies (see above) to track the behavior of visitors to our website (duration, frequency of pages viewed, geographic origin of access, etc.) and compiles reports for us on the use of our website on this basis. We have configured the service so that the IP addresses of visitors are shortened by Google in Europe before being forwarded to the US and thus cannot be traced. We have turned off the "Data Forwarding" and "Signals" settings. Although we can assume that the information we share with Google is not personal data for Google, it is possible that Google can draw conclusions about the identity of visitors from this data for its own purposes, create personal profiles and link this data to the Google accounts of these persons. If you consent to the use of Google Analytics, you explicitly agree to such processing, which also includes the transfer of personal data (in particular usage data for the website and app, device information and individual IDs) to the US and other countries not offering adequate data protection from a Swiss/EU perspective. Information on the data protection of Google Analytics can be found here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245 and if you have a Google account, you can find further details on processing by Google here: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner sites?hl=de.
